uAE DEBTS.

New attention has been directed to me 1ussticn of our foreign debts and tne pro-ects ot their payment by the aA- dress that was made before the bankers convention by Reg.nald McKenna CT England
 Much has been said in behalf of the oarcelatfon of such debts. There are thore who openly advocate it. but there -r. also those who quite as strenuousy oupo~e H. This opposition is based not o-f~ on the fact that the debt is just me hut in the interest of peace 1t snoulo not be cast aside.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY

Washing once fortnight Is nee essity for greaEy hsir, but if possible 1t should be shampooed once in three weeks.
 If the hands have become rough and reddened with wind. sun or housework. rub good cream into them, and wear a pair of large gloves. so that the cream may remain on all night.
 If the hair is inclined to be eify dc not use a brush too often, as it will only bring the oil from the scalp over the hair, and encourage the new flow of oil into the roots.
 You efn do much to improve the beau ty of your eyes if you take care of the lashes and brows. Brush them each night with an eyebrow brush and if they are thin, use suggestion of vaseiine or oi- i've of.

FAMOUS ACTRESSES
Rachel.


 A frail little girl came on March s4. 1891; to add new light and new cares to the gypsy peddler's camp of Abraham Felix Felix was Jewish itineFant with no idea that might spell thrift. He wandered through Germany. France and Switzerland vending his wares. As they shifted about, his family grew.
 They had reached Munt. Switzerland. when the stork brought his second daughter, who was named Elisa Rachel Felix, but who was called The Golden Sun. Little did the wanderers think that she was fated to become the most dazzling star of the French stage. the toast of princes, and the envy Of less fortunate luminaries. She meant to Fe- lix merely one more mouth to feed.
 After a time Felix settled down at Ly- ons, France. He got a miserable stipend for teaching German. The other mem bers of the family sought. as best they might, to aid. Rachel and her elder sister, Sarah. both mere children, sang in the streets for money and became a part and parcel of the gutter-hardened life of the town. Felix drifted to Paris. Here the girls wandered the boulevards, singing for little coins. choron. eho- rus-master, saw them and took them to his school. He saw that Rachel had more recitative than singing talent and got Pagnon Saint Aulaire to take her in his dramatic class.
 | Rachel, then 13, was overjoyed- AL though she was lean and hungry, and the street life had left her without a smile m her soul, she showed at first a i weakness for comedy, as most peoFle start life with a bad guess as to their real powers. But Saint Aulaire saw her heavier capacity and developed it. When Sale director of the Theatre Francaise and told him that the girl was the only person capable of revivlng the majol works of the tragic authors.
 The seFawny. pale Rachel recited th1 lines of Hermione and Andromaque, and won an engagement. By error she went 10 the Conservateire, where she wal subjected to the yilest treatment. to.s she had better go back to the streets An intoleFaible affront forced her tC leave Saint Aulaire, faithful, got hei a place at Gymnase Theatre. At hel debut in 1887, she made an instant sue cess in La Vendeene. She wanted thi Comedie Franchise for 8 field, and woT it after bitter struggle.

rHE HUNTING srAsoN.

Right in keeping with the demands of the situation was the proclamation by Governor Lake suspending the hunting season. It was for the one purpose of giving needed protection to the wood land of the state, where hunters have been each year responsible for many costly fires. When the order was issued rain was not in sight and the season promised to open with fields and forests carpeted with tinder-Iike material ready to burst into troublesome fires the mo- ment q discarded match, cigarette or glowing pipe ashes were scattered amongst 1t.
 Apparently the weatherman was eeg- nizant of the situation also. At least the rain that has fallen within the past two days has been considerable and it changes the conditions materially. It has soaked the leaves which have fallen though a wind would soon overcome it, but there has been removed that dry condition which has prevailed for the past few weeks. As yet the trees nav not lost many of their leaves. but hunt ing under the cohditions today car probably be done with greater safety a: far as fires are concerned than has been the case in q number of years in tn, past at the opening of the season.
 Could it have been known that ther' | was going to be rain the order woulc ir all probability not have been issued. was a protective move that Was ren dered unnecessary because of the ram fall and it seems probable that. there vii be less danger from fires for the nex several days than there may be mont from now. At any rate the order seem ed to have got the weatherman bus and in view of his fire prevention wcrl the suspension of the order was the log ical action. It doesn't mean, however that all possible care should not be use . by hunters in connection with fires c the use of. their firearms.

MAKING SHOES LAsr.

Boots and shoes should never be all lowed to get into a bad state they should be repaired as soon as ever they begin to show signs of wear If a heel is permitted ito go right over" the whole shape of the shoe is lost a new heel can be put on but the upper will always tend to lean over. Small pieces too can be put on the toes in the same way, or if toe pieces are not liked, a very thin rubber sole can be attached. If a sole becomes worn right through it means stripping the shoe absolutely bare on the bottom, which is bad for the upper ss it is apt to strain it.
 Anyone accustomed to much walking. or who is in-the habit of standing much should invest in sole protectors, metal for very heavy wear and indiarubber for ordinary everyday use. Boots should never be left lying about after they are taken off; they should be put on boot-trees, and cleaned as soon
 as they are dry. Never, by the way, dry
 pair of shoes in front of a fire, or on l a radiator; it rots the leather and makes i them shrink.
 Boot polish helps to nourish the leath. CT if it Is really good with oil in it
 so choose polish carefully. l Boots which are not wanted for lone 1 time ought to be covered over with ! dublin or vaseline and placed in a dry place, either on trees, or stuffed witt

CHILD TRAINING
"Faliing-FaniRs."
By Martha Gallaudet warins.

This title, so familiar to students of the Mother Play Book, hy Friedrich Froebel, is the introduction to a large subject To those who wonder that a man, as well as philosopher. should have spent his time on a book of Nursery Plays. we have only to point out the deep psychology underlying each play.
 The psychology of fear as an inherit ance, an instinct, a symptom as due to repressions, unconscious impressions, "ta- boes' imposed from without, has been the subject of much modern psychological | discussion, so it is we'll some ines to go back to beginnings and look at it simply and from practical standpoint.
 Better a broken arm than the fear of I it all one's life" says Jean-Paul Richter | Better still to have neither. says the mother who considers every accident and every disease that befalls her child a di- rect accusation that she had failed some where and somehow in knowledge or care. "Falling-Falling' is a simrle exercise | for the tiny child, the mother taking her supporting hands from the child and catching him again as he begins to fall, giving him the suggestion of support, freedom. and suppSt again, before the feeling of freedom turns into that of fear. I have played this with all my children when they were getting their air-bath, to their great delight.
 From this point may come the first i'm portant training of the early years, how to do things freely but without fear Se- cause one does them correctly, and there fore safely. Show the little child how te lift his feet to avoid stumbling and trip ping. Show him how to open and shat doors and drawers properly. and there \ will be no mashed fingers Show him the
 danger of all openings like stairs anc
 windows. Teach him to go carefully uI and down staics and there will be no neet
 for gates and bars, Show him that ban
 lsters are to hold by and that stairs may
 be safely descended one foot at a time and after instruction let him do it him
 self until the right ueevement becomes habit Caution should be taught iron the start, but never fear. child know no fear naturally and to teach it to hin
 is crime against nature
 A child of twenty months was on,
 day descending the stairs in the approv l ed way when his nat got over his eye and. his feet slipped, but as he had beeJ
 taught to do, he el1ng firmly to the ban ] isters, and when we reached him wa. a holding up his hold weight by one club - by hand. glad to be rescued, but not Ii . the slightest degree alarmed for his safe d ty, merely remarking by way Of explain . ing his novel position Baby buys at er
 got in his eyes"
 !, The same little boy from this age u . would sing himself to sleep in the dar absolutely without fear. He has bee
 allowed to experiment in every possibl : way, under direction at first then alone and although a few unforeseen expert > ments have proved disastrous to properts
 he has fine use of himself and of materis
 things.
 This is the. physical result but there z much more to it than mere safety. Hi Q disposition is of the cheeFiest And z finds joy in everything.
