PICKED OUT THE WRONG EYE
Physician Meant Well Enough but He
Had Left the Motorman Sc
rlously Handicapped.

Frank e. Payne, a member OF the
state railroad commission, said when
investigating a trolley accident re-
Gently, he was told OF motorman on
work car who was running at high
speed when the trucks left the rails
because Of snow and sleet, and the
car was thrown to the side of the
right of way, bringing it up against a
telephone pole.
THE motorman was not seriously
hurt, but was cut and bruised about
the head and face by flying glass. He
was carried to physicians office
where his wounds were dressed and
bandaged. When the physician had
placed the last pin, he asked the
wounded man II he felt like he could
walk.
"'Sure, l can walk all right re-
turned the patient, but l wish you
would fix those bandages SO can
see.'
"'Why, man. returned the physi-
clan, I left one of your eyes uncov-
cred for the purpose

Cause for CONSERVATION.

The inexperienced district school
teacher had exhausted all other ex.
pedients for the maintenance of dis
cipline. Going out into the school
yard, she broke Off good-sized switch
that was growing there and admins
tered primitive punishment to Jimmy
Kelley.
There were strange expressions Of
Mortified amazement on the faces oil
the children, and when school was
dismissed at noon they gathered in
excited groups and talked in whispers
Finally the teachers curiosity could
stand 1t no longer. Calling Henry
Thomas to her, she demanded the
cause of the discussions.
"Why-why-why, teacher" he
stammered, "that-that switch you
licked Jimmy with-that was the tree
We all set out last Arbor .day."-Har.

year and come in handy for any num-
Der of occasions. 1t is a hat not too
dressy for very informal wear, but
which lends itself to those that re-
quire high-style also. 1t is ideal for
the tourist who wants to go about
without much baggage and still be
prepared to dress for state occasions.
Another very new model, in which
roses are wonderfully placed, shows
large hemp shape with concave un'
derbrim filled in with very large full
bloom roses. They are mounted fiat
against the underbrim, forming an en-
chanting frame for the face. The
crown is trimmed with full ruche Of
lace and that finishes the design. The
shape is made with special reference
to this method Of trimming.
This is distinctly midsummer model,
that is, it is meant for summer wealth
er and Is therefore not as useful as
the turban. JULIA BoTTOMLEY.

ECZEMA IN RED BLoTCHES

205 Kanter Ave-, Detroit, Mich
with eczema 1t began in my hair
first with red blotches, then scaly,
spreading to my face. The blotches
were red on my face, dry and scaly,
not large; on my scalp they were
larger, some scabby. They came on
my hands: The inside of my hands
were all little Jumps as though full of
shot about one-sixteenth of an inch
under the skin. Then they went to
the outside and between and all over
my fingers. It also began on the bot
toms Of my feet and the calves Of my
legs, and itch, oh, my! never had
anything like 1t and hope I never will
again. The itching was terrible. My
hands got so 1 could scarcely work.
81 tried different eczema ointments
but without results. I also took medi.
cine for 1t but 1t did no good. l saw
the advertisement for a sample OF

The shape fits the head closely and

satin outlines the shape about the

PRESENT FOR ENGAGED GIRL
An Apron to Slip on When Bride DoeS
Homework Is Always Ac-
ceptable.

A useful and attractive gift for an
engaged girl is an apron that may
be slipped on when the bride does
homework, and wishes to keep pre-
sentable. Just this type Of apron is
hard to buy, 30 is doubly acceptable.
Probably the most useful kind is
studio apron, such as is used by the
woman artist. Get good pattern
with sleeves reaching to the wrists
and cut without too much fullness.
Choose pink bingham of fine quality
or clear black and white stripe.
which always washes well.
For the former trim the neck
which should be cut slightly square
and sleeves with a two-inch insertion
of white embroidery, and fasten Mt
the back with white pearl buttons.
The black and white apron may be
trimmed with black bias bands, or
with white cotton bands embroidered
in a cross-stitch design in black.
A somewhat dressier apron, though
not so useful for protection, is made
like waitress apron, with straps
over the shoulders. A pretty effect
Is had with ecru or pale pink percale,
the straps embroidered in cross
stitch band that is carried on each
side to the bottom of the apron. The
hem at bottom and sides is finished
with a row Of two-chain stitch-bands.
Use several tones Of brown or red
mercerized cotton on the ecru apron,
and white or black on the pink one.

Let US do our yearly swear
ing ere the New Years rush begins,
dumping all the load we're bearing of
our plain and fancy sins. 1t has always
been the custom. from our evil ways to
steer. and our habits ill-dad bust EN-

bright Recording Angel suffers from che
writer's eramp, and a little timely
changel make his eyes glow like a

he files our VOWS away, when he sees
those DRdges piling up around him n
one day; and he signs: why can't those
critters shake their little lists of sins,
cut out cards, cigars and bitters, ere
the New Year rush begins? 1t is rough
upon a seraph to be working overtime,
and L sometimes wouldn't care if they
adhered to sin and crime" 1t is well to
