The first thing necessary, she de-
cided, when she had satisfied her hun
ger and finished her meal, was to get
word Of her plight and her resting
place to her uncle and the men Of the
party, and the next thing was to get
away, where she would never sec this
man again, and perhaps be able to for
get what had transpired-yet there
was q strange pang OF pain In her
heart at that thought!
No man on earth had ever SO stim-
ulated her curiosity as this one. Who
was he? Why was he there? Who
was the woman whose picture he had
SO quickly taken from her gaze? Why
had SO splendid q man buried himself

HOW TO CARE FOR BATTERIES
Terminals Must Be Watched or Motor
iSt vii! Have Trouble.

Terminals Must Be Watched or Motor
ist vii! Have Trouble.
One of the greatest causes for the
necessity of calling for the aid of the
friendly horse in the early days Of
motoring was the dry batteries en-
ployed as the sole means of furnish
ing the ignition current. Nowadays
nearly every car is equipped with a
magnetic. and the dry cells are used
merely in starting the machine. In
this capacity they are satisfactory.
since the work is merely of an inter
mittent nature. according to the Auto
mobile.
n great many motorists have trouble
with their dry batteries because they
do not give them the proper care and
attention. In order to have current
OF sufficient amperage and voltage it
is necessary to connect several cells in
series or multiple. This is done by
means Of short insulated wires, which
are apt TO come loose with a very little
vlbrT ion. If one terminal is partially
DISCONNECTED the wh,le battery is prac-
hcally dead; therefore all connections
on the primary circuit must be clean
and absolutely bright.
Care should be taken to place dry
cells in dry insulated box and to ar
range them so that the excessive vi
bration does not cause them to chafe.
y troublesome short circuit may often
be traced to this cause.

PRETTY HOMEMADE SCREEN.

How to Do the Work Easily and at
Trif!ins Expense.
A useful ornamental bed or sitting
room screen can be made ut home by
getting from builders supply shop
four slater'S laths. saving each off TO
the length of tifty-seven inches. This
will leave six short pieces twenty -four
inches long.
Nail the pieces together firmly to
form two frames. putting short piece
across the center of each frame to
brace it.
Select cheap cretonne to harmonize
with the color of the room in which
you wish to use the screen. Blue and
white is good color combination for
bedroom. Get three and ne-quarter
yards. which will cover one side of
each frame.
Lay the frames on the floor and tack
the cretonne on each of them. folding
the material over each end and the
sides. taking care to stretch it over the
frames tightly and smoothly. This
forms the back Of the screen. On the
front part put two pieces of stiff card
board eight inches wide and the width
of the screen that has previously been
covered with dark blue sateen. Tack
these firmly to the top of the frame,
and to the lower edges plait blue and
white Powered lawn extending the
length of the screen.
All around the edges. with brass
headed tacks. put binding Of white
tape.
This can be . rlail! or fancy weave
The latter ADDS to the attractiveness Of
the screen. Tack the tape on the plain
sateen surface so that it forms eight
cen small squares.
Repeat this on both frames and join
them at each end with strong brass
hinges. With small expense and very
little trouble you will ! e good
looking screen that will aL;wer every
purpose designed for such piece of
furniture.

How to Clean Silver.

Some housekeepers who do not en-
joy cleaning silver may be glad to
know Of very simple labor saving
device.
Place articles to be cleaned in an
aluminium dish nearly filed with hot
water, in which any mild white soap
has been dissolved. Allow them to
boil few moments, then remove and
wipe each article carefully with a soft
cloth. Not only will all discolorations
have disappeared, but the tiny crevices
In the decorated parts, which are often
so difficult to clean. will be frightened
as If by magic.

HOW TO MARK LINEN.
Suggestions For Putting on Lettering
So It Will Be Lasting.

So 1t Will Be Lasting.
Napkins tablecloths. sheets. pillow
cases and table mats are frequent
~ marked with an insert Of lace. with
the lettering done on that rather than
worked solidly on the material itself.
This method is stylish and effective.
it's one drawback being rather poor
wearing qualities.
Bits of net or canvas the required
size are lettered, then basted carefully
on the linen. the edge closely button
holed in narrow straight seam and
the material cut away beneath. Leave
an edge to turn back and be hemmed
to the linen on the wrong side for
greater firmness.
Various lettering is used on these
inserts. If fillet net is chosen the let.
ters are done in the regular fillet
stitches. of cross stitch and darning.
Sometimes hea vier canvas is used and
the letters cross stitched in all white
or in two or three tones Of one color
An effective lettering is to have heav-
lily padded satin stitch initials on Il
firm net or small designed or dotted
all over lace. This novelty is more
suited to centerpieces and bureau COW
ers than to handsome bed or table
linens. which last long time and
should be treated conservatively.
Never use fimsy net for back
ground and make sure it is tightly
stitched to prevent pulling or fraying
in laundering. hi

HOW TO PREVENT BADNESS.
Don't Use the Shampoo Too Often.
Tight Hats Injurious.

Many people overdo the matter of
making applications to the scalp. APP
plying strong alcoholic preparations
or other so called tonics too frequently.
Others with an excess of pains bathe
it too frequently. especially with cold
water, as is the case with people who
take daily cold shower bath. Others
indulge too frequently in the luxury of
q shampoo, according to writer in
the Journal of the American Medical
Association.
While the occasional washing of the
hair is beneficial. too frequent applica-
tions of water to the hair do harm by
withdrawing the natural Oil from the
hair and scalp. The best authorities
advise shampooing the scalp not more
frequently than once week and not
less frequently than once month.
Probably nothing better can be used
on these occasions than CASTLE soap
and warm water.
1t is common belief and appears to
be well founded that too closely cover
ing the head has bad effect on the
growth of the hair The stiff hats SO
commonly worn by men at the present
day. which fit SO closely about the
head and which are worn by many so
constantly. it can readily be believed
would have bad influence on the hair.
In the first place. the tight binding
Of the scalp must interfere with the
circulation through the scalp and
around the hair papillae. and. in the
second place. the space in the crown
OF the hat must allow considerable
quantity Of air to become heated above
the temperature of the body. and this
also must have bad effect on the
nutrition Of the hair.
While certain amount Of sunshine
and fresh air is probably beneficial to
the hair. on the other hand. it is prob
ably better that the hair and scalp
should be protected from constant ex-
posure to the rays Of the sun and to
the wind and dust.
With women the case Is somewhat
different. but they have their special
unhygienic practices which must be
mentioned and condemned. especially
the curling Of the hair by winding it
about hot curling irons or doing it UP
in curl papers over night.
In women. if the hair is found to be
cracking ut the ends and becoming
thin and unhealthy. the ends should
be cut off. Most men habitua!y have
their hair cut frequently. Whether
this is of advantage or a mistake is
not so easily decided. There are good
arguments on both sides.
