If you know how to spend less than
you get you have the philosophers
stone.
Economy is the parent Of integrity.
Of liberty and Of ease and the beau
teous sister Of temperance. Of cheerful
ness and Of health.
Willful waste is cruel and crafty
demon that gradually involves her fol-
lowers in dependence and debts and so
letters them with irons that enter their
Utmost souls.
Economy Is procedure by which
certain sum of money can be saved
and waste. on the other hand, by which
the same sum Of money is dissipated.
To illustrate, farmer wishes to
buy an ak. The local merchants price
is $40. but the farmer can buy IAN"
ak from the retail catalogue house for
$1.25. He Is economical and is going
to save that Is cents.
Abandons Machinery In Field.
The previous summer the economical
farmer bought new mower with
which to harvest his hay and paid
therefor $S5.
The machine was nice and new and
shiny, and when the farmer completed
the cutting Of his hay he promptly I'M
hitched his team and abandoned the
pretty new mower to the tender ele-
ments Of the bayfield,, and there 1t re-
mains, the seat and tongue protrudIng
from huge snowdrift.
That seems to be case where waste
took economy by the hand and led 1t
out into the fields and lost 1t.
Neglect 10 Noticeable.
1t is regrettable fact that the prac-
tice is not uncommon; that it is the
rule rather than the exception among
farmers.
Look out Of the window Of any
train as you pass through the country,
and almost the first thing that meets
the eye is neglected piece of fam
machinery standing in a vacant field
unprotected from the rains Of the
summer. the winds Of the fall. the
sleet, ice and snow of winter and the
mud and mire Of spring.
What must be the condition Of that
machinery when in tho course NJ time
the farmer is again ready to put it
into service?
Have rust, neglect and the elements
added to its value and efficiency?

SAID OF WOMAN.
A Man Who Grew Shorter.

The death Is reported Of Albert Mills.
known as 1.-THE brittle man Of Birming-
ham," For twenty-six years Mills had
suffered from an obscure disease which
caused a shrinlIage Of bodily stature
and made him the object Of study by
medical men from all over the world.
Mills was ffty-eight years Of age. The
disease was diagnosed as osteomalacia.
and its chief symptom is the disap-
pearance Of lime from the body, leav-
ing the bones soft and misshapen. 1t
became. impos Die for him to move,
and for over fourteen years he had
been confined to his bed. Before his
illness he was FIVE feet eight inches In
height, but he gradually shrank unit!
at the time Of his death he was under
four feet high, having lost twenty inch
es in twenty six years.-Pall Mall Ga

A Hint For Golfers.

A woman golfer who owns a beau
tiful. smooth complexion attributes the
preservation of her skin to her plan Of
dissolving little isinglass in hot milk,
bathing her face in it and allowing 1t
to dry on before she ventures out Any
feeling of contraction soon passes off,
and the isinglass forms an invisible
coating to the skin and protects it from
the ravages Of the wind. Instead Of
isinglass either gelatin or white of egg
beaten to froth may be employed
The latter is an excellent remedy
against all chapping and is in itself
cleanser.> A good plan after the face
has been exposed to the wind or cold
is to sponge it with rosewater into
which has been dropped little eau de
cologne or lavender water. or as fur
ther emollient apply cold milk to the
skin.

Mllady's
Mirror



The hot, drying. scorching rays Of
summer work havoc with the CON-
plexion, and the girl who wants to
have a pretty skin to match her soft,
transparent white and family tinted
summer gowns must take great deal
Of care Of herself.
Fashions change. It is true, but all
girls love pretty, dimpled elbows, even
II the sleeves displaying them are not
to be worn. and fortunately there Is
nothing easier than to bring sharp.
thin, bony elbow joints into shape.
Where arms are too thin the use Of
cocoa butter is to be recommended.
This. being byproduct Of the cocoa
bean, Is nOurishing and fattening. but
the skin must be In condition to receive
1t properly. Thorough cleansing, sof
tening and opening of the pores are nee
essary, that full benefit from the appli-
cation may be felt. Cloths wrung out
Of warm water should be applied at
night. They should be held on until
a little cool. then warmed again until
the skin feels soft and is pink. Then
rub with generous amount of cocoa
butter. slightly warmed. in each palm.
the opposite elbow placed in the hand.
Use the motion around and around un-
til all greasy feeling Is gone. This
takes quite awhile. for cocoa butter
is rather greasy, but little practice
will soon prove that the process is not
too tiresome
The rubbing may be continued up
from the wrist If the forearm be a lit
tie too thin. and from there to the
shoulder where the whole arm seems
to require the addition of more flesh,
but If only the elbow joint is bony, just
on that joint will answer.

Tinted Face Powders.

OF recent times the Parisiennes seem
to have gone mad over tinted face
powders and tinted wigs. The very
latest idea is a pale lemon yellow face
powder. which is supposed to give an
extraordinary softness to the skin.
An artistic but highly unnatural cy-
clamen pink rouge is used in conjunc-
ton with the pale yellow powder. and
the throat and neck are coated with
flesh pink and pure white powder.
This peculiar makeup is intended for
evening use only.
The lemon yellow and cyclamen pink
makeup look effective on fair haired
woman who possesses pair Of dark
gray eyes.

Deprecated 50 Per Cent.

Have they not deprecated it at least
80 per cent in every way? Neglect Of
this kind is willful waste.
There is no better field in all the
world in which the farmer can prac.
tice economy than In the proper care
Of his machinery.
Some farmers protect their machin-
cry all right from the elements. They
haul It in under shed.
The barnyard fowls have also discov.
cred this mice shed" and find that
machinery makes the incest kind Of
roosting place, with the result that
when the machines are again brought
out into the sunlight they are things
Of sOrdid appearance rather than OF
worth and beauty.
Machinery Rusts Out.
The back door robs the house, and
the back door leads to the machinery
shed and to the open fields. Go out
and see II your machinery is protected
from both the weather and barnyard
dirt.
Remember 1t is better for machinery
to wear out than to rust out Saving
Is cents on an ak and losing $50 on
a moving machine is false economy.
the practice Of which leads past the
gate Of thrift and industry and up to
the door Of "woeful want and willful
waste" and to the f1reside of Incidence
and neglect.
The man who neglects and abandons
his farm machinery in the field Is not
only the most indolent man in the
world. but also the most stupid.
And the strangest part Of it all Is
that man will admit his Incidence.
but will fight If called stupid.
He sort Of persuades himself to be-
lieve that Incidence cherishes all the
peaceful virtues and that without de-
stroying the others it merely suspends
their functions.
Be Frank With Dealer.
Be frank and open and manly with
yourself and ask your dealer to be
the same.
Then there will be more consumers
will profit by it. So will the retail mer-
chant and also the consumer, citi-
zens Of the town. the professional man
and the employee. as they will be prof
itably employed and earning money.
When the citizens Of town have
money in the bank or jingling in their
pockets town worth while Is in evil
dence: farming community worth
while is also very noticeable.

FRIVOLOUS WOMEN EAiBARRAss.
ING.

A London letter sets forth with con-
vincing detail the embarrassments in
flicted upon those responsible for the
! conduct of the war by the sclf-con-
scious activity and intrusive insist
ence of women of wealth and title,
who crave the excitement and distinc-
tion of being associated with the great
| military drama In manner which ad-
| mits them to the actual scene of hos
tilities.
The only capacity In which women
can go to the war zone in England
is that OF nurses. Titled ladies who
have been foremost in London's friv-
hastened to the. scene of slaughter.
There is the Duchess of Westminster,
for instance, young and pretty and
willful, who looks bewitching in her
version of a nurses garb. and who has
taken with her her favorite wolf
hound There is the Dowager Ouch
ess OF Sutherland, who, after going out
as nurse, became engaged to a
young officer. That outcome Of her
adventure had no influence whatever
in discouraging feminine volunteers.
, 1t Is intimated that the titled nurs-
es often create n center of demoraliza.
ton wherever they move among the
forces in the field of war. Your
brave fighting man usually is suscep-
tible. This is the case especially
when he is young. When titled
nurse appears, with her retinue. or
with present of delicacies for the
| sick. or with an offer Of services per-
haps not suited to the occasion. very
few are the officers who will be frank
with her and send her packing" The
probabilities are that military duties
will be neglected while gallant Of
| ficers serve tea and pay pretty cour-
tesies-the battlefield emulating the
ballroom. This is very annoying to
seasoned soldiers and others mindful
of the serious nature of the existing
situation.
I Lady Dorothy Fielding. the young
daughter of the Earl of Denbigh,
presents fascinating picture. attired
in her field nurses uniform, and is
said to be given to chattering with
obsequious officers instead Of attend
ing to work. No one Of the titled
volunteers is Florence Nightingale.
f, But there is q woman of rank who
is helpful! to wounded soldiers. The
queen Of the Belgians obtained the
diploma of physician and took two
years course Of training as a nurse.
Her ministrations are as practical and
as helpful as those of the trained
Red Cross nurses and the Sisters Of
| Charity.

PURE DRINKING WATER.

1t has come to be accepted that the
federal government cannot 90 into q
state and dictate to the people just
how they shall live. even though It be
for their own welfare and the pro-
lection of their health. AS far as To-
cal health laws are concerned each
state Is responsible.
However. when it comes to matters
where more than one state is con-
cerned, where the welfare Of one
state is being menaced by the care
lessness of another, and in all mat
ters relating to interstate commerce,
the federal government has full con-
troll.
Many states have no laws regarding
the protection OF water supplies. The
federal government ,on the other
hand, has regulations which apply to
all water furnished to the public for
drinking purposes on trains or boats
engaged in interstate traffic. The gov
ernment requires that only pure and
safe water shall be furnished for
drinking purposes. and in order that
there may be no question as to what
pure water is, the treasury depart
ment, upon the recommendation of
the federal public health service, has
officially adopted standard for pure
water. BY this standard the water
furnished for drinking purposes on all
trains and boats will be Judged. Be-
cause OF this action the drinking wa
ter furnished on trains and boats will
in most cases be safer and better
drinking water than that furnished
by local water supplies The trains
and boats will be allowed to take wa
ter only from those sources ascertain
ed to be safe and pure.
The standard for pure water OFF,
cially adopted was one, drafted by a
commission appointed for. the purpose

Perhaps it didn't occur to either OF
them before the election. Possibly II
occurs to both of them now.
