CHANGED IDEAS OF BEAUTY
Women No Longer Go to Extremes
Which Were Thought Necessary
Some Centuries Ago.

What women will not do to be
thought beautiful is astounding even
now, but listen to these facts and
you'll agree that in 10 centuries felni-
ninity has gained something of COM
mon sense.
In Japan women used to gid their
teeth, while in the Indies they painted
them red. Guzerat women blackened
them.
In Greenland they colored their faces
blue and yellow.
The Peruvians did all sorts Of stunts
to flatten their heads. and everybody
knows how the Chinese women bound
up their feet to stop the growth.
The fashion of patches came from
Arabia, probably beginning with the
astrological signs, but drifting into con-
ceits like small ships cut from the
black courtplaster worn at the courts
Of the Louis.
In Louis XV's time the women even
went SO far as to paste on moles in
eyebrows-anG now the girls are pull
ing them out to such mere sugges-
tons YOU might think eyebrows were
vulgar or common!

Here's a Walters Problem.

A recent BARRIERS strike in England
raises once again the matter of tips.
How and to what extent we shall tip Is
one of the minor problems of life and
one that certain eccentrics have solved
in unconventional fashion, observes the
Manchester Guardian. A waiter in one
of the New York "swell' restaurants
told Of a man who on sitting down to
dinner tore S. bill in half and gave
him one-half, telling him that he should
have the other if he gave him satisfac-
ton. 81 took pains to serve him poor
ly," said the waiter afterward, ''to
show him that 1 did not care for his
money. l was so careless that when
he was leaving he refused me the
other half. / pointed out to him that
the piece he had was no good to him as
it was and offered to buy it from him
for 50. He thought deeply minute
and declined. Then I offered to sell
him my half for So; somehow or other
this appealed to him and he bought it
and seemed happy. I'll bet he hasn't
stopped figuring out yet whether he
won or lost. One thing he's sure of
he didn't tip the waiter"

Strychnia Most Useful and
Most Used Stimuiant to the
Heart and Nervous System

Ask any physician "What is the
most useful and most used stimulant
! to the heart and nervous system?" and
he will answer "Strychnla." notes q
writer in Milwaukee Sentinel.
Strychna is an alkalOid found orig
inally in the seed Of the strychnos nux-
vomica, the poison-nut tree found in
India, Burnah and Siam and growing
also in Cochin China and Australia.
The tree is of moderate size and
has fruit the size of a small orange,
with hard shell and bitter pulp in
closing one to five seeds, less than one
inch in diH"' ter and One-fourth inch
thick n ped like disks. 1t is
the hytel It substance known, and
wher ne has heart failure, or nervous
exhaustion, or is run down or needs a
tonic, some doctor is sure to give him
the alkaloid from one Of these peculiar
Indian trees
Text books on medicine frequently
refer to emergency heart stimulants,"
meaning by this drugs used by n.y.
podermic injection to produce prompt
stimulation Of weakened heart.
Some Of the most valuable heart slim
ulants require good deal of time aft
err being given to produce their effects,
hence the need Of emergency heart
stimulants. Strychnine, we know, is
splendid emergency heart stimulant.
A tree which has various species
several hundred, in fact-throughout
the world, and is Of some medical
interest, is the acacia. The acacia
senegal is the type Of tree which for
nishes gum acacia, or gum arabic.
While acacia is not possessed of any
marked curative properties of itself, It
is constituent Of many important
preparations in pharmacy, as, for in
stance, in the making Of emulsions,
where its heavy mucilaginous quail
ties make it a valuable vehicle for oily
and resinOus substances. 1t is also
widely used in the preparation of pills
and troches.
Gum catechu, substance contain
ing fannie acid and used in dyeing,
which was at one time used as rem
edy in. cOlitis and dysentery, comes
from the acacia catechu and acacia
suma, both native to India.

Japan's Urban Population
Rapidly Increasing as in
Other Civilized Countries

When we speak of Japan mainly as
an agricultural country this gives an
inadequate conception of the great
strength Of the urban population which
is increasing in Japan as in other civ
ilized countries, writes II. M. Hyndman
in Asia Magazine. Apart from Tokyo,
with it's 100000 inhabitants, and Os3-
ka, with 100000, there are five other
cities which have together a pOpula-
ton of 100000, and there are in all
66 towns with population Of over
10000 each. Moreover, the greater
part Of the larger cities and towns
are collected close together in COM
parison with the total area Of the
japanese islands. Railways now con-
meet the main Industrial and agricul-
tural centers, supplementing the adj
mirable water communications by sea
and canal. This concentration of in
dustrialism and Improvement in trans
port combine to give Japan focus Of
material influence which can scarcely
fail to increase her pressure upon
China in time to come. A glance at
the map shows how this long process
sion Of islands from Saghalien to For
mosa, lying like a series Of wharves
along the coast of eastern Asia, with
its outposts and inlets at Corea, on
the LiaOtung peninsula, at Kiao-Chaou
and now at Fukien, gives Japan an
enormous commercial as well as a
strategical advantage in the competi-
tive war of the near future, as COM
pared with her rivals in Europe or III
America. Never in history was so re-
markably favorable geographical
situation in the hands of one nation,
controlled by men capable Of taking
full advantage of it and looking to the
future of Asia as in some sort the
heritage of the japanese race.

HOW DIAMOND CUTTERS WORK
Rough Stone Is Considered Fit for
Personal Adjournment.

Few people who wear diamonds
know the story that lies behind them
To most of them The diamond is az
agreeable means OF personal decora
tOn-something attracts the eye
IN a jewelers. window and is pur-
chased al hour or 50 la III its COM
Portable setting Of platinum or gold.
But let Us seeawhat lies beyond. Let
MS glimpse the long road that stretches
between the miner and the wearer.
There are three processes in the con-
version Of the rough stone into flash
ing brilliance. The first one consists
in cleaning the course stone of defec-
tive parts and splitting off the flaws,
The second is the cutting, which gives
the stone it's form and. in rough way,
determines the number of faces 1t
shall have. Finally, there is the pol
ishing, which gives to these faces
their clearness and brlliancy.
The sawyer when he finds flaw,
inserts the diamond into a sort of
cup filled with a fusible cement.
Then, by means of an instrument fur
nished with recently cut diamond,
the edge of which projects sharply, he
rubs on one of the stones the pointed
end of the other, after which he strikes
lightly in order to separate the two
pieces.
The cutter uses somewhat similar in
struments to the sawyer. He forms
only about one-half of the faces, leav-
ing it to the polisher to form the re-
mainder.
The diamond is then polished on an
iron plate rotating rapidly and impreg-
mated with diamond dust and oil. It
is set in an alloy Of lead and tin in the
form of cone, of which the stone Oc-
cupieS the summit. The operation, as
described in the Modern Hospital,
takes long time and requires the ex-
ercise of extreme patience, but the re-
suit is certainly in every sense Of the
word a "brilliant'' one.
