WELL-GROOMED WOMEN
CANNOT BE "HOMELY"
Complexion that Is Put On" Makes
Wearer Ridiculous. Says Writer
in Farm and Home.

While clothes are an important factor
in ones appearance, it Is not the only
one to be considered. So many busy
housekeepers neglect to pay sufficient at
tention to their own personal appear
ance. We are not all born beauties,
neither are we born homely, unless the
case be abnormal. A clean. healthy
woman, who carries herself erect, and
dresses herself properly, is never home
ly, while on the other hand a slovenly,
sickly, cranky person Is never pretty,
says writer in Farm and Home. How
ever our features may differ, If We are
normal we all have hands, feet, hair,
compilations and figures that need at
tention to keep them in good order and
in good shape.
The complexion is generally a pretty
good indication OF the health Of the In
dividual. A complexion that Is put on
deceives no one and makes the wearer
only ridiculous. Some points to be re-
membered by the one who would pre-
serve a good complexion are as follows
Keep the bowels regular by natural
methods. Drink little tea or coffee, but
plenty Of milk, buttermilk or pure water.
Eat literally of fruits and vegetables,
but rather sparingly of meats and greas
foods. Exercise regularly in the open
air, and sleep enough and in a well-ventI-
lated room. Wash your face carefully
and thoroughly, morning and evening,
using only pure soap. with warm water,
followed by a rinsing with cold water.
Frequent bathing Is conducive to good
health. It keeps the pores of the skin
clear, so that they can perform their
proper functions, clearing the system
Of excretions which cannot be dis
charged in other ways. A brisk rub
after the bath promotes circulation of
the blood.

Speed upon the Mater.

A boat has been designed by d. N.
Brown of Grand Haven. Mich. which
or, test runs has attained speed of
10 miles an hour, says Popular Sci
ence. The body of the craft is made
of thin galvanized iron over bass.
wood framework two feet wide and
twenty feet long. Two galvanized iron
air tanks are attached to an outrigger
five feet from the rear end on both
sides. When the four-cylnder motor
set in the rear, whirls n six-inch pro.
peller. the PROV rises out of the water
and the craft skins along like huge
bird over the surface, the entire
weight resting on about three feet of
the stern. The two tanks maintain
the equilibrium.
The boat has proved success in all
ways, and the inventor believes. with
an improved design, that he will have
craft capable Of making 60 miles
an hour without being crowded.

BELGIAN BELLS WAR VICTIMS
Famous Towers and carIIIons In Un.
fortunate Country Have Been De-
stroyed In the Conflict.

Among the many unfortunate con
sequences of the European war is the
destruction of many of the bell towers,
and carillons Of Belgium. Mr.. William
Gorham Rice, in his "Carillons of Bel
GUM and Holland" explains that the
carillOns are set Of tower bells at
tuned to intervals of the chrOmatic
scale. Sometimes there are more than
four octaves Of bells, the lowest sew
eral tons in weight, whereas the small
est scarcely weighs twenty pounds.
The bells are connected with key
board by means of which the perform
er causes their clappers to strike the
inside of their sound bow, or with n
clOckwork mechanism that causes a
hammer to strike the outside.
The correspondent of London
newspaper, describing recital Civ
en- by Joseph Denyn. municipal caril-
lonneur of Mechlin (Malines), wrote :
"In these northern countries the day
is long in August, and it was still twi-
light. Against the southern sky rose
the broad, rugged tower of st. Rom
bold's. High up near the top of the
tower shOne faint light After the
clock ceased striking and the vibra-
tion of its deep and solemn tones had
died away, there was silence. So long
silence 1t seemed that we wondered
II 1t was ever to be broken.
'"Then, pianisSimo, from the highest,
lightest bells, as If very gently shaken
from the sky itself, came trills and
runs that were angelic. Rapidly they
grew In volume and majesty rs they
descended the scale, until the entire
heavens seemed full Of music
"Seated in the garden, we watched
the little light in the tower, where we
knew the unseen carillonneur sat at
his clavier, and yet we somehow felt
that the music came from somewhere
far above the tower, and was pro-
duced by superhuman hands. Some
times In winter there comes thaw.
and one by one the icicles tinkle
down; gently and timidly at first, then
louder and louder, until, like an ava
lanche, the largest ones crash down
with mighty roar. All that the
music suggested.

from one bell, and it was from chords
of bells; 1t was majestic, 1t was SIM

from above, from such heights that
the whole land heard its melody.

faint and delicate that we found our

Advice From Seventy Year. AGO.

To young ladies, who, regardless of
hard times, deck themselves as If for
the sacrificial altar: Ladies must re-
collect that because their male friends
do not tell their pecuniary dis
tresses, 1t does not follow that they
are ut ease in these troublesome times.
Many man worth his thousands is
"cramped" now. Ladies': Be econom-
ical; lay off your rings, put on your
soiled slippers, resume and mend your
rent gowns. We call on females to
practice economy, to cut off extrava-
gances, regulate your eXpenses-cur-
tail your wants, and show your affec-
tiOnate husbands, kind brothers and
fond fathers that you are ready to
hear recital of their troubles, that
you will sympathize with them, and if
necessary resign luXuries, and do it
with good grace, and have none the
less smiles for them for what they
would gladly avoid and what they are
not to blame for enduring.-From the
British-American Cultivator, Toronto,

THURSDAY, AUGUST oath, 1916.
WILSON A LEADER OF MEN

Under the leadership of President
Woodrow Wilson the Democratic Ma
tional party has forged to the front,
as the leader in constructive legis-
lation.
For years this party, like it's oppo-
nent, spared for position, and allow
ed many dognas and isms to be in
troduced, to catch the majority vote.
with the consequent result, that con-
structive national legislation for the
last thirty years has been at low
ebb, for the want of constructive
and wise leader to guide our nation
al bark Alright.
MIR. Wilson, when governor of New
Jersey, became such a bold and fear
less leader of men, that the nation
stood aghast at his heroic acts in
clearing the political atmosphere, and
the placing Of his name before the
Democratic national convention at
Baltimore in 1912, as the party lead
er, was followed up by his election.
When Mr. Wilson took the oath
to ever cherish, maintain and sup
port his country's laws, he meant to
carry out, irrespective of party or
station in life, the full interpreta-
ton Of the law, as his high balanced
and cultured brain saw 1t.
With congress, elected for the
purpose of giving him aid and succor,
he at once plunged into the middle
of the fray and began the task Of
bringing order out of choas. HIS
previous knowledge and writings on
political economy, stood him we'll in
hand, as he outlined to the legislative
financial committee, a system of
banking that has ably stood the rev.
olution and convulsion of the civiliz
ed world, and raised the nation from
stupid languor to one of renowned
prosperity.
This. and many other constructive
laws, placed upon the statute books
during his administration, marks an
epoch in American history that will
live in ages to come, and like the
signers of our independence, his
name, as we'll as those of that AM
erican congress will be handed down
to posterity.
