To Cure
When you sleep , in which direction
do you lay your head ?
It makes much difference. Even in
sleeping there is much science.
Sleeplessness ' .or insomnia iuy ? be
greatly relieved if not actually cured
by having the body lie in the natural
relation of its own .magnetism and the
earth magnetism.
The human body is a great living
magnet , almost as ttertcately poised as
a magnetic needle in the compass box.
When the- compass needle is placed in
an east and west direction at once the
needle begins to try to get in a north
and south line with its length. This
is because the magnetic waves in pass
ing from the north pole of the world
to the south pule sweep the magnetic
needle into the line of least resist
ance , lengtlnviso , so the inasnelie
forces of the needle and the earth
may 10 in harmony.
If you are sleepless , or rest poorly ,
look after the arrangement of your
bed. Turn its head to the north. Got
your body in line with the magnetic
polar earth waves and have no mag
netic counteraction in your nervous
make-up by the earth currents running
jtcross your magnetic organism. The
proof of a medicine is its results.
Try this north and south body line
up and note results that will make
you marvel if you are nervous and
sleepless.
Hot and Cold Baths.
Cold and hot water face baths com
bined are much more effective than
either one alone , for it takes the ? hot
bath to cleanse the skin and the cold
one to invigorate anfl stimulate it.
The English are devoted to the cold
water bath for the whole body a well
as the face , and the English men as well
as the women are famous . for the
beauty of their complexion. The cold
bath makes the skin look clean , but it
docs not cleanse it The face should
be washed in hot or at least warm

water and should be rinsed in water
of the same temperature. This should
always be followed by dashing cold
water on the face , neck and throat
until the skin tingles and glows. The
only time when the face should not be
rinsed in cold water is after the even
ing bath , when the pores must be left
open to drink in th ? skin food that
has been applied. The shock of the
cold water draws the blood to the sur
face and makes the skin firm , smooth ,
and healthy looking. The glow that
this treatment brings to the cheeks
is nature's rouge and surpasses by far
any prepared rouge that one could buy.

Cleaning ; "Windows.
Chamois skin is excellent for use in
cleaning windows. Hot water would
spoil it. Wash the windows with the
wet chamois skin. Rinse the skin and
squeeze it as dry as you can. Now
wipe the windows again with the damp
skin and leave what moisture remains
on the windows to evaporate. If the
windows are washed every week the
work will be lessened , for it only will
bo necessary to wipe the windows once
.with the dampened skin. The skin
must be kept perfectly clean or the
windows will bo streaked. To clean
the skin after using it. lay flat on a
table or sink and rub with plenty of
soap and cold water. '
Good Headache Cure.
One of the very best remedies for
a sick or nervous headache was sug
gested recently by a Finnish servant
girl. She took raw potatoes without
either washing or paring and cut them
into thick slices. These were laid close
together on the forehead and temples
and kept in place by covering with a
large handkerchief folded cornerwise
and tied in the back.
In a short time the pain disap
peared. As the pieces of potato get
hot replace with cold fresh ones. They
give all the coolness of ice without the
incidental dampness , and there is not
the burning sensation ice often causes.
The potato is distinctly soothing. *

At the places where Irish lace is
sold there comes a tiny scalloped edge ,
and this can be used with good result
on a small bit of inexpensive silk mull.
The two combined make a dainty and
costly looking jabot for a turnover col
lar at a small price. The silk mul is
plain or dotted , and sells for about 25
cents a yard. If this is made into six
fine plaits , about four inches long ,
with a tab and a buttonhole at top ,
then edged with the Irish scallop , it
can be worn with one's smartest
blouses or sent as a gift to a critical
friend.
Renl Attractiveness.
A magnetic personality is often more
powerful than ability , and is often ,
very often , placed in the balance
against it. It is therefore advisable
to exert oneself to the utmost to culti
vate that wonderful charm to the high
est degree , and she who has it not is
not so much to be pitied as blamed , for
it is , more or less , within the reach of
all.
To WiwJi AVJiite Cashmere.
First of all , remove hooks and eyes
nnd any colored trimming. Then shave
up about four ounces of curd soap , put
it in a small saucepan , cover with wa
ter and allow it to melt over a gentle
heat. When quite dissolved take out
a cupful , beat remainder up to a lath
er in a gallon of hot Water. When
the heat has gone off immerse the
cashmere , squeeze it in and out , and
knead it a little. On no account must
soap be rubbed on the material. When
all the dirt has been removed squeeze
as much of the water out as you can
without wringing , and place the article - ;
cle in a bath of tepid water , to which
the cupful of dissolved soap and
a little blue have been added. Squeeze
(
as much of the water out again as you
can and hang up to dry in the open
air. When nearly dry pass through
the mangle and press on the wronj
side with a hot iron.

CHILD ATE CUTICURA.
Spread "Whole Box of It on Crackers
Not the Least Injury Resulted
Thus Proven Pure and Sweet.
A New York friend of Cuticura
writes :
'My three year old son and heir ,
after being put to bed on a trip across
theAtlantic , investigated the stateroom
and located a box of graham crackers
and a box of Cuticura Ointment. When
a search was made for the box , It was
found empty and the kid admitted
that he had eaten the contents of the
entire box spread on the crackers. It
cured him of a bad cold and I don't
know what else. "
No more conclusive evidence could
be offered that every ingredient
Cuticura Ointment is absolutely pure ,
sweet and harmless. If it may be
safely eaten by a young child , none but
the most beneficial results can be ex
pected to attend its application to even
the tenderest skin or youngest infant.

Telephone Cure for Obesity.
"Pseudo-science I" said Nikola Tesla ,
at a dinner of electricians , apropos of
an electrical cure for old age , "To a
layman , " Mr. Tesla resumed , "such a
cure sounds reasonable. But to a sci
entist it is as ridiculous as the tele
phone cure for corpulence. You have
heard of that ? No ?
"Well , Herbert Ilcavey , weighing 2S5
pounds , decided to reduce electrically.
He wrapped a coil of copper wire
round his wrist , connected it with the
telephone -apparatus , and , sure enough ,
began at once to grow lighter at the
rate of several pounds a minute.
" 'This is a grand scheme , ' chuckled
Heavey , pulling out the waistband of
his trousers , which was already a foot
too big for his waist.
"Then , suddenly , the telephone bell
rang.
' "Is that Herbert Heavey ? ' a gruff
