He is always accusing me of being out
with other fellows when l am not at
all, and he says he has to keep a close
watch on me. He also says l dress SO
that people will look at me on the
street and that I fall in love with every

fine and takes back all the mean things
he says when he is angry, and then he
always says that he loves me so much

l think you chances of happiness
are rather doubtful, unless the dispo-
sition of your friend undergoes a re-
markable change. If you are not en-
gagged and do not think too much of
him, I would advise you to discontinue
the friendship. If you really love him
the best thing to do is to tell him
plainly just what you think of his
conduct. Let him know that you do
not intend to stand 1t. He will prob
ably change his attitude.

OUR CORNER
WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

nACKED away In a a OIL the
House of Parliament, In London
are carefully preserved a soho
bar of bronze and a block of platinum
Both are in cases, but the platinum Is
guarded with special care. 1t Is IN
closed in a box of silver-gilt, which is
itself Enclosed in a case of bronze.
Outside of the bronze case are other
cases of mahogany, lead and oak, ana
the block of platinum itself Is wrapped
in a peculiar kind of paper containing
no silica, so as to provide against any
kind Of decomposition.
Why all this great care, you ask? Be-
cause that block of platinum weighs ex-
actly one pound, and is the English Of
fetal standard of weights. The bar OF
bronze is the standard of measure, for
It has the yard length, thirty-six inches,
marked off on 1t. the whole bar being
thirty-eight inches long.
Once in twenty years the bar n the
block are solemnly taken from their
resting place, and all the ofhciai
weights and measures of the govern
ment are compared with them. Very
delicate apparatus is used in making
the comparison, and If the slightest Diff
ference be found. the standards used
in the bureaus are made to conform 10
the standards so sacredly preserved IN
the Parliament o wall.
If all the pound weights and yard
measures now in common use were
lost or destroyed, there would not be
any trouble, as you see, In getting
others.

this briskly to the iron while hot;

When it is somewhat cooler, strain the

which 1t is usually kept. so that it will

the joint at all; sprinkle with salt
only. Don't boil fish; steam 1t by plac-
ing a saucer under the strainer to raise
it from the water. Don't buy slices of
bacon; steam the piece for one hour,
then take off rind. When cold cut into

be effected by means of a piece of

this treatment 1t must be remembered
that the silver should never be allowed

with the Kerosene Lamp.

One OF the most prevalent and in
curious modes In using kerosene lamps
is the turning down very low of the
flame to darken the room where chill
dren sleep, or to keep a low light for
someone coming in late. These lamps
are in use everywhere, wen where
there is gas and electric lights, for
there Is a saving grace in the common
oil lamp which all realize. The light
Is often turned down in a sick room
and the patient never realizes the OBJ
noxious odor, but anyone coming in
from the fresh atmosphere Is almost
stifled with the disagreeable odor. Coal
oil requires a great amount of oxygen
In order to poisonous carbonic
acid gas. That is why, as you will re-
member, o We're taught in school
that the best lamp chimneys were the
big round ones because they caused
suction to carry off the poison. You
saw it demonstrates with the large and
small tubes Inc noticed the sickly blue
red flame in, the smaller chimney.
So essential Is pure air for these
lights that they are really dangerous
merely because of the poisons they
brow off. to say nothing of explosions.
The high, bright light is far less dem
gerous than the low one. 1t is a deadly
poison. yet how many homes today we
know of where a lamp is kept burning
the whole night in a room. If the oil Is
low in the tank 1t leaves more room for
gas, and the explosion which sometimes
occurs is often caused by a gust of
wind, since the gas is inhammable and
will explode when ignited. Never blow
a light out from the top. as 1t Is liable
to blow the flame into the gas and this
Is likely to occur If the wick does not fit
the burner. A clean lamp sends off
little bad odor. but an oil-soaked wick
and clogged burner are the results of
bad smelling lamps used in even mod
ern homes.

The value of Sunlight.

Many persons appear to labor under
the delusion that it is necessary to
avoid sunlight for fear of spelling the
complexion, when, as a matter of fact,
the suns rays are necessary to give 1t
the delicate tinting of beauty n
health, Air is necessary to the first
inspiration and the last expiration of
our lives, but the purity and activity
of the atmosphere depend upon the
warming rays of the sun, while our
bodies require light for their healthy
stimulus.
1t Is well known that without solar
heat there can be no proper vegetable
growth, and 1t Is equally necessary for
the beauty and perfection of animal de-
velopment. 1t behooves us, therefore,
to, see that our homes are open to the
suns rays and are made as bright and
cheerful as possible, and they ought to
freely admit the sunlight. 1t Is we'll
known that disease which has baff1ed
the skill of physicians has been known
to yield when the patient, were re-
moved from dark rooms to light and
cheerful apartments. Light is especial
ly necessary for the healthy growth Of
children.
Fresh air and sunlight have a WON
derful influence on the complexion, and
h woman who would retain the
healthy glow Of youth will not shade
her face entirely from the suns ray
True, with the sun bath she may ac-
quire a few more freckles, but they are

sion. of a fresh creamy skin Is in the

Remedy for Pimples.
Dear Madame Alta:
Kindly let me know a good remedy
for pimples? Also what causes them?
Oblige, ANXIOUS.
Pimples are caused by an overheated
condition of the blood, resulting from
heavy, rich food. or by an impov-
erished condition of the blood. If the
pimples are very sore and annoying 1
would advise you to see a doctor.
The following is a good remedy when
the case is not a serious n and If
the blotches are not too numerous:
Zinc ointment, 2 ounce
Alcohol, III drains.
Resorcin, 1 scruple. r.
Rub into the skin at night after care
fully washing the face. If the ointment
leaves a burning sensation use the fol-
lowing lotion during the day:
Oxide of zinc. 2 drains.
Glycerine, 4 drams.
Rose water, 2 ounces.
This will be found very soothing.
