easier to see a fault in others than
in yourself, and after you have
found it in the other woman you
can look over your own face and
see if you have it or not.
One of the things which girls
and women neglect more than al
most anything else is their eye
brows, and yet, nothing will mar
a face more than ugly eyebrows.
Eyebrows TO be fine, should
curve slightly over the eyes and
have plenty of space between
them over the nose. The hair
should be of uniform length and
dark in color. Every woman in
the land can have nice eyebrows
if she wants them, but only about
one woman in ten does have them,
consequently she must look at
them with unseeing eyes many
times day.
The ugliest eyebrows are those
which meet over the nose, as they
make one look very hard. This
can easily be obviated by pulling
out the hairs with tweezers and
dabbing the place with ammonia
and peroxide Of hydrogen. If
this smarts use little cold cream
afterward. While you are about
it, pull out all the scraggly hair
and shape your eyebrows to a
pretty crescent, beginning wide
near the nose and trailing off to a
point near the temples.

Domestic Science Of
Interest to .PilIsbury

The spirit of service and its appre-
citation were again brought into play
on Saturday afternoon, when Miss
Farnsworth, head of the Domestic
Science department, spoke at the in
FAINT town of Pillsbury. The occasion
was that of the local fair, and while
the town is only three months of age,
it was necessary to show the exhibits
such as live stock and grains, ETC., in
the railroad company's coal sheds, and
the domestic science exhibits in the
depot.
These fairs, two Of which are held
each week in this county under the
auspices of the Better Farming As
ISOLATION and Miss Nelson, county SUI
perintendent of schools, will eliminate
in a fair in this city the first week in
December. At that time all of the
teachers in the county will be in at
tendance. During the morning OF each
day there will be lectures on farming
subjects and problems and the after
Moons will be given over to the lee
lures and demonstrations on domestic
science. Of which Miss Farnswort1,
will have charge.
The little town OF Pillsbury has
as yet no houses. Proprietors of the
stores have fitetd them with living
quarters. It was at one of these, the
store of Mr.. Reyes, that Miss Farms
worth gave her lecture Oh some
phases OF household economy. The
lecture was accompanied by dem
onstration in cooking, before an en-.
thusiastic audience of sixty women.

to be the best place in the world for
the study of strings.
Mr.. Search began his study of the

ING DEVICES.

George Washington used about the
same crude farm implements on his
farm in Virginia that the followers OF
Moses used at the time of their Egyp
tian bondage. The soil was plowed
with wooden plow, and most of the
work thereafter was done by hand. In
1900 the average wheat production in
the United States was $50 bushels
per capita, and the amount of labor re-
quired for each bushel was three hours
and three minutes. In 1900 the per
capita production of wheat was rails.
ed to S.66 bushels, and an outlay OF
nine minutes and fifty-eight seconds
of labor. Formerly it required more
than eleven hours to cut and cure a
ton of hay, Now the task can be done
in one hour and thirty-nine minutes.
At the beginning Of the nineteenth
century only thirty-three people in
every thousand lived in the cities and
towns, while at the beginning, Of the
twentieth century only thirty-seven
out of every hundred lived on the
farm. In 1900 nearly every one had
to dig from daylight till dark to exc
out precarious existence from the
partially titled soil, while in 1900,
sixty-five per cent of the people were
following other pursuits. In 1900 the
farmers labor had been ightened, his
education was higher, his luxuries
were greater. In short, his lot had
been bettered in every way and the
city man dreamed of getting to the
country, rather than that the farmer
cherished in his heart lifelong de-
fusion that sometime he could make
enough money to leave the farm and
move to town.
Formerly a farmer could be picked
out from an assembly of people by
his look of poverty. You may still
pick him out-by his look of SNUG
prosperity. America owes her supre-
macy primarily to the fact that our
people have been liberated from the
thralldom of backbreaking labor that
occupied nearly all of their waking
hours. Farm machinery really liber-
ated the American people. The Euro
pean and Asjatic peoples that still
cling to the old primitive hand meth
DDS will never rise above their low
wages and CORRESPONDENCE low stand
ards Of living and thought, until farm
machinery brings to them cheaper pro-
duction, higher living, more recrea-
ton, and liberates some of them for
other pursuits.

Hot Midday Lunches
For Health Promotion

As a further step in the promotion
of the health Of the children Of the
model school the Normal school has
undertaken q plan to provide those
who must bring their lunches with
warm food, well cooked and whole
some. This food will consist OF either
hot soup. Dreamed potatoes, scalloped
corn, baked beans, boiled rice, maca-
roni, or tapioca pudding, and will be
served for ten cents week.
Students will be expected to bring
the main part of their lunch each day,
but the school will provide tables
with cloth and table ware, and place
the work Of preparing these in the
hands Of some competent person who
will provide at least one article of
warm food each day for all those who
remain. AT times another person will
conduct q story telling period mined
lately following the meal and third
person will organize plays and games
after the story period.
On specially stormy days or on days
when mother needs to be absent from
the home, children who do not usual
~ remain during the noon hour will
be permitted to bring their lunch and
participate In these general plans ON
condition that each child bring the
customary two cents and notify the
critic teacher Of his intentions upon
his arrival in the morning.
The school would much prefer that
all children return home TOR lunch
each day, but where this is impos-
sible. because OF distance, 1t wishes
to protect the health and capacity for
study Of all those who remain in the
school.
