these decided the contest by the proc
ess OF elimination. with five contestants
ffst remaining as favorites.
Nevertheless, five additional possible
winners were Invited to the hotel for a
personal view.
Miss Mackaye could not be present to
see the candidates In person, but she
had Joined Mrs. Hemmick and the other
Judges In selecting Miss Prcell's photo

end the judges agreed upon Miss Pur-
cell both from viewing photographs and

view.

Although the personal inspection was
not promised under the conditions OF the
contest, the judges and The Times
thought that after narrowing the con-
test down to a few girls the award
could he better made by comparing both
photographs and originals. That Miss
Purcell led in both ways Is an addition
al source of qualification to her.
The Times Is pleased with the general
interest taken in the contest. which has
been a most successful one. Girls from
every section Of the city, and from the
several walks of life. were contestants
in an open-to-all competition. Miss
Purcell won over many beautiful girls
and goes to the expositions as the repre-
sentative of the beauty OF the National
Capital.

In an article in the Medical Review
of Reviews r. Benedict Furniss saws
that we have got SO far away from
natural life that only five persons in
100 have alkaline saliva
Chewing stimulates the salivary
glands Soft, starchy, mushy foods,
from which the mineral salts have
been extracted, need little or no
chewing, SO the salivary glands are not
stimulated And they do not supply
the mineral elements that are neces-
sary to the fluids of the body. Such
foods stick between the teeth and in
the recesses of the mouth, where they
ferment and decay and become the
breeding ground for bacteria. The
bacteria generate acids which eat
away the substance of the teeth, max
ing holes in which more food lodges,
and so the evil process goes on.
The normal alkaline saliva is one of
the best of the protectors of the body
against the attack of bacteria Not
only is the saliva slightly bactericidal
but its alkalinity counteracts tbe acids
produced by these bacteria
Starchy foods should always be ac-
companied by fruits or berries. for the
acid in these has the peculiar property

uNEARTHING A FOSSIL.
A Delicate Task Demanding Great
Care and Preparation.

When the bed of fossil is found the
serious work begins. In many beds
the bones are without any iniltrated
filing, so that, though perfect in form
they are soft and fragile. To remedy
this defect coat of shellac is applied
and allowed to soak in. Then second
and third, and often more, are put on
until the sandstone, or matriX. and
bone cease to take up shellac As soon
as the bone has hardened strips Of
cloth are dipped in -four paste and ad-
justed to make a firm bandage When
dried in this stage the whole is firm
enough to work around, and the ada
cent rock is gently removed. leaving
the specimen on somewhat of a pedes-
tai.
The preparation and the work of
quarrying take three or more days OF
careful, patient work. Then finally the
slab containing the bones and hard
ened with shellac is wrapped in straw
and shipped to the institution which
Is to receive them. To take the bones
from the slab and prepare them for
mounting require all the patience and
skill of q master mechanic. Very care

A "Jag" Without Whisky and Weird
Nervous Disorder.
Alcohol Is greatly feared by the pow
der people, and rightly so. But they
cannot eliminate strange malady that
appears among their workmen In the
powder mills. AS subterranean labor
in compressed air produces 1.-The bends, !"
work in the powder mills creates the
powder house jag" which is describ
ed as follows by Merle Crowell In the
American Magazine:
A powder house is no place for an
unsteady hand or an unseeing eye But
the powder house jag. freak prod
uct Of the plants themselves. Is some
thing which no amount of diligence can
forefend. Large quantities Of alcohol
are used in the making OF smokeless
powder, and the air in the shops fre-
quently gets heavy with it's flames
Men have been known to leave the
plants reeling and stupehed. while one
serious accident was caused because a
fume fuddled workman threw on both
the high pressure and low pressure
brakes at the same time.
A weird nervous disorder that steals
upon powder makers has been called
''powderitis. Treading all day with
rubber sole shoes in shop which a
vagrant spark will change into era
ter, they get keyed up to nervous
tension that never runs down, with the
result that even when off duty they
nearly jump through their collars at
ali unexpected flash Of light. Although
powder. unless it is confiued, does not
explode at a spark under normal con-
ditions, powder shop may be changed
into an inferno of wildfire in few sec

Bears vary in price, the most ex-
pensive being the polar bears, which
cost about $3.50. Most of the arctic
expeditions bring back polar bears,
and, notwithstanding the heat, they
are happy and contented in captivity.
Native bears are much cheaper. One
member of the bear family in Bronx

The work becomes more delicate as
the fragile bones appear As soon as
exposed to the air the pulverized mass
is given coat Of shellac. and this
