When Woman Isn't Young.

The report is that local religious
institution which is for young wom-
en-" has drawn the deadline of youth
at So. Every woman over that age
will be marked % and requested to
skiddoo. This is painful. II is unkind.
What is worse. it is impracticable. We
are glad the task is to be performed
by women. No man nor set of men
would ever have dared tackle such a
probeul-not they. This is simply
another example OF woman's inhu-
manity to woman.
We have been told for many ages
that a woman IS as old as she looks
and man is as old as he feels. Just
now. we say it with regret. most wom-
en- look like so and most men feel like
Methuselah. But the general rule
seems a good one. It is plain, un-
palatable fact that women will deceive
as to their age as long as possible and
then openly lie about 1t. There are
many women who were born during
the ravages of the civil war who still
claim sweetly to be in the thirties.

as food.
About 80 years ago Prof. Brewer

had about reached the limit of its

With regard to horses in general
Prof. Brewer said that they are less

and that the only thing which prevents
the use of the flesh in this country is
prejudice and lack of knowledge of its

Cure of Nervous Habits in Children

Cure of Nervous Habits in Children.
Curing the nervous habits or
tricks" of children is one of the most
lnsistent problems facing parents.
The problem is made particularly diff
ficult because the habits come so
quietly that we find them established
before we have really noticed them.
Some habits are caused by disordered
nerves. and in such case the doctor
must be consulted. Twitching OF the
face or limbs, opening of the mouth.
blinking OF the eyes, hesitation of
speech. are all indications that some
thing is wrong. and no child must be
punished for them. Indeed, mere pun
ishment never does any good either to
the tricks dependent on bad health or
on those of imitation. Defective sight
is :ae cause OF many so-calieI tricks.
4 c&ild whose vision Is faulty screws
up Sis eyes or scowls in his e1orts to
aduut his powers OF sight Ia such a
case an optician or oculist auuld be
called in and the sight tested y bad
habit is simply repeated action. and it
Is cnly by persistently stopping it
that one can hope to eradicate it.

A number of officers and descend

fashioned into a homely agricultural

being a plow, took the shape OF the
ordinary field cultivator.

Cut out hot cream of tartar bis
cult used to be a common, everyday
remark among physicians when dis
cussing items of diet for their pa

cults are never mentioned in this re-

who to-day continue to use the old

wonder why they are always ailing.

to look dainty as a sort of finish to
her gown.
The question of what to weac at
the throat is one which worries every
woman under the sun. The stock has
undoubtedly brought on many a case
Of nervous prostration. What shall
wear around my neck?" is some
thing which every woman asks her
self at least once a day.
The problem is partially solved by
the little stiff linen collar which
comes this year in wide variet, as
well as in varying height 1t is en-
broid Tered and buttoned around The
throat with small buttons and cor
responding button holes. This serves
as a sort of foundation for the stock
which can be fastened over it.
There is really quite a choice for
the woman who goes in for a variety

HEALTH AND BEAUTY NOTES.

Goggles are induced by straiDing
the eyes.
Don't use soda when shampoCing
the hair Eggs and hot water are all
you need
To keep the hair fluffy and free
from oil give yourself a good thor
ough shampoo every two weeks.
Thin arms should be washed twice
day with fine lather OF soap,
rinsed well, dried thoroughly and
then rubbed vigorously. This treat
ment will bring the pores into action
ana induce a healthy condition Of
the skin.
One of the most delightful sachet
powders is made by combining 5
cents worth of powdered orris root
with . cents worth each Of oil OF
cloves and oil of lavender. Place in
small bag of paper or silk in the
dresser drawers.
Here is a remedy for caIIoused
feet: Salicylic acid, 1 dram; cocaine,
grains; colIodion, u ounce. Paint
over the corn or bunion twice a day
and scrape away the superficial
growth at the END of three or four
days.
Wrinkles can easily be overcome
when they first appear. After they
become furrows and gullies it is a
difficult matter to erase them. The
newest and best complexion treat
ments are a combination of scientific
massage and electricity.
When the hands are sore and blis-
tered wash them in fresh buttermilk
and allow it to dry on the skin, as
it aids in whitening it. Slices of raw
cucumber, cut thick, peel left on. may
be bound on sunburned fingers at
night and do wonderful work in re-
storing the natural color.
