Courtesy is doing that which moth

human kindness. Courtesy springs
from the heart; if the mind prompts
the action, there is reason; if there
be a reason, it is not courtesy, for
courtesy has no reason. Cour' esy is
good will; and good will is prompted
by heart full of love to be kind.

To eradicate discolorations caused by
high or dark collars there is no remedy
more effective than the common or
garden variety of lemon juice. Select
firm, juicy lemons and apply the juice
to the skin after all traces of dust or

also used with much success. although

A PROBLEM IN FINANCE.
The Question That Lincoln Fired al

The Question That Lincoln Fired at
Secretary Chase.
The mysteries of finance were not
always clear to Mr.. Lincoln, WHOSE
craftsmanship was of another sort.
But his keen sense of humor would not
permit him to regard the difficult sub
ject as too profound for an occasional
joke.
One day Secretary Chase of the
treasury department found on a desk
in his office what at first appeared to
be q picture of an internal machine"
1t looked like a goose, but on further
examination 1t proved to be a drawing
OF an ingenious invention for turning
gold eagles into greenbaeks, with the
secretary himself working 1t and slow
ly feeding it with yellow boys at one
end, while the government currency
came out at the other end. whirling
about like the leaves of autumn.
While he was examining it the pres
ident came III, as he daily did, for on
sultation. Mr.. Chase handed him the
drawing. and his yes twinkled as he
recognized the likeness of the secre-
tary.
Capital joke, isn't 1t, Mr.. Chaser
he exclaimed.
IA joker repeated the irate secre
tary. I'D give a thousand dollars to
know who left 1t herei"
"Oh. no." said Mr.. Lincoln temper
ately, ''you would hardly do that"

nAPoLEoN'S ARMY EAGLES.
They Were Patterned After the An

They Were Patterned After the An
eient Symbol of the Caesars.
Eagles lasted only from 1905 to
Waterloo. Before then 1t had been the
custom In armies to carry huge un-
wieldy nags mounted on poles which.
while they afforded a rallying point for
their corps. also drew the enemy's fire.
II remained for Napoleon to revive the
ancient symbol of the Caesars.
At first an eagle vas presented to
every battalion of infantry and every
SQUADRON of horse. But owing to the
number of eagles captured this allow
ance was cut down. All battalion
eagles were withdrawn and one eagle
was carried by each regiment of foot
and cavalry. In 1872 a still further
reduction was made and In some cases
line regiments were ordered to leave
their eagles in their arsenal. These
standards were also taken from all
regiments of light cavalry and one
eagle sufficed occasionally for an In
fantry brigade.
The eagle itself was eight inches in
height and nine inches across the
wings. 1t stood on a brass block three
inches square and weighed three and a
half pounds.
Modern colors. cumbrous as they are.
are as nothing compared to the old
ones. which were as difficult to hide as
the big drum. Thus there existed a
regular system for saving eagles.
Sometimes. when the tide of war ran
adversely. they were unscrewed and
put into haversacks or great coat
pockets. At other times they were
buried. thrown into ponds OF rivers.
broken up. hidden in hollow trees. and,
most humiliating of all, stuffed into
some dead horse. to be hauled out
subsequently. -Harper's Weekly.

The Primary colors.

Primary colors are the colors into
which white light Is separated by the
dispersion of a prism. Those named
by Newton are red, orange, yellow,
green, blue. indigo and violet Artists
reduce these to ~three-red, yellow and
blue. Scientists generally consider red.
green and blue to represent the pri-
mary color sensations. and In n the
ory there are supposed to be three sets
of nerves In the retina which car re-
spond to these three colors. The idea
of three primary colors is that from
the combination of these three all hues
may be produced which are to be found
in white light.

Rubber COMPLEXION Brushes.

There has been q marked improve
ment in the rubber brushes for the
complexion, the body and the teeth.
To begin with, the newest styles have
flexible backs of perforated rubber
and are oval In shape. The brush por-
ton, instead of having a series Of
rubber teeth, has irregular knife-like
ridges. These brushes can be bought
without the handle, or a handle Of imi-
tation ivory can be attached, which
will add greatly to the comfort and
convenience of the user There Is
quite as much demand for the bath
size, to be used In rubbing the body,
as for the smaller face size, which
brings the blood to the tissues of the
skin in such a satisfactory way. Wo-
men who are particularly ~fastidious In
regard to hygiene like these brushes
because they IA be easily and quickly
sterilized by dipping them into a solu-
ton Of carbolic acid. The smaller
brushes sell for 20 cents and a dollar.
and the larger bath brush with the re-
movable handle retails for 50. The
toothbrushes made In the same general
style are no more expensive than the
regulation product, which sells for 35
cents.

The Art of Resting.

Few women know how to rest as
they should. They think that they
must undress and go to bed to be
thoroughly comfortable. This is a mis-
take, provided there is a taboret or
little footstool in the room on which
the feet may rest, while the other part
of the body is supported by a chair.
Any one can read and rest comfortably
In this position. To gain the max
imum of rest in the minimum of time
women should copy the lnelegant but
healthful trick of the masculine
drones and occasionally put their feet
higher than their heads.
