Gov. Warmers requirement in con-
nection with the coming encampment
of the Michigan state troops, that the
officers and the men In the ranks shall
have the same experience so far as their
boarding arrangements are concerned,
is worthy of commentator. There
was time when these annual en-
campments were principally annual
picnics at state expense, but no such
criticism is now deserved Their better
purpose as a season of drill and disci-
pline is now insisted upon, while the
Objectionable features at one time ac-
companying state encampments have

for the better requirements which pro-
vide these better results is due to

The statement made by the New
York World, as the result of investi-
cations made in every state in the
union, that Michigan is one of only
eleven states in which no state scan
dial or grating scheme exists, is GER
tainly true so far as it relates to the
state government of Michigan and
its present state administration. Such
a statement could hardly be specifically
made in behalf of the cities of Detroit
and Grand Rapids, but fortunately the
state of Michigan is not responsible for
conditions existing in these cities.

that a desire to display his gold buttons
after all has more to do with the West

other one thing. When you are about to
sit down remember that you still carry
that basket of eggs upon your head and
you will find yourself sinking gently and
gracefully into your chair, instead OF
just launching into it. The same little
bit Of mental science will work wonders
in the matter of climbing stairs. One

A BEAUTIFUL NECK.
Can Be Obtained by Persisting in
Certain Exercises and Bathing
with Use of. Olive Oil Soap.

A beautiful neck is not a difficult
thing to obtain if one is willing to work
for it, says the American Queen, and as
a beautiful neck makes its possessor
look fairer and younger than any other
beautifying feature, it is something
worth working for Develop the mus
cles of the neck by the following gym
nastic exercises, and developers and
skin foods of various kinds can all be
dispensed with: % Slowly but firmly
bend the neck forward until the chin
nearly touches the neck; then gradually
raise the head. (2) Slowly but firmly
bend the head backward as far as Won
comfortably can. Repeat this move
ment 20 times. (3) Bend the head side
ways to right 20 times, and to the left
the same number of times "a Roll
the head slowly to the right. then to the
left, 20 times, and afterWard battle the
neck in warm water and olive oil soar
and rub it firmly but gently with soft
towel. If the neck is very thin little
cream rubbed in at this time will hasten
matters, and if the treatment be per-
sisted in for six or eight weeks the i'm
provement in the appearance of the neck
will be so apparent that the treatment
will not be discarded until a beautiful
white neck is the reward.

The men who have been taught to
spend money are being replaced by
those who have been taught to make
money, and it is one of the most cruel
circumstances of the situation that
many of the former are earning their
livelihood by teaching the latter to live
in luxury. These thoughts have beer

Sir: | inclose my card but not for

herited a large estate in the midland
counties, which have been in the posses
sion Of the family for several centuries.
The extravaganza Of my father, agrl-
cultural depression, mismanagement
and large family made it necessary for
him to sell the estate, together with ali
the contents of the house. The money

Concerning Colors.

Colors, like flowers, have a meaning
of their own. White signifies purity,
faith, joy and life; red, the ruby, typi-
fes fire, love and royalty; blue, the
sapphire, expresses Heaven, truth, con-
staney and fidelity; yellow represents
the sun, marriage and faithfulness,
green is the color Of hope and victory;
violet is the hue Of passion ard suffer
ing; purple and scarlet are for holy
things and black is the attendant of
despair, earthliness, mourning and
death.

THE JUICE OF A LEMON.

ever invented, says the American
Queen.
Glycerine and lemon juice, half and
half, on a bit of absorbent cotton is the
best thing in the world wherewith to
moisten the lips and tongue of fever
parched patient.
A few drops of lemon juice in plain
water is an excellent tooth wash. 1t
not only removes the tartar, but sweet

A teaspoonful of the juice in small
cup of black coffee will almost certainly
relieve a bilious headache.
The finest of manicure acids is made

Lemon juice and salt will remove rust
stains from linen without injury to the
fabric. Wet the stains with the mixture
and put the article in the sun. Two or
three applications may be necessary if
the stain is of long standing, but the
remedy never fails.
Lemon juice (outward applications)
