HAIR REMovERS

Or. Wertenhaker Says Don't Use
Poisonous DepiIateries."

In treating supernuous hair 1t Is of vital i'm
portance that the agent to be employed should
be absolutely non-poisonous antiseptic and ger
micidal. because, IL it is not So with frequent
use II will produce eczema blood poisoning.
The trouble with the majority of ladies Is that
they don't do a little thinking for themselves.
When assertion is made by some unreliable
concern they take 1t as gospel truth. They never
consider the reliability, neither do they question
nor ask for any substantiating proof that a prep
aration is non poisonous. They seem to think
that the bare word of the manufacturer is suf-
ncient. To the contrary. ladies should be most
particular in choosing hair remover and learn
first what reputable authorities know about it.

says: For several years said to my patients

NEWS OF THE LOCAL

tional inspection of the national guard.
which has been decided upon by As
sistant Secretary Oliver on recommends
ton OF the national militia board. A
circular letter has been forwarded to
each state. informing them Of the pro-
posed additional inspection. In which re-
quest Is made that in drawing UP the
program for the coming summer encamp-
ment opportunity be given to make the
inspection contemplated by the officer de-
tailed by the War Department for that
purpose.
The department finds 1t impossible to
give any definite information as to the
details Of the inspection or as to the time
required to make them. This will depend
In each case on the size OF the organiza-
ton and on the degree of training of the
troops. In general terms, the inspection
will be such as to enable the inspecting
officer to form definite opinion as to the
features Of the military organization Of
the troops, the nature of the armament
and the degree of instruction.
'The scope Of the inspection is deter
mined by the act Of Congress. which in
cludes such inquiries by the inspectors as
may be necessary to establish an adequate
knowledge OF the nature Of the organiza-
tion. character Of the armament and the
degree of discipline. or instruction Of the
bodies inspected says Col. Weaver.
chief of the division. 1T is difficult to
specify the limits and the scope Of such
an inspection in more than general terms.
and 1t Is also difficult, II not impossible.
to designate the time that will be re-
duired in any particular case. The scope
and time In all cases will be dependent
on the size Of the organizations to be In
spected and on the state of their instruc-
ton. Each Inspector will have to deter
| mine what is necessary. both as to scope
and time. after he has been brought into
contact with the troops.
1.-TWO conditions may arise In carrying
out this scheme. First the officer desig-
mated to make the inspection may be the
officer detailed by the department to be
present during the encampment for in
struction purposes. In such case the Of
f1cer would be able. 1t is assumed, to ac-
quire the necessary information in regard
to organization, armament and discipline
In connection with his duties as instructor
without interfering in any way with the
scheme Of instruction. Second, the Of
ficer may be appointed specially for the
purpose Of making the inspection. and not
be the one detailed as instructor In this
case 1t will be necessary for the officer
detailed as instructor to arrange, by spe-
cial correspondence with the military au-
thorities of the state, for such opportuni-
ties for making the inspection as may be
thought desirable by the officer. and may
be conveniently granted by the state au-
thorities.''

Ut is curious to note how some OF the
articles Of trade conducive to human
luxury and convenience, and which
IL are in general vogue today. were
originally produced. For instance, 1t
was an alchemist who. seeking to dis
cover a mixture of earths that would
make the most durable crucibles, one day
found that he had made porcelain. The
origin Of the still popular blue-tinted pa
per came about by a mere slip of the
hand. The wife of William East, an Eng
lish papermaker, accidentally let blue
bag fall into one OF the watts of pulp. The
workmen were astonished when they saw
the peculiar color of the PAPER. while Mr..
East was highly incensed over what he
considered a grave pecuniary loss. his
wife was So much frightened that she did
not confess her agency in the affair After
| storing the damaged paper for four years
Mr.. East sent it to his agent in London,
with Instructions to sell it for what 1t
would bring. The paper was accepted
as a proposed novelty" and was dis
posed of at quite an advance over the

another large invoice of the paper. He
was without the secret, and found him.
self in dilemma. Upon mentioning 1t to
| his wife she told him about the accident.
He kept the secret. and the demand for
the novel tint far exceeded his ability to
supply 1t.
While Marshall Jewell was minister to
Russia he found out, by the exercise Of
his sense of smell. the secret Of making
| russia leather. Instead of using tallow
and grease in the dressings of skins the
Russians employed birch bark tar. By
| careful inquiry and literally following
his nose during visit to one Of their
large tanneries he found the compound
in a mammoth kettle, ready for use. He
| reported his discovery. and the result Is
that genuine russia leather goods are now
made in this country.
The art of mezzotinting was suggested
by the simple accident of the gun barrel
of a weapon in the hands OF q sentry
becoming rusty with dew.
The process Of whiting sugar was dis
covered in a curious way. A hen that
had gone through clay puddle went
with her muddy feet into sugar house,
leaving her tracks on a pile of sugar. 1t
was noticed that wherever her tracks
were the sugar was whitened. Expert
ments were instituted. and the result was
that wet clay came to be used In re-
fining sugar.

It Is stated by the Roman writer Pliny
that the art Of making glass was acci-
dentally discovered by some merchants
who were travelling with nitre. and stop
ped near a river issuing from Mount Car

pieces of their nitre for that purpose The
nitre, gradually dssolving by the heat OF

parent matter flowed, which was, in fact
glass.
It was a French beadmaker named
Joaquin who discovered the manner Of
preparing the glass pearls used at present
which approach as near to nature as pos

that when the small fish called ables or
abletts were washed the water was filled
with fine silver-colored particles. He let
