How to Put On Gloves.

Open and turn back the gloves to
the thumb and powder lightly. Put
the fingers in their places, not the
thumb, and carefully work them on
with the first finger and thumb of
the other hand until they are quite
down; never press between the fin
gers. Pass the thumb into its place
with care and work on as the fingers.
Turn back the glove and slide it over
the hand and wrist, never pinching
the kid, and work the glove into
proper place by means of the light
est pressure, always allowing the kid
to slide between the fingers. In fin
ishing care should be taken in fas'
tening the first button.

Immense Leaves of Palm.

The palm family bears longer
leaves than any other known tree.
The Inaga palm, growing on the
banks of the Amazon, has leaves
(which reach from 35 to SO feet in
length, and 10 to IL feet in breadth
Specimens of the talepot palm, a ma
tive of Ceylon, has been met with 20
feet long and IS feet broad. These
leaves are used by the natives to
make tents, and, thus employed, they
make very efficient shelters from rain
The leaves of the double cocoanut
palm are often 30 feet long and sew
eral wide. The leaves of the canni-
bal tree of Australia resemble broad
planks and are frequently 10 feet
long, 20 inches broad and III feet
thick at the base. These boardlike
leaves all shoot out at the top and
hang down so as to form a sort OF
umbrella around, the stem. The .um-
brella tree of Ceylon has leaves OF
such enormous size that single one
will cover from Is to 20 men, and
often serves as a canopy to a boat,
or a tent for soldiers. A specimen
leaf taken to England measured 30
feet round.

THE WHITE RIVER COUNTRY.

In the opinion of one who has trav-
eled much and observed closely, the
most truly and rightfully contented
people in the United States to-day are
the small landowners in what is
known as the Upper White River Coun-
try, anywhere from Newport, Ark, to
Carthage, Mo. They are contented be-
cause their surroundings are ideal and,
until recently, the great, uneasy, dis
quieting world, with it's artificial needs
and inadequate compensations, has
been to them but little more tangible
than dream. Here, still existent,
and by reason Of their very rarity at
this day and time more delectable
than in the past, are the conditions
which have ever appealed with ire
sistible force to the independent-spir-
tied Anglo-SaXon. Every man Is the
supreme ruler of his own little prin-
cipality; acknowledging no master
save the law-and possibly his fem
mime helpmeet; cringing to no en-
ployer; asking no favors from the

able growth common to the north
temperate zone, the surrounding for
ests of valuable woods and the under
lying stratas of precious minerals, the
springs and streams of translucent
purity on every hand, the wealth of
fish and game at his very door, such as
less favored mortals annually travel
hundreds Of miles to find. He is con-
tented but small credit is his for that,
for how could he well be otherwise
than content? 1t is sad that such
idealistic conditions may not con-
tinue, but 1t is written that the pres
ent possessors of this favored land
must soon give place to others more
appreciative of its incompatible fea-
lures. A railroad has recently cut its
way through the best of this region,
and the unaccustomed rustic of bank
notes and chink of coin will eventually
tempt the hill-dweller to part with his
birthright So it has always been in
the worlds history-the good things
that are ours without price invariably
pass from our hands before we come
to understand their value. The White
River country will shortly be discov-
cred anew by a class of immigrants
better capable of judging its POSSIBLE
ities-the men who seek modest
homes where the "lay of the land
will effectually prevent crowdng by
too close neighbors, where their cat
tie can fatten on free range, where
the wealth of forest and mine awaits
development by intelligent workers,
and where the game and fish offer en-
joyable recreation to all who have
leisure and inclination for sport.

Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome


Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome.
DR.. Herman Reinbold, the expert
German chemist, in recent official
report concerning Baking Powders,
declares that pure alum baking pow
der is better and less injurious than
the so-called cream of tartar powders
He says that If the quantity Of alum
contained in sufficient quantity of
baking powder for batch of bread or
cakes for an ordinary family, be con-
centrated to one mouthful of food,
and taken into the stomach of any
one person, no matter how delicate,
it could do no harm. On the contrary,
alum is wholesome in proper quanti-
ties. This is undoubtedly the reason
the State of Missouri quickly repealed
a law that prohibited the manufacture
of the most wholesome of all baking
powders. So much for Alum Baking
Powders.
