COCA COLA HABIT, A GHOST.

We have all heard of ghosts, but none
of us have ever seen one. It's the same
way with coca cola 'fiends;" you can
hear about them but you might search
for them until dCom's day and you
would never find one. Physicians who
have treated hundreds of thousands OF
drug-habit cases, including opium, NOR
phine, cocaine, alcohol, ETC., say that
they have never seen case where the
use of Coca-Cola has SO fastened itself
upon the individual as to constitute a
habit in the true sense of the word. Al
though millions of glasses of COca-Cola
are drunk every year, no Coca-Cola
fiends have ever made themselves Wis
ible at the doors of the sanitariums for
the treatment of drug habits.
The Coca-Cola habit is analogous to
the beefsteak habit and TO the straw
berry habit and the ice cream habit.
People drink Coca-Cola first because
they see it advertised and thereafter
because it tastes good and refreshes
their minds and bodies. They drink it
when they can get it and contentedly
do without it when they can't get it.
If you had ever witnessed the rawlings
of a real drug fiend when deprived OF
his drug, If you had ever observed the
agony he suffers, you would never
again be so unfair as to mention Coca
Cola in the same breath with the
"habit-fOrming" drugs.-Adv.

Gard Cases.

The thin lingerie frock demands a
cardcase of handkerchief linen, en-
broidered with a very fine design;
those done in eyelet embroidery are
the most effective. If you do the tiny
flowers and foliage in solid work, pad
the petals first with darning cotton
and cover this with fine mercerized
cotton. Scallop the edges, using the
buttonhole stitch, and whipstitch the
sides together.
With the one piece frock or tailored
costume should be carried a card case
of heavy linen. The design is not
SO fine on these and can be done with
white or colors.
For instance, if you choose a card
case of natural colored linen, the de-
sign can be effectively done in white,
brown or dark blue. There are few
designs to be worked with the Bull
garian colors, and these are extreme
ly effective when done in the brilliant
hues on a background of tan linen.

Jackson Monument Guns Are Bronze Smoothbores

WITHIN the circular fence which
w girdles the green mound on which
the Jackson monument stands in La
fayette square are four old field guns
pointing outward from the corners of
the white stone pedestal. They are
slightly depressed.
The guns are bronze, muzzle-load-
ing smoothbores, with a caliber of
about two inches. They are crusted
with the gray-green which comes to
cannon with age and lends charm to
antique ordinance.
The carriages have been freshly
painted, the wood gray and the iron
parts black. The carriages are well
preserved. 1t seems impossible that
they can be the original carriages of
these guns. The wheels have wooden
hubs as big as beer kegs. with four
teen spokes and seven felloes. The
lynch pin through the spindle is of a
pattern that was superseded several
years ago by the new artillery hub
cap fastening. The elevating screws,
square wooden axles. square timber
trails, the brackets for trail hand
spike, the sings for hammer STATS and
the trunnion seats and fastenings
seem to mark these gun carriages as
of the Civil war type of field artil-
lery.

southeast and the northwest corners

Problem of Feeding the Help in Large Hotels

IlTIE problem of feeding the help in
1 large hotels has perplexed mana
gers in every city in the world said
the head of one of Washington's
largest hotels the other day. "The
question is now being considered by
many of the large hotels in this coun-
try whether it is cheaper to raise the
salary of the employees and not to fur
nish them with meals or to provide
regular meals for them.
"In many large hotels there is a
class of help that is fed in the kitchen,
while other employees have special
dining rooms. The chambermaids,
bellboys, porters, scrubwomen and all
employees of the lower grade are fed
usually from the helps kitchen. One
of the leading hotels of Chicago al
lows the first officers 500 per month
for their meals, and they order from

are almost prohibitive, this amount is
not too much to give any officer fair

BETTER THAN ANY COSMETIC
Combination of Repose and ReIaxa-
tion Is the Only Beauty Secret
That Is Worth Knowing.

There is a beauty secret, not found
in cosmetics, and which does not lin
ger in the perfume-laden hangings Of
the parlor of the masseuse. 1t is a
secret which any woman can possess,
and it's magic effect is almost in
stantly noted. The secret is merely
a combination of repose and relaxa-
ton.
A restful woman always appears to
advantage. There is culture in a re-
pose of manner that makes itself felt
both at home and in public. There
is a suggestion of reserve intellectual
strength, more impressive than the
uneasiness of the woman who feels
that her tongue or her body must be
in motion to let the world know she
is in it.
At the same time, the wear and
tear will leave the marks of strain
on complexion and figure, which no
creams or lotions can remove. To
grow old gracefully and beautifully,
learn to take things easy. Repose is
more identifying than rouge, and re-
Taxation more bodybuilding than
massage.-Leslie's Weekly.

EXCELLENT FOR TENDER SKIN
Victim of Sunburn Will Find Relief
In This Preparation. Which Is
Home Remedy.

A preparation that will suit most
tender skins or skin that has been
sunburned is made by mixing togeth-
er four ounces of pure almond meal,
an ounce of powdered orris, two
ounces of powdered CASTLE soap, one
half drachm oil of bergamot, four
drops of bitter almond oil and a quar-
ter of a drachm of extract of musk.
Only tepid water should be used on
the skin and after wetting it rub on
some of the above preparation in
stead of using soap, using the hands
to make the application because a
wash cloth usually causes friction and
this, added to a sunburned skin,
would make it sore and tender. More
water is used and the skin is cleansed
with the hands and finally rinsed sew
eral times and with old soft towels
patted dry. Then a mere suspicion
of cold cream is massaged into the
skin and go left for the night
Any girl or woman who will be
careful to protect her skin and care
for it as just described even though
it is naturally of a dry texture will
not burn or tan nearly as quickly as
will the girl with the oily skin. One
would think that a girl with oily skin
would not burn as readily as the girl
with the dry skin on account Of sufi-
cient oily moisture, but nevertheless
1t has often been proven that she
burns even more quickly. Why this
is SO is because of the difference in
the skin tissues.

Gas Ruoy's Long Drift.

One of the strangest cruises ever
taken By a gas buoy is recorded by
the government IF Canada. The buoy
in question, located near Lewis, oppo-
site Quebeo, on the st. Lawrence
river, was carried away by ice in the
spring of 1911. 1t was believed to
have sunk.
In the spring of this year it was
picked up on the coast of New South
Wales, Australia, a distance of $4,000
miles. During it's two years drifting
it was never reported as being seen,
although it's height above the water
was fully Is feet.
Caught by the currents of the North
Atlantic, it must have travelled south

southernmost end of the continent,
and thence around Cape Horn to the

thrown ashore.-Popular Mechanics

THAT the failure to destroy house

ion of Dr. l.. 0. Howard, chief of the
bureau of notomology of the United

probably has made more exhaustive

scientist in America.
Doctor Howard is watching with
interest the campaign against the pest
and believes that the preventive
methods being urged constitute the
only feasible means of eradicating this
source of danger to mankind.

Draped Lace Tunics.


Although, perhaps, the lace tunic
has a tendency to age its wearer, it
has compromising merits which rec
ommend it to women of middle age
and even younger women who have a
tendency to stoutness. For the close
fitting pointed tunic of black lace cut
with the upper part in the form of a
coat tends to make the figure look
slim in manner that many, alas, find
eminently desirable as years come
fast upon them.
The favorite lace employed is Chan
lilly. and when one knows how to
drape artistically nothing can be more
elegant. On the contrary, nothing
can be dowdier than drapery which
seeks to be artistic and fails lament
ably in the attempt.
