Quick, Safe Way
 to Remove Hairs
(Toilet Talks)

Keep a little delatone powder on your dressing table and when ugly, hairy growths appear, make a paste with a little of the powder and some
 water, apply and let remain on the hairy surface for or minutes, then rub off, wash the skin and the hairs
 have vanished. This Urea tment is quite harmless and rarely more than one application is required, but to avoid disappointment care should be used to buy the real delatone.

There was an immense cottonwood.
four feet thick and very tall. which
stood in Nebraska almost In the en-
ter of the continent, half way between
New York and San Francisco, which
was within one mile of that center.
Under Its branches rested thousands
of '49-ers en- route to the Eldorado Of
the Pacific coast. 1t was the best
known camping ground on the old
California trail. From 1S49, when the
gold seekers rushed across the great
plains down to the completion of the
Union Pacific railway. the great tree
was a budapest to the wagon trains
going west.
After the railway was completed
there was no further use for the old
tree and 1t eventually rotted away and
died. In 1910 a monument was
erected on the spot that the tree had
occupied. 1t represents the trunk of
a giant cottonwood and bears this in
scription: "On this spot stood the
original Lone Tree on the old Cali
fornia trail"

A curious form of water hole Is
found in the deserts of western Aus
tralia. dry by day but yielding an
abundant supply of water by night.
The flow Of water Is preceded by
weird kissing and sounds of rushing
air. On examining one 1t was found
that the water supply occurred in a
long narrow trench, at the bottom Of
which was a thin plate of gneiss, sep
arated by q cavity from the main rock
mass beneath. Apparently the heat
of the day causes this plate to ex-
pand In the form of a depression, in
which the water retreats. When 1t
cools and contracts at night 1t forces
first air and hen water back into the
trench.

1t as being derived from the Hindu

Shells Help Oil ceoIopist.

The little jellylike animals which
the scientist calls Foraminifera swarm
so abundantly In the sea that their
tiny cast-of shells In some places
make up a considerable part of the
sediments which are laid down on
the sea bottom and which in time
may become beds Of rock in a land
area. The small size and the COM
pactness of these shells protect them
from some of the accidents that be
fan the remains of larger animals. so
that In many samples Of well borings
the Foraminifera are the only shells
that have survived In recognizable
form the vicissitudes of drilling. In
the hands of the specialist trained to
identify fossils, the Foraminifera
may furnish the only available clue
TO the age of rock ~inclosing them
and consequently to the existence Of
strata or structure favorable or un-
favorable to the accumulation Of oil,
gas or water. according to the United
States geological survey.

Good Possibility Of lite Being Made
Into a Reasonably Productive
Agricultural Country.

n the Sahara will some day
blossom like the rose,r or at any rate
like a reasonably productive agricul-
tural country. is the gist Of an article
by j. Nicholas Brusse In La Nation of
Paris. For more than a quarter of a
century. Mr.. Brusse declares, although
people in general have thought of the
Sahara as an enormous, permanently
hopeless expsnse Of sand, those ac-
quainted with the results of a geo.
graphical survey conducted about 1893
have known also that the Sahara Is
not absolutely unfit for either plant or
animal life. Rain falls sometimes In
the great desert and there are under
ground streams that could be made
available for water. The present Gases
could be developed and others created
provided a beginning were made by
establishing strategic roads and intro
ducing a sense of law and order among
the desert tribes for the security of
those who were trying to develop the
country. In its entirety the region In
a good deal Of spontaneous vegeta-
ton; 1t grows a number Of forage
plants and shrubs that serve as pas
turage for caravans, and could doubt
less be improved and made valuable
by cultivation. Fig trees, apricots.
peaches, grapes and various cereals
have been grown in the GASES.

PRINCES o WAS GOOD
ity That is indispensable
to Politician.

On n occasion Mr.. Louis Sterne,
an engineer and inventor, and a
friend of Charles Dickens, showed the
late Edward VII, then prince of
Wales, his exhibits at South Kensing-
tor and the Crystal palace.
"The next time 1 met the prince"
said Mr.. Sterne, II was crossing
Picadilly, at the top of st. James
street. In trying to escape being run
down ! ran directly into the arms
of his royal highness. He at once
recognized me and said: MFR. Sterne,
you should give this traffic time and
never cross the bows l expressed
surprise that he should recognize me,
to which he replied that he never for
got either face or name II associated
with any matter Of interest"
Mr.. Sterne met the prince again
at a picture exhibition where a por-
trait of the late w. H. Smith was
hung. Turning to the princess, his
royal highness said:
"Hallo, there's Smith !"
At once a mar standing near turned
around and acknowledged the recog-
milton, offering his hand. which the
prince unhesitatingly accepted. When
this man, whose name happened to
be Smith. recognized the prince, he
became embarrassed and, with the lady
who accompanied him, made his exit
as soon as possible.
