Ways of Avoiding Colds

sTVHE dreadful colds oil winter are nor often the result Of overheating
and lack Of. seene than they are to exposure. Here are a few rules
for healthy living In town houses during the winter months.
Every sleepingEoom should be We ntnated at night
The hvingr oom should never be allowed to reach a temperature higher than
H. 6S being h proper temperature for he bed chambers during the daytime.
II the house is heated by steam, a bowl of water placed n each radiator
causesth the heat to be less dry and. therefore, less exhaushng. If the house
Is furnace-heated, SEE that the water-bo is continually filled.
Children should have Undertaking composed O. a twothirds wool mix
ture Ihgh-necked and ngsleeved vests and little drawers down to their
shoe tops. High Shoes cotton stockhn IS and wash dresses, with boomers to
match dnstead of peticoats) complete a healthful, simple form Of dress The
protection offered by the wool in their Undertaking enables the children to
live lin a cooler and therefore. a more Healthy house
If 1t is possible 20 10 so heat the living oom by means Of ar open fire.
An open fire is ideal, particularly in sickness, fol it ventlates while it heats,
thus performing a double benefcent task.
The children should be trained to take tepid baths. and encouraged when
1T seens advisable to take q cold plunge every morning. Sluggish circulation
is responsible for most Of the Ills o. childhood. and this is the best wa to
overcome the trouble.
If the children who do not take cold baths a be induced to sponge
their threats and necks with cold water every morning, they will often by
this very simple means prevent themselves from taking cold.
Teach thu children while they are little that cold or Influenza does not
come ron fresh air.. but from a germ; that to successfully fight this germ
the body must b kept strong n vigorous. An appeal of this kind to their
sens will be effective. inasmuch as it will show them that over
crowded, overheated rooms depress the general system In o invite the
cold" FERN to faTen itself upon them.

Why Some Women
Have Beautiful Hair
tFrOm London Saturday Review.>

THE popular method of caring for
the hair is wrong" says Professor II.
L. Snavely. Make your own investi-
cations and see for yourself. Take the
woman addicted to frequent shampoo
ing with scented soaps and the use
of so-called hair tonics and compare
her with the woman who depends upon
sane and sensible dry shampooing.
Only too often you find the soap-and-
water woman's hair thin, scanty, brit
tie and dull In color.
Now note the results OF dry sham
pooling. You find the hair long, album
dant and glossy. 1t is fine in texture
and rich II color. 1t is light, bright
and fluffy, while h scalp is clean and
healthy. You'll find no dandruff or
soap scales on that head.
Any woman to properly are for her
should use a dry shampoo. Mix
4 ounces of powdered orris root with
4 ounces of therox. Sprinkle a table,
spoonful of this mixture pon the head,
then brush the powder well through
the hair. The therox and orris root
mixture is much better than orris root
alone--and therox can be depended
upon to grow hair II anything will"

Rowland. You'll open your eyes when

and Rowland found himself laughing
down into the red, freckled face of the
superintendent. He liked this man i'm

a low voice as Macdonald went out
ahead of them. Always like that
Happy as a boy most of the time, loved

camp would do without him."
This same thought occurred to How

foremen whom they met seemed to
stand in a certain awe of the senior
engineer, but 1t was at the little e d
headed Scotchman's cherry words that
their eyes lighted with enthusiasm.
This was not like the old Thorne, who
had been the eye, the ear and the
tongue of the company's greatest en-
cheering works for a decade past, and
whose boundless enthusiasm n o
of work had been the largest factors
in the winning of fame that was more
than national. He began to note that
there was a strange nervousness about
Thorne when they were among the
men, an uneasy alertness in his eyes,
as though he were looking for some
particular face among those they en-
countered. MacDonald's shrewd eyes
observed his perplexity, n once he
took an opportunity to whisper:
IT guess it's about time for Thorne
to get back into civilization. There's
something bad in his system. Weston
told me yesterday hat his injuries are
coming along finely. I don't under
stand it,"
A little later they returned with
Thorne TO his room.
Il want Rowland to see this south
coyote go up" said Macdonald. Can
you spare him? Well be back before
noon"
Certainly. Come and take dinner

Use of Cosmetics.

My Dear Miss Doom:
Will you kindly tell me through your
paper if face powder Injuries a young
stirl's skin, and also If rouge affects
ID In any way? Some people say that
4pplying cold cream TO the face be-
fore putting on the powder prevents
3the powder from injuring the skim. Is
this true? BY answering me you Will
receive the thanks and oblige
"A FIFTEEN-YEAR-OLD SCHOOLGIRL.
You are young to begin the use OF
'face powder and rouge. Cheap face
powders have a tendency to roughen
the skin, but a little rice powder, tai
cum or q good face powder will do no
special harm except to make the skin
very dly, and it is better for that rea-
son to apply cold cream first unless
the skin is naturally oily. AS to the
use of rouge that is a question entire
ly for you to decide. If you TAKE suf-
fIcient exercise you should have enough
color without resorting to artificial
means.

EUROPEAN QUEENS ARE TALL.


With two exceptions the queens of
all the European countries are said to
be taller thar their husbands. Queen
Helene is more than a head taller than
the King of Italy. Queen Victoria Is
more than a half head taller than
Alfonso of Spain. The czar looks small
beside the czarina. The German eni-
press is a trifle taller than the kaiser.
and for that reason always sits when
their photographs are taken together.
King George of England is shorter
than Queen Mary. The W exceptions
are the Queen of Norway and the
new queen of the Belgians.

Rowland fancied that there was a
certain tone Of relief in the seniors
voice, but he made no mention of 1t to
the superintendent as they walked
swiftly TO the scene of the blowout"
The coyote was ready for firing when
they arrived. The coyote itself-a un-
mel of fifty feet dug into the solid rock
of the mountain and terminating in a
| chamber packed with e-xplosive-was
closed by masses of broken rock,
ranmed tight, and Macdonald showed
his companion where the electric wire
passed to the fuse within.
IT'S a COMPOUNDED mystery to me
why Thorne doesn't care to see this
ridge blown upi' he exclaimed after
they had finished the inspection.
We've been at work for three months
drilling this coyote, and the bigger one
to the north. There are 1000 square
yards of rock TO come out of there. and
5000 out OF the other. You don't see
shots like those three times In a life
time, and there'l not be another for
US between here and the bay. What's
the matter with Thorne?s

Donald walked swiftly In the direction
of a ridge to the right. Already guards
had been thrown out on all sides Of

ings Of "Fire-Fire-Fire," shouted

echoed with ominous meaning through
the still wilderness. where for the time
all work had ceased. On the top of the
ridge half a hundred of the workmen
had already assembled. and as How
land and the superintendent came
among them they fell back from around
a big, fiat boulder on which was sta
toned the electric battery. MacDon-
AIDS face was flushed and his eyes
snapped like dragonfies as he pointed
to a tiny button.
God, but / can't understand why
Thorne doesn't are 10 see this" he
said again. Think of II. man-seven
thousand five hundred pounds of pow
der and two hundred Of dynamite! A
touch of this button, a fash along the
wire. and the fuse is struck. Then,
