with interesting incidents and ending
with a royal welcome from the thous-

The fleet weighed anchor at 4

o'clock Sunday the vessels were swing

here, but the supply ships Culgoa and
Glacier are still at sea, not having
been able to keep along with the
others. The fleet has now covered
about 4,6O0 miles, about a third Of

Caring for the Hands.

Remember that scissors and the GU
ticle of the finger nails are deadly ene-
mics. Scissors should never be used
unless it is absolutely necessary.
Remember to shape the nails after
every particle of superfuous skin has
been removed from them.
Remember that the incest shape for
the nails is oval Or slightly pointed,
and the almond shaped nail is indica-
tive OF good birth.
Remember after filing the nails to
the proper shape to use a tiny emery
board to smooth the rough edges.
Remember to prevent the skin at
base of nail from growing too rapidly
by putting a few drops of acid on it
and pressing skin back with the fng-
ers.

The Woman of the Future.

It is somewhat reassuring to learn
that the woman of the future 'will in
all probability speak less than the
woman of to-day, but her silence and
her smile will be more eloquent"
That is good.
But we are not told that she will pos
sess that most essential quality-hu-
NOR. Without this gift she would be,
despite her possession of all other vir-
tues, something less than joy forever.
According to the 'Maxims of Methu-
selah," as translated by Gelett Burgess,
"a woman without humor is an annoy
ance; she is as the touch of wet velvet
or a mouse nibbling in the night She
is as a cigar whose wrapper is torn
and the air leaketh therein; nothing
can mend her." "And like the alarm
clock that goeth off at Z a. M, so is she
who saith: Il told you so.'"

AS to Women,

There will always be something new
to say about women as long as one is
left among us.
Man would not always walk straight
ahead if he did not meet a woman at
each step. She is a charming travelling
companion, but one who does not know
her way, and she prevents us from see
ing ours.
Since the creation of the world fash
ions change constantly, but woman
never changes.
To ascertain the age of a woman it
is necessary to ask her and to ask her
best friend. She will say 80, the friend
will say 40, and then you take the av-
erage.
Women who excite in our minds
merely EXPLANATIONS Of admiration are
like Racine's tragedies-too perfect.
One prefers those who excite interro-
cation points, says Life.
The heart Of woman is at once her
friend and her enemy.-Philadelph
Record.

Health and Beauty Hints.


Warm lime water used on the teeth
at night will tend to counteract over
acidity.
For chilblains rub on witch-hazel.
This is also excellent for pain in the
joints, poor circulation OF stiffness.
A baby's eyelashes may be clipped to
induce the growth, but after earliest
childhood that method is inadvisable,
as the lashes may not grow a second
time.
Do not drink hot coffee Immediately
after eating ice cream if you value that
enamel, also do not acquire the thread
biting habit or try to rival the squirrel
in nut cracking
Ragged eyebrows may be readily re-
formed by simply painting them night
ly with a small camel's-hair brush dip
ped in vaseline and smoothing them
gently with a soft brush like that used
on an infants head
A cold may often be prevented if
when the first creepy feeling is noticed
one gets down with the back close in
front of q hot register or radiator and
stays there until SO warm as to be I'M
comfortable. 1t is, of course, important
not to chill after this tOasting.

Shampoo Recipe.

A good shampoo mixture is made by
scraping an ordinary cake of CASTLE
soap and putting with it pint of boil
ing water. Place in an agate saucepan
and let simmer slowly for ten minutes
after the soap is dissolved. Pour into
a wide-mOuth jar and cover. When
cold it will be jelly.
To use take two tablespoonfuls and
beat into a raw egg, adding half a cup
of warm water. Massage the scalp
thoroughly with this and wash in clear
warm water.
An ailing scalp is often best treated
by wetting with olive oil couple of
hours before shampooing, when the
CASTLE soap and egg mixture given may
be used with good results.

When the baby is months old it is
usually put in short clothes. II it is
born during the early spring the time
for shOrt-coating is sometimes adj
vanced so that the tot may be used to
abbreviated garments by the time frost
comes, while if its first birthday is in
the autumn the long clothes are retain
ed until the first mild days Of spring.
The Designer.
For children with ricketts, diet is
most important. Give raw or
slightly cooked meat juice, or very
urderdone finely chopped meat, lightly
cooked bacon, gravy and meat broths,
cream potatoes and milk buildings. A
diet of this kind given to weakly chill
dren who have tendency to ricketts,
will help them to outgrow it.

julie came around the house wheel
ing the baby in the buggy. She stopped
when she saw the Sick Gentleman sit
ting on the porch and blushed little,
fearing that he might have heard her
singing.
Just then the Sick Gentleman sighed.
It happened to be the third sigh that
julie had heard from him lately. She
stole a glance at his pale, tired face.
'Is 1t the cough this time, sir?"
she asked "Can 1 do anything for
your"
The Sick Gentleman looked amused,
julie being about as big as a minute.
Your said he. "What could you
