Jack" said Mr.. sprinkie-Blow,
there are few times every year
when you are decidedly useful. In
the fall, when you are needed to
make the grapes and pumpkins
sweet and to crack open the chest
nut burs. in the winter when the
lSiddies wish to sled-ride and skate,
and in the spring when old Man
Flood gets out before 1t is time for
him. He got out a few minutes ago
by mistake and you know what he
will do. He pulls the ice-stoppers
out Of all the little streams and they
go rushing into the big streams and
then there's a food. I'm going
to telephone to Mr.. sun to so away.
for when he's shining Old Man
Flood can get the shoppers out as
easy as pie. Now. Jack, you jump
down to the earth and follow Old
Man Flood and whenever he pulls
out a stopper, you freeze it in again.
Besides, II the ice on the top OF
Ripple Creek is breaking, freeze up
the cracks. When you are through.
let me know"

pERsPIRING HANDS.

Perspiring hands are the cause Of
much annoyance TO the home as
well as the business woman. They
are expensive, too, for they ruin
more gloves than the average wo-
man can afford to buy in a year.
A simple means Of overcoming the
excess perspiration. unless the cause
is some deep-seated physical disor-
der, is the hot bath. Dip the. palms
of your hands into very hot water
and after drying them rub them
with a little boracic acid powder.
Alternate baths OF hot and cold
are also good. Put the palms in
water as hot as can well be stood.
Let them remain five minutes and
then give them the cold bath.
A good lotion for perspiring hands
can be made at home by combining
a quart of water with IA pint OF
wheat bran, y ounces OF EPSON
salts and two ounces OF bay rum.
The bay rum should be added after
the other ingredients have been
mixed and stood over night.

Jack Frost, being thin, squeezed
