Happy Autumn DAYS.

Now that vacation time is flying
past, but not too fast for vacation
dangers TO keep up. we had better
brush up on few first aid essentials.
If anybody neglects to breathe. by
reason of drowning, asphyxiation,
electric shock or narcotic poisoning,
don't play the disgraceful part of the
helpless bystander waiting for the
arrival Of some spectacular machine
Make the victim breathe by applying
the prone pressure tSchaefer's) meth
cd of artificial respiration or resuc-
citation, which is simple enough for
any Intelligent child to do and at
least as efticacious as any machine as
yet available. Here. is the way, as
Schaefer himself describes it:
1T consists in laying the subject in
the prone posture (Which means belly
on the ground), with a thick folded
garment or blanket or pillow UNDER
meath the chest and epigastrium. The
operator puts himself athwart or at
the side of the subject, facing his
head, and places his hands on each
side over the lower part of the back.
He then slowly throws the weight of
his body forward to bear upon his
own arms, and thus presses upon the
thorax of the subject and forces air
out of the lungs. This being effected,
he gradually relaxeS the pressure by
bringing his own body up again to a
more erect position, but without moY-
ing his hands"
The removal of pressure enables
the chest to expand again from it's
own elasticity, and air is drawn into
the lungs. The movement should be
kept up for as long as may be neces-
sary. at the rate of about Is times a
minute. Any one who is not prepared
to apply this life-saving treatment in
an emergency ought to be punished
for negligence.
wherever one may go on vacation
there should always be vial of tine

What TodayMeans to You
Virgo.
BY MARY BLAKE.

Todays planetary aspects are IA
vorabIe for legitimate enterprise and
conservative effort, but are distinctly
adverse for any business involving
financial risk or speculation. 1t is an
auspicious occasion for the develop
ment of plans which have been lying
dormant, or for the accomplishment
OF good which. for some reason OF
other has been postponed. Toward late
evening the conditions show decided
Improvement, and indicate felicity and
contentment in the family circle.
A child born today will experience
very erratic health conditions. but
with clockwork system and careful
nutrition, these dangers can be sue
| ces"fully combated. Its character
will be stubborn: it's disposition
amiable, although quick to anger; it's
mentality normal. Force will have
very little effect on the child's char
acter. Only by patient affection will
1t be led along the paths desired for
1t. Self control must be instilled into
its mind, SO that in calm moments
1t need never regret what was done
or said at times of anger.
If today is your birthday, you pos
sess all the characteristics that are
usually identified with success. except
that YOU are thriftless Upton was
'ii'c " lHS true
of success. He replied: 1T is thrift
in all its phases, and principally
thrift as applied to saving" You
may have many friends, but you will
find none so steadfast. SO constant,
so ready to respond to your wants, so
capable of pushing you ahead, as a
little leather-covered book, with a
name of bank on it's cover
Thrift is the most valuable of all
habits. 1t draws the line between
the savage and the civilized man
Thrift not only develops the fortune.
it also develops character. Saving
calls for prudence, self-control. self
discipline, self-denial. Improvidence
and imprudence go hand in hand
The rational saving of money be-
gets in the Individual valuable quail
ties. Qualities which are as helpful as
the qualities begotten by thriftlessness
are injurious.
Have you ever known any one who
regretted having saved money? Have
you not known many who regretted
not having saved money?
Not for to hide it in a hedge,
Not for train attendant,
But for the glorious privilege
OF being independent"
Well known persons born on this
date are: Hanna Gould poet; John

ognomist; Stewart L Woodford
statesman, and Sarah Orne Jewett,

Then Peter told her all about the
finding of the eggs of Mrs. Black
snake, and how it had aroused his
curiosity. He had wanted to see if
Mrs. Garter Snakes eggs looked like
the eggs of Mrs. Blacksnake. He
looked somewhat ashamed of himself
as he told this.
If little Mrs. Garter Snake could
have laughed l am sure she would
have. Peter" said she, for one who
has lived as long as you have you
don't know very much. l don't lay
eggs
Peter opened his eyes very wide in
astonishment. "What?" he cried.
No said Mrs. Garter Snake. 81
don't lay eggs. 1 guess it is a good
thing 1 don't if my neighbors are
spending their time hunting for eggs.
My babies are born alive, just as your
babies are"
But Mrs. Blacksnake lays eggs"
protested Peter. u know she does,
for I've seen the eggs"
Il haven't said she doesnH, have II"
retorted little Mrs. Garter Snake.
What Mrs. Blacksnake may do is no
concern of mine. 1t is true she lays
eggs. So does little Mrs. Greensnake
But l don't. A good many members
of the snake family lay eggs, but a
good many members do not. Their
babies are born alive"
Peter remembered Buzztail the Rat
tlesnake up in the Old Pasture. He
had thought of Buzztail when Jimmy
Skunk had found Mrs. Blacksnake's
eggs. He had thought what a good
thing it would be if Jimmy could find
Mrs. Buzztaiis eggs, and so prevent
a lot of little Buzztails from Matching
out and growing up.
How about Mrs. Buzztail the Rat
tlesnake?" asked Peter.
She doesn't lay eggs" replied lit
tie Mrs. Garter Snake. Her babies
are born alive just as mine are"
We'll, 1 never!" exclimed Peter. 81

Yes. sir, I certainly have learned

"It never hurts any one to learn"
replied little Mrs. Garter Snake dryly,
and glided off into the grass.

Pile Cloths.

Probably you want at least one "silk
velvet" or 'tchiffon velvet" dress this
Winter. since the cloth is as effective
for the gracefully draped and fitted
gowns in vogue. And you may want
to know just what velvet is, and
how to tell the best qualities.
Velvet. like corduroy, veveteen and
plush, is pile" fabric-in other
words, it has a hairy or fuzzy sur
face known as "the pile" Pile is
made in the cloth in the weaving
process. by the mechanical projec-
tion of yarn from the body of the
cloth in the form of little hoops
which are afterward cut, giving the
velvety surface. The threads stand
upright and are cut off evenly. In
velvets, the threads are shorter than
in plushes, but there is no other diff
ference between the two materials.
In other pile fabrics, like Turkish
toweling. the pile" consists of loops
of threads instead of ends.
The main thing to notice about a
pile weave is whether the pile is
thick and firmly fastened, SO that it
will not come out easily. The pile
may, after a time, press down and
show the wear it has had, but it's
first beauty may, as rule. be re-
stored by steam. Cheap velvets are
hard to keep looking well, because
they are made with a cotton pile

ROSE HARTWICK THORPE.

Like many others Of the clan Of
writer's who have risen to the hall
of fame, Rose Hartwick Thorpe is a
native of the Hoosier State, where
the gift of poetry and the power of
expression must be a special birth
right to its natives. Mrs. Thorpe very
early attained worldwide fame,
which has grown with the years,
through, her authorship of the popu-
lar and touching old song. "Curfew
Shall Not Ring Tonight" known to
every school child from coast to coast.
Mrs. Thorpe has written many other
beautiful poems. and books of song,
but none has firmer hold on uni
versal sentiment than this one of her
girlhood.
Mrs. Thorpe has added California
inspiration to her native gift and
continues her literary work, and
though absorbed in it above every
thing else. can be brought to think
about such commonplace necessities
as food. Though not particularly In
terested In the study Of foods, Mrs.
Thorpe has suggested a good SUBJ
stitute for meat:
Smoked Tuna a la Creole.-Chop
one green pepper and two or three
young onions very fine Salt and
add cayenne pepper to taste and let 1t
simmer slowly for ten minutes in
four teaspoons of butter. Stir in one
cup Of stewed tomatoes; cream with
a heaping tablespoon of flour and a
little bit Of rich milk. When this has
cooked sufficiently, add a cup of
on toasted bread or crackers. Makes
a delicious luncheon or even q
dinner dish.

HOW TT STARTED
BY JEAN NEWTON.
The Map.

Maps had their origin not in human
ity's interest in the study of geog-
raphy. but in the necessity for COL
lecting the taxes of an ancient king!
For the first map on record Is one
made in the reign of Sargon. King of
Akaad. one of the states of Babylonia
which existed before the formation of
the Babylonian or Assyrian empire.
The date of this map is about $500
B. c., and 1t is a typographical sur
vey which was prepared for the pur-
pose Of taxation.
AS early as 1900 b. c., map making
becametommon in Egypt. These were
still only local maps, however, their
object being the apportfoning of land
and adjusting of boundaries after the
Nile floods.
The first map of the world was made
in the nth century B. c. by Anaxi-
mandier, a pupil OF TLales of Miletus,
the first student Of worldwide geog-
raphy. And the real founder of scien-
tif1c geography and map making as
we know it today was Aristotle.

WHEN WE co SHOPPING
BY MRS. HARLAND III. ALLEN.

Ihe better velvets are those with
SILK pile and d cotton back, and
the finest of all are a1l-silk, both
pile and back
In making garments from pile fab
rlcs, you must be careful TO see that
the pie runs the same way in all
parts or the garment. because the
ERECT Is quite different where the
pile runs up from that where it runs
down. Some of the pile fabrics are
hard to keep clean. since they catch
dust and lint easily and must be
brushed often.
Pile fabrics are particularly de-
sirable for Winter, since with their
soft, attractive surfaces, which give
depth and richness not found in
any other weaves, they not only look
warm, but are warm. For this rea-
son the pile fabrics are not appro-
Pirate for summer time.
Just within the last few wears plush
imitation furS" have come into great
favor. SILK seal plush, broadtail or
baby lamb, Persian lamb Russian
lamb and pony skin are almost as
popular and much less expensive
than the genuine animal furs
In carpet manufacture too, as well
as in manufacture of cloths for cloth
ing, the pile weave is very impor-
tant. Brussels, Wilton, tapestry-all
are pile fabrics. Chenille cloth is
an interesting fabric, which has pile
on both surfaces

Imaginary Insults

Casting do1vn i,noginotions, and every
high thing that is exalted against the
knoztledge of God.-II Cor, ks.
The source of much of our per-
Sonal and national loneliness is
imaginary insults.
We are all the time reading some
thing else into what is said or done
concerning ourselves than what ap-
pears to the dispassionate observer.
The great missionary, William
Carey, translated an Indian story that
illustrates this folly:
A jackal informed a tiger that a
neighboring tiger had sent word that
he must give up his jungle or fight.
To which the first tiger responded
by telling the jackal to inform the
other tiger that he was ready to
fight for his honor
But one of his ministers suggested
to the bellicose tiger that he in
veStigate the report before acting.
Suppose I told you crow had
bitten off one of your ears. would
you not feel to see if you had really
lost it?'
Overwhelmed by the logic of this
question, the tiger Investigated the
report of his warlike neighbor and
found that it was all malevolent
rumor.
HoW true 10 the lie that is both
of national and private conduct,
We set a chip of sensitiveness or
pride on our shoulder, and then If
some one accidentally bumps us in a
crowd or If we get nervous and
knock off the chip ourselves, we are
offended and ofteh belligerent.
It's all pretty childish, isn't it?
Then why continue to do it?

Deciding When Scarf Is Shawl
BY MARY MARSHALL.

When is a shawl not a shawl, and
when is 1t a scarf? This is a riddle
that might puzzle many of us. The
popular notion, apparently, is that a
scarf remains a scarf so long as it
remains longer and comparatively
narrow. When it becomes square or
nearly square it becomes a shawl
Rllt such a distinction does not
always hold. 1t is a fact of history
that when the shawl was a novelty
in Europe, in 1886, il was six yards
long and two yards wide. If such
wraps appeared today they would un-
doubtedly be classed as scarfs. Nova

ture of iodine at hand This should
be used to smear. swab or paint every

the wound with water or other LIQUID.
and. having applied the iodine, imme-
diately cover the wound with a sterile
dressing, be it collodion, gauze and
bandage, adhesive plaster or sterile
petrolatum.
In an emergency, too, where one
must drink water from a question
able source. the danger of typhoid in
lection may be obviated by adding to
each quart of water one drop of tine
ture of iodine and allowing the mix
ture to stand Is minutes before YOU
drink any. Usually chlorin prep
arat1on is used for the emergency
dls1nfection of water for drinking,
but the tincture of iodine has been
found efficacious for this purpose and
recommended by the United States
Public Health Service. The drinking
OF quart or two of water so treated
would not give one more iodine than
is good for the health generally.
In my judgment, or at least so far
as l should be concerned in my own
case or the case Of my own child, the
f1rst-aid application of tincture of
iodine as described for ordinary
wounds above is equally effective
first-aid treatment for the scratches
or bites of animals, except the bite of
a poisonous snake
