BIushing n Sign of Sense.

l. Sir Arthur Mitchell, X. G. B., Of
Edinburgh, who knows much that is
strange about dreams, laughter and
other commonplace human Characters
tics, has just advanced the cOnsoIing
theory that blushing is an achievement
of which every one who can blush
should be proud.
He says it requires brains to blush
Idiots cannot blush, neither can ami
mails. Sir Arthur calls attention to the
fact that tiny infants do not blush, al
though they learn to at an early age,
just as soon, in fact, as the brain be-
gins to exercise its functions. In'blush-
ing. he says, the mind always must be
affected. 1t is always and only a
bodily expression of a mental state. 1t
is a natural thing for a blusher to say
that he had tried not to blush. No in
dividual bushes of his own free will.
The blush arises without call instan-
taneously and vanishes almost as quick
ly. Neither for it's coming nor its 60
ing is there any exercise of volition. 1t
is controlled, Sir Arthur says, solely
by the brain, and is a positive sign
that there is an active brain there.

New Women in Turkey.

Is the new woman about to capture
Turkey? During the recent political
agitation the unheard Of spectacle was
to be seen at Salonica of a woman of
rank, the wife of a young Turk, para
ding unveiled through the streets with
banner, to the delight of her hus-
bands partisans. At Monastir many
women, bent on political errands, tray
eled about alone.
If this is to be the result of a con-
stitutional movement, what is to be-
come of the prophets strict command
against women showing their faces in
public? Gone will be the poets dream
of the dark-eyed beauties of Circassia
leading lives of Incidence behind the
screens of the mysterious harem. If
the daughters OF the near east, like the
daughters of Nippon, are to adopt the
fashions of Paris, go in for political
economy, suffragism, socialism and
small families, like British fashion
ables. and start women's clubs, plat
form campaigns and summer college
courses like their American sisters, a
whole world of tradition and romance
will soon disappear.

A Cure for COrns.

Sufferers from corns or sensitive feet
always dread hot weather, as feet are
peculiarly susceptible to climatic
changes. One woman who has had
trouble with a corn and callOus places
on the soles of her feet for years says
that she was always uncomfortable
from the time spring began until she
learned to use wet congresses. When
ever her feet begin to sting and bQrn
or her corn got sharp twinges she would
tie up her feet in cold congresses over
night. To make them she wrung out OF
ice water thick Turkish wash cloths
and folded them in double folds over
her feet. Over them she placed dry
towels and q thin piece of rubber to
shut in the moisture and prevent the
bed from getting damp. In the morning
the corn and callous spots were free
from pain and soft enough to have the
tops lifted out. The congresses were
worn for two or three nights, until the
entire trouble was removed.

MYSTERIOUS OMAHA MURDER
Charles T.. Davis Is Held for the
Killing of DR.. Rustin.

After a Eve days hearing Charles
Edward Davis has been held on the
charge of shooting Or. Frederick Rus
tin of Omaha early On the morning OF
Sept. g Bail was fixed at $4,000 and
was furnished. Mrs. Rice, who said
she had a suicide compact with Rustin,
was a principal witness against Davis.
DR.. Rustin was a married man in
love with Mrs. Rice. He was heavily
in debt and believed the only thing for
him to do was to commit suicide in
such a way as not to invalidate his
insurance According to Mrs. Rice he
convinced her that she ought to kill
him and then commit suicide. She
tried, but her nerve failed. Then, she
says, the doctor met Davis, who also
wanted to die. The doctor, according
to her, gave Davis poison with which
to commit suicide, in consideration for
which Davis agreed to shoot the doc
tor that night.
Davis admitted everything (even the
taking of the poison) except the agree
ment to kill and the actual killing.
Davis attorney tried to convince the
court that Mrs. Rice did the killing

Health and Reautx Hints.

Almond meal, instead of soap, used
on the hands will stop perspiration.
The chest and bust can probably be
developed more quickly by deep breath
ing than by any other method.
For burns and scalds-Cover with
olive OIL then coat with the white Of
an egg This is very beneficial.
For a bad breath hold listerine and
water in the mouth as long as possible
Gargle with listerine after meals.
If any member of the family is very
sick at the stomach beat up the white
of an egg and let him swallow it. 1t
acts like a charm.
Washing the eyes morning and night
in water as hot as it can be borne is
a wonderful tonic for those useful
servants which are so easily injured.
For slight cut there is nothing bet
ter to control the hemorrhage than COM
mon unglazed paper, such as is used by
grocers and market men. Bind piece
on the cut
Pineapple juice is good for cleaning
stains out of the hands. 1t should be
well rubbed in, left for a few minutes
and then thoroughly washed with
plenty of soap and warm water
For thick lids mop the place under
the eye with spirits of camphor night
and morning, letting it dry on. Also
wet the lids, taking care that none OF
the spirits gets into the eye itself.
To prevent bed sores and to insure
comfortable bed for invalids, make
pillow that will reach from shoulder
to hips, not too wide, of some smooth
material, such as sateen, etc. fill with
whole fiaxseeds. This will never lump
or get hot or in any way uncomf0rtapie.
Not the least unpleasant. by any
means, of the ills attendant upon
cold is the uncomfortable, unbecominS
cold sore or fever blister. If taken in
time it's further development can often
be stopped by the application of a bit
of alum. AIoisten this and rub gently
but thoroughly over the spot
If you have been a victim of colds
with the approach of winter stop to
consider the cause in nine times out
of ten it will be found that you are
afraid of fresh air. Keep your windows
up as far as they will go at night
and the more windows you have the
better chance will there be that you
rout the cold habit.
A poultice of witch hazel is often
very soothing to a muscular pain and
is simply made. In a small saucepan
put a square, folded flannel cloth. Pour
over this enough witch hazel to thor
oughly moisten it; heat and place the
flannel cloth over the pain. Cover it
with a dry flannel and pin a towel over
it to keep it in place.

Brushing n Dress.

In brushing a garment that holds
lint and dust place it upon the ironing
board and sweep it with the whisk
broom, always in the direction of the
weave, which should be from the band
to the hem. Even this process will not
always insure a perfect clean skirt, for
the broom and brush scatter dust par
ticles, but you will meet with good re-
suits by going lightly over the goods
with a dry sponge. This sponge will
take up all pieces of lint. 1t can be
used to brush the collar and cuffs of a
coat and is very convenient for dust
ing dandruff from, mans coat collar.

There are many good neck trim
mings, chief among which will be
found the tiny thick ruches of tulle,

fragile lace collars. Smart dressers

be found a cleverly arranged ruche Of

The beauty of many of the new

vague, indefinite plaid and check de-
signs are newer and are receiving more
favorable attention III Paris. Beautl-
full color combinations and designs are
shown in these new plaids, the blend
ing often being so subtle that at a
short distance the material looks al
most like a one-tone color.
Charming evening wraps are made Of
plain white crepe de chine, cut on the
circular style and finished round the
neck with a white silk cord. If it is
necessary to line the cape, nothing
could be better than a liberty SAITH

kimono and the mikado jackets seems
to be going out, and these ornate wraps
are replaced by simple capes Of silk,
satin and crepe.

cH1cAGo's SHOCKING CONDITION
Fifteen Thousand School Children
Suffering from hunger.

Suffering from Hunger.
According to the report of a COM
mittee which has been investigating
conditions since May, there are 5000
children in Chicago frequently sent to
school breakfastless, while 10000 9th
ers are habitually hungry as the result
of receiving insufficient food What to
do with these children is now the prob
lem that confronts the city. The Board
of Education says that it cannot de-
gally furnish food, but is willing to
provide rooms and equipment to en-
able any philanthropic person, or or
ganiZatio to relieve the distress. Many
are opposed to the idea of giving free
meals to children at school, believing
that the proper course is to enter the
homes of the people where restitution
exists and relieve it there. They urge
the argument that if the child who at
tends school is underfed the same con-
dition, even perhaps to greater extent,
applies to the younger children re
maS1ing at home The problem is a
serious one, and calls for quick solu-
ton.
Some of the conditions found by the
investigating committee were most
pitiable. Hundreds of mothers, the re-
port says, often go to bed hungry in
order that their children may have
something to eat next morning. This
self denial is habitual heroism in sew
eral districts of the poor. Fathers out
of work have been found who were
regular beneficiaries of the free lunch
counters in saloons, while their fami-
lies went hungry.
Children have been found on South
Water street, faint with hunger, beg.
ging for dead fowl in the crates or for
decayed fruit. They have been seen
feasting on remnants of food from gar
bage boxes in alleys and in a few in
stances clutching at crusts of bread
thrown away by other children at
school.
In $40 homes children were found be-
ing raised in places unfit for human
habitation. The city is filled with de-
serted wives with large families. Chill
dren were found who did not know the
taste of butter and to whom the taste
of meat was but a memory.

You will notice that you are very de-
pressed and sad, that your blood IS
sluggish and that your digestion is all
wrong. The reason of this is that IN
your moment of anger you expended
three or four times the ordinary
amount of bodily tissue. AS a conse-
quence you can not be your normal sell
until the overdrawn tissue is replaced.
You will note that people with very bad
tempers never live very long, the eX-
cessive drafts upon the physical make
up eventually exhausting the latter. A
certain amount of reasonable anger
however, acts upon the system as
veritable tonic.

Some of the wide soft leather belts
lave a line of rather large steel rail
heads set along the upper edge only and
buckles covered with leather and or
namented with steel. Others are fooled
in gold along the upper edge in Greek

simple gold buckles curving in to fit
the waist. These belts are among the
favorite models in many exclusive
shops and are offered in many shades
or are made TO order in almost any
shade desired.

Manners of Good Men.

Goodness in itself should be attrac-

man whom we respect rather than love.
Too often he is lacking in the minor
graces that make so strong an impress

scious as he is of his own rectitude,
he thinks it superfuous to acquire the
charm of an easy manner or to per-
form babitually small acts of courtesy
or politeness.
