HAS 20 MINUTES SUNSHINE

mere is busy town of 500 inhab-
ltants IN Colorado where the sun
shines but 20 minutes out Of each "a
hours. This town is River Portal. II
~ located In Gunnison canyon and IS
the point from which the great Gun
nlson tunnel was run that the waters
OF that river might be conducted to
the deserts beyond the mountain
range. The Gunnison canyon was
steep and precipitous and opposed
great difficulties to the engineers who
sought to divert Its. waters. These
engineers cut road in the solid rock
OF the canyons side and at the foot
OF that road planted town. This
town was the headquarters for the
spectacular engineering enterprise
that they had in mind. In the town
lived the working force which was
driving the tunnel through the noun
tain, K.
This town was percned upon the
piece OF ground at the foot OF the
great cliffs that was most nearly
level. Even this spot. however, Of
Tered an opportunity of placing the
dwellings only in an irregular way
and one above the other. Here IN
the mountains has existed for four
years busy little village with all
the elements Of modern civilization
brought with 1t into this, isolation. In
the picture Uncle Sans public school
appears as the highest building in the
right hand background . rs,
The strangest thing about this vii
lage Is the fact that it has but 20
minutes Of sunshine every day. This
is due to the precipitous walls that
rise on each side Of the stream and
shut out the rays Of the sun. There
is the brief period of 20 minutes be-
tween 1920 and 11:40 when the sun
peeps over the bluff on the one side
OF the stream and before its rays have
been cut OF by the high cliffs on the
other side. This one short span Of
sunlight is all that these people OF
the canyon get year in and year out.
Artificial light bills run high here.

CARS WARDROBE COSTLY

81 "
The car OF Russia Is the European
sovereign who spends most on his
wardrobe. The tailor who makes his
ordinary suits says the net annual
profit from them Is $4,000. and the
army tailor who Is responsible for the
uniforms and court dress makes $15.-
900 year. His majesty never puts
on a suit more than three times. and
each one costs about $50. For silk hats
! the car pays s26, and SO 9 pair for
gloves. Every year, It 10 stated. he
purchases q sable cape costing $1,000.
King George, on the other hand, 10
one Of the most economical Of living
monarchs. allowing himself only 500
900 a year to dress on. This sum is
spent annually by the kaiser on uni
forms alone. The German emperor.
however. pays very little attention to
his civil wardrobe. He never pays
more than $35 for suit. which he
thinks nothing Of wearing thirty times.
The principal luxury In dress he al
lows himself is in neckties.
{; With the king of Spain the favorite
article OF dress is silk shirts. in which
he always hunts. and OF which he buys
many dozens every year at $50 each.
The most frugal Of all the crowned
heads In the matter of clothing is the
king ot Norway. who spends no more
than an ordinary well-to-do citizen.

WHITE PIMPLEs ON HEAD

Ransom. Ill.-"The trouble started
on our baby when he was only about
two weeks old. Started like little
white pimples, looked like an old scab
Of blood and matter. His whole head
was covered for few months, then It
went to his ear, shoulders. and his
whole body. It seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head, while
on the other parts Of his body It was
more like water coming out OF the
skin. He would scratch until the erup-
ton would be all covered with blood
and gradually spread. The least little
stir or rub would cause the sores to
bleed. spread and itch. Never had q
full nights sleep. restless all night.
"The sores were horrid to look at.
It lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an ec-
zema advertisement in the paper to
use ,-----, but It did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura Oint.
ment on thick at bed time and put q
tight hood on so he could not scratch
the sores. Then we washed 1t clean
with Cuticura Soap, and warm water
twice day, and he was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. e. f.. sulxber-

BRIGHT GLASS AND SILVER
How to Care for Both With the Least
Work and to Clean Them sf'6
Without Injury, 1

There is nothing that repays ono
more for careful washing and drying
than glass First one must have q
bowl OF warm water softened with
dissolved soap, which makes a very
good lather. Too hot water should
not be used, as it might crack the
glass. FIJI N II,
Have a bowl Of clean water to rinse
the glass in after washing it and II e
very fine polish be desired on it have
third bowl of cold water with lit
tie ammonia in it. Wash each arti.:
ole separately, rinse it well and dry
with a soft glass cloth. which should

When 1t is washed and dried polish

with silk handkerchief or with some
soft tissue paper.
How to Clean Silver-Have an
aluminium pan containing about two
gallons OF cold water. In this dissolve
a piece of washing soda about the
size Of an egg and heat the solution
to boiling point. Drop into this the
silver to be cleaned, taking care ito
keep the whole at boiling point. Let
the silver soak for three or four min

tom they had to form new, habit.
one that suited their conditions of
life. and in doing this changes, in
their appearances have taken place.
Down on the sea floor, instead of
swimming. they have to lie on one
side, and this continued change in the
position Of the body has brought
about change in the body itself
The newly-hatched skates swim In
the usual fashion. They turn on the
side only when they begin to live at
the bottom Of the sea. Before long
the body becomes fattened, and the
eyes and the mouth shift around II
they remained in the position they
were before the fish descended to the
bottom, they would be Of no use to
them. The fish, however, simply
adapt themselves to their condition Of
life Naturalists are agreed that this
is one Of the most remarkable phe-
nomena in the life history of any fish.
