SEE YOURSELF.

One of the most useful pieces oI furniture that any house can own IS a fuu length mirror It IS not Vau1ty entirely which induces woman to look into a mirror. 1t IS an osso earns and commendable desire to improve her personal appearance. The man who was father to six young oausn ters had the right idea when he hao long mirrors set all over ms mousse s that his girls could scarcely go 1nIo any room without being able to see themselves from head to toe He un- derstood psychology. He knew Una the girls would grow up holdlng tnsln- tni selves properly and wearing Ineir clothes well, if their faults Of walking and standing were always evident
 If you do not like great many is to have one hanging on the inside of your closet door. Incidently th1s is an economical idea for good quaI- ity full-length mirror with beVeIed edges and even the he .o PlalnesJ n1nnaI "oou
 But it is perfectly practical to pur- chase a piece of glass 4 1-2 1t. by Z, which can be hung in the cheapest frame on the inside of the cIoset door' which will give you a full-4ength re- flection of yourself; 1-2 feet, by the way, is no where near a grown Wo- mans size, but if you hang the mirror with its top at the level of your head you will have no difficulty in seeing your feet and all your figure when you stand a few feet away from it. Such a mirror would not cost very much Besides it could be swung so as to reflect every part of the room, so that with the aid of your bureau mirror, you can. get an excellent back and front view of yourself. It will De a great help when you dress.
 Very Anxious-You have not in jured your skin by this excessive use of hot water, it will improve very quickly, if you follow the bath with cool then cold water and occasionally rub a. small piece of ice over the face and throat.
 Waiting-The hair on the legs and arms will be less noticeable if you bleach it with peroxide.
 Bobby-Bobbed hair becomes oily more quickly than long hair because the scalp is secreting the same as it would for longer hair. In such a case shampoo oftener than you would or dinarly.
 Goidie-With improved health your hair will likely recover but you car hasten it by nassaging the scalp each day and applying a good tonic several times each week.

 More than a year and a half ago Mrs. Minnie Neuman, living on Canton road, west of Wayne, lost $500 diamond earring while she was feeding the barn yard fowl. Repeated searching failed to restore the same
 From time to time Mrs. Neu- man sold ducks from their flock of 100 or more. Mrs. Augustus Nicklas, sister of Mrs. Stein, pur- chased three ducks from Mrs. Neuman for New Years dinner.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
 Granular Lids

I am a woman of 29 years My eyes look red and the lids are kind of scaly. They are always red. When l was in school I wore glasses right but if do close work, like sew lng or reading, my eyes get sore and often they itch. I have thought that my trouble is granu1ated eyelids Can you give me remedy? What has caused me to think more of this of late is that my little boy three years of age seems to have eyes like mine. They are reddish at times.
 Answer-Granular lids, Or trach- or1a, is catching, as is. any form of pus-producing sore eye. In its most dreadful state it is rife in Egypt- Egyptian OpthaImia-and is spread by flies. You and your son should be under constant treatment by a good doctor.
 Can't Sleep.
 Suppose l retire at 10:30 p. m. I may feel as tired and sleepy as it is possible for anyone to feel before I get into bed, but after I do I can't fall asleep for anything. I feel so restless and sleepless. I toss about the bed for hours and when I do fall early in the morning.
 Answer-Do you wear night stock lngs, very warm and of wool? I eau ton you to take nothing but hot milk to make you sleep-not drugs at your age.

Live, work, sleep in fresh air.
 MORE ASTHMA

Which is the best climate for an asthma patient - California or Col orado.
 Answer-Please don't ask me to play favorites as to climates, especi- ally with relation to asthma. Climate plays a great part in the development of asthma, and here the matter is al- most wholly one of idiosyn crasy-of peculiarity in the individual Ex .remeS of temperature - excessive -essive dryness or. on the other hand, excessive noisture-Or a thunder stOrm may induce the seizure. There Ire those who suffer from dampness, combined with either heat or cold, md those who are especially affect here is not sufficient change of air, ts in deep valleys and thick forests. In the latter case a breeze sprin ging up will relieve the attack.
 The family physician will do won- ders for asthma Iby treating all ca he upper air passages. Dust is to be avoided; also any one odor that has been found by experience to bring on ! seizure must be avoided.
 Various climates may be tried. One which is equable, fairly dry, of mod 4rate altitude and fairly dust-free will be right in many cases, but not n all. In many cases a climate of ln opposite sort to that which the patient has been living in will relieve him. Thus when the asthmatic pa tient has been living in a moist eli mate, a dry one will help him; the asthmatic who has lived inland may do well at the seashore. Oddly enough, the air of cities suits many sufferers better than the pure rural fir. DampneSS in air or soil is not favorable, generally. for asthmatics.
