Showing to Paraphrase How
Touch of Powder Makes the
Feminine World Kin
One
She was going to get off the car a
few blocks further on and had a great
longing to powder her nose before she
alighted so that when she kept her
tryst with him she should not present
a shiny tip The woman sitting next
to her was of the critical sisters who
had looked her up and down from
boots to bonnet when she entered the
car The woman with the shiny nose
felt certain if she surreptitiously tried
to extract her powder rag from her
purse and dabble her tip with it the
woman at her side would glare hor
ribly But as her street drew near
she determined to ripk it anyhow and
trust to Providence that a quick dab
would accomplish the desired result
She dabbed blindly and hurriedly
But the woman saw her She could
feel the glare turned in her direction
Then to her infinite amazement the
woman whipped open her reticule and
extracted a small mirror This she
handed to her neighbor with an un
derstanding smile Better take it
my dear theres a gob of powder on
the left side near your eye The
other woman in her gratitude for
gave the glare previously administer
ed and remembered the good old ad
age one touch of powder makes the
feminine world kin
PUT END TO FROG FARMING
Audubons Scheme Might Have Been
Good but for One Small Unfore
seen Incident
There is an amusing story told in
connection with the first venture in
frog farming ever made in the United
States
Early in the last century Audubon
the great ornithologist went down the
Ohio river from Pennsylvania in a
little steamer of his own stopping at
various points to obtain specimens of
little known birds
While at Hendersonville Kentucky
which he made his home for some
time he built a mill and proposed to
raise frogs on a large scale preparing
for that purpose a pond near the
river
The frogs multiplied wonderfully
and on warm summer evenings it was
the practice of Audubon to sit under
a tree near the pond listening to the
concert given by his stock ard cal
culating the amount of money ho
should derive from the sale of the
grown frogs
But one night whn the frogs were
nearly grown they heard the booming
of bullfrogs in the Ohio Their curios
ity was aroused and hopping out of
the pond they made their way to the
river into which they plunged and
disappeared
Systematic Writing
All busy women know the value of
system and every busy woman should
systematize her daily tasks
In the matter of letter writing many
women are great procrastinatcrs
They persistently leave important let
ters unanswered until the last pos
sible moment and then have to write
a hurried note often forgetting to
take up important subjects for dis
cussion
The best way to do is to have one
day or evening set apart for weekly
letter writing One woman reserves
Tuesday morning for this purpose
and she allows none but the most
pressing duties to interfere with her
writing
While reading a letter she will jot
down any particular thing she wants
to mention in the reply on the back of
the envelope place it in the letter
rack on her desk and when Tuesday
comes has all the weeks correspond
ence ready for answering before her
If during the interim of the receipt
and answering of a letter she thinks
of any point she wished discussed
that too is noted on the envelope
With this system letter writing is a
real pleasure one that is looked for
ward to every week with keen inter
est
The Mystery
An old lady was going over the zoo
and after some time she went up to a
keeper and tapped him on the shoul
der with her umbrella Well mum
said the keeper I want to ask you
explained the old lady which of the
animals in the zoo you consider the
most remarkable The keeper
scratched his head for a while Then
Well mum he replied after
j careful consideration as you might
J say Ive come to the conclusion as
the biscuit goes to the laughing hy
ena Indeed said the old lady
in surprise and why do you consider
the laughing hyena so remarkable
Well mum answered the zoological
expert he only has a sleep once a
week He only has a meal once a
year So what hes got to laugh about
is a bloomin mystery to me
Then There Was Trouble
There was an old Scotchman in
Glasgow who was moving from one
house to another on the same
street Being of an economical
turn of mind he had moved his
bits of furniture on the wheelbarrow
himself The last thing left for him
to carry was one of those old grand
fathers clocks It was rather heavy
and awkward to handle As he tod
dled up the street to his new home
with grandfathers clock over his
shoulder he met a friendly Scot who
had been imbibing Tak ma advice

REQUIRES CHANGE AND REST
Average Woman Unable to Be Happy
Among Surroundings That Have
Become Monotonous
A certain woman was restless She
was worn out but it was not with
physical work Her husband was
wiser perhaps than most husbands
He did not send her to the top of a
mountain where she was the only in
habitant He sent her to resort where
there were many new people with
new personalities and new topics of
interest She needed contact with the
world more than she needed a cool
climate Frequently men who brush
elbows with a dozen persons each day
do not appreciate the solitude of their
wives Sometimes when a man needs
as a rert to get away from miscel
laneous lanity contact is just what
is needeu by his wife Frequently
even if she has enough feminine so
ciety sheMacks the society of men
Perhaps her husband cover really
converses or is abre to converse with
her A man hidden behind his news
paper at the breakfast table is not a
creation of the comic paper he is a
too frequent fact Too often hia wife
does not interest him because the
sphere which is imposed upon lsir is
too limited Yet vhs may have been
co confined to her own tho3hs all
day that she feels she will go crazy
if she does not have some one to tail
sincerely with 01s some other humrn
excitement Birds often divide the
care of the young and when the fe
male leaves the nest ii is sometimes
merely for change and rest There
are some who believe the French
woman is more content than the av
erage woman in other countries be-

Children on the Streets
It has been proven beyond all possi
bility of contradiction that the great
est percentage of boys and girls who
are brought before the courts for de
liquency owe their waywardness to
the education they have received on
the streets at night The school of
the streets is a bad one in which to
receive an education It is one of the
factors that must be carefully guard
ed The remedy must be keeping the
children off the streets at night or to
make the streets fit places for chil
dren It is almost impossible to do
the latter It is possible to do the
former The city streets are public
property Any one is entitled to walk
he streets provided they do not vio
late any statutory ordinance in doing
50 The city authorities have no pow
r to intervene The moral character
jf the pedestal counts for nothing
The parent of the child has authority
to keep the youngster at home and
he wise parent will exercise this au

Probably nothing in the world is as
wholesome as seeing an old man think

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local annlications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness and that is by constitutional
remedies Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the eustachian tube Whti
this- tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing and
wihen it is entirely closed deafness
is the result and unless the inflam
mation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by
