Perfect Cures by Cuticura.
For several years my husband was
a missionary in the Southwest. Every
one in that high and dry atmosphere
has more or less trouble with dandruf
and my daughters scalp became so en-
crusted with it that l was alarmed for
fear she would lose all her hair. After
tying various remedies, in desperation
/ bought cake of Cuticura Soap and
a box of Cuticura Ointment. They left
the scalp beautifully clean and free

Telephone Manners.

The question of telephone manners
and telephone etiquette which has been
raised by a discussion in a contempt
rary is surprising, because it seems to
show that even business people admi.
there is such q thing as telephone man
ners, though they appear to think the
code is exhausted when the man at the
other end of the wire has waited their
convenience. Unfortunately the tele-
phone manners that exist are only a
relic of the past, and the habitual tele-
phoner gradually discards small courte-
sizes. The conversation that begins with
the ring of bell by one party and a
sharp "Hullo" by the other is necessari-
ly stripped of dignity, while the fact
that il the speakers are strangers they
will never recognize one another tends
to loss of self-respect. Only the in
nately courteous observe telephone man
ners; the rest of the world lapses into
something like primitive savagenest
when it uses the latest resource Of civ
ilization.-Court Journal

ORIGIN
ofa Famous Human Food.

or q Famous Human FOOD.
The story of great discoveries or In
ventions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack Of bodily
strength and vigor and could not car
ry out the plans and enterprises he
knew how to conduct, was led to study
various foods and their effects upon the
human system. In other words, before
he could carry out his plans he had
to find a food that would carry him
along and renew his physical and
mental strength.
He knew that food which was a
a mere fat maker) was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results. He knew that the
soft gray substance in brain and nerve
centers Is made from Albumen and
Phosphate of Potash obtained from
food. Then he started to solve the
problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famous
food 1t contains the brain and nerve
building food elements in condition for
easy digestion.
The result OF eating Grape Nuts
daily is easily seen in marked stur.
diness and activity of the brain and
nervous system. making it a pleasure
for one to carry on the daily duties
without fatigue or exhaustion.
Grape-Nuts food is in no sense a
stimulant but is simply food which
renews and replaces the daily waste
Of brain and nerves.
It's favour is charming and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory it is served instantly with
cream.
The signature Of the brain worker
spoken Of, c. W. Post, is to be seen
on each genuine package Of Grape
Nuts.

SMALLEST PRISON.
That of Sark, Though Ancient, Contains
but Two Cells.

Jul ANU NC4lS.
Sark, the loveliest of the Channel
islands. possesses a quaint old prison of
two cells, more as a matter of form than
of necessity, for serious crime is almost
unknown in the island, which has no
paid police, but simply an elected con-
stable.
1t is some years since the prison was
called into requisition, says The Strand,
and ca the last occasion the bolt was
found to be so rusty that ii had TO bd
broken before the door could be orened.
The prisoner was then put in, left all
night with the door open and made no
attempt TO escape.
On another occasion a young English
servant who had stolen some clothes was
sentenced to three days imprisonment.
The prospect so terrified her that the
authorities took pity on her loneliness
and CONSIDERABLY left the cell open. The
little maid sat in the doorway and was
consoled by kind-hearted Sark women,
who came to keep her company.
still more curious incident is told of
a man who was convicted for neglecting
his wife ana children. He was ordered
to betake himself TO the prison and there
wait for the arrival of the constable.
This he did, sitting outside until the
door was opened to let him in.-New
York Sun.

learned in Law but Not Letters.

According to a Tennessee man there
was once judge in the eastern section
of the state, a man well versed in law,
but entirely self-educated, who had to
contend with the principles of orthogra-
ply all his life. In early life he had
lived in Knoxville, and for a long time
he insisted upon spelling the name Nox-
VILE
Finally his friends educated him up to
the point of adding the *" so thor
oughly, in fact, was the lesson learned
that when, a few years afterward, he
removed to Nashville, nothing could pre-
vent him from spelling it EVANSVILLE.
Then some time later the judge moved
again, this time to Murfreesboro. On the
day that he began to write his first letter
from this place he scratched his head in
perplexity, and finally exclaimed:
l give it up! How on earth can they
spell the name of this place with K? "

woMANs BRAIN HEAVIEST.
But Only at Birth, Says Expert, for She
Loses Advantage in After Years.

Prof Frederick w. Mott, lecturing be-
fore the Royal Institution of Great Brit
ain on 1.-THE Brain" said that, although
in So per cent. of the cases in which
the brains of great men had been
weighed the weight was above the aver
age, brain weight itself did not always
mean brain quality. says the London
Globe.
When there was lack of the function
ating tissue, the lecturer explained, the
structural material might receive more
than it's normal share of nourishment
and the extra weight be due to over
growth of brain scaffolding." This &C
counted for the very large and heavy
brains sometimes found in congenital
idiots.
Pointing out that the brain weight of
a race long civilized surpassed that Of
aborigines the lecturer stated that
whereas the ordinary European hospital
patient had a heavier brain than saw
age, the Chinese coolie laborer's brain,
developed by centuries of use, weighed
one and one-half ounces more than that
of the European hospital patient.
Referring to the relative brain weights
of Caucasian men and women, Prof
Mott said that the female brain had a
good start weighing nearly one and one
half ounces more than the male brain at
birth. In adult life, however, the aver
age mans brain weighed about five and
one-half ounces more than the woman's.
The average weight of the European
male brain was pounds Is ounces 8
drains to 2 pounds 10 ounces drains,
and of the female brain pounds 10
ounces II drains to pounds 10 ounces
IA drains. Among savages there was not
this difference, since, in the struggle for
existence, the female Lad to apply her
brain as fully as the male, hence it has
developed at practically the same rate.

The average number of crates to a car

bell that the growers netted an average
of not less than rs cents a crate or S345

brella over your head"
"But-but-where shall / stop?"
asked Pietro, much amazed that he
should have heard a real fairy talk
ing. But to his disappointment there
was no reply to his question. Again and
again he asked for more explicit direc-
tions, but not another word did the in
visible fairy say.
81 guess she has flown away" mused
Pietro. "Well, have the umbrella and
I'll walk toward the west. The fairy
said everything would happen as she
had planned it. I'll go down this street
and hope for good luck. No one ever
heard of a fairy misleading one. Fai-
ries are good and honest and the friends
of the poor. Oh, how lovely and dry
| am getting under this umbrella! I'll
soon be very comfortable" And smiling
with anticipation and pleasure, little
Pietro walked down the long street
very rapidly.
And pretty soon he found himself i'm
the outskirts of the city, the street be
coming wider and better kept. A fine
row of great trees shaded the pave
ment on either side, and the houses
were large and far apart, being set in
broad, we'll kept grounds. Here and
there Pietro could see happy faces Of
children looking out from the lace
draped windows, smiling at the rain.
And again>he would catch glimpse of
older faces, more serious, but happy
Then of a sudden Pietro paused.
There at a .window--in one of the most
magnificent of houscs-sat a lovely
Los Angeles herald., 1909-12-05

woman, but her face was so sad. She
was looking right toward Pietro, and
a question seemed to be in her eyes.
She seemed to be saying: "Who are
you, little lad, and why are you in
all this terrible rain?"
Involuntarily Pietro turned in
through the great iron gate which
opened of itself as he approached it.
Then to the house he walked, going in
at the massive hall door, which opened
of itself as he went up the steps. And
into the very room where the lovely
lady sat he walked, for some one seem
ed to lead him there
The lady was standing, as if expect
ing him, with hands extended. "Why,
child, who are you, and where did you
come from?" she asked in breathless
wonder q saw the great gate, which
is always barred from within, open to
admit you, though no hand drew back
the bolts. / heard the hall door, al
ways securely locked, open to admit
you, though no servant was there to
undo the bolt. And how strangely
your little face appeals to me! 1t re-
sembles the dear face of my own son
who died Just three weeks ago and for
whom l mourn. And my husband is ill
of his grief over our loss and nothing
can comfort him.
while the lady spoke the door at the
rear of the beautiful room opened and
a stately but kind-faced gentleman en-
tered. His face wore the signs of re-
cent grief. but as he glanced at Pietro
a smile of joy lit up his eyes. How
like our own darling this little boy
looks Who is he?" Then Pietro told
everything he knew about himself. end
ing with the visit of the strange fairy
to him and of her giving him the UNI
brella. which, by some strange chance,
had left him at the door,
"Ah, then, he has come to occupy

and gentleman and they took Pietro
to their hearts, saying that he was to

and did not bother athemselves about
beggars when the rain poured down.
AS the evening drew near the rain
increased and only one penny had little
Pietro for the evening meal, to say
nothing about the need of a few cents
to pay for shelter at some cheap inn.
What should he do? He glanced up,
and as he did so beheld a great um-
brella unfold over his head. This as
tonished him very much, and he was a
hit afraid at first, as there was no
visible person holding the umbrella.

a shadowy corner in one of the busiest
streets, where he might stand in the
angie of an immense show window and
hold out his little hand for aims,
But after weeks of this sort of pre-
carious living Pietro became much dis
couraged, for he hated begging and
longed to do something TO help himself
to earn an honest living. as he put
1t, for he could not think of living on
food which was not earned by work.
Both by nature and training he was
industrious and honest, and asking for
aims from the casual passerby humil-
lated him deeply, and caused the blush
of shame to dye his cheek whenever
penny was dropped into his palm. But
what could he do? He spent hours and
hours each day hunting for work, and
every employer to whom he applied
would shake his head and say: you're
too small, lad. We must have those of
experience. Why, you're such a little
chap that it would seem like putting a
baby to work.
And so Pietro became deeply discour-
aged, and one very windy and rainy

face, in the corner behind the great
show window, holding out his thin hand
for aims. He was very, very tired and
hungry, and he was heartsick from
grief over the loss Of his dear parents.
who, though they had been very poor,
had always given him a loving home,
If not fine one.
And it was the loss of love more
than the loss of home that grieved the
little orphan so cruelty
Down poured the rain, the wind
carrying it into every corner about the
great show window, and Pietro, trying
in vain to shrink into the protecting
angle, became drenched to the skin.
His tears mingled with the rain on his
cheeks, and rain drpped from the
fingers of his little hand which was ex-
tended for aims, but the hurrying peo-
pie did not pause to drop pennies into
the open hand which was held out so
pityingly. They were anxious to seek
the shelter of their comfortable homes,
