Mukden Water Project.

A Chinese company under the name
Of T7en Pc Kung Ssu has petitioned
the governor general at Mukden for
permission to install waterwOrks in
Mukden. The proposed capital is ST.
100000 small coin, about 100000
United States currency, in 100000
shares of $40 each. The amount to
be paid up before starting work is
100000 small coin, the remainder TO
be paid up when required. Such a
scheme is doubtless workable and
would be profitable if properly man
aged, for Mukden has a population of
$4,000.
The scheme does not include piping
for houses, but the water is to be
conveyed to street MIGRANTS from
which every householder will be al
lowed to draw his own supply. Those
who wish to have water in their
houses will be able to do so later by
paying the cost of laying pipes and
making necessary connections. -

FOLLY TO LIVE IN THE PAST
Mistake All Too Frequently Made BY
Elderly Women Is Something
to Be Avoided.

Here is a general warning to elderly
women: Never permit yourself to i've
in the past. This trick, more than
anything else, will age you. So often
we hear women say: Life holds
nothing for me now, save memories.
| live with my loved ones in the past
That speech and crows feet are
boon companions. Naturally the wom-
an of fifty or more finds herself drop
ping into "reminiscences, but do not in
dulge in this habit even If it gives
you melancholy sort OF pleasure
Find pleasure in those around you.
Force yourself to be interested in their
interests. Think of the future. New
er permit yourself to think that your
usefulness is ended or your capacity
for enjoyment dulled. If you cannot
play tennis, you certainly can take
brisk walks in the fresh morning air
and play bridge later in the day. And
there is no law, written or unWritten,
against your playing golf.
Do not dress in what is known as a
kittenish fashion, but do not think that
because years are overtaking you, you
must wear dun-colored raiment. Do
not brush your hair back severely from
your face and don an uncomprOmising
toQue. Fluff your hair on either side
If you part it, and under no circum-
stances wear a severe pompadour un-
less you have classic features and a
stately carriage.
Do-not~ curl your hair withthe iron,
as this has tendency to break hairs
which you cannot afford to lose. Bet
ter far to use soft rags or patent curl
ers over night, and right here let us
speak Of the nightcap, which is enjoy
ing a decided revival. Make this Of
very thin china silk, interlined with
1Ine sheer wadding in which you strew
sachet powder. This gives a charm
ing perfume to the hair and wards off
dangers from drafts if you sleep near

An appropriation of $40,000 for a postotfice building at Conway was in- 'cluded in the $38, ,0O0,000 public build lngs bill passed by the lower house of congress late yesterday, according to telegrams which Congressman H NJ.

 Referring to the public buildings bill and the opposition it is still like ly to encounter, the following As sociated Press dispatch was sent out from Washington last night:
 Washington, Jan. 19.-An omnibus public buildings bill, which President Wilson has given notice he will veto, was passed late today by the house, 234 to 92. 1t carries $38,000,000 for buildings, Improvements of sites in cities and towns all over the country.
 The bill now goes to the senate, where it will encounter determined opposition.
 Action in the house followed long and bitter debate during which oppo- nents denounced it as pork barrel" legislation. The final vote was not along party lines, although there were more Republican than Demo- cratic negatives.
 While the bill carries a total of $38,0 100000, Chairman Clark of the public building committee told the house that this would be reduced about $6,000,000 by money returned to the treasury through sales of old sites and buildings.
