COPPER SAFE FROM LIGHTNING.
Belief Firmly Held in Many Parts Of

"This matter Of superstitions Is a
queer thing" said the man as he care

for even those of us who are skeptics
have at least one superstitious failing,
and mine is walking und err ladders.
In the country this summer l met
a new~one, which was firmly believed
in by several farmers, and that was
that a thunder storm never passed
over a copper mine or copper vein.
The old fellow who told me about it
pointed out again and again that al
though black clouds might roll up and
lightning fash, the storm always went
around a certain spot in his farm.
Such actions on the part of a thun-
der storm could mean but one thing,
he said-that there was a copper vein
there. So sure was he Of it, that he
was putting by a little each year to
have the spot investigated to see il
there was copper enough in it to

PROPER USES OF POWDER.
Protection to the Skin and a Means
of Natural Beauty.

There are ome who do not believe
in the use of powder. Why? Well,
they were not brought up" to use it,
and they hold to the biased opinion
that the habit is foolish and tawdry
and damaging to the cuticle." This
kind of reasoning went out of fashion
when it was discovered that powder is
a protection to the skin and a means
of natural beauty as we'll. To protect
the skin from the ravages of temper
allure means the preservation of nat
ural beauty-see?
Use a first-rate brand of powder.
Don't use the sort made pernicious by
minerals that fairly corrode the skin.
Get a brand that Is finely bolted and
has a disinfectant quality along with
a refreshing influence. Use plenty OF
1t, but not too much.
Before you go into the weather put
cold cream on your face. Gently rub
the ream into the skin. Then wipe
the cream off-after which apply the
powder with a soft cloth or piece OF
chamois. The powder puff is a good
thing to use when you want to re-
fresh the face. But when you are pre-
pairing it to fare into the weather, use
the cloth or channels.
Always remove powder from the
face at night before you retire. You
can not wipe powder off with a damp
cloth, nor can you wash it off with
cold water. Give the face a bath with
a suds made of water and a fine toilet
soap. Then rinse all the soap off the
cuticle.
The application of cold cream before
you retire is another story.-Chicago

Tricks of Smuuqiers.

Double bottomed bottles and other
vessels are common contrivances for
smugglers. In order not to awaken
suspicion they are usually filled with
some beverage, beer or wine, and this
is duly declared by the man in charge
of the vehicle in which they are car
ried. At the present time, however,
the officers are never deceived by the
double bottomed bottles, nor, for that
matter, by the hollow horse collar,
which at one time was a favorite dodge
for the alcohol smuggler.

Lower Animals in Sickness.

Man might often take from the low
er animals a lesson as to the care OF
himself when i'll. All sorts of animals
suffering from fever eat little; lie
quiet In dark, airy places, and drink
quantities of water. When a dog loses
his appetite he knows where to find
dog grass, which acts as a purgative
and emetic. Sheep and cows, when
Ill, seek certain herbs. Any animal
suffering from chronic rheumatism
keeps as far as possible from the
sun. If a chimpanzee be wounded he
has been seen to stop the bleeding by
a plaster of chewed-up leaves and
grass.

Patagonia, and certain gazelles of the

the treatment did me no good. Finally

entering into It's composition. This fact
alone places DIR. Plerce's Family Medi-

cannot be classed with patent or secret
medicines because they are neither. This
is why so many unprejudiced physicians
prescribe them and recommend them to
their patients. They know what they

The further fact that neither DR..

Many years ago, DR.. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glyccrine, OF proper
strength, is a better solvent and preserv-
alive OF the medicinal principles resid-
Ing In our indigenous, or native, medi-

more, that IL possesses valuable medicinal
properties Of its own, being demulcent

antiferment.
Neither of the above medicines con-

Not only do physicians prescribe the
