ACCESSORIES OF THE TOILET
Dainty Materials and Supplies That
Are in Favor with the Daintily
GoWned Girl.

Scented sea salt lavender perfumed
powder and cheesecloth bags hold

and pertaining the bathing water are
included among the toilet accessories
which one daintily gowned young girl
considers necessary for sanitary safety
as we'll as for absolute physical COM
fort. On the same list are several
bath mits of different sizes, face
cloths Of softest cr amois and sponges
of superfine quality 20 be used alter
nately while the others are being aired,
dried and summed.
Fine French flower scented soaps
are used for the hands and face,
@oap for shamp ooing, but there is also
a regular hair fertilizing and scalp
cleansing soap, and each one of these
cakes is kept in an individual box of
silver, crystal or celluloid.
Sterilized tooth brushes are kept
in stoppered glass cases, and the san
itary tooth paste used upon them is
sues from the top of a screw covered
zinc tube.
Violet and rose toilet waters are
purchased in perfectly alright glass
bottles and essences of those flowers,
as well as lavender smelling salts, in
glass stoppered phials cased in hard
wood boxes.
A porcelain Jar which holds the cold
cream has glass cover which screws
on so tightly that dust cannot pos
sibly reach the preparation. In a
leather case are orange sticks, emery
boards, cakes of cuttlebone, luster and
pumice stone, a tube of ointment and
a nail polishing machine to which
buffer is attached

REMARKABLE SWIMMING FEAT

The aquatic feat performed by Jules
Gautier recently is one of the most re-
markable on record. With hands and
feet manacled and his movements
hampered by rope being attached
round his waist to a waterman's skill,
he swan over the varsity boat course
on the Thames from Putney to Mort
lake, a distance of just over four
miles, in an hour and half. He fin
ished quite fresh and clambered into
a boat without assistance at the end
of the swim.
1t is not the first time, however, that
Gautier has swum a long distance
with hands and feet tied. Five years
ago he swan from Putney Pier to
Tower Bridge, distance of nine
miles, il just over two hours, with
wrists and hands manacled together,
and has dived from London bridge at
low water similarly handicapped.
Particularly daring, however, was
the feat of a certain music hall artist.
who jumped from Westminster bridge
into the river while manacled with
an iron band round his neck, linked
with an iron chain to leg irons, and
five handouts stretched across his
arms. He could not swim stroke,
but was quickly hauled into a boat
waiting for him after he had struck
the water.

USES FOR ADHESIVE PLASTER
From Marking Preserves to Mending
Sudden Rent in Frock 1t Is
Found Valuable.

A trained nurse was responsible fol-
the suggestion that made strips of ad-
hesive plaster a household friend in
one family. The nurse said that in
the hospitals she used this plaster for
everything she wanted to label. 1t Is
easy to write on, can be cut any de-
sired shape, and adheres quickly and
firmly.
She labeled all her different medi-
cine glasses in this way, as 1t did not
blur SO easily as paper labels If 1t
became damp. She also used 1t in the
diet kitchen for different supplies. 1t
could be removed without the dis
agreeable crumbling of paper when it
became soiled.
Since then the family has never
been without supply Of adhesive. .
as the nurse called it. 1t is used for
every purpose, from marking pre-
serves to mending a sudden rent in a
frock.
The plaster can either be bought
wound on spools, or what is much
cheaper, in sheets about a half yard
long, which can be easily cut or torn
as needed.

PALMS MOVED 500 MILES

A difficult undertaking and one
which required the work of six men
for nearly two weeks, was recently ac-
complished in California, when two
3O-foot palms were moved from the
abandoned residence of H. E. Hunt
ington. on the top of Mob Hill, San
Francisco, and transported distance
of 500 miles to his new residence at
Los Robes, near San Gabriel, Cal,
SAYS Horticulture.
Palm moving is q common occur
renee in California but it is not like
Iy that any have ever been moved so
great a distance with SO much sue
cess. Each palm when boxed weighed
18 tons. and a string of 10 horses was
required in order to transport the
palms to the railway station, dis
lance of two miles, through some of
the busiest streets in San Francisco.
The palms figured were also of more
than ordinary interest to the citizens
of San Francisco, having stood there
for more than 20 years In addition
to this fact they might be classed as
most interesting relics of the earth.

Artistic Arrangement of Hall Bed
room Shows What Can Be
Accomplished.

Such a cosy little room as 1t was
the bachelor quarters of the woman
who could pay only So week room
rent! There seemed to be q place for
everything, and such lot OF space
left over just to rest your eyes on.
And yet, when you looked at the cell
ing you saw that it was only mar
row slice of hall bedroom, after all.
How came the magic hallucination?
Why did you not feel as though you
had to walk sidewise to get into the
room, and then keep your biggest
thoughts from expanding until you got
outside again? I'll tell you the Sc
cret," laughs the resourceful woman
who wrought the transformation.

little on getting the furnishings
wanted, but, then | have to live here
year in and year out, and wall paper
is cheap when you do your own hang

lines of distinction between animal
life which belongs to the land and
that which belongs to the water. II
we can believe the accounts OF nat
uralists, there are fishes that ira
verse dry land.
1t is reported that DR.. Francis Day
Of India, has collected several in
stances of the migration Of fishes by
land from one piece of water to an
other.
A party of English officers were
upon one occasion encamped in GER
tain part of India, when their atten-
ton was attracted by a rustling sound
in the grass and leaves. Investigation
showed it to be caused by myriads
of little fishes that were making for
one direction and were passing SLOW
ly on. There were hundreds of them
moving by using their side and small
fins as feet; now upright, now falling
down, squirming, bending, rolling
over, regaining their finny feet and
again pressing on.
These fishes were the famous climb
ing perch, about which SO much has
been said and written, and they were
passing over the country to avoid a
drought. When the stream in which
they have been spending the season
dries up, they scale the banks. and.
directed by some marvellous instinct,
crawl to another.
