FRISCO SEES
HOPE AHEAD
Flames Are Now Practi-
cally Under
Control

San Francisco, April 2O.-San Fran
today It's time of overwhelming dis
aster and peril Is ended and the future
is subject Of general consideration.
The fire is practically under control.
A clear sky over the Mission district
shows the fire there has been extin-
guished. The spread Of the flames
toward the western addition. the best
part Of city remaining, has been stayed
and only that portion OF the confiagra-
tion which demands the attention Of
from the Mob hill section down to the
northwestern part of the water front.
Make Use Of Gun Cotton.
In the western addition all danger
was averted at $3.50 o'clock this morn
ing by the use OF gun cotton. dynamite
and two streams Of water. The ex-
plosives were handled by the chief
gunner of the Mare Island navy yard,
and his accomplishments proved him
to be a master Of his profession.
Baking 5000 Loavss.
Work of relief was started early to-
day. A big bakery In the saved district
started it's fire and 5000 loaves Of bread
will be baked before night.
Thousands of people stood in line
this morning before the California
street bakery. The police and military
were present In force and each person
was allowed only one loaf.
The homeless people in the parks and
the vacant lots will be provided for
today as speedily as possible.
Suffering 10 lndsseribabIs.
The destitution and suffering is In
| describable. Women and children who
had comfortable, happy homes a few
days ago slept last night, II sleep came
at all, on hay on the wharves. on sand
lots near North beach. Some of them
were under little tents made Of sheet
ing which poorly protected them from
the chilling ocean winds.
The people in the parks are possibly
better provided in the matter of shelter
for they left their homes better pre-
pared.
Break Open the Stores.
Instructions were issued by Mayor
Schitz today to break every store
containing provision and to distribut,
them to the waiting Thousands undel

The Turquoise Land.

Sinai was known as the turquoise
land" in very ancient times. and Dr.
Flinders Petrie believes that it was
the first mining center in the world.
In his book on the subject DIR. Petrie
tells of the various expeditions sent to
Sina! by the Egyptian government. At
the head of the party was the com
mander," or bearer of the seal of the
god" the pharaoh. The official staff
consisted of masters of the house of
metals, or assayers, scribes and sec
retarieS. to make inventories of the
output of the mines. Even more mod
ern We're the .devisers of metals" or
prospectors The working staff CON
sisted of miners and their assistants.
The commissariat had cooks, bread
bakers, water carriers and even a doc
tor attached. The mines could only be
worked for Il certain period, from
January to May, which is exactly the
best period for archaeological work in
Sinai today. The miners lived in camps,
and the so called forts and camps
We're really miners villages.

OLD scRAPBooKs.
They Sometimes Prove Serious
Menace to Health,

Old scrapbooks are menace to
health. For several reasons they har-
Dor more dust than any other old books.
Usually the pages are pasted on both
sides, making them thick and uneven,
They are broad, and their ornate bind
ings are seldom behind glass doors, but
easily accessible on tables and shelves.
After turning over the pages, sneezing.
head colds and hay fever have often
resulted without the cause being sus.
pected. In our library was scrap.

1853 to 1892. Another was filled with
newspaper clippings of the war be-
tween the states. They We're priced
and frequently read, but colds almost
invariably followed. We sent them to
bindery to be fumigated and rebound.
To prevent in great measure this con.
dition. use carboliZed paste, paste
only on one side of the page. keep them
behind glass and provide them with
oil paper covers. Do not let this ad.

BEAUTY AxIoMs.

A bad tempered woman can never be
beautiful.
Harmony in dress pleases more eyes
than costly gewgaws.
Cultivate graciousness, for it is na.
lures greatest beautitier.
Daintiness has come to be the mod
ern woman's chief charm.
If you have no thought for yourself,
remember that others admire beauty.
Beauty may be only skin deep. but II
has more value than most kinds Of
plating.
Things which beautify an old woman
may detract from the appearance Of
the young girl.
Don't wait until tomorrow to think
of the graceful form and comedy face,
for by that time middle age settles and
formidable crows feet will be with you
to stay.
No woman need lack some kind OF
beauty. If nature has denied her Il
beautiful face, she can make up for II;
by acquiring a wonderful grace of form
or such beautiful hands that she can be-
the envy OF her set.-Pilgrim.

Table Manners.

Parents, even in humble cottags
home, should pay attention to the con-
duct and manners of their children
at mealtimes. They cannot tell what
position they will ill in after life. and
Il man or woman who is ignorant of the
most simple laws of table etiquette is
terribly handicapped. Were the parents
to reprove the child who conveys its
food to its mouth with Il knife. who
drinks its tea from the saucer or who
sticks its elbows out at right angles.
the lesson so taught would never be
forgotten. There is Il certain amount
of freedom at the family table, whers
one scarcely expects to find the cere-
monious department of set dinner
party. But even in the home there are
minor rules and observances which
should always be followed The boy
or girl on whose mind they are ini-
pressed at an early age will never lose
them. and then. after years of strug-
giles. it may be. the manners that
make the man" will be their chief pass
port into the circle of their new ac-
quaintances.

pick as many as he wanted. His ball

Willie had no heart for any of these at

Yet the old maid is not entirely
wrong, either. There are some men
