Strain Lemon Juice Well Before
Mixing and Massage Face.
Neck, Arms, Hands.

Here is told how to prepare an in
expensive lemon lotion which can be
used to bring back to any skin the
sweet freshness of which it has been
robbed by trying atmospheric condi-
tons. Wind-chafe, roughness, tan
and redness are warded off and those
tell-tale lines of care or of age are
softened away.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes
whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for q
small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through fine cloth so
no lemon pulp gets in, then this To-
ton will keep fresh for months.
Every woman knows that lemon Juice
is used to bleach and remove such
blemishes as freckles, sallowness and
tan, and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly
fragrant lemon lotion and massage
it daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands, and see for yoursef.-Adv.

French and English plants turning out

the ingenuity, the careful preparation and
the overwhelming man-power of the allies,

Tanks played an important part in re-

checked all infantry advances until the
great armored tractors rushed across
smashed and battered tunnels and trenches
and force their way to the German guns.

ALLIES TO AID ITALY.

AT last, the allies have given heed to the
entreaties of Italy and will lend money,
guns and munitions to aid the brave army
which has struggled so valiantlv against
Germans, Austrians and Turks. winning
victory after victory until halted by lack
of ammunition.
1t is not Italy's fault that Germany was
able to nulify Cadorna's splendid triurnphs
through throwing forty full divisions, re-
leased from the Russian front to the support
of the Austrians just when Italv's NUM-
tons were exhausted. No army can sue
cessfully fight modern artillery empty

Italy tried to impress the allies with her
plight, but they could not seem to under
stand that the Italian campaign was essen
tial to the winning of the war They could
not realize that Italy was winning victory
for England, France and the United States,
as well as for herself. With pressing needs
on the Western front and Russia failing
in the fight, the allies left Italy to battle
alone. She made wonderful progress,
the most serious damage SuS-
tanned by the Central Powers bue she
could not hold her gains against the whole
strength of Germany and Austria
Italy has been defeated and forced back
for the same reasons that the Russians

At the same time comes the encoura cling

ammunition, and that French and English

Three Kinds of Forest Fires.

There are three kinds of forest fires
the surface fire." which merely runs
in the leaves and ground litter; the
ground fire." that covers the under
brush and the dense forests, and the
Grown fire." the most dangerous and
terrifying of all. A crown fire is usu-
ally caused when the ground or sur
face fire reaches the top of ridge or
knoll, and the increased draft carries
the blaze up the trunks of the trees
to the tops Of the Crowns" 1t Is the
crown fires which have made the great
forest fires of history. Surrounding the
burning area by a trench from which
everything down to the mineral soil
has been removed is the only kind OF
fire line which will stop ground flre,
and it will often stop surface ire.
For surface fire 'whipping" or using
brush branches or water soaked sack
ing to whip the burning leaves at the
edge of the fire back into the burned
area Is most effective. Sand as well as
water is valuable in fighting this kind
Of fire, too. There is only one way to
fight a crown f1re-that Is, by back
iiring'-fghting fire with fire.

India's Famlnes.

Famines In India are growing in
number and in intensity. After care
full study of the problem, Sir William
Digby says in his prosperous British
India" that there were in India two
famines in the eleventh century, one
famine in the thirteenth, three in the
fourteenth. three in the sixteenth,
three in the seventeenth, four in the
eighteenth up to 1745. And under
British rule seven famines from 1859
to 1900. And in the ninteenth CEN
fury thirty-two famines. In the first
quarter of the nineteenth century
there were five famines, with 1,OOO,-
600 deaths; in the second quarter,
three famines, with 100000 deaths; in
the third quarter, six famines, with
100000 deaths; and In the fourth
quarter, eighteen famines, with 26,-
100000 deaths.

Savinu the Bullets,

There are several kinds of airplanes
adapted to different kinds Of military
service and their equipment varies ac-
cording to whether they are intended
chiefly for scouting, for bomb dropping
or for gun fighting. On most of the
machines of the last-named or battle
plane type, a writer in the Scientific
American says, machine gun Is so
fitted as to point along the axis Of the
machine. The pilot, who is alone, di-
reefs the nose of his airplane at the
enemy and fires across the propeller.
Two plans were tried for preventing
the propeller from being broken by
the bullets. The first consisted Of
stopping the machine gun whenever
the propeller came within the field of
fire, but experience showed that fire.
quent stopping of the gun with the
propellers making 1900 revolutions q
minute ends in putting the gun out of
order. Designers then placed steel
plates on those parts Of the propeller
likely to be struck, and these plates
turn the bullets that strike the pro-
peller 1t is mathematically calculat-
ed that only one bullet in eighteen is
wasted in this way.

One of the most unusual salvages
yet recorded in these days Of subma-
rinc warfare, says Popular Science
Monthly. is that of the Norwegian
steamship Kongsli, whose cargo Of
grain Swelled to such an extent on the
thrush of water through the ragged
hole torn in her side by torpedo, that
the hole was clogged up and the water
prevented from flowing In and sinking
her.
A party of fishermen, clambering
aboard to discover the trouble, were
amazed to find that the ragged hole on
one side and hull plares rorn loose on
the other by the force Of the explosion
had been effectively plugged by the
swollen grain. The fishermen were
afraid to attempt to tow her because
the rush of the water along her sides
might have washed away the effective
grain SEAL Accordingly, they impro-
vised bales made of cotton filled with
grain and forced these into the holes.
This made the stoppage secure enough
to enable the vessel to be towed to a
nearby port.

MULE SHOE ROUTE.
Gravity Scheme Invented by Min
erS of Tennessee.
Devise Mountain Trail Toboggan
Which Takes Them to Shaft
Openings In Hurry.

A queer gravity railroad scheme Is
in use among the miners in the lnman
district of Tennessee, not far from the
town Of South Pittsburg. The region
has, by the way, more different kinds
of means of transportation than any
other in the world. The range is from
the steeply inclined cable road that
runs up Lookout mountain, not so
many miles away, to the idea that the
miners evolved fox themselves after
watching section bosses use gravity
cars for coasting down the mountains.
The mines nestle in a valley at the
foot Of a series of hills, and the rail-
road track winds it's tortuous way
from the mine openings up to the
heights that lead to the outside world.
Many of the miners live in the set
Elements on the hills, and it is a long
way to the shaft openings. One day
some bright genius discovered that a
mule shoe would fit over the top Of
the Trail that marked the course Of
the railroad.
1t was but an inventive step to at
then slip the mountain rail sled over
the track, says an exchange. Then all
Mr. Miner had to do was to balance
himself, pick up his feet and transport
miner, pick and dinner bucket down
the mountain to work. OF course, 1t
was one way traffic for which the
road got no money, but there was no
conductor, no strap hanging and no
stopping to buy tickets on the mule
shoe route.
Early any morning the stranger may
see the miners come along with their
mule shoe toboggans, calmly take n
seat and begin the descent.
A pick handle, stick or the foot
serves as brake to regulate the speed
of the incline railway. AS the shoes
wear smooth from contact with the
rail they pick up speed, and at times
a couple of daring coal diggers will
race on opposite rails from the top to
the bottom. But as rule they take
the trip carefully and earnestly so as
not to interfere with the rights of the
road that may belong to a neighbor
before or after them.
The scheme, of course, will not work
up hill, and the road has to bring the
men back on crowded cars that are not
so comfortable or eXhilarating as the
individual coasters that come scooting
down the mountain in the morning.
The number of missing mule shoes
when the idea first got vogue was per-
picking, and 1t was some time before
the company storekeepers found out
why the stocks were being depleted
by such odd lots that no amount of
shoeing extravaganza could account
for it.
But the miner in those parts is a
law unto himself; since he rose up
twenty years ago and put forcible
end to the convict system of working
the mines, and the owners mindful Of
the fact that the state of Tennessee
had to keep standing army for two
years to keep the peace at that time,
do not intend to let little thing like
a mule shoe create any disturbance.

Laughter and Music Featured So.
ciaI Event Attended by American
and English Officers.

AS one Of the contrasts of war
shall not soon forget the American
tea party in one of the hospital tents,
writes a New York correspondent
Not far away was a military Gem
etery which grows and grows with
its forest of crosses, and in the tents
near by American surgeons and
American nurses were dealing with
wounded men just down from the
front. But in the other tent to which
/ went as a guest there was merry
music played by English bandsmen
and all the tent was filed with color
from the intertwined flags of America
and England among great bouquets Of
summer flowers of France. Above the
music rose laughter and the voices
Of American and English officers and
nurses.
1t was a tea party given by the
nurses of the American medical unit
which had been working over here
for q year to the newcomers of the
United States Medical corps and to
British officers from the neighboring
tents. There were greetings between
college girls who had come together
as comrades again in this great ad-
venture on French soil. Young doc
, tors from the Southern states held
out a glad hand TO friends from New
York and Chicago. Here were breezy
salutations between Georgians and
Virginians. between men of Cincin-
natl and girls of Boston and Atlantic
