Household Hints

Improved Hot Water Bottle
Wiring a soft cloth out of warm
water, fill the bottle with hot water
and wrap the cloth around it. This
makes the cloth steam and is far
more beneficial for earache, tooth
ache, and neuralgia than the dry
heat of the bottle alone.
Ice Cream Stain
For an ice cream stain on goods
try sponging the cloth with chloro.
form or ether.
When Ironing
If little salt is added to the
starch, it will give more luster to the
linen.

Contant Reader: If you have had
teeth extracted and have not had
the spaces filled in with bridge work
there will be hollows in your cheeks,
and your dentist should be consulted
to remedy the condition. Otherwise
you need to increase your weight
generally, the face taking on its pro-
portionate share of the increase.
J. X. E.; A bunion is an inflam-
nation of the joint of the large toe.
II may be corrected by surgical
operation if of long standing. If
you have just noticed it, it is posi-
Bile the wearing of an inner straight
lined shoe will relieve the condition,
A pad placed around the bunion will
relieve the pain,
Miss L. S.: Cold feet are the
result of poor circulation. A cold
plunge or sponge bath, followed by
vigorous rubbing will improve the
circulation. A daily walk of four
or five miles keeps the blood circu-
lating properly.
u. S. E.: Eyebrow plucking
should be done by an expert only,
otherwise your eyebrows will not
match. When an eyebrow is broad,
with hairs dotted over the eyelid, it
is advisable to have these hairs re-
moved and also any hair over the
nose.
Miss T. c.: If you're in the habit
af kifin, xntt. nails htrild mn unnr
nervous system by daily cold salt
water rubdowns, brisk walk of four
or five miles, or if this is impossible,
exercise in the open air. The finger
tips may be painted with a bitter
liquid to help along.
Mrs. v. M: Brittle nails should
be soaked every night for 10 or Is
minutes in olive oil or sweet almond
oil which has been slightly warmed.
Put the oil in a dish at a depth
sufficient to cover the nails. Use an
orange stick for cleaning them. 1t
is preferable to knife or file as a
pointed instrument is apt to cause
roughening of the under surface
of the nail.
Worried: The texture of the skin
of the face depends mostly upon the
size of the pores. In skin of fine
texture pores are not observable.
The size of the fat glands and their
pores varies in different individuals
Just as the fineness and quantity of
the hair varies. That is why some
people suffer from blackheads and
complexion ills while others do not.
M. J. c.: Borax applied to bath
may make the water feel softer, but
it's general use is not recommended
as it is an alkali and abstracts fat
from the skin, softens the horny
layer, and leaves it dry and thinned.
Fanny-There is no way of fat
tening the face without adding
weight generally. Skin foods do not
make fat, nor will any fat applied
to the skin make the face more
plump. If your face is thin, you
may need to increase your weight.
Mrs. v. R.-Every person should
have his own wash cloth and towel.
After using the wash cloth it should
be rinsed and hung up to dry. At
least once week il should be sent
to the laundry to be boiled, destroy
ing all germs which may Turk in the
cloth. If any member of the family
has skin disease, great precaution
must be used to protect the others.

OF all known drugs, creosote is rec

one of the greatest healing agencies for
persistent coughs and colds and other
forms Of throat troubles. Creomulsion
contains, in addition to creosote, ther
healing elements which soothe and heal
the infected membranes. and stop the

creosote goes on to the stomach, is alb
sorbed into the blood, attacks the seat
of the trouble and checks the growth

suffering with terrible pains across
my back. And along with this
trouble, I also had dreadful head
aches and dizzy spells.
81 read so many testimonials of
indianapolis people, who benefited
by using Konjola that I decided
there was something to this
medicine, and I started taking it
myself. The first bottle helped me
wonderfully and now since I have
taken my third bottle am feeling
like never had sick day in my
life. 1t is a pleasure to enjoy my
meals now, without any fear of
stomach misery afterward. I am

and 1 am relieved of night rising
and the other miseries I used to
suffer. I feel fine in the mornings

This Konjola is G. new medical
formula, containing the medicinal
juices of % natural plants and made
into one compound which restores
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels to more healthy, normal &C
ton. Konjola banishes the poisons
from within the system cleansing
the important functionary organs,
thus ending the aches, pains and
miseries SO common among people
today.
New feelings of health come from
the effect of Konjola in natural

relief is generally permanent and
sure.

and explaining the merits of this
remedy. Konjola is being sold by
every Hook drug store in this city,

r was in porcelain that China
topped the world, and
IL through porcelain that her
name became household word In
lands that knew nothing of her
greatness.
Large part Of every museums
pride is its Chinese pottery, not
even the Greeks could equal it. AS
early as the Han dynasty (2O6 B. G.
-221 A. d. it became supreme.
One city alone had 500 kilns, and
in 1000 A. u. the imperial porcelain
works employed a million people.
But most of the kilns were de-
stroyed in the TAPPING Rebellion,
and the art of the potter rapidly
declined. For art and war are rest
less rivals, and man periodically in
terrupts creation in order to kill.
In cloisonne Approximately the
same process Of burning colors into
copper as porcelain work in the
burning of colors into clap, in the
cutting Of jade and ivory, in the
making of bronzes, the working Of
brass, the carving of lacquer-in all
of these subtle and complex arts
the Chinese have been masters.
And finally in painting they have
produced not the greatest, but the
finest, work in history.
Slowly the art evolved from the
decoration of walls, panels, and
pottery, until it grew into delicate
water-colorS on paper or silk.

@ HINESE poetry, like every

under delicate simplicity of utter

I am moved in the depths of my soul.
And now how shall we do justice
to the art of China without over
flowing from an essay into a vol
ume? Let us put aside at once its
architecture and its sculpture; in
these it is not great, for the Chinese
excel in artistry of detail rather
than in grandeur OF conception or
sublimity of execution.
Perhaps because slavery never at
tanned to any considerable scope in
China, the buildings were made OF
wood, very seldom of stone; no
structure survives in China older
than the eleventh century A. D.
Most buildings were of modest
height, and the roof was their only
glory; in many instances three roofs
were laid one over the other with
gracefully recurved caves, as if the
form had developed from the tent,
and often the. whole was covered
with brilliantly painted tiles.
Under the caves, and in the in
terror, wood delicately carved in
queer designs showed the inclination
of Chinese art to decoration rather
than construction.
Only the temples and pagodas
rose to the dignity of several stories,
and even these had a certain fragile
quality in their grace, like the BEAU
tiful Porcelain Tower of Marking,
which was destroyed in the TAPPING
Rebellion in 1854.

BIZ United Press
SHANGHAI, Nov. IA. - British
wireless dispatches from Hankow
said this afternoon that fires in the
native city had been extinguished.
These denied earlier reports that
American and British marines had
been landed to protect foreign lives
and property.
It was expected, the dispatches
said, that Marking troops would en-
ter the city peacefully tonight or to-
morrow morning.
Marines Guard Property
General Ho Chen, it was added,
had established headquarters at
Yan-Yang, across the Han River
= from Hankow, and might decide to
defend Han-Yang and W.T. Chang.
French and Japanese marines, it
was said, were guarding foreign con-
cessions against looting.
Marking troops, the dispatches
said, were searching all Yangtze
river ships for Tang Sen Chi, whose
desertion Of his post as commander
of the Radical Nationalist garrison
at Hankow percipitated the present
crisis.
Tang abandoned his post before
