Why Have a Fall Cold2


The season of coughs and colds, Of
pneumonia and bronchitis, is approach
ing nay, is almost here. And why?
Because there is some peculiar un-
healthfulness in "fall air ?" No. Fall
air is the only air available at this time
of year. Because Of the drop in tenn
perature? That should make for
health rather than disease. Because
Of some mysterious force which science
has been unable to discover? Not at
all.
There is an increase in pulmony trou-
bles at this season simply because there
is an increase in the use Of bad air As
soon as the mercury quits trying to
outclimb the price Of beef people begin
to shut doors and nail down windows.
They wall out fresh air, because it is
cool air. In houses, street cars and Of
fees they breathe the same atmosphere
over and over again.
Naturally, any disease germs that
happen to be around get well distribut-
ed by this process. Naturally also,
such germs find easy loJgment on tbs.
sue devitalized by being deprived OF
oxygen. The annual crop Of throat
and lung trouble is the result.
Insist on fresh air, even at the cost
Of little discomfort, and you will go
far toward safeguarding yourself from
the coughs and colds Of autumn. Chi.

TASK CALLS FOR BRAVE MEN
Life-Savlng Service Instituted by
Uncle Sam offers No Tempta-
ton to the Timorous.
Copyright, 1913. by W. G. Chapman)

The sea and lake coasts Of the Unit
ed States, exclusive of the coast of
Alaska, have an extent of more than
10000 miles. More extended than the
coast of any other maritime country,
the waters touching the shores of the
United States are among the most
dangerous.
1t was for this reason that, in 1878,
congress formally established the life
saving service, at that time the only
institution of its kind in the world
under government control.
AS the service stands today, the
coastal regions of this country have
been divided in 10 district, each in
charge of a superintendent. Assistant
inspectors are also connected with
each division, being officers of the
| United States revenue service. In
many instances the revenue cutter
service assists the life-saving service
in rescue work.
At each of the 279 station is q
keeper, as well as a captain Of the
crew. Crews number from seven to
ten, according to the Importance of
the station in relation to the prev.
lence of danger, the total number OF
surfmen being 1861. At the head OF
the service is Sumner |. Kimball, gen
eral superintendent. Oliver NJ. MaXam
is assistant general superintendent.

S | FATIGUE A FOE TO BEAUTY
Woman Who Would Retain Charm
Should Avoid Allowing Herself
to Be Victim of OVerWork.

Overfatigue is a foe to beauty.
Even if there were no lasting effects
from it, which there are, wearied
look in a woman's face adds nothing
to her charm. Rather, it is as the APP
pearance of faded flower compared
with that of fresh one. The muscles
and muscular tissues become grad.
ually weak and show themselves with
particular perversity in ugly rings and
bags about the eyes, in a frightening
of the lines between the nose and
the mouth, and a general sagging.
Fatigue, too. has a direct effect upon
the stomach muscles, causing them to
sag also, and become unable to work
properly, and this, in turn, reflects
upon the complexion, rendering 1t sal
low and eventually blotched. So, /
say, avoid fatigue.
Rest whenever you can. Whatever
the routine of your day may be, it is
possible for you to snatch moment,
or, at least, a second or two, here and
there, of complete relaxation. Take
a long breath and relax, then go on
at tension if necessary, but it is rare
ly, very rarely, necessary, and there
| is a point to be made much Of Re
| sist tension.
Battle the tired face in cold water.
It stimulates circulation, and brings
relief, at least to ones feelings, even
! if its effect does not go very far be-
meath the surface. Hot water follow
ed by a cold dash is also refreshing
AM especially is to be recommended
to the woman of nervous tempera-
ment. A few drops of camphor in ice
water makes an excellent lotion for
the regeneration of the tired face
muscles but it should be followed by
the application of good face cream
Remove the cream with dry, soft
cloth and behold, you feel like new
woman.

of the golden week in her fair young
life when she had met Love. and well

Marie had closed the window as the
rain began to fall. Suddenly there

the window, opened it. With ram

from a table, put on his hat and start

cross roads.
Marie was in the lighted room as
soon as the man was out of sight. She
noticed the padlocked door beyond,
found heavy iron bar, burst in the
door, and, extending the lantern saw
her lover, handcuffed, lying on a

cage crumbs on the sill 1t had a
hamper to one foot so it could not NY
nor wander far away. Marie placed
Il in the grated box resting on the
porch roof, first fondling it caress-

She sat down and covered her face
with her hands at a remembrance or
her aunt's illusions, and thought or
how much, indeed, she cherished the
dove. Her aunt knew only part OF
the story. Marie secretly wondered
what she would say if she knew all of
it.
She had met young Adds Blake at
village party two months previous.
There never seemed pair so mated
as they to one another After a week
of picnic pleasures and woodland
roamings that now came up before
Marie's imagination like some beaut-
