It ended in an agreement to meet the
next night, and if any man in the
rarty mentioned the weather he was

to be expended for refreshments some
time when the temperature had low
cred The genial proprietor of the
billiard parlOr was to record and col
lect the fines.
The first man who made his ap-
pearance on the next evening was a
clerk in the interior department and
the first words he uttered were:
Great Scott. but ain't this scorch-
er?' And down on a little book that
was in readiness the boss of the place
recorded a fine Of so cents against
him. One of them remarked to the
other: 'T must cool off. S'pose we
take gin rickey. They're good in
hot weather and this is the hottest
day I ever struck

took his station at window and

had to record his "kick." II knew a
man once who committed suicide on
account of the heat he said. "If
there was ever a day when one could
be justified in taking his life on such
an account it's just such weather as
we've had to endure today" Then
the little fine book showed a financial
exhibit of two dollars.

man. 81 was in southern Arizona on
a surveying expedition on one hot sea
son and never suffered as much from
the heat as l have today" 1t did't take
long to gather in that three dollars for
refreshments. In the meantime the
man who owned the place had never
opened his mouth. He attended strict

The so.called electric rollers are
lot electric unless attached to bat
terry. Just how they may reduce flesh
is not plain to see. The only way to
reduce tissue without injury to the
health is to linsit the diet and take
great deal of outdoor exercise.
Avoid fat meats. rich broths, pastries.
sweets, potatoes and butter. Live
principally on lean meats, broiled
fish, green vegetables and fresh fruit.
Take salted toast instead of bread and
butter, and have your tea and coffee
clear Drink very little water, for
that is fattening. Sleep not more than
seven hours every night. The Vau-
caire remedy can be made up without
the sirup, and then will develop the
lust only, and no other part of the
body

When arranging your coiffure brush

To keep hlackheads from forming
use the complexion brush suggested
heretofore. When blac1lheads are ex
treme}y bad and ordinary home treat
ion specialist and have the hydro
vacu used. This is little arrangement
of a silver cup, which. when it passes
over the face. permits water to flow
onto the surface. and then away,
gathering with 1t all the little dust
deposits. The treatment is followed
by scientific massage and the use of
antiseptics. When blackheads are ex-
tremely large, they must be pressed
out with comedone extractor.
The correct complexion brush is not
OF rubber, but is of firm, even bristles.
The brush should be used with soap
and water every night, the suds be-
ing rinsed away with warm water,
then with cold, the surface of the skin
ulltu, anu Clclle iudIuulSc VI orange
flower skin food rubbed in with the
finger tips. When the right brush is
used and cream applied the most
sensitive complexion will not be ir-
ritated. A thousand compilations are
ruined by uncleanliness where one is
irritated by excessive scrubbing. The
brush serves several purposes. It not
only dislodges sebaceous deposits and
dust from the pores, but the friction
stirs up circulation and does for the
glands of the face what exercise does
for the muscles of the body. A good
brush will cost you 81 or 75 cents, ac-
cording to size.

The statement made in the
Pittsburg Dispatch that the far
mers Of this State are paid S.
100000 a year for rental for gas
wells is silly. 1t is estimated there
are 1000 gas wells in this State.
A high average for rental per an
mum for a gas well would be $500
and 100000 at this rate would
pay rental on 5000 wells, which
is at least 5000 more wells than
we have in the State. All of this
hurrah in the Dispatch is caused
BY our Legislature proposing to
enact a law to prevent gas from
being forced out Of this State with
immense gas pumps. If we can
keep the gas here manufacturing
plants will be located in the State
to use up this cheap and splendid
fuel. The Standard Oil company
is opposing the bill, and we have
no doubt about that company be-
ing able to defeat it. It's wise
measure, and is only self-protec-
ton. IF we could prevent the
Standard from pumping the gas
away from our State we would
have home gas companies by the
dozen and the result would be a
strong competition and much
higher gas rentals. We wonder
how much per inch the Standard
Oil company pays the Pittsburg
Dispatch for the reading notices
it is publishing against this pro-
nosed legislation' We will VEN
ture the prediction the Dispatch
10 we'll paid for each item it pub
fishes.

King Edward is becoming an in
seterate coffee drinker. Wherever
he goes his Egyptian coffee maker,
Emin Abraham, follows with his
little coffee mill and after luncheon
and dinner prepares a special brew
for his majesty and the fortunate
few who are privileged to taste it.
Emin is able to hold this little mill
in his hands when grinding the ber-
ries, a particular kind, and the cof-
fee is served in very small cups
which have almost the appearance
of egg cups. It is of course served
by Emin himself in oil the glory Of
oriental drapery. The people who
have tasted the kings coffee are
