oueere.t Town In EnoIsnd

The most curious town in England is Northwich There is not a straight street nor, Ii fact, a straight house in the place. Every part of it has the ap- pearance of an earthquake. Northwich is the center of the salt industry in Cheshire, England. On nearly all sides of the town are big salt works, with their engines pumping hundreds of thousands of gallons of brine every week. At a depth of some POO or 800 feet are immense subterranean lakes of brine, and as the contents of these are pumped and pumped away the up per crust of earth is correspondingly weakened, and<the result is an occasion al subsistence. These subsidences have pulling" effect on the nearest build tngs, and they are drawn all ways and give the town an extremely dissipated appearance.

How can [ Cake rust off steeI7

Kerosene Is a good medium for re moving rust from steel. but The al 1ticle will require polishing afterward. Rust ed steel should be soaked in any kind of oil for some hours or overnight if thought necessary; then it should be washed and scrubbed in hot soapsuds to remove all grease and finally be rubbed with sandpaper or finer emery to give polish. If the rust has eaten into the steel, then there is nothing to do but to send it to be refinished.

They Neglect Their Bowels And The

Hot weather has a very weakening
effect on women. They are too Ian
guild to exercise, and as a result have
appetite only for foods that seem light
and tasty, such as salads and other
cold connections. But these frequent
ly produce Indigestion, and with 1t
comes constipation.
1t is especially in hot weather that
women should keep up the highest
standard of health, for it is necessary
to have strength to resist the heat.
THE first essentials are good diges-
ton and regular bowel movement, and
then good red blood and steady nerves
will follow. The best way to obtain
these is not by An over-indulgence In
fruits, which often are not ripe, Oh

to what this course would be. 1t is as
sumed that Mr.. Lind might enter the

Keen interest is being evinced as to
what the attitude of Washington will
be in the face of President Huerta's
defiance and speculation is divided as
to whether Mr.. Lind will be recalled
or be permitted to continue as far as
he can and thus force the issue upon
President Huerta. Mexicans generally
of the conservative class appear to
believe that Huerta will not drive
Lind from the country but will be
