To Really Cleanse tn. Aand..

Soap and water will not get dirt
out of the skin unless the scrubbing-
brush is used more vigorously than 1t
should be. and the soap Of . sort
that injuries the skin. Much-soiled
hands may be cleansed thoroughly
with a mush made of raw cornmeal
and milk-the sourer the better-or
in tepid water with oatmeal and soap,
or by rubbing them gently with q
mixture Of giycerin. rose water and
benxoin. Little wads of absorbent
cotton are excellent for cleansing the
hands, with = glycerine or cold cream
preparation, AMI after they are clean
and Thoroughly dry one may rub In
with the gentlest Of touch-a good
skin food where the hands need 1t.
In any case, the skin food or cold
cream is advisable to use on the
hands at night. when sleeping-gloves
may be put on afterward.

weight OF one turbine unit is about
$4,000 pounds. The lower ring itself
weighs about 900 pounds, and be-
tween 1t and an upper ring of similar
size is steel cylinder embedded in
the massive concrete. which is the
basement OF the power house. The 80
turbines develop over 100000 horse
power, and this is increased by two
auxiliary smaller wheels. which also
energize the exciters Of the electric
generators. This is over three times
as much power as Is developed In any
one other water-power plant in the
world. After deductlng slight losses
of energy and very large reserve.

commercial use.
At the lower end of the great power
house is colossal lock with the same
width as those at Panama and with
lift of 40 feet instead Of the lift of %
feet 4 inches In any one lock at the
canal. Beside the lock will be NAM

elevated above the new water level

Work Of Many Years.

The origin of that water power de-
velopment is most interesting. 1t is
the result OF remarkably persistent la
Dor on the part of the people OF that
community through several decades.
In the middle of the last century the
value of the vast quantity of power
going to waste there was recognized
and various unsuccessful movements
to utilize 1t were launched. Then ten
years were spent in work which was
successful at last. A corporation
which really was a trustee for the peo-
Pile made preliminary surveys. collect
ed data, obtained franchise act from
congress-, and searched for capital to
build the water power installation. 1t
obtained It's funds from the municipal
treasures of Keokuk and of Hamil-

ect Mr. Hugh L. Cooper. who organ

cause OF his record of successful

places.

There is a happy augury for the

clothing. Shopping is under a lucky
star.
Women in the professions should

brilliant achievement.

Persons whose birthdate it is

HOROSCOPE.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER II. 1913.

Venus and Jupiter rule powerfully
for good today, according to astrol-
ogy. 1t is an suspicious time for
business and social ventures of every
sort.
The planet which is believed to
govern commerce and to assure sue
cess is in a sign powerful for good to
mortals, the seers say, and its influ-
ence is conducive to keen foresight
New enterprises are under fortunate
government.
The sign is a lucky one for lawyers
and college professors, church digni-
taries and scientists. 1t is predicted
that sweeping changes will be made
in certain religious observances that
have been the subject of widespread
discussion.
The government is favorable for all
who make appeal to public approval
This includes players, singers and
orators. 1t is an suspicious day for
first appearances. There is an aug
ury of sudden fame for a new prima
donna and success for musical en-
tertainments, which will eclipse the
atrical ventures.
While the configuration prevails

Here she discovered. and her
audience discovered, too, that she had
rare gift for public speaking.
People at the time spoke with Won
der of the wild eloquence, the vehe-
mence, the amazing vocabulary, the
vituperation poured forth with fury
and intensity of passion by this
gentlefaced young woman. They
called her the Anna Dickinson of the
Populist party and in the campaign
of 1890 she was the most influential
political leader and succeeded In
forcing the retirement of Governor
Ingalls,. Shortly after this she was
appointed president of the State
Board of Charities of Kansas, being
the first woman to hold such a POSI-
ton in the United States.
Twenty years ago she wos' put up
by her supporters for election to the
United States Senate and the same
year was elected vice-president of the

less, broken down in health, and. but
for the charity of friends, a public
charge.
The trouble with most Of US is that
we are SO selfish that we think Of
everything in terms of self.
Selflshness always defeats its own
end. He who withholds the fragrance
of his wealth and his love and help
fulness finds that he loses the very
thing he hoped to gain. The very
foundation of his heart dries up and
his finer nature petrifies.
There is a tradition that King Sol
ONION received a gift of a costly vase
from the Queen of Sheba which con-
tanned an elixir, one drop OF which
would restore health and prolong life
indefinitely. Solomon's friends heard
about this wonderful nfe-restoring
elixir, and when death was near they
begged for a drop of the precious
fluid, but Solomon always refused
because he feared that by opening
the vase to get a drop the rest of the
precious elixir might evaporate- Al
| length he became very i'll and bade
his servants bring the vase, wher
behold, the precious contents had al
| evaporated.
Things are so constituted in thi.
1
end. The fragrance and the beauty
do not exist in the unopened bud. Il
is only when the bud opens up its
petals and begins to give itself out
to others that its beauty and frag-
rance are developed.
Refuse to open your purse and soon
you cannot open your sympathy. Re-
fuse to love and you will soon lose
the power of love; your affections are
paralyzed, your sympathy atrophied,
from selfish Withholding and disuse,
and you become a moral cripple, but
the moment you fling open the door of
your heart and allow the rose to
send out, without stint, the fragrance
and beauty OF your sympathy and
helpfulness upon every passerby,
whether pauper or millionaire, you
begin to develop power.
If we do our level best every day,
if we try to make every day count,
every day a red letter day IN our
lives, If we are kind and considerable
and helpful. sympathetic. encour-
aging, to those about us, we have
nothing to fear. however near the end
of the life path may be.
