MANY YOUNG MEN find life in the
navy attractive, with opportunity to save
money and get practical training. The
navy needs mechanics Of all kinds; men
experienced In clerical work, In hospital
work, as well as seamen. This nation Is
building a powerful and efficient navy, and
an enlistment means a definite plan now
and a definite future.
There Is an incentive TO get at the top
in the naval service. Ambitious men have
every encouragement to improve them
selves. A man Is assured OF continuous
employment at good pay. and advancement
as he becomes more proficient.
The government prefers to train young
men at Its own expense at naval training
stations. The recruit is placed on the pay
roll the day he enters. Practical lnstruc-
ton, intended to fit the young man TO go
on board ship in a few months time and
do the work required of him.
The Navy department doesn't urge young
men to enlist, but suggests that they In
vestigate and decide for themselves
whether the opportunities are worth con-
siderlng.
Applicants accepted between II and q,
or, II possessing a trade, IL under IS. Boys
under Is must furnish written consent of
parent and guardian; and under 81. must

WOMEN BUTCHERS.
An Unusual Feminine Occupation Fol-
lowed In Paraguay.

An Unusual Feminine Occupation Fol-
lowed In Paraguay.
The butchers in all parts of Paraguay
are women. In the public slaughter
houses the cattle are dispatched by
men. This is the only part of the work
done by men. The animal is skinned
and otherwise prepared by women who
are deXterous in the use Of the saw
and knife. 1t is served out to the Gus
toners by women-not generally by
weight, but by the piece-and the price
is very low.
Women of all ages act the part of
butchers. Some are young and pretty.
others old and wrinkled The women
are great bargainers and keen to pull
a new arrival almost to pieces in the
hope of securing his custom. These
women butchers earn good wages, and
many of those in business on their
own account acquire modest fortunes.
The cause of this state of things is
the heroic war Waged by Paraguay
more than thirty years ago against
the overwhelming forces of Brazil, the
Argentine Republic and Uruguay CON-
bined This war. which lasted five
years, bore many similar points of re-.
Semblance to the recent Beer war. II
ended in the almost total annihilation
Of the ablcbodicd male popuiation Of
the country.
When the war was over the people
had been reduced to the most abject
poverty and were on che verge of star
vation. Worse still, owing to the de-
struction Of the male population, pei
feet anarchy prevailed. and all the
work formerly performed by males
fell on the fair sex. They rebuilt the
houses which had been burned down,
TILED the fields and wovc for then-
selves rough homespun clothing from

MEEDLEW0RK NOTES.

Whenever possible, one should mend
woolen clothing with the ravelings OF
the goods. This makes q much neater
mend, and If neatly done the rent Will
be almost invisible.
When sewing a collar to waist DO
not allow any fullness to occur across
the back of the waist, unless the waist
is designed for it. If the neck has
stretched Il little and is too large for
the band let the fullness come from
the front of the waist to little IN
front of the shoulder seam.
For a handy needlebook a piece Of
blue satin ribbon eight inches long and
two inches wide is pointed at each
end and finished with small blue silk
tassel 1t is then stitched to second
piece of ribbon the same size and
sewed across to form three small
needle pockets. Into the three pockets
are thrust small papers of needles.
White cotton Grape is a serviceatle
and pretty material for the house
wrapper. 1t can be made rather full
If the fullness is supplied by having
numerous tucks In the waist portion.
The wrapper is made in an empire
mode with the girdle placed below
the bust line. Any dainty trimming
in blue or pink would be pretty. IN
applique Of apple green or apple green
lace insertion would serve nicely for
outlines. For cheap wrapper select
a pink lowered lawn and make it witn
short sleeves, finished at the elbow
with bands. Plait the shoulders ard
have 1t double breasted and collarless.
Outline the neck, waist front and front
seam with a lace insertion, Tie at the
waist with a pink silk ribbon.

DAILY BATH INJURIOUS.
Cherished Custom Of Anglo Saxon
Race Knocked on The Heed.

Race Knocked on the Head.
One Of tho most cherished tSadltlons
CT the British rezS, the "cold tub every
morning." i3 mercilessly criticised by
Dr. J. II. Clarke Of London in "Vital
Economy; or How to Conserve Your
Strength" published recently.
Dr. Clarke contends that in the mat
ter OF health we are onslaved by words
ana phrases. "The pores Of the skin
Is a phrase at the shrine Of which
many feeble folk are sacrificing the
last flicker Of their energy in the daily
morning tub PLENTY of fresh air is
another tyrant which has claimed
numberlcs5 victims.
81 once lost good patient, who was
always ailing, by cutting off his daily
morning tub says Dr. Clarke. 'Ie
grew strong and put on weight, and
It is one of his delights TO shock his
friends by telling them how many
years it is since he had a bath!"
Too much soaping and scrubbing, nc
cording TO DR.. Clarke, remove the lu-
bricating material secreted in the
glands Of the skin TO make it soft and
supple, and the removal leaves the
skin more sensitive to atmospheric
changes.
The skin is a self cleansing organ.
BY soaking the body the self cleans
ing cells absorb water, swell up and
die
"One has only to rub oneself after Il
bath and they come off in little rolls.
These do not consist OF dirt, as is the
popular idea, but of dead skin cells.
often tell people that it y quite pos
sible for them to wash themselves
dirty They remove so much of the
protecting surface that they give the
dirt n real chance of getting into their
skins"
DR.. Clarke recommends as a substi-
tute for bath a folded towel, wetted
in the center and passed rapidly all
over the body. This will open the
pores" sufficiently without entailing
any shock

] he heating ct green house by the
sun ~ usually explained Ivy the fact
that glass permits the passage of light
rays, bat IS almost impenetrable to
heHs rays so that az the light falling
upon tho enclosed objects is convert
ed into heat and partially reflected,
the reflected rays cannot escape
through the glass. thus the heat
uccumulates. 10 test this long estab-
lished theory, Prof. Il. w. Wood
blackened two pasteboard boxes, and
covered one with plate of salt,
which readily conducts both light
and heat, and the other with glass
The salt-Toofed box became even
warmer than the other, this being
true also when the heat WAS first
filtered from sunshine through glass.
The conclusion is that the ground and
other objects are heated hy the in
cident rays, and that this heat is then
spread by connection currents, but,
as the confined air cannot mix and
circulate with the outer air, it con-
centrates a larger amount of heat.

HELPFUL HINTS ON HAIR
HEALTH.
Scalp and Hair Troubles General
ly Caused by CarelessnesS.

Dandruff is contagious disease
caused by microbe which also pro-
duces badness. Never use a comb or
brush belonging to some one else. No
matter how cleanly the owner may be,
these articles may be infected with
microbes, which will infect your scalp.
1t is far easier to catch hair microbes
than it is to get rid of them, and a
single stroke of and infected comb or
brush may well lead to badness.
Never try on anybody else's hat. Many
hatband is resting place for mi
crobes.
If you happen to be troubled with
dandruff, itching scalp, falling hair or
badness, we have remedy which we
believe will completely relieve these
troubles. We are so sure of this that
we offer it to you with the understand
ing that it will cost you nothing for
the trial if it does not produce the re-
suits we claim. This remedy is called
Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic. We honestly
believe it to be the most scientific
remedy for scalp and hair troubles, and
we know of nothing else that equals it
for effectiveness, because of the results
it has produced in thousands of cases.
Rexall 1873 Hair Tonic is devised to
Danish dandruff restore natural color
when its loss has been brought about
by disease, and make the hair naturally
silky. soft and glossy. 1t does this be-
cause it stimulates the hair follicles,
destroys the germ matter, and brings
the about free, healthy circulation of
blood, which nourishes the hair roots,
causing them to tighten and grow new
hair. We want everybody who has any
trouble with hair or scalp to know that
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is the best hair
tonic and restorative in existence, and
no one should scOff at or doubt this
statement until they have put our
claims to a fair test, with the under
standing that they pay us nothing for
the remedy if it does not give full and
complete satisfaction in every particu-
lar. Two sizes, 80 cents and S1.00.
Remember you can obtain Rexall
Remedies in Yale at our store-The
Rexall Store. Grant Holden.

Here is a plain
question

Do you suppose, in this the commencement of
the fall season for ready to garments, that
would make assertions to showing of tailored
suits, If we were not actually making the display
we claim? Would an announcement later in tho
season interest sufficiently to to the store
If you had been disappointed before? Sound logic
will tell you NO There such showing
OF tailored cloth suits ever shown in Port Huron
as is right now in our second floor department. We
cannot afford to exaggerate the least, nor depart
one iota from the actual facts. VIII you look and
be convinced? There is no single priced lot can
lay particular stress If you want to buy a suit
for $3.50, guarantee you the same relative
value as If you want to pay $500.
The Yale expositor., 1909-11-05
a WOrd to those
who buy by mail in the
ordinary nav

Do you have the opportunity of trying on the
many different models? All look well in the pie
lures How do you know they will become you:
Can you honestly tell how tie suit will look from
a sample? We cant and consider ourselves
better judges than the average person. We buy
from actual garments tried on by our own models
critically judging each coat and skirt before we say
its good enough to offer cur trade. BY all means
we say, come to the store We pay your fare and
return. If, however you cannot come we have
different way of selling by mail. We send the
suits direct to you, providing you live i'm Michigan
and you can try the dfCrcat models on examine
the materials and ln,ngs, ana the tailoring youf
hearts content, rgat in your own home That's
the only way, next to coming TO the store to buy
suit or coat by mail That's OUR SATISFACTORY
way, and we p1y tSc larges.

Here are a fem of
the most notable fed-
tureS WhiCh character
ize the styles of the
tailored suits for the
fall season 1909
fall season 1909

In the general characteristics the
suits and coats have a tendency to get
away from the straight lines in vogue
during the past two seasons. The half
fitted and semi-ftted backs have given
way to the more closely fitted models
the coats are longer and define the
waist line more than previously and the
proper lengths are from AZ to Sc inch
es. Plain tailored effects in wide vale
diagonal serges and cheviots are the
smart materials, while home spuns ami
mannish mixtures are receiving much
attention. The introduction of pleats
in the skirts meet with the highest fav-
or-still the plain gored models are
in good demand. Navy, green, raisin
coal dust, prussian blue, steel gray are
among this seasons favored colors.
You can depend on our showing being
correct in every fashion detail.
