HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

! Persons of defective sight when
threading needle should hold it over
something white, by which the sight
will be assisted.
Bolting the food has ruined many a
good complexion. Teeth were given for
purpose, and if one does not use them
they will suffer along with digestion
and skins.
A mixture Of half a dram of muriate
Of ammonia, a quarter of a dram of
tannic acid, an ounce of glycerin and
one and 6 half ounces of rosewater is
said to reduce the size of feshy nose.
The ammonia and tannic acid are dis
solved in the glycerin, and the rose
water goes in last. The nose is wiped
over with this several times a day, and
cloth wet with it is laid over at night.
If you do not react we'll after your
bath, try what vigorous rubbing Of
all parts of your body viii do. This
may either be a dry rub with alcohol
or aromatic vinegars can be used.
Rubbing the entire body with the
palm of the hand has good effect
not alone on the skin, but on the cir
culation. Where the hand will not
reach with any force double the crash
towel or take long strip of flannel
and, holding it in both hands, draw
vigorously from left to right. This is
good as gymnastic exercise as well
as beneficial to the skin.
A woman needs seven hours sleep
for the building up of her system.
Then she needs two more hours for
the recuperation of her body, and the
extra two hours will restore her COM
elexien, make her eyes bright, take the
wrinkles out of her face and keep her
form elastic. The woman who wants
to derive the fullest benefit from her
beauty sleep will compose her mind
before sinking off into slumber. A
little light in bedroom is a good
thing for some people, for it viii act

WHEN To FALL IN LOVE,

| Cupid's Victims All Right to Compose
Fcetry About.
No woman should ever fall in love
| until some man has clearly invited
| her by attentions visible to others to
regard him as the object of her devo-
tions.
Women who die for love are all right
/ to compose poetry about, but the COM
Portable sort of person to be is the
one who doesn't experience any of the
violent symptoms which carry off these
young women to untimeiy graves.
A well regulated woman who wants
to keep healthy and self respecting and
serene should use the antiseptic treat
ment on an injury to her affections just
as intelHgently as she would use it on
an accidental cut or bruise.
If she finds her interest or admira-
tion straying to the cute mustache or
the broad shoulders, the clever compli-
ments or the marvellous three stepping
of certain man who has not shown
any special intention to single her out
her punctured sentiments with sooth-
ing lotion of common sense.
Instead of shedding tears in secret
or losing her correct waist measure,
being unable to relish her baked pota-
toes and beefsteak and seeking the so
ciety of the disturber of her peace, let
her hustle around for pleasing exercise,
absorbing work and other gentlemen
acquaintances, who will help her to
forget that little stampede Of her af-
fections.
1t used to be considered very grace
full act to be found dead on the sea-
shore with your hair tangled in the
Seaweed, while the man for whom you
had died discovered at your funeral
that he really had been loving you all
the time; but. after ALL it was rather
selfish notion to bring sorrow and grief
on all your friends and relations just
because you hadn't the pride or energy
to throw off an infiammatory senti-
ment.
A man who will be frightened away
from you in the early stages of bud
ding affection by hesitation on your
part to let yourself become involved
in all the hot and cold sensations of
genuine, unquestioning downright love
Is of too timid mold to make
stanch support through life.
Wait until the fellow comes along
who will respect you for your reserve
and pay no attention to your womanly
doubts and qualms, and keep on wait |
ing even If he shouldn't happen to !
come along.

A dispatch from Cincinnati
say the steamer Island Queen
was fired upon Tuesday evening
during her trip up the Ohio river
with VIM. H. Taft and the noti-
fication committee and guests on
board. A lady standing near Mr..
Taft was struck in the face and
breast by a number of small shot
but not seriously injured. The
fact that the gun was loaded
with only fine shot renders it un-
necessary for any one to get ex-
cited over the occurrence, or i'm
agine that an assassination was
attempted. Probably some fool
fired the shot for fun.
