If the national campaign against tu'

The fear of soiling white curtains
and also Of admitting dust and dirt IN
to the rooms where it can settle on

much responsible for the closed win

1t is hard to overcome prejudice, and
harder still to root out an old estaD-

elementary facts of hygiene should
be taught plainly and simply to elder

Gated.
To abolish curtains altogether from
the windows Of private dwellings
would be, perhaps, too much to expect
of the present generation, but if this
ideal cannot yet be attained, they
might be made of some less expensive
or more readily renewable material.

and sufficient water to mix, using a
knife for the mixing, not the hands.
Line a creased or buttered basin with

Cover the custard with more of the

DANGER for Him.

It was on a crowded car one day
last summer that a middle-aged wo-
man, carrying a fretful baby, was
forced to squeeze herself into small
space left vacant beside dapper
youth of possibly twenty years. His
countenance had all the expression of
his immaculate white suit, except for
a look of disgust which he assumed as
the baby, in it's restlessness, would
touch him with foot or hand. Finally
he turned toward the woman and in
qui::ad, in a tone audible to those
near him:
"Ah, beg pawdon, madam, but has
this child NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS."
The nurse was a motherly looking
woman. CHANGING compassionately at
him through her gold trimmed specta-
cles, she remarked, meditatively::
well, now, don't know, young
man, but-ah-it might be to you.
She's teething!"

HOLD RECORD FOR FASTING
Two Eccentric Englishmen Who Prac.
ticed seIf-DenaI Through Many
Years of Their Lives,

The most persistent faster of all
time was probably Roger Crabb, who
lived in the time of the common
wealth.
In order to carry out his ideas most
effectually he sold off his stock in
trade, distributed the proceeds among
the poor and took up his residence in
a hut near Ickenham, where he lived
on three farthings week.
Instead of strong drinks and
vines" says the eccentric Roger, 81
give the old man a cup of water and
instead of roast mutton and rabbit
give him broth thickened with bran
and pudding made with bran and
turnip leaves chopped together"
Vigorous health was the result says
the London Chronicle, but his Austen
ton from food was regarded with
such suspicion that on one occasion
he narrowly escaped being burned
alive as a wizard.
Another famous hermit who man
aged to reduce diet to very simple
proportions was James Lucas, with
whom many of us are doubtless
familiar as Mr. Mopes in Charles
Dickens tom Tiddler's Ground
Lucas lived mainly upon bread and
penny buns, though to these were
added at times eggs and herrings and
gin. A basket slung from the roof
out of reach of the rats served him as
larder, and he abjured washing, all
furniture and clothes, wrapping him
self in an old blanket.
A generosity with gin made him the
friend Of all the tramps in the king
dom and eventually he had to employ
two armed watchmen to protect him
from their attentions. A hermit with
a bodyguard is something of a para
dox.

SMALL VALUE OF HUMAN LIFE
According to legal Decisions Few
Men Need Have High Opinion Of
Themselves.

That human life is cheap would
appear from a study undertaken by
we'll known lawyer of the legal deci-
sions handed down in this country
with reference to the cash value" of
man.
It is estimated that at ten years
of age boy of the laboring class
is worth $2,O61,42; at fifteen, s4,26346;
at twenty-five, $5,4SS,O3, from which
time the decline is steady, man Of
seventy, by this legal decision scale,
rating at only $1713! BY the same prac-
tical method of computation one eye
is worth $4,000; one leg, $4,000; two
legs, $4,000; one arm, $4,000; one
hand, $4,000; one finger, $1,000, and
permanent disability, $4,000. This, it
is pointed out, is merely an average as
far as decisions have been examined.
It should be added that the esti-
mates of the value Of q mans life
are based upon an idea not Of his
value to himself, but OF his value to
the community. The figures in in
dividual cases would vary greatly
with reference to the fact whether or
not the persons death caused hard
ship to others who were dependent up
on him.
The value of a man to himself is,
it is further pointed out, unimportant
after he is dead-from legal point
of view. His value to society at large
cannot be considered in a cash esti.
mate, since that kind of value de-
ponds upon other than physical re-
sources. His value to those who look
to him for support can alone be esti-
mated on the material side.

Sinecure Had Lasted LONG.

Pensions are not the only things
commanded and forgotten. An in.
quisitiye member Of the British baxes
of commons was struck one day by
the presence of a policeman in one
of the Hobbies. He wondered why
this particular lobby should always
have guardian strolling up and
down and made inquiries. The rec
ords Of the house were searched and
1t was found that fifty years previous
ly, when the lobby was being decorat-
ed, policeman had been stationed
there to keep members from soiling
their clothes. The order never having
been countermanded, the constable
had kept his beat for half a century.

RESINOL RELIEVED
ITCHING INSTANTLY
And Completely Cured Skin Humor.

II you have eczema or any other

evidence Of what Resinol Soap and
Resinol Ointment can do for you is
the word of one who was cured by
them after weeks of suffering. Adolph
Schoen, 742 Shepherd Ave-, Brook

Nov. /, 1912-"At first little red
spots were seen on my arms and body,

every day. They itched me so much
that I scratched myself until l bled.
There were times when l stood up all

The soothing, healing balsams in
Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap,
penetrate every tiny pore Of the skin,
clearing it of all impurities, driving
away eczema, rashes, ringworm, psori-
asis, and other eruptions, and making
pimples and blackheads impossible.
