HEALTH AND BEAUTY.

When any soap however pure it is reputed to be, causes feeling of ex- cessve dryness and a drawing" of the skin. it is also working much injury to that skin, and should be discontinu- ed.
 An excellent wash for cleansing and as lotion for beautifying the skin is epson lotion wash, prepared as fol- lows:-Boil one quart of rain water (if this is not to be had, distilled wat CT from the druggists will do. or any soft, pure water, well boiled), and pour it over one pound of Epson salts. Be sure the salts are clean and pure. Stir in 1 1-2 ounces of glycerine. When cold, add two ounces of rosewater and 25 drops of tincture of benzoin. Mix thoroughly and bottle, It will keep nicely in a cool place.
 Drink large quantities of water reg ularly and systematically. Two quarts daily should not be too much. With plenty of fluid in the system, the skin will be more soft and pliable, hence there will not be so much danger of wrinkles.
 Do not wear a tight hat; it cuts off the blood from the skin of the head and induces badness. A soft hat is the best. Do not cripple the feet with tight shoes.

THAT ONE VOTE.

Representative Schall of Minnesota has the distinction of being the one member of the house of representa- tives to vote against thanking Gen eraI Pershing for his distinguished service to the nation and to humanity. It. is not permitted to question the motives of the gentleman in so re- cording his opposition. He would be false to himself if he did not vote. as his conscience directed. But most folks will wonder on what ground he rests in his opposition. In politics he is set down as a progressive" he is a practicing lawyer in Minneapolis, and thus by inference at least ought to be relied upon to sustain the cause that took Pershing to France. as well as to approve of the steadfast course he there pursued. However, like the youth who fired the Ephesian dome, MT. Schall has attained m0mentary fame. It may be in ages to come some antiquarian will dig up the fact that one vote was cast against the resolu- ton of thanks in congress, but Amer ican schoolboys will always be taught of Pershing and the work he did for the world.

socIALIsM,s SUICIDE.

Socialist pretensions to fnternation- ism collapsed like a bubble when the militarist masters of Germany in 1914 undertook to wage a war of conquest. Since then. according to that com potent student of economic facts. Her bert c. Hoover. socialism has been duction." The philosophy of the Le- hines, the Spartacists and the Bella Runs has been tried and, in MT. Hoo vers words, has proved itself with rivers of blood and suffering to be an economic and spiritual fallacy."
 Wherever Marxism has been applied by visionaries who imagined that a social revolution and a new order of things economic. industrial and f1nan- dictatorship of the so-ca1led proletar- fat the result has been-to quote Mir. Ffeover again-'extraordinary lower ing of productivity to a point below the necessity for continued existence"
 American and British workmen, for tunately, appreciate the soundness of Mir Hoover's observations.

AN UNUSUAL SHOWER.

If you want something a little out of the ordinary as gift for the bride to-be try the following plan. It was worked out very effectively by girl who lived too far from d friend who was to be married to arrange any of the customary wedding showers.
 She bought one of the small wooden boxes with hinged covers which are filled with hundred blank white cards and index cards of yellow, pink or blue These cards are labelled with the let ters of the alphabet or else with the titles. Bread" Cake Desserts"
 Fish" Preserves" Soups" and so on through the menu. Then she sent several of the blank cards to each of her friends who knew the engaged girl and asked them to write there on their favorite recipes Each recipe was to be signed with the name of the donor.
 The result was gratifying. When she had received all the cards she found that she had a collection of really choice and tried recipes.

IS LOST CAUSE?

william Mather Lewis. director of the savings division of the treasury department, says the governments fight on the high cost of living is lag ging for lack of a national organiza- ton to direct it.
 'As was to be anticipated" says MT. Lewis. "the agitation of the high cost of living problem is now rapidly sub siding. Unless some national organi- zation makes it it's business to keep the matter before the public very lit tie result will have been obtained by the recent excitement"
 Why pile up organizations any fur ther? We already have federal, state and. in many cases, municipal directors falling over one another in efforts to serve the ulti- mate consumer. who still is looking for the first results from their work. If Mir. Lewis will point out where the government has. outside of talk, show ed some genuinely effective desire to fight the unnecessarily high cost of living in the interests of the ultimate consumer it will be appreciated. The people would like to believe that something is being done. but it seems to be true that the agitation is dying out and that we shall have to record hope of relief as another lost cause.

DICTATES OF FASHION

Knitted fabric capes have collars of Angora wool in contrasting colors.
 Brown net over brown satin makes a distinguished afternoon dress.
 A fllet of spangled net is charming ly finished with a big bow of brown tulle, Alsatian style.
 Black serge dresses are the last word for fall. They are usually combined with black silk stitched into checks with white wool.
 Velvet figures, cut with raw edges and applied on capes and evening coa s trimming Sometimes they are edged with silk floss, sometimes with jet or colored beads.
 For the woman who enjoys sport toggery great enveloping scarfs of the softest Shetland wool woven on the diagonal and made in the most fascin- ating misty colors are to be found in a few of the smartest shops and appear to be finding favor when worn straight around the neck, with the wide soft ends tucked under the belt in front.
 No one is shocked at the idea of very short sleeves with an afternoon dress even in open air. The majority of gowns have them. It is better taste to wear gloves of course, but during these warm summer days one sees women carrying gloves or going en- tireiy without them
 LinenNs scarce but occasionally one sees charming frock made of 1t. For instance one linen frock noted was of sky blue, trimmed with plaited ruff1es of sheer white handkerchief linen.
 One may wear ones headgear this fall adorned not, according to ones fancy. A hat may have its crown draped so that the plainness is taken away. The hat may have it's brim upturned and caught with a tiny tuft of feathers or an ornament or a loop of ribbon.

THE INNOCENT RYsTANDER.

The Boston polio strike must have shaken the ancient port to it's foun dations, for we find upon examinine the Boston public prints of recent date that at one fell stroke public opinion slew without mercy every citi- zen or visitor who in the remotest de- gree resenbled that ubiquitous person known in easy journalese as "the in nocent bystander' The Bostonians ruled by common agreement that any one who stood by in the capacity of a spectator Of riots or other unseemly bursts of violence or tumult became not merely a spectator but by the very fact of his immediate presence a participant, knowing participant. and therefore not innocent
 Truly the shackles of tradition are being cast of. Bostonians who have played an unheroic, even inactive. part in little street riots. serving merely as unintended targets for badly aim ed brickbats. now find that it is i'm possible 10 become publicly labelled innocent" in the newspapers. If they are so unfortunate as to delay their flight from tumultuous scenes until the inevitable brick. stray bullet or wildly brandished club establishes it's center of impact in the region of a vii tai part, they are borne away to the public lookup and slated as rioters and so described in the newspapers. It vas no wonder staid Boston barri- caded it's doors and sought solace in it's prohibition subcellars.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Wants Public Scale.


 MT. Editor: I was in the city the other day. and heard some talk about a public scale for the protection of people who buy things. and I would like to have the people in these parts know how I was treated by a certain coal dealer in Norwich. On June 20th I came in from the lake with a team and as I was in Norwich got a load of coal of one of the coal and wood companies. On the way home I weigh ed the load on two other scales and they both made the load 50 pounds short.
 On June 18th I got another load of coal of the same firm and had this load weighed on another scale and found it 155 pounds short.
 What can a poor man do to get pro- tection2

RENEW PIAZZA CHAIRS.

If your piazza chairs are showing signs of wear it is a good idea to re- pair them at odd jobs. Provided the seats and prehaps some of the backs are of rattan, wicker or cane and you do not want to go to the expense of having them done over. try tacking a piece of canvas securely around the edge of back or seat, turning in the edges carefully and using brass headed Jacks. Then paint the whole chair canvas and all, and you will be sur prised at the result and triff1ing ex- peQSe.

APPLY ICING TO A CAKE.

To ice the top of a cake, but not the sides, dust the top with little flour to kill the grease, which prevents the icing from running over. Brush off the excess of flour and cut a band of white paper long enough to go around the cake and one and one-haf inches wide. Grease the inside with butter and dust it with four and pin around the top of the cake so that one-haf an inch is a bove the top of the cake. Pour on the frosting evenly, and if it is thin enough it will settle in perfectly smooth surface. Let stand until it hardens, when thin bladed knife between the paper and the cake will remove the paper.

VASES FOR LAMPS.

A lovely lamp can be made up from a bronze vase, with cloisonne inlay, and shade of some Japanese silk The shade, if the inlay in a distinct pattern, is better of a plain silk, with gold fringe and tassels. Sometimes however, a parchment shade, decorat- ed with a simple design in oils, IS suitable with the cloisonne vase.

 Tub butter can be cut up into neat, accurate squares or slabs for table use if the knife is dipped in hot water each time before cutting through the but ter. When butter is cut with cold. dry knife, the grease adheres to the knife bia5s and makes ragged edges on what should be perfectly trim, smooth sections.

 Corduroy is a kind of cotton velvet which may be washed provided it is not rubbed, squeezed or ironed. If it is made up at home. stitch the seams with loose stitch to prevent pucker ing when washed. Before laundering baby's coats or other lined garments loosen the lining at the bottom to avoid bagging. Use a solution of mild soap, or for dark colors, which may streak or fade a solution of soap bark. Souse the garment up and down in soapy water, changing the water as it becomes soiled.

 One way of making ironing cool work in summer is not to do any more of it than is necessary. If your clothes have come in from the fresh sunshine and wind it really is shame to iron any of them that can possibly get along without ironing any way. Bed sheets really don't need ironing and they take a long time and are not easy to do. They should be allowed to dry thoroughly in the air and sunshine and then should be brought in and folded with considerable care. Two persons should do this, as they will need to be pulled, and one person cannot man. age this. See that they are folded per fectly even. If they are then laid un- der heavy weights the result is almost as satisfactory as if they were ironed However, if they are only laid in your linen closet they are smooth enough for most persons, and once you have slept between sheets that are fragrant with the sunshine and air you will not want to sleep under any other soxt. And, this Heshness.
