WOMAN'S RISE TO GENIUS.

Whether women will eyer rise to genius of the first rank cannot be known till they have enjoyed several generations of equal opportunity with men for development.
 The attitude toward woman in the past has made the development of genius in her very difficult" says a prominent woman lecturer, but now she is beginning to enjoy larger op- pOrtunity and the sympathy of men in her endeavor for the development of her gifts, and the inventions of modern times have relieved her Of many of the arduous duties of the home
 Those who discuss the woman question from the standpoint of sex, industry or politics take too narrow a view of the subject, for the woman question of today is broader than  that and her outward activities are but the result of her intellectual awakening. The woman question is a natural growth of evolution and cannot be forced or held back. Grant ing her the ballot is but d small part of her advancement; it is but a means to an end. The reason the woman question is so misunderstood today is because many do not care to study it at all. some bring the ac- cumulated prejudice of ages to the study and others are actively op- posed to it"

HEALTH AND BEAUTY

. . . :, . :. . . . . . . . (, . 'o
 Heavy eyebrows are just as uHat- tractiye as the lack of them. The supertmous hairs can be removed and those remaining should bc brush ed daily.
 If the skin is dry one should apply cold cream to it before retiring ey- cry night Care should be taken not to use strong soap. In fact, soap should not be used often, for 1t has d drying effect Oatmeal used in the water has a cleansing and soften ing effect
 The arrangement of the hair has a great deal to do with ones ap- pearance. The woman nearing the forty mark should spend much time in determining which style is most becoming to her She should cling to that style, no matter what new fashion may be introduced.
 Equal parts Of orris root and chalk make a simple. wholesome tooth pow der.
 Painful corns on the bottom of the feet are treated by putting several layers of adhesive plaster to act as a kind of cushion over the corn. This keeps the corn protected from fric- ton and in time it will disappear
 For a shiny nose, make lotion of one dram of boracic acid and mix it with four ounces of rosewa- ter. Apply as often as necessary. Be careful of your diet, and highly seasoned foods. extremes of heat and cold and anything spirituous.
 Give your scalp and hair plenty of ventilation. Do this at night, al lowing the hair to fall over the shoul ders. Shake it out and sometimes give it a summing. On mild day sit before an open window for the air to blow through the hair

TELEPHONE CRE V
 WORKING TODAY

The construction crew which is to build the line for the Engineering commission between Ester and Fair banks will leave town this morning to begin the actual work. The crew is in charge of Ole Peterson, and George Lockyear, formerly of Fair banks. is chief lineman
 The line to be built will be put on tripods from Happy Station to Nenana, and will be temporary only, the permanent line not being built until the railroad is in operation. All the material necessary has been secured, and no delay from this source is anticipated. With good wea ther it is figured that the work will consume at least fifty days. It may possibly take longer than this, as a trail along the right of way will have to be broken for great part of the way.

KEROSENE.

First-Before putting fatirons away try rubbing over with kerosene. It will prevent rusting and keep them smooth.
 Second-Try cleaning bathtub, lava tory and bowl with a cloth saturated with kerosene, then wash with a clean cloth, hot water and soap. Rinse with clear, cold water. It will remove all odors and will not injure the enamel as a securing powder is apt to do.
 Third-Try washing clothes that have become yellow this way: Soak over night in cold water, rub plenty of soap on the pieces, then add three quarters of cup of kerosene to a tub of water In the morning wiring out and put in tub of hot suds, let stand twenty minutes, then wash in usual way Rinse in three waters to remove all odor of the oil. Dry clothes slowly over night if possible; it makes them winter. White cur tains yellowed by the sun washed in this way will look like new.
 Fourth-Two tablespoons kerosene to a pail of cold water will clean var nished floors and woodwork. Use a soft, dark cloth. Two black stock ings sewed together is good Wiring out the cloth and wipe over the floors and vanished woodwork and it will make it look bright. It will clean windows and looking glasses. When cleaning linoleum try using a little kerosene in the water, with plenty of soap. It will clean great deal easier.
