system of face treatment. Anyhow, the fact remains that middle age is at a discount in the twentieth century.
 King Edwards reign ilas brought us many new things. and among others the cult of the gray-haired beauty. For in these days gray hairs are apt to arrive in early middle age--indeed, in some case, when a woman is at the zenth of her youth and loreli- ness. In fact, young face framed in white hair has a peculiar and very piquant fascination. But it must be admitted that the bianched brunette gets the innings. Her dark eyes and vivid coloring tone in well with gray hair and give the poudre effect, so successful
 Taste in dress is on the up grade and has done much for gray hair and also for the middle aged sister, hood Women who have passed their first youth are no longer doomed to wear black. brown or some other scmbTe coloring White is now as much used by mothers and grand mothers as by youthful debutantes; and royal ladies who have reached middle life show a marked fondness for white and cream color This is specially noticeable in the case of [ Queen Alexandra and of her sister the DoWager Empress of Russia Gray l is good to the white haired woman and she often wears it to perfection Pink Is also kind to her, and these soft shades combine charmingly.

KEEPER OF LIGHTS Some of the Multifarious Du- ties That Keep Them
 Busy. >"t ON DUTY AT ALL HOURS The Compensation Received by These Members of Government 
 Service.

People generally have strange ideas about the kind of life the keeper of @ light house lives. The majority pro- bably have the idea that it is one of monotonous idleness, Such, however, is exactly the opposite of what it really is--one of continuous toll and care.
 The United States probably has as good light house system as any coun try on earth, but it is hampered by the fact that there is d scarcity of men desirious of entering into it because of the hard work.
 The hours are long, if one can use the term 'hours for light keeper is always on duty The routine work of keeping the station" ship-shapN scrub ping the paint. keeping the brass of the lantern and fog signals bright as a new dollar, and doing all kinds of carpentering and painting to keep the station in repair, takes all the daylight time. At night the two keepers divide their time into watches and tend the light and watch for fog. Fog is the lighthouse mans continual dread, The coastwise mariner has no guide except the discordant horns and bells that are sounded when the mist settles over the water. The apparatus has to be "set up'' and started in a hurry and this is not so easy as it sounds. The kerosine combustion engines that are used often act badly and even good mechanic IS put at his wits end
 All repairs to the station have to be done by the keepers. Each year they have to paint the building inside and out The government furnishes an ex, cellent set of tools for doing the work and plenty of material, but it means a lot to the keepers to find time to do all this extra labor as well as keep up the routine Time off is obtained. with in certain limits, by mutual arrange ments between the two keepers Long CT periods of absence can only be ob- tained by making written application to the inspector of the district.
 The United States demands men in prime of life for this service They must bel between the ages of eighteen and forty and pass a civil service eX- animation to enter the service. This IS quite a contrast to some foreign coun- tries where the lighthouses are given disable seaman. The examination Is rather technical and requires the applicant to show that he has had ex- perience in handling steam and hot air engines, navigation of steam vessels and considerable mechanical ability The pay ranges from s4so to s1,ooo q year depending upon the kind of light the man has charge of, The higher figure is only paid at a few first class stations like Thatcher's Isl- , and, The Graves and Navesink High lands. The keepers generally get $50 a month and the assistant $35 The two stations in New Haven harbor are good paying ones, the best in this To- cality. the keepers getting s56.00 and the assistants $42.9l. The extra pay over other local stations being for tending the post lanterns on the breakwaters.

FOOD FOR CAME BIRDS.
John E. Bassctt Has It for Disfribu-

Arrangements have been made by the State Game and Fish commissioners with John E. Bassett, to furnish food for the game birds free of charge. The unusually open winter has made it comparatively easy for the birds to find food for themselves. but the severe storm of yesterday promises hard times for the quail and other game birds should the weather continue, and they will starve unless cared for by means such as have been provided for them
 All sportsmen who are interested and whoi will distribute it for the benefit Of the feathered tribe will be furnished with food free of charge by applying for 1t at John F. Bassett's gun store, No. Church street.
