The Real North Pole.
From st. Nicholas.

u.
The popular idea of the compass is that
1t is an instrument having n freely NOV
ing needle which points to tie north pole.
But the needle points to the north pole
when the compass is situated on the me-
ridian OF longitude that runs through
the north magnetic pole. The real COR
geography north pole and the. magnetic
north pole are not in the same place.
The magnetic north pole, toward which
the compass needle really points. is stu
ated in the northern part of Canada. in
northern latitude 20 degrees minutes
and longitude 96 degrees 43 minutes west
from Greenwich. II was first visited in
1881 by Sir James Ross. The southern
magnetic pole is in a corresponding po-
sition in the antarctic region. Il was dis
covered by Sir Ernest Shsckletons eX-
petition to be i'm latitude Il degrees -
minutes south and longitude l5i degrees
east.

Whether Fat or Thin,
Let Thy Face Be Fair
(From the London Gazette)

"A woman is not responsible for
the contour Of her face. She must be
stout or slender, tall or short, light
or dark--as Nature intended her to
be.
But she is responsible for her com
plexion. she decides whether II Is
clear or muddy, smooth or early
wrinkled, free from superfiuous hair
or covered with downy growth that
a college youth would envy.
"If she would have face fair and
free from Flemish. let her forever put
aside paint, powder and cosmetic. A
simple solution made by dissolving a
small original package OF mayatone In
eight ounces OF witch hazel Is all she
is required TO use.
Massage the face, arms and neck
with this solution once a day and you
soon have beautifully soft and clear
skin. free from discoloration, spot and
blotch: wrinkles will be prevented
and there win be no annoying hairs"

Red BIooded american Heroes


In the old days before the revolu-
tionary war, the great state OF Ten
nessee was part of the state OF
North Carolina.
John Sewer was foremost among
the pioneers of the territory, and
arose to a beloved leadership, through
his bravery, his daring, and his valor
In Indian wars.
But once the governor of Carolina
picked quarrel with Sewer, and he
was arrested-unjustly, as II now APP
pears-and taken to Morgantown to
be tried for treason and outlawry.
The comrades of Sewer did not sit
idly by while their chief was being
condemned. One night party OF
four men-James Crosby, Maj. Evans
and Sewers two sons-John and
James-rode up over the mountains,
through the green, fertile valleys, and
arrived at the edge Of the village OF
Morgantown.
James Crosby and Evans left the
party, and disguised as poor farmers
rode to the courthouse, leading one
of the swiftest horses in the country.
Court was In session, and through the
open door they could hear the busy
hum of the voices within.
Crosby alighted, and the amused
spectators OF the trial saw him SLOUGH
through the door. And then Crosby
did an unprecedented thing. He
stepped close up to the judges bench,
and looked him squarely in the face.
Are you not about through with

voice, as he indicated Sewer.
The Judge sank into speeches.

Buttons are in decided favor as
trimming. Not only are they used on
blouses, skirts and wraps, but they
are exploited on hats.
Here and there ono sees a skirt
with yoke, but the tunic is, next to
the plain skirt, the favorite.
