LATEST CURE FOR NERVES,
Walking Barefoot on Sands of Sea-
:. shore Advised by Specialist.

Walking barefooted on the sands
of the sea is the latest cure for nerves
so well-known medical specialist
insists.
"The good qualities of sea sand,
which in many ways, is as health
giving as ozone, have been universal
ly overlooked by holiday Makers he
said.
Zone of the most soothing and
beneficial cures a tired business man
can obtain is that of walking bare
footed on the sand by the seashore.
''The nerves on the sole and ball
of the foot are slightly irritated by
the small grains of sand, and, so
stimulated, setting up an increased
circulation of blood throughout the
body. .-
Mentally this exercise has most
invigorating effect The nerves of
the feet telegraph to the brain, as it
were, how comfortable and refreshed
they feel, and the brain responds by
feeling comfortable and refreshed too.
IF you do not want to walk bare
footed wear shoes-not boots-so
that the sand may get in over the
top and at your feet.
"Then there is the soothing mo-
notony of the sands. The long, fat
stretches Of yellow sand have a
soporific effect on the mind-they in
duce q feeling of rest and detachment
from the worries of the world.
'Some enterprising man also
should open hot sea sand baths at
some resort, just as there are mud or
earth baths at certain German seas.
These baths are very beneficial in
cases of rheumatism and neuritis.''

= : Fl
When broiling halibut, cover the
fish with minced green pepper. The
seasoning will be found delicious.
Lime water and olive oil, applied
with soft muslin rag, is one Of the
best lotions for burns and scalds.
Wlping over shelves with oil of
cedar is said to be the most effective
way of keeping, mold from books.
Boiled rice, prepared like macaro-
nj, with grated cheese, and baked in
the oven, makes nice dinner dish.
If soft boiled eggs are left over,
boil them hard at once. Tehn they
may be used in meat and fish sauces.
Butter keeps best in stone jars
with stone lids: Wrap the butter in
a clean cloth, wrung out of salt wa
ter.
Straight hair can be curled by
moistening with ounce seed, rolling
in paper and holding in hot tongs to
dry. #
Vegetables which have been served
with a white sauce should be warmed
over only in a double boiler lest they
burn. - .,.
A pinch of soda in water in which
green vegetables, peas, string beans
and baggage are boiled will keep the
color " ~.
Green grape and elder berry make
a delicious combination for a jelly.
Use twice as much elder berry as
grape.
Macaroni may be satisfactorily
warmed over in a double boiler.
When warmed in the oven it becomes
dry and hard.
. Soaking the hands and wrists in
hot water will sometimes relieve
headache. Soaking the feet in hot
water also helps.
If one of the rooms in the house
seems too dark, try putting in piece
of brassware, highly polished, in a
conspicuous place.
Sweet sandwiches for the afternoon
tea may be made of thin slices of
white bread, spread with jam, topped
with cream cheese.
Mating and mating rugs of straw
may be freshened by washing with
salt and water and then rubbing dry
quickly with a cloth.
To prevent embroidery from puck
ering haste tissue paper under the
part to be embroidered. 1t will cas-
lily pull away when the work is fin
ished.
Many housewives have the kitchen
table covered with oil cloth. 1t is
wise to have the table first covered
with piece of felt, old blanket or
some soft material This will deaden
sound and save wear on the oilcloth.

which is about the size Of red-winged black
bird the swamp blackbrd known to every coun'
try boy. The shrike preys smaller birds, on
mice and on big insects which it empaes on
thorns after making meal, in the case OF olrds
and mice of the brains Of the quarry. Inc
shrike is dressed in soft grays and while rather
a handsome bird it is by no means OF Drllhant
attire.
The African shrikes which DR.. Mearns col
lected and in which Theodore Roosevelt showed
a marked interest the day in which he went
through the museum are perhaps among the
most brilliant colored birds OF the world Ihey
are not unlike the American scarlet tanager only
the scarlet is Of the kind that seems to burn the
sight Colonel Roosevelt has been having lit
tie controversy with Scientist Abbott Fl. Thayer
over the question of the protective coloration of
birds and mammals. Mr.. Thayer in general
way thinks that most animals have colora-
ton which protects them in measure from
discovery 1t is known that this is perfectly true
of some kinds of wild creatures, but Mr.. Thayer
thinks that brilliantly plumaged birds are
protected Colonel Roosevelt on the day Of his
visit to the museum held up one Of the shrikes
in it's scarlet attire and said ironically, There's
a fine example Of protective coloraton.' Look
ing at the bird one might readily believe that
against background of green leaves it would
be the first object in the landscape to attract
attention
There are storks in the African collection. 1
think that three species were included in the
captures. Now it must be understood that when
the expedition went into Africa it agreed
that there should be killing beyond the actual
needs of science except of course when it was
necessary to kill game to supply the game table
with food The rule that when certain
number of mammals or birds of each kind had
been killed the shooting must stop and the
Der fixed was very small, although of course this
regulation did not apply to destructive animals
like the beasts of prey, mice and other crop de-
stroying rodents
The rule which Mr. Roosevelt insisted upon
and in which the others readily acquiesced was
lived I'D to the letter. When DR.. Mearns had Sc
cured fixed number of storks he wanted to get
one more because he thought there was some
point which might be decided If he could add
another stork to the collection. He told Colonel
Roosevelt he was going to kill another stork
The colonel laughed and said, SO it is reported:
mot on your life" Mr.. Roosevelt's anti-race
suicide announcement may account for his de-
votion to the interests of the stork
When we were ready to leave the museum Dr.
c. Hart Merriam who has made careful study
of the collection brought back from Africa turn
ed to Colonel Roosevelt and said There can
be no possibility of mistake in saying that the
expedition which you led the of Civ
ing to the National Museum the finest and most
valuable collection of African animals whicl
exists in the whole world. Science has profted
immensely as the result Of your labors."

had responded to the reckoning fin

left the room.

Wayville just long enough to allow it's
passenger for this point to alight
Waller, dressed In unassuming black,
pushed back the broad hat from his

trim, daintily clad girl tripped towaro
him.
