 New atomisers are designed to beautlfy your dressing table as well as to conserve your favor- ite perfume. If you have been dabbing perfume on with fingers or glass stopper for years, this is c good time to look at some Of the lovely modernlstic designs with patented shoppers that prevent evaporation. With an atomizer, you get c much more even, subtle, distribution of scent.
 Never put perfume on your clothes or your handkerchief. It's chemical content reacts perfectly when applied to the skin but not at ell satisfactorily when put on
 It's q good idea to use an atom- izer to apply cologne or toilet water, too. Spray yourself from head to foot. If you use perfume as well aS toilet water, make sure that the two odors match or at least harmonize.

 For those who dislike strong deodorants which prevent perspi- ration for days ct Q time, there Is . new mild, liquid variety that destroys odor but doesn't check the natural discharge of the uTl- cerarm pores. Use this after each bath, of course.
 You might also be interested in c soap that, according to It's makers, isn't Q soap ct all. They call 1t Q gland cleanser. It is sup. posed to contain healing as well as cleansing properties. Anyway, used in conjunction with soft complexion brush or 6 rough washcloth, it certainly does help to remove impurities from the pores of the face.

 Children sometimes are affected by inhaling powders containing zinc stearate. Babies should not be allowed to play with 0 can of powder, because they may inhale the powder and in that way set up inflammation in the lungs.
 Nowadays, most of the powder for babies comes in cans which are self-closing, 50 that the baby can- not get into his mouth and nose any considerable quantity of the powder.
 Tn any event, all drugs, medicines, and similar materials should be kept in an orderly manner, in e cup- board that is kept locked, and is sufficiently high to prevent easy access by the child.

ton of salt water, taken warm in fairly large quantities, iS about aS good aS anything else.
 Everybody knows that putting the finger into the back of the throat induces vomiting. When the child gags, 1t does not require much encouragement to cause him to Vomit.
 One advantage of large quantities of salt water is that 1t will weaken the mixture of the poison, even if the child does not vomit.
 If the child has swallowed caus. tic substances, such as acids of things that burn, olive oil in water, or egg white in water, iS c useful first aid remedy.
 Always try to find out the nature of the poison. An empty bottle in tho vicinity, or presence of some of the poison in c cup, in c utensil on the tablecloth, floor, or clothing may be Q valuable sign.
 An unusual odor on the breath may indicate the substance that has been swallowed. Burns on the lips, tongue, and cheeks are evidences of the presence of caustic poisonS.
 Taking of poison is frequently followed by shock. This must be treated like other cases of fainting, dizziness, or shock. The child should be put to bed immediately and should be kept warm and recum- bent. If the child happens to have taken Q strong narcotic drug, he should be made to vomit. Then strong black coffee may be given him.
 At the same time, 1t is necessary to do everything possible to keep the patient awake. Sometimes 1t IS necessary to shake him lightly to to have him wall: about to keep the tissues of the body active. If the child poisoned with @ narcotic Is permitted to sleep, breathing may stop.

 Children occasionally pick up drugs in the house and, not un- derStanding the danger, swallow materials which menace health and life.
 The first thing to do under these circumstances is to call the doctor at once, telling him, If possible, what you suspect is the nature of the poison the child has taken. This is important, since most poi- sons have special antidoteS, and the doctor then can bring with him the one especially suited to tho case.
 In the meantime, the child may be caused to Vomit if you are quite certain that he has swallowed pois- on. For this purpose c strong Solu-

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2s, 1es

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 29, 1856.
 On this leap year extra day of the month the aspects mingle in good and evil planetary influences, ac- cording to astrology. While the morning hours are suspicious later 1 conditions are a bit menacing.
 With the end of the week many big projects should be promising The stars encourage confidence and enterprise. Unusual business developments may be expected. Women are well directed under this configuration which encourages resourcefulness and aggressiveness. The stars stimulate initiative that may affect even love affairs Eli gible men are likely to be placed in embarrassing dilemmas. While the old legends regarding leap year are received with a smile of derision, 1886 is to be a twelve month of eX traordinary love affairs. When wars are presaged romance flour ishes.
 This is a most suspicious day for signing legal papers of any sort and especially lucky for those who ac- quire leases or partnership agree ments.
 Menacing planets appear to gov- ern many public projects for the aid of the indigent. Perils attend necessary economies in relief mat ters. Pension schemes will multiply.
 The powerful position of Jupiter is said to be consolidating the friendly relations of Great Britain and the United States The two world powers are to make dramatic history this year, it is foreseen
 San Francisco and Portland are subject to planetary influences that presage storms ot unusual charac- ter. Winds again will cause dam age in many parts of the country and there will be many flood dan gers next month
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury Of year of hard work attended with certain unusual cir cumstances. Subjects of this sign will find relatives and friends most loyal and helpful
 Children born on this day prob ally will be exceedingly quickwit- tad indaDGOdent and Gpnpra1lv very lucky. Many of these Pisces folk turn to unusual occupations.
 Ann Lee, founder of the Society of Shakers in America, was born on this day 1736. Others who have celebrated it as a birthday include Lewis Swift, astronomer, 1920; G. Rossini, composer, 1792.

 Discussing the movement that is now under way to further promote salmon, and result the fish industry of Alaska. the Ketchkan Chronicle makes the following timely and interesting comment:
