coIors, Shades and Tlnts That Cannot
Be Reproduced by Man.
Nature paints in the most striking
colors and shades and tints with a
delicacy never achieved by the brush
In the hands Of the artist The highest
ambition Of the manufacturer of paints
is to produce colors which look like
natures. The yhave never succeeded.
Grass has a green Of its own. So has
the leaf and so has the distant ocean.
None Of these has ever been repro
duced and put in cans with a price
label on them.
Winter apples now repOse on the
shelves of the paint chemists. Honor
awaits the man who can combine col
ors to produce the tints Of red Of the
Baldwin and Northern Spy. They come
pretty near it. that is all. The same
Is true Of the colors with which Oc-
tober first touches the maple leaf.
II all the paint grinding works in the
world were multiplied ten thousand
times they couldn't turn out pigment
enough In a year to do what nature
does In a change from season to sea-
son.
Natures brush is busy everywhere
all the time. In the life OF a leaf it
applies the brush day by day, follow
ing with its tints from budding time
until it futters from the branch 1t
touches the valleys and the hills, the
growing grains. the Towering plants.

In the habit of drinking tea at much
too high a temperature, Sir Henry
Thompson points out in his book on
"Diet In Relation to Age ana Actiyi-
U."
"Few persons are aware that they
habitually swallow hot liquids, tea es-
pecially, at q temperature which If
applied to the hands or feet would In
fiict painful scaIds. Most tea drinkers
take it about 40 70 145 degrees F.,
which the mouth bears very well If
slowly slipped, while the cup itself is
too hot to be held by any hand.
"But the habit of swallowing such
tea is injurious to the stomach, and II
ought not to be taken above 130 de-
grees or so. Again. water at 120 de-
grees. which feels a little more than
Iukewarm In the mouth, causes severe

''This morning tea in any case should
be taken at least an hour and q half

NY Dear Friends:

Ny Dear Friends:
am now making my own volunteer
statement because this lady has caus-
ed me to be so happy. l would like
so much to give you my name, but
hope you know why. [ went with a
young man two years and we spat all
the time. We were twice engaged and
he would disappoint me, until | con-
suited this wonderful lady Now we
are married, and have been for near
three years. He is so nice and kind to
me. | told him a few months ago
of this advice, and he would not
agree with me until he lost his job,
and he then made up his mind, and do
you know that my husband has one
of the best jobs of his life by consult
ing her. No matter what you want
to do or know, let her hear from you,
and | VOW you will never regret it.
can not help believing that she is
sent of God to do just what she is
doing, and you never hear of a thing
ugly that she has done. | visited her
during the K. of P. Supreme Lodge,
and | never met a nicer lady. | am a
Christian and leader in a good many
church clubs. We chatted a good
deal of such things. I find her very
entertaining. l am, as ever, her

MRS. POSIE T. NJ,
Washington, D. c.

To Whom It May Concern:
l have always been one OF those
that did not give any thought of this
until about four years ago | had a
great trouble and it cost me almost
every dime I had, and my mother
asked me one day to tell some of this
trouble to this woman that we read
so much about in our papers. Mother
says, 81 feel that she can help you.
| had to laugh with tears in my eyes,
for l was in jail; then finally I said,
"Suit yourself; anything now, so !
come clear and get out of here She
let this woman hear from her and
about me. We never can forget what
this woman said in reply She said
in substance: "If you will pray and
trust God, | will do the crest" And
bless her today and forever, | was
called to trial, and every witness that
could be found spoke in my behalf.
and those who did not could not be
found | was returned to Jail twice
and then set free Do you blame me
for saying she is a power unknown,
to hele those who seek her aid? |
am now doing business for myself
and making good. Every month l
send her twenty dollars. I have done
this for four months, and shall always
divide my last dime with her. I am
her friend at all times.
