Orrin Woodin, a Harwinton farmer, who lost
a cheap watch nine years ago while haying, has
just recovered the timepiece in a novel manner,
says the Denver Republican. He butehered one
of his cows. and when engaged in dressing the
bovine, heard ticking noise. An investigation
disclosed the lost watch, still keeping time, but
two hours in arrears. Woodin thinks the COW
must have swallowed the watch when eating hay
The watch was a sten-winding affair and every
time the bovine breathed Woodin thinks it press

For Heat Sufferers.

Persons who fret over warm weather
suffer much more from the~temperature
than those who ignore it. This is not
intended as an axiom, but is a fact, be-
cause heat suffering is largely of the
nerves, and therefore to allow the mind
to dwell upon it only increases the
trouble.
A woman whose days are spent at home
will be stronger nervously and physically
Of she occupies herself in some way
throughout the day. 1t stands to reason
that she should not undertake severe
physical work unless she is obliged to,
and, when necessary, she is to dress for
it, cooling off afterward as rapidly as is
compatible with safety. One who is down
town doing office work is obliged to keep
on just the same. and unless daily condi-
tons are more than ordinarily difficult
she will be well and not exhausted
through the summer weeks.
When a woman finds herself prone to
think what wretchedly hot day it is the
best thing she can do is to try to forget
it. This not not easy or altogether posi-
BILE. but there is no use in taking the stand

that she cannot endure it, for not only
can she, but she must, unless she belongs
to the lucky class that can HE to
cooler chimes. OF course, it is hot in
July: it would be silly to deny this, and
the line of action for her to pursue is to
admit it. once for all, and then, still
keeping busy, do what she can to miti-
gate conditions.
The sort of food one eats has much to
do with ones ability to endure hot
is no better luncheon than fruit, milk
and cold vegetables. The latter, made
into salads with French or mayonnaise

bright one in hot weather. Light has an
irritating effect on the nerves at times,
and, though the sun may not be stream

Whether enc is down town or at home,
a small bottle of alcohol, with which to

water can stand in the room at home and
the hands can be dipped in and the face

Alcohol used in this manner is harmless
to the skin and beneficial to the nerves.

Young Matron Tells
of Good Rest Cure

There are various rest cures for the
head, know declared a woman recent
ly, but 1 like my own best. It consists
in wearing my hair in pigtails down my
back In the mornings, at home. or course,
If we were not in the country 1 could not
do 1t, but as it is I literally rest my head,
as well as my scalp. Try, and you will
become converted"
AS this woman, who is always smartly
gowned, does it, the effect is really pretty,
though she has an extraordinarily large
quantity of hair. She makes a division
from ear to ear, and this section she
takes up and ties with a bow only less
large than that worn by her small daugh-
ter. The mother, however, never wears
any other color ribbon than black.
Then she makes another division from
the middle of the head to the nape of the
neck, and separating the hair little, to
leave the middle of the head bare, she
tom with black ribbons. She does not put
a pin at the base of the scalp to hold the
hair in close to the head. for then the
chief object, that of airing the scalp.
would be defeated After luncheon she
does her couture in usual fashion. save
that all rolls and cushions are left out.
The value in this method of daily treat
ment lies not only In the hair roots 1e1ng
relieved temporarily from the strain Oh
pins and weight but the scalp is aired,
and few women realize how important is
this last. The head always perspires, with
some persons more than with others.
But freshening is essential; tie emulation,
no matter how little, must be removed,
and when the moisture is slight. airing
alone will do this. When 1t is excessive
an agent must be employed, than which
none is better than cornmeal. In passing
be it said that when coarse cornmeal Is
put into the hair the object is to remove
Oil, which adheres to the meal. When 1t
is brushed out the grains must be kept
from the scalp itself. Should -.ey rest
on it they are apt to remain and clog
the pores 1t is impossible for person to
brush her own hair to remove cornmeal,
and when the grains are used, an assistant
must be called into service.
When the airing treatment is being fol
lowed two braids are to conf1ne the hair
at night. The part should be made square
Nv from the forehead to the nape OF the
neck, and before braiding half the hair Is
brought over behind each ear. The braid
is made at that place, thus leaving the
back Of the head quite free for ventiia-
ton Such simple treatment as this VIII
sometimes prevent the scalp from having
any unpleasant odor even in the warmest
weather. MAINTAINED Mia En-

Aiding Weak Insteps.

Just because steel arches within ones
shoes support the instep when it ii broken
down is no reason why such assistants
are to be regarded as cure. In point
of fact, they are aids. and one whose
small bones of the feet are displaced or
weak should go through regular exer-
cises morning and night to strengthen
the feet and overcome the difficulty.
Neither pumps nor ties should be worn.
Shoes that go above the ankles are i'm
perative, because leather acts as brace
to the Joint. Lace boots are better than
those which button, owing to the fact
that the latter can be frightened in one
portion and let out in another when occa-
sion requires. Pointed toes or any shape
of sole which cramps the arch Is mani
testify injurious, and the more woman
can sacrifice her pride to wearing lasts
that are straight on the inner side the
better 1t is not pretty, but it does permit
of the foot being in more normal position
For house and dress, when one will not
walk or stand, more shapely lasts may
be used.
Never may the kind which presses the
arch down be used. There are some long
vamps which do that and they are inju-
rious when there is arch trouble.
Exercises that strengthen the muscles OF
minutes any time through the day when
the ankle is not confined in leather. The
foot must be Free. just as the body Is,
when developing exercises are under
taken.
Work may begin by resting the heels
on a hassock and moving the toes. up and
down from the ankle joint. It is really the
arch bones and not the ankle which is
thus moved. but it does not appear So
The best way is to work first one foot
and then the other, always keeping the
heel in place. Next one tries to screw the
foot around from the ankle. There is no
other way of expressing this motion, and
1t results in the foot being pressed from
side to side in rotary motion. Finally.
one stands and raises ones self on the
toes coming down to the heel in a Sec
ond. repeating this for at least ten times.
In a week or so the number is increased.
Simple though this may seem, the
method is decidedly beneficial and is rec
by ortheopaedists.
Massaging is of course. an aid. and
the instep should be kneaded and rubbed
whenever opportunity offers

NJ. l.. K: II is not half difficult prob
lem as you think to keep the complexion beauti'
full in summer. You haven't used the right
thing-that is all. or course a cream that con-
tains lard or oil will give you shiny face
and powders hound to smear with perspi-
ration. You want a cream that will remove dust
and dirt from the pores and leave the skin
smooth. moist and pliable. You can make sueh
cream at home. and it will he absolutely
free from grease oil. Just get from your
druggist one ounce OF almozoin. put 1t In fruit
lar add half pint OF cold water. stir until
dissolved. then add two teaspoonfuls Of glycerin,
stir we'll again and let stand over night. IN
the morning it will be the consistency OF ordi-
nary face cream. Almozoin clears the skin OF
all pore dirt and prevents blackheads because IT
makes large pores small. Massage with 1t to
keep of wrinkles. rouxhncss and redness. FOL
low the advice given Georgia Girl in the next
paragraph.
Georgia Girl: Use this liquid face wash and
you will find it more satisfactory than any pow
der or cosmetic. Dissolve four ounces OF spur
max in a half pint of hot water, add two tea
spconfuls Of Glycerin and let cool Apply to
the face. neck and forearms with the palm OF
the hand and you need not bother again all day
about your complexion. 1t affords protection
against sunburn. tan and freckles, although 1t is
SO dainty and delicate that its use cannot be
detected. 1t is especially fine for any one with
dark or oily skin. for 1t is true complexion
beautifer and keeps the skin smooth, soft and
velvety.
n. F. D. No. 5: You makeryosr, dull and
expressionless eyes clearer and brighter IL you
use an eve tonic made by dissolving one ounce
of crystos in a pint Of water. Drop one or two
drops in each eye whenever they tired or
feel weak. 1t strengthens weak eyesight, re-
lieves Inflammation and redness. and does not
smart burn. The regular use Of this eye
tonic has enabled many to discard their specta-
cles-a fact that win be appreciated by any
woman who looks older than she really is when
wearing eyeglasses.
". r. c.: Don't feel detected at the ap-
proach of short sleeves. Those unsightiy hairs
on your forearms will yield to proper treatment.
Just get from your druggist ounce OF della
tone lit costs a dollar. but it's worth it, and
mix little of 1t with enough water to make a
paste. Cover the hairs with the paste and let
1t remain for a few minutes then wipe OF and
wash with warm water. Even IL the hairs
should come back they will he light and thin
and a second third application will keep
them away for good.
