The Weekly Manicure.

II you have given your nails two

using the orangewood stick, the
weekly manicure should not take you
more than fifteen minutes or SO.
You will need the following i'm

a box of emery boards. an orange
wood stick, a pointed file or cuticle
knife, manicure scissors. buffer, pol
ishing paste or powder. q bleach ana

it isn't, really so much. If your long
Ale has a pointed blade you do not
need a cuticle knife. your cream can
be ordinary cold cream or vaseline.
and the best bleach is lemon juice.
Emery boards cost about three cents
a dozen, orangewood sticks are about
three for five cents. and l think the
one I am using I have had for five
years.
Quickly shape the nails to a rounded
point with the flexible file. then soak
the hand in warm soapy water. Clean
under the nail with the pointed file,
and smooth the edge with the orange
wood stick. With the cuticle knife or
the pointed blade Of the file scrape the
dead cuticle from around the nail.
Then with your scissors clip the
cuticle to a smooth edge. Take par

edge of the nail joins the skin. Hang

Autoinu for Wolves.

The motorcycle threatens to out
rival the broncho as an instrument of
locomotion on Western ranches and
cattle ranges According to the Illus
trated World, cowboys are using it
for rounding up cattle, driving in stray
animals, inspecting long lines OF
fences and other such work. By all
odds the most remarkable purpose for
which the motorcycle is employed,
however, is that of chasing coyotes.
Such a machine, if the terrain be not
toe difficult can easily overtake one Of
those little gray wolves, firing the
beast down to a point where it can no
longer turn and dodge successfully.
Then it is simply matter of whirl
of the Iariat, and the vicious brute,

TRUTH ABOUT AVERAGE MAN
Not Bad Fellow at Heart, and Really
Is at Least Entitled to
federation.

The average man is not bad fellow
when you come to know him. You have
to make his acquaintance if you are
not to hold yourself aloof from this hu-
man, interdependent world, remarks a
writer in the Philadelphia Ledger. He
constitutes majority. 1t is by his
vote that candidates are set up and
issues determined and business gov
erned and charities supported and
plays patronized. There is great
deal of money in pleasing the aver
age man. Moreover, the level of his
tastes is rising, though pessimists re-
fuse to see it or to say so. He is ca
pable of education and he has travelled
far since his training began
He needn't always be given all that
he asks for; sometimes he makes mis-
takes, and sometimes he wants what
isn't good for him. Sometimes he
loses his head, and in an incendiary
or inebriate temper, loses that which a
cooler judgment in calmer hour leads
him to worry for But on the whole
he is strangely reasonable and patient
and self-controlled. 1t is touching to
find how often he is doing the best
he can, according to the light he has.
He serves the world far better than
some eccentric and unconventional
mortals who sheer at him for following
dull, Unconditional routine.
Leaders of men have learned to deal
with the average man, to talk his Ian
guage and to understand his ways.
They have taught the rank and file
to discover latent capacity and TO
reveal a strength hidden and unsus-
pected. They have had faith in 1.-The
general good sense and honest inten-
lions of mankind" They have gen.
timely loved their fellows and their
sympathy has been real and manifest.
Neither in war nor in peace Is a VIC
tory to be won unless the captains put
