POPULAR DELUSioNS

There is a large class in this worka-
day world that seem incapable of TAX
ing life soberly, however serious the in
tention. An exuberant vitality that
finds no natural outlet turns to the
sensational and marvellous as naturally
as the topper to his cups. Mental in
toxication he must have in lieu of phys
ical stimulus. To such a mind the
rehearsal of a miraculous" cure, es-
pecially when painted with the fire of
religious enthusiasm thrills through and
through and drives into the background
the sober thought of his better senses
A personality adroit, magnetic and un-
scrupulous, by it's overpowering vitality
readily takes captive and enslaVes these
weaker minds But this condition cam
not continue indefinitely. After every
debauch there is a tomorrow, and even
the most trustful ones are likely to
awaken to a condition of enlighten-
ment, when circumstances drop them
down hard on the bedrock of common
sense. 1t is comforting to know, how
ever, that the aggregate number of
those believing in curative occultism,
for instance, is far less than ever in
the worlds history. Where today few
thousand profess adherence to an err
ratio theory, in former epochs of mans
intellectual development entire nations,
like the Hindus of the present time,
were subservient to every art which
the skill of the magician or the dreams
of the illuminate could suggest. True,
we find in every great metropolis a few
soothsayers, astrologers and, at ex-
tremely rare intervals, an alchemist--a

CURTAINS FOR THE BUNGALOW

Following the skill shown by the Rus
sian and Norwegian peasants in needle
work on heavy crash linen, it will be
found in most admirable taste to adopt
their scheme of decoration in making
the curtains and other wall hangings
for the summer bungalow home.
If one has not the time nor patience
to elaborate with the needle all those
beautiful cross-stitch patterns in clear
blues and reds on linen crash, one may
at least arrive at happy color COM
bination and very admirable effect by
choosing some gay cretonne and cutting
it into narrow bands, using these bands
as a paneling or as a simple border,
set back a few inches from the edge
of the curtain. For very long curtains
the band should run across the curtain
eight inches from the top and the same
from the bottom. For short curtains
upright bands will give a more agree
able effect. The Russian linen crash
can be had i'll very wide or in quite
narrow widths. Some of those old
English cotton prints, with tiny roses,
or the Japanese crepe in small patterns
of one color on white, are best adapted
to this purpose.
Where it is necessary to combine the
curtain and window shade in one, the
use of a lightweight India printed
cotton has ben found excellent for the
purpose.
A very delicate Persian pattern print
ed in black on white ground with
mere suggestion of rose color in the
outline of a flower, was chosen for a
living room where the windows were of
small panes and moderate size.

LAUGH AND GROW FAT

Do you know that the immediate
physical results of indulgence in
laughter are very numerous? First OF
all, the act of laughing involves the
exercise of a large number of muscles,
including many of those of the face,
neck, chest and abdomen, which If
they are exercised sufficiently often
become correspondingly well devel-
oped, as do also all the other tissues
in intimate connection with them.
The muscles of your face if you laugh
often and easily will develop to de-
gree which gives the face healthy
rotundity.
But much more than this laughter
accomplishes.
1t has a highly beneficial influence
on the heart and the lungs. In what
is called a "fit' of laughter the lungs
may be almost completely emptied OF
their contained air. Fresh air is then
drawn in to the fullest extent of their
capacity initiating those little air cells
which contained previously only stag
nant air and bacilli-for in the shallow
breathing that we ordinarily practice
comparatively large tracts of air cells
are but little used.
While this process is going on the
general circulation is accelerated, i'm
pure air is hurried out of the system
and fresh air hurried in, and with the
forcible ascent and descent of the dia-
phragm during inspiration and expira-
tion the liver and other abdominal or
gans undergo a kind of kneading not
unlike that undergone during mas
sage, which is of great benefit in
rousing them from that torpor to which
they are liable.
Also the heart is stimulated to more
vigorous contraction during the active
laughing process. If you ''let yourself
go" and laugh with a will you can even
bring almost all the principal muscles
of the body into play. OF course you
do not often laugh quite so hilariously
as that. But good laugh remem-
ber, sis a good thing. and
Happiness.

RULES FOR TUBERCULOSIS

Here is the rule for catching tuber-
culoss: Practice it, and case results
on the principle by which broodlng
hen. given a warm nest and dozen
fertile eggs, will produce flock OF
chickens. Live in a close house, lack
ing sunlight and ventilation, with
plenty of carpets, swept by brooms.
Go out of doors irregularly. Satisfy
the appetite with tea and coffee and so
check the call for hearty, nourlsh1ng
food. Exercise little or none. Then
the disease may creep in, for the germs
are common property. But it may be
fastened if you nave a consumptlVe
visitor who is extremely careless In
habits of coughing and splitting.
Here is the way to prevent it; Let In
sunlight and air. Get gradually ac-
customed to cold by sponge baths, air
baths and out-of door life. Sleep with
open windows, or, better still, out OF
doors. Use hot water hot milk and
soups for mealtime drinks and eat
plenty of nourishing food-which is not
always the most expensive. Let pat
ent medicines and alcohol alone. Al
cohol has never cured and never will
cure tuberculosis. 1t will prevent re-
covery or retard it, 1t poisons the
system, ruins the stomach and thus
prevents it from properly digesting the
necessary food.
Spend your money for eggs. Never

CARE OF THE BABYs HEAD

The regular washing of the baby s
head is usually sufficient to keep II
healthy. The healing of a diseased
scalp is SO difficult that the mother
escapes much who keeps her papy >
head so clean that it is tree from sores.
A thin crust in patches on the baby S
head is the beginning of a persistent
scalp trouble.
When the mother discovers the
patches. she usually responds to the
desire within her to get rid of them
Immediately, and scrapes them OH. She
then probably applies some lotion, and
the scalp is freed from the crusts Will
out hurting the child.
The mother, if she has not had prev
ious experiences of this kind, thinks
the trouble is over. She is much
chagrined to find in a few days that
the crust has again covered the space
previously occupied; and large areas
around it. If she persists with her her
oic treatment, she will shortly nave
the entire surface of the scalp COW
cred with a scurf so heavy that 1t par
takes of the nature of scao.
THE scurf must be healed off, not
scraped off. -,
The mother should use weak solu-
ton of water and boracic acld. WIN
this she spongeS the scalp several times
a day, After the application of the So
luton she covers the diseased surface
with vaseline.
EVERY morning she carefully washes
the head with CASTLE soap and warm
water. Some portion of the crust
comes off with every washing, but the
mother is careful not to tear or scrape
any of the crust off. After the wash
ing the head is we'll sopped with the
boracic acid solution, which is permit
ted to dry. Vaseline is then hperally
applied over the surface.
The child must wear cap until the
scaIp is healed. 1t may take several
days to heal scalp in this condition.
but the mother is patiently persistent
because the childs head will surely
heal with this treatment.

veritable apparition arisen from the
dead.
Yet the callow clientele which en-
courages such imposture is almost ex-
clusively composed of silly women and
senile men, who under the most fa-
vorable conditions could not by any
human possibility exert the slightest
influence upon the worlds progress, nor
affect in the remotest degree the hap
piness of mankind. Others, more ra-
tional delusions of the intellect, may
claim passing tolerance, even respect
but for the sibyl and astrologer of the
nineteenth century, compassion for
fellow men demands that we should
have no mercy whatever.-Exchange

DON'T BUILD ON A ROCK

Notwithstanding certain biblical ut
terances, a rock is about the worst
place on which to locate your house,
says Suburban Life for September.
Such a site is almost sure to be irregu-
lar in grade, necessitating much work
to level off the trench for the founda-
ton walls In addition TO this, the
surface drainage from the premises
will almost surely percolate down to
the bedrock, and these follow the ledge
to the bottommost joint under the foun-
dation walls into the cellar. There Is
no other place for the waite to CO. 1t
cannot pass through the ledge, so 1t
must force itself into a joint in your
wall, and you will soon see it coming
up through the concrete basement floor.
When you start to dig the cellar pray
that the excavation will not come In
contact with a ledge. Clay is a much
better substratum, and sand (once more
Notwithstanding biblical allusi0ns) is
excellent.

A pUsT-PRooF Coal BIN

A dust proof coal bin WIFI be a joy
forever. The way to make it so is to
double board the partition around 1t,
placing good, thick sheathing paper,
we'll Tapped, between the layers of
boards. Another good way, which re-
uuires less lumber, is to use one thick
ness of tongued and grooved boards
and paint the joints with white LEAD
before they are put together. This
makes a tight partition. You must be
careful that the carpenter fits the par
tition closely at floor and ceiling A
door in front of the ordinary side
boards, where you shovel the coal out,
will better keep out the dust.-Subur-

WANTED THEIR NlckELs

church, Yonkers, is relating a street
car incident which concerns conduc-
tor, an Irishman and an Italian. Each

but had received no change, says the
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
''I wanta da nick" ccr""lained the
Neapolitan.
"You's got your nick, \ hicks

I he Italian sat meeklv IN silence,

And he got it.
