Faces.

Faces come on people, waters and
notes that are always coming due at
the most inconvenient time. When
faces belong to people they vary in
size and shape and do not appear to be
constructed according to any matured
plan. They also come in various col
ors, red, blue and white. Some faces
belonging to certain young ladies be-
tween seventeen and twenty-five are
highly ornamental and are calculated
to inspire ones respect for the care
full workmanship of the Creator. 1t
is difficult, under some circumstances,
and when there are no others present
to get too close to such faces as
these. Faces are used by their own
ers for various purposes, for example,
to conceal lack of brains. Every face
has one nose, two eyes, two lips,
forehead, eyebrows and cheeks. Also
chin, which is used to make music.
The nose comes in various colors, ac-
cording to the taste Of the owner
ranging from an alabaster white to
deep purple.-Life.

CONDITION OF JEWS
IN RUSSIA CRITICAL

Petrograd, Aug. 22-(Via London)
Owing to the occupation by the
Germans of a great part &C the pale
OF the Jewish settlements, and tho
inclusion of the remainder in the
sphere of military operations, the
condition of the Jews is critical. Five
hundred thousand Jewish residents
have been deported and probably
greater number have taken refuge in
the interior provinces Where they
have no legal rights.
Prince Cherbatoff the minister OF
the interior, brought the question OF
their status before the council of
the empire and that body has de.
cided temporarily to permit Jews to
settle in the cities of the empire with
the exception of those CT Moscow
and PetrogTad, and the suburban res
licences OF Emperor Nicholas.

Your "Funny Bone"

When you bump your nose or chin
you bump the flesh and 0one and moi
a nerve, consequently you feel a sen
sation or pain just where the blow
was struck. If you strike the point
Of your elbow it will be just the same {;
it's only when you strike that little
hollow between the big central bone
of the elbow and the little inside bone
that the tickling, tingling sensation is
felt. In the little hollow you strike one
of the large trunk nerves that spring
between the vertebrae, at the base OF
the neck and run through the arm tc
the wrist. In the hollow of the elbow
the nerve lies over bone. When you
strike that spot you feel a tinglinR
sensation which isn't exactly funny
but because it tickles the bone is
called the funny bone"

. Lemons Save Doctor Bills.

The popularity of lemon seltzer "the

en-. The medical properties of the
humble lemon are just becoming wide
ly known The juice of half lemon
in cupful of hot water taken imme-
diately after arising in the morning,
serves excellently as a liver correc'

teaspoonful of lemon juice in cupful

The Red Book Magazine.

The beginning of a new serial by
Rupert Hughes each year IN The Red
Book Magazine has become an event
to look forward to. The first Install
ment of his 1915 novel, which is en-
titled "The Thirteenth Command
ment," appears in the Se1temter is
sue of that publication. Although the
story opens in Cleveland, Ohio, it
is apparent that most 0 the action
is to transpire in New York City,
which Mr.. Hughes has made his own
special field. 1t is a story built on
the constant battle between money
and romance. The phase Of Mr..
Hughes work which seems to be one
of its chief appeals-that his charac-
ters are all the sort of folks we all
knows even more apparent in The
Thirteenth Commandment" than it
was in What Will People Say" and

Skunk Valuable as Food.

During the disastrous invasions OF
the Rocky mountain locust in the
United States in 1873 and 1874 the
skunk was reported as the principal
mammal destroyer Of these insects,
1t Is also relentless foe of mice
rats and other harmful rodents. With
scent sacs removed skunks are fai
superior to cats as mousers, and can
be domesticated for this purpose. Their
flesh is used as food and was formerly
n common article of diet among the
North American Indians and trappers
The oil of the skunk is used in some
parts OF the country for medicinal pur
poses. They are easily managed anc
cared for in captivity, and the breed
ing of them on farms has made some
progress as an industry.

Peculiar Power Of the Iris.

The proof that the iris is a color
mirror is to be found ia the fact that
If a girl with pale blue eyes wishes to
make them deep or ultra-marine blue
all she needs do is to wear dark blue
dresses, neck ribbons, hat and other
blue raiment. On the other hand, II
she wishes to tighten the colors OF her
ewes. she should wear all white or
pale yellow. Similarly black clothes
and dark garments make gray and
hazel or light brown eyes very dark.
In fine, not only do the eyes fade
and change color physiologically and
intrinsically. but they can be made to
alter the native tints by all sorts OF
human artifice.

Time Wasted In Washing Dishes.

Perhaps it is not out of place here
to call attention to the huge amount
of time which the ordinary process OF
washing and wiping involves, remarks
the Edison Monthly. There is prob
ably no household of six or more In
which at least three hours day are
not spent in this tedious and uninvit
ing operation. And three hours is a
quarter of an average womans work
ing day. Counting dshwashing and
drying as unskilled labor, worth not
more than IL cents an hour, inside OF
year the washing machine woulo
more than pay for itself IT certainly
is a safe prophecy t. venture that
within the next decade dishwashing
by hand will be classed as a happily
lost art
