LOOSER IN MORALS. FIND PREHISTORIC BONEYARD. Excavations Reveal tha Largest Mastodon Ever Uncovered In Alaska. What is perhaps the largest mastodon ever uncovered completely in Alaska was uncovered during the last six months at a place near Circle City by Max L. Lohbrunner. The exact place of the location of the mastodon is on Alice Creek, a tributary of Mineral Creek, which flows into Woodchopper Creek. To judge of the other dimensions of the animal it must only be said that one tusk of the mastodon which is still intact is over nine feet eight inches long, and haa a circumference of eighteen inches. The jaws of the animal still have teeth four in num- br- in the jaw. Each of these teeth, which have been taken out and replaced, weigh fifty pounds apiece. Tli3 other parts of tho mastodon are in a poor state of preservation compared with the tusk, although the bones that have been collected weigh in the neighborhood of 1,000 pounds. Lohbrunner, wbo got the bones, dug them out at a depth of eighty feet below the surface of the ground. It took a great amount of care and pains on his part to see that the bones were not burned to charcoal while he was excavating and thawing the ground. Lohbrunner has moved part of the animal into storage at Circle City and will hold it there until the spring time, when it will be removed to Seattle, where it will be pnt together and eventually find its way into the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, if the Smithsonian Institution does not get it before that time. In speaking of his find Lohbrunner said": "Alice Creek, where I found this mastodon, is perhaps one of the most wonderful on earth, from the standpoint of research. It seems to be the boneyard that a lot of the prehistoric animals made for in order to die or to be killed. We have found on the creek the skeletons of mastodons, muskox, caribou, bear, and i other animals. If this creek ever goes I into a hydraulic mining proposition the world will be astounded with the many finds of bones of animals of prehistoric times." Bishop of London So Describes Married Men. "Taking them all round, married men are much looser in their morals than single men." This afifrmation by the Bishop of London, England, quite startled his hearers at. a meeting of the Council for Promoting Public Morality. Those present were pleased, however, to learn, on the Bishop's authority, that London is becoming more moral, thanks to the efforts of the police. There is still, however, much to be done. The Bishop Baid he would never rest content until the open sale in shops of things to make sin easy was suppressed. Underground London. Nearly 500 miles of sewers sre situated beneath the feet of London's population, and this includes only the large sewers, several of them so large that a number of boats could float dowrl them abreast. Some idea of the enormous cost of druining London may be gathered from the fact that the drainage works and machinery alone cost £8,000,000 sterling. The three main sewers in London run from Fleet street to Hampstead, from Blackfriars to Abbey Mills, and from Harrow to Old Ford. Connected with these are a multitude of smaller i sewers, measuring about twelve feet in diameter, which makes London one of the best-drained cities in the world. A thousand men are employed all the year round, not even excepting Sundays, in keeping London properly drained, and the stupendous total of j 1,000,000,000 tons of sewage iB chemically treated every twelve months and { taken away in sludge vessels to the North Sea. | At Barking, where the sludge is dealt with, there are fourteen sewers measuring thirty feet across; that is I t'_. say, any one of them would be ! wide enough for a small tugboat to pass down. Here the sludge, after be- 1 ing chemically treated, has to go through enormous iron cages, resembling gigantic colanders, which keep back solid objects, such as pieces of wood, old boots, and so forth, whilst not infrequently valuable articles of jewelery are found wedged between the bars of a.caeo A SPRING DANGER Many People Weaken Their Systems by Dosing with Purgative Medicines A spring medicine is a necessity. Nature demands it as an aid to enriching the blood and carrying off tha impurities that have accumulated during the winter months. Thousand.* of people, recognizing the necessity for a spring medicine, dose themselves with harsh griping purgatives. This, ls a mistake. Ask any doctor and he- will tell you that the use of purgative medicines weaken the system and cannot possibly cure disease. In the?. spring the system needs building up. —purgatives weaken. The blood should: be made rich, red and pure—purgatives cannot do this. What ls needed! Is a tonic, and the best tonic medical science has yet devised is Dr. Williams Pink Pills. Every dose of this-, medicine actually makes new, rich, blood, and this new blood strengthens; every organ and every part of the- body. That Is why these Pills banish pimples and unsightly skin eruptions-. That Is why they cure headaches,, backaches, rheumatism, neuralgia andl a host of other troubles that come- from poor watery blood. That is why the men and women who use Dr. Williams Pink Pills eat well and sleep- well and feel active and strong. Mis* Mabel Synnott, Lisle, Ont., says: "1. was pale and weak and suffered greatly from headaches, and I found! nothing to help me until I began taking Dr. Williams Pink Pills. These- have completely restored my health and I bless the day I began taking them." But be sure you get the genuine Pills with the full name "Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People" ore the wrapper around each box — all' other so-called pink pills are fraudulent Imitations.

COULD NOT SPEAK ABOVE A WHISPER. Cold In the Chest Seemed to be Unmovable But Cure was Soon Ef footed by Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine It Is waste of time to use ordinary cough mixtures for serious colds on the chest, and time Is of infinite value when the lungs are In danger. The risk is too great, especially when you wait to think that Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine Is for sale in nearly every store that keeps medicines at all. This letter gives you some Idea of the effectiveness of this great medicine. * Mrs. A. Barnum, Ingersoll, Ont., writes:—"My husband had a very severe cold on his chest and got so "bad he could not speak above a whisper. The cough medicines he tried .•seemed to have no effect and reading about Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine I sent for a bottle. In two days he was cured and Is very grateful for such a medicine. He says we will never be without this medi- •cine In the house." The very name of Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine is sufficient to explain the simple and yet powerful and well-known ingredients of which this great medicine is composed. While linseed sheathes the mouth, tongue and throat, with a protective cnating to prevent injury from hard coughing, turpentine disinfects and stimulates the ulcerated parts of the bronchial tubes and lungs and Is almost specific for bronchitis. Other Ingredients which along with these go to make up Dr. Chase's Syrup of Linseed and Turpentine, soothe the nerves, loosen the cough, aid expectoration, and by thorough action on the whole system completely cure coughs and colds, bronchitis, asthma, whooping cough and sore throat.

I Previous to Mr. Record going into the j manufacture of stoves, those used In Canada were almost wholly of American j manufacture. The character of the work]j turned out by the Record Foundry *.' Machine Co., at once gave their stoves a standing, and as a result a very large | business soon grew up, largely owing to j Mr. Record's untiring Industry and perseverance against many obstacles. Although Mr. Record retired from active | business as far back as 1S79, the solid i basia on which he had established the industry, has resulted in its growth from * ' aturdy pioneer into on* of the largest stove I manufacturing plants on the northern half of the American continent.

' THE ADVOCATE. VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA. AN EARLY CALL SMark Twain's Story About His Ab- sentminded "Brother. "One bitter December night Orion ".Murk Twaln't) brother) sat up rending uutil 3 o'clock In the morning nnd theu, without looking nt n clock, sullied forth •to call on u young lady. He hammered ■_nd hammered at the door: couldn't get nny response; didn't understand It. Anybody else would have regarded •that ns nn indicntion of some kind or •other nnd would have drawn Infer- ences nnd gane home, but Orion didn t draw Inferences. He merely hnnimet-.'d jind hammered, and finally the fatuer *or the girl appeared at the door In a •■dressing gown. He had a candle In 'tils hand, and tbe dressing gown was all the clothing he had on, except an expression of welcome, which was so thick and so large that lt extended all "down his front to his Instep and nearly •obliterated the dressing gown. Bnt •Orion didn't notice that this was an -unpleasant expression. He merely "walked In. The old gentleman took "iiInTl-to the parlor, set the cndle on " a tABle and stood. Orion made the usual remarks about the weather nnd sat down—sat down and talked and -talked and went on talking, that old •man looking nt him vindictively and -waiting for his chance, waiting treacherously and malignantly for his chance.

VANCOUVER. BRITISH COLUMBIA, '.-A* ■"-*•* { The Practical Application of the Stenographer's Knowledge HOW TO ACHIEVE THE GREATEST RESULTS IN THIS BRANCH OF WOMAN'S INDUSTRY By Cynthia Westerner Alden Copyright, 180.. by A. S. Barnes & Co. NOW a word as to the duterent source- of employment when you have learned your profession. Business Arms employ perhaps four-fifths of all who are employed. The age of the typewriter has come upon us almost Btealtnlly, so that lt is bad form to send out letters In somebody's doubtful handwriting. The mun or the Arm that does lt Is set down at once by its correspondent as either very eccentric or very hard-up. No matter which may be the supposition, It ls one that repels trade. Therefore, ln a general way, It may be Nuiil tlmt lf you know of any business house that has no typewriter at work for It, there Is a chance that you may be afforded a job there, lf you can make terms with the management. I need not dwell on the necessity of accuracy In such work. Remember that every letter is a contract lf It quotes prices or promises anything; that your employer can be held ln a court of law to the performance of what your typewriter makes him promise to perform. If he dictates to you, "our price for such and such silk is 75 cents a yard," and you write out the letter "$.35," and he signs lt without reading too carefully, the receiver may answer, "Ship me 1000 yards of such and such a silk at quoted price," the silk may be shipped, and no court will compel the buyer to pay more than was asked. The loss will be $400 from that one error. It might be ten times as much If the figures were multiplied. And there are recorded cases where $4000 or $6000 has been the penalty for Just as simple a slip. 1 know the reuder will pardon me for going Into the concrete ln this way. It Is so much easier to grasp than abstrac- tlo.is. It is meant only to impress you, wnen you have once got u business place, with the idea that on your .accuracy great Interests may hinge. There are one or two other suggestions which I want to make about this sort of a place as stenographer and typewriter. General Usefulness The work of taking and writing out letters will not use up all your time. You will probably be asked to do things about the office, to assist ln other ways between times. A man would certainly have even moro of such demands if he wero In your place. Remember that. And don't do what Is asked of you aa If It were a favor, as If you were being Imposed upon. Do lt always as a matter of course. The more you know about the way that business Is run the more likely you will be to keep your job and have your wages increased. There ls no Instance that I know of where any woman in your place has ever got more than $15, except as a reward for this sort of Interest in the employer's business. There's a deep lesson ln that statement of fact. Read lt over again. It will bear repeating. Clergymen, lecturers, authors and newspaper editors have use for stenog raphers. The man who has prepared the thought of a sermon finds a great relief ln being able to dictate the verbal crystallization of that thought to some one else, and having it come back to him in cold, legible typewritten form. He will demand a lot of patience from the stenographer. He will order a sentence stricken out; he will partially reconstruct another; he will change an adjectiye every now and then, and, worst of all, he is likely to make so many changes when lie sees what he has sulil, that the matter has to be all rewritten. Never mind. That ls what you are there for. He must use your services In his own way. You will find the same annoyances In working for an author or lecturer. In all three phases of the occupation you will also find your hours subject to the whim or mood of the employer. There will be less of this In what an editor will ask of you. General Information Is of great assistance here, and a knowledge of reference books, where you can find what you never knew, or what has slipped your memory, Is Invaluable. You write the sound, but your copy must contain only words of the English language, and names or mythological references often compel the oldest hand to have recourse to the cyclopedia. Law Stenography. Another and even larger field ls law stenography. This does not call for quits as much genera! information as the branches just considered, but lt Is like business stenography In insisting on accuracy, and for the 'same reason, that errors are costly. Deeds, wills, papers in summons and complaint, and important contracts are copied in law offices. Thousands of dollars may depend on correctness, even ln punctuation. The strain ls great on any one who realizes this, and one who doesn't ls worthless. But arguments for the court, or pleas for Jury, are often to be dictated, and tneir scope covers a wide range of human Information, lt ls not wise to interrupt the dictator. You must depend on yourself, even where the language used ls technical and you feel that ycu are walking amid pitfalls. The reward Is that you get good wages sooner than almost anywhere else, nnd that you can quickly make yourself nearly Indispensable, for there are not many good law stenographers in the business. When Fitted. Court stenography Is a different thing. I know of no case where this is done in a court of record by a woman. The positions are public ones, their salaries are fixed by statute, and they ere filled, more or less, by political Influence. When you think yourself fairly fitted to do ordinary work, thati is, when you have attained a real speed of 120 words a minute, can write out notes correctly, and can manipulate the keys-of a typewriting machine readily and effectively, you will hunt for a place. If you are ln a large clty.you will do well to advertise, understating rather than overstating your qualiflcatlOnB. You should also answer a«vertlsements, never getting; discouraged at a failure. You will locate somewhere, lf you have patience. But even In a village there are possibilities. Suppose there are ten or _ dozen small merchants ln town, ami not one of them has ever sent out typewritten letters. Each one would like to, If he could afford to employ a stenographer. You may be able by dividing your time, to handle the small correspondence of half a dozen of these,, to. make lt inexpensive for each, and t_. give every one th" advantage of having his letters legible and businesslike. In the same way, the local clergymcni. might be available on a combinations basis. In concluding this instalment let men recapitulate some of the Inexorable demands of tlie profession as mentiont—h above. First—Good spelling. Second—Knowledge of English grammar. Third—A speed of 120 words a minute-, with readable notes'. Fourth—Practical familiarity with the> typewrlter. Fifth — Fairly good general Information. Sixth—Conscience that makes ai. error- almost a crime. Seventh—Personal dignity ln your relations with men or women as employers! or fellow-workers. If you have all these, you will succeed In making a good living at the. trying occupation of a stenographer Ian- typewriter. DETECTING IMITATIONS - HINTS FOR THE AMATEUR THE detecting of Imitations ln various goods is an art that would stand any woman in good stead— or a man, for that matter. In fact, merely as u matter of general Information, it la ii valuable asset whenever one has not the integrity of some established house or person to depend upon for Judgment. Speaking flrst of the diamond, the expert's eye, without applying any tests, will tell at once the genuineness of a Btone. A real diamond Is opaque; you cannot see through it at all. Whereas the Imitation is largely transparent, or, at the best, translucent. Moreover, the real diamond Is an absolutely perfect reflector; that Is, whatever the light may be that lt Is In. lt reflects truthfully, and that with perfect brilliancy. So thai daylight Is the best ln which to test the stone, for even ln that pure, searching light, the diamond reflects the white, clear rays. An imitation, under such circumstances, has what the expert calls a "dead centre"; there is no brilliancy nor lire; lt ls dead. It may be remembered that Imitation stones are always exhibited In a room br'lllantly Illuminated with aillflclal light, to lend all brilliancy possirle. In honest daylight the diamond can bear the scrutiny of an eye; though, of course, It ls specially brilliant when under a number of light sources, such as the myriad lights of a theatre or the dancing rays cast from nbove by the leaves of trees. One crude test of a diamond ls the file. It makes no Impression whatever upon the real stone. Many clever "fakes" will demonstrate ostentatiously upon an Imitation, seeking to prove by tne file test that It is the real article. They heat the lilt, thus taking Ihe tempering out of the steel, so thai lt cannot affect the Imitation, A perfectly cut diamond has fifty- eight faces, or facets* (the planes), which number Is the best for brilliancy. Also, two-thirds of the stone's height should be under tlie girdle (the circular edge) or belt, and one-lhlrd above. Many people experience an uncomfortable surprise when a stone breaks or chips. This casts no reflection whatever upon its genuineness. It Is only an unfortunate circumstance. The diamond has a grain, or certain weak spot, which, with perhaps the slightest touch and at the most unexpected moment, will part It or chip lt, when, under ordinary circumstances, It could be pounded all day with a steel hammer and come out unharmed. The best test for a sapphire ls to hold It up to the light, with the lower point toward the eye. If lt Is an imitation, a red circle appears around the girdle. In a ruby the same test may be applied, with the opposite result; a blue circle appears. If It Is an imitation. In testing an emerald, the imitation presents a brownish red circle. The file test also may be used here. One means, which, however, is not tellable in every case, is to seek an Imperfection in an emerald. Nearly all the real stones have them; It is next to Impossible to obtain an absolutely perfect emerald. The French imitations are specially good, for they are careful to have the Imperfections. So, should you find a perfect stone, lt is either a cheap imitation or a gem of almost priceless value. Rather an amusing situation! Perhaps the most Interesting Jewels are the so-called limestones—the opal, the lurquoiBe, for example, lt may be lomembtred that the opal Is softer and more brilliant In damp, warm weather. This is due to the Umeltkc qualities of Its elements; It absorbs moisture and Is affected by heat, which conditions add noticeably to Its brilliance. It ls soft and brittle, and acts very like a plant; when kept dry and cold. Its llf._ seems to droop and wither, .and Its flre grows dim; and yet it responds Instantly to warmth and moisture, glowing with Indescribable beams. The turquoise acts the same way, though ln its "live" moments, lt Is a rich, pure blue. Clever Mexican Trick An Interesting example of this trait of the opal ls seen among the Mexicans. On the border of the country the natives In possession of stones cluster about the points where travelers enter and besiege them to buy the gems. They claim to have smuggled Ihem, and so soil them cheaply. However, they are not above ^ resorting to a sly trick to raise the price on the soot. One has button holed a traveler, or, perhaps, Is entertaining a party with his soft, gllb- tongued persuasions. He whisks a jewel from his mouth, and. presumably to remove the moisture, vigorously rubs it on his coat for a few seconds. There you a;e—moisture ond heat (by the rubbing), and before the Interested traveler is a previews stone, aglow with beautiful flre und soft, myriad-colored lights. If he Is a sensible man, he buys and chuckles about his bargain. However, a little later on he is not a little puzzled at the way that opal acts. Metals and Shells Coming now to precious metals, gold, of course, < innot be Imitated, except In platings and -lomposlllons of brass. The unfailing test is the use of muriatic or nitric acid. In Xhe first place, "virgin" gold, as it is taken from tho earth, is rated as "24 karat"—absolutely pure. The ancte.it artists of India us.- about a 22-kai-at w Id. However, this is considered I / « Western world too soft for piacil.. • /ryasea, and the virgin gold Is alloyi'« 1 he percentage of the alloy (copp' for red gold, sliver for yellow) mak ,- 'the karat—18-karat, 14-karat, 10- ka'.rand so on. United States money, by file way, Is about 20-karat. This al- I %/ gives firmness and strength to tho gold without robbing lt of its beautiful color. When acid ls applied to 24-karat gold (virgin gold) it has ab&o.utely no etrect upon it. So, according to the amount of alloy will the acid create a disturbance. In ihe presence of much alloy the acid makes a brown stain, and on down, proportionately, in deepening shades to red. When applied to brass, there Is a green stain, with bubbles—a sort of effervescence. The only test for "gold- filled" articles Is to cut them ln half, or by weighing them. Golii-flllcd means two sheets of gold, with a layer of composition between, usually of copper and silver. This method is popular for watohcases and pins. To the Inexperienced, tortoise shell may seem to baffle all efforts to "tell which is which." But lt Is not so. Of course, the expert can tell almost instantly; but the amateur, with care and strict attention, can soon detect an Imi tation. Appearance, touch nnd smell are the clues. The practical observer will notice as lie looks at the shell from each side that the brown and yellow markings go through sharply, with no tapering. The mottled effect is copied with chemicals applied to the horn, while heated rollers and pressure send pigments through celluloid, but in neither vase does art equal in delieate beauty the work of nature in producing the shells. There Is a clean, pleasant feeling Jo shell that is not found in the imitations. The horn and bone combs are likely to have a clammy feeling to the touch or a suggestion ol grease. This feature is scmetlmes noticeable to the eye." There is a popular method of using tho smell test. Rub the shell vigorously un a piece of cloth or the hand till warm; If it Is imitation, it will smell ot camphor. The heat brings out the odor. "Tortoise shell does not yield io heat below the boiling point. Hold a comb, and lf the heat of your hand so affctts the teeth thet you con bend them easily to other shapes, you have celluloid or some other materia). Shell Is almost as elastic aB a Dair.ascan blade." Another point to note is that the teeth of Imitation combs are always more or less curved, while the real shell teeth are straight, yet comfortable and firm in ihc hair. The chisels In the machine that cuts out the teeth are set at an angle so that they make wedge-shaped incisions, the sharp ends of the teeth in one CO—ib coming from the roots of adjacent teeth. In another comb, thus avoiding waste. A word here about the care of real shell combs minht be timely. There is more or less electricity and oil in the hair; so lHic combs should be wiped carefully at night after being removed from the hair. Use a soft, dry rag, and the combs will retain their inimitable clean, polished appearance. .It la a simple matter to tell real ivory. The camphor test may be applied here, too, but the facts that ivory has a perceptible grain, ls a rich, pure cream color, is heavier than any imitation, ".lake enough information to protect a buyer In search of the real article. Furs form another commodity that ls widely Imitated. Summing the matter up, they are either very excellently Imitated or very badly; ln the latter case no novice needs any "tips." And the. good imitations are at the mercy of only the expert's eye; it is difficult to. mention any special point. But it is the in-between imitations that may be spoken of. Coney is, a fairly good Imitation of ermine; but the hair, longer, larks, the fine, silky qualities, and easily "roughs." Black tips are sewed on to- imitate the tails. Electric seal, the imitation of sealskin, has a longer, blacker, coarser hair tban the real skin, thought sometimes the real skin is dyed black. The imitation mole skin is dyed muslt rat. But lt has not the soft, silvery- shades of the real skin, and ls less silky- There are Imitations galore of everything; but, perhaps, these few suggestions in regard to the most valuable of life's commodities will help when one- goes shopping about the world- Recipes Originated by Marion Harland v A "Starter" for Bread. {j^TpELL 'Young Housekeeper of I 19' to get a cake of yeast -1 foam and dissolve lt tn half a. cup of warm water.

Y.)t i ADVICE TO CORRESPONDENTS BY MRS. HENRY SYMES To Clear the Complexion MARGUERITE—I cannot express an opinion upon the tablets you mention, since I know nothing of them, for or against. I advise you to try the remedy as published in this department, since it has benefited so many of my correspondents. Take the formula to a thoroughly reliable druggist, and he will prepare It for you. Try this method of clearing your complexion: Rub the face over, Just before washing It, with two teaspoonfuls of flowers of sulphur mixed in half a pint of new milk. This mixture should stand at least fifteen minutes before using. I have several recipes to lighten hair, but the one you quote Is as good as any. If you are troubled with dandruff, try the remedy suggested to "Mrs. C. B. C." Stubborn Freckles Kindly «ive me a prescription for freckles of very lonir standing. They are half way up my arms and all over my face. Whitening Paste for Freckles and Brown Spots. Salicylic acid, do (rains; bay rum. 4 oun''—. Applv niirht and morning with a soft cloth or sponge. This lotion soon produces a Blight roughness of the skin, which should be subdued by the use of glycerine or starch. To Increase Height Will you kindly answer these questions? 1 am 18 years old and am about four feet six Inches tall. How am I to grow just a little more? What exercise could I do that would help me to grow taller? How can 1 reduce my hlpB and legs, as I have very large Dones? what kind of cream should I use for my face? It ls very rough and has ' «mall pits In lt V. P. I have heard of methods to Increase one's height, but I am not at all familiar with them. In such a case, I can only advise you to go to a specialist. I give you below some exercises to reduce hips and legs. To Reduce the Hips. Place hands on the,hips, shoulders well back. The leg ls nil. nl with knee fixed. Then, after a high, quick side kick, bring i the foot back again to the floor. This ls to be repeated several times. To reduce the legs, I would suggest that you walk as little as possible (taking other exercises, however), and bathe your legs frequently with -CltsS-"- alcohol or warm vinegar. j.v^ Here ls the skin food you ask for: Skin Food. White wax, 1 ounce: spermaceti, 1 ounce; lanolin, _ ounces: cocoanut oil. 2 ounces; orange-flower water, 2 ounces: oil of sweet almonds. 4 ounces: tincture of benzoin, 30 drops. Melt the first Ave ingredients together. Take off the flre and beat until nearly cold, adding, little by little, tho benzoin and lastly orange-flower water. Flabby Skin I am 40 years of age; am I too old for vaucalre treatment? Would you kindly advise me what to uee to reatore face and neck to good condition, and how to use It? I have been much atouter, but owing to trouble, now removed, lost twenty-flve pounds, although my general health Ib good. My face and neck are very Habby, and the skin wrinkles with the movements of the head; my throat, too, is in a similar condition. If you oeuld tell me of gome harmless method to restore my skin to Ita former firmness, I would be very grateful Indeed, and would faithfully adhei-e to any advice you might give. Mrs. E. s. 1.. I am sure the Vaucalre treatment would hnve only benefit for you. You need not be afraid to try it. As to your skin and general appearance, try these general rules: To Gain Flesh Generally. Absolute freedom from care and anxiety. At least ten hours' sleep out of every twenty-four. In addition to thiB, naps during the day if possible. This sleep must always be natural. Nothing is so bad for the appearance and general health as sleep Induced by anodynes or narcotics in any form. The diet should be liberal and should consist largely of food containing starch and sugar; potatoes, fresh, sweet butter, milk, cream, fruits cooked and served with sugar, all vegetables containing starch and sugar, such as corn, sweet potatoes beans, peas, foods of the macaroni and spaghetti kinds, fish and oysters, ice cream, deaserts without pastry; plenty of outdoor life and a moderate amount of exercise. Bleep in a well-ventilated room. I do not believe any one can gain flesh if there Is an internal disease; certainly not if there is ony tendency to dyspepsia or liver trouble. Where the patient is plump in one part of the body and falls in another a gymnastic course is advised. There Is nothing better than bicycling, unless It may be a regular gymnastic course. In order to pursue the latter properly the patient Ib advised to go to a first-class gymnasium, submit to an examination and take the exercises prescribed by the attendant physician. The.se gymnasiums, at moderate prices, may be found In a town of any size in the country. Where the development Ib meagre in the upper part of the body, swimming Is also an excellent exercise. Walking is always wholesome. The patient who wishes to ■gain flesh can never do so if she worries, is harassed or permits her nerves to get the better of her. Dashing very cold water on the face and neck several times daily, and then rubbing briskly, does much to make the skin Arm. Massage your face and neck with this skin food: Cream of Sweet Oranges. (A Skin Food.) Two ounces sweet oil of almonds. Two ounces orange-flower water. Two drams white wax. One dram oil of sweet orange. Two drams spermaceti. Half fill a saucepan with boiling water. Stand a Jam jar in this. Shred the wax and spermaceti into the jar. Let it dissolve. Heat almond oil and add to the wax. Heat orange-flower water; add it half a .tea- Bpoonful at a time, stirring the mixture quickly. Lift the Jar out of the Baucepan. Beat mixture with the whisk. Heat and add oil of sweet orange. Whisk cream until lt ls cold. Put ln pots and cover with parchment. To Relieve a Red Nose Tou had a recipe in the paper about six months ago for something to whiten the nose. I have been bothered with a red nose for some time, otherwise I am In perfect health. J. 8. 8. A red nose ls usually caused by indigestion. You should be exceedingly careful as to what you eat, and how you eat it. FreBh, tender meats are good; fresh fish, also, and an abun- dunce of vegetables and fruit. Fried foods, highly seasoned dishes and sweets are all miBchlef matters. Avoid them. Drink plenty of pure, cool—not cold—water. Eight glasses per day is the least amount required. Drink the water between meals, not with them. Take a full bath from head to heels each twenty-four hours. Get plenty of fresh air and exercise, and sleep in a well-ventilated room. ■ You might also apply local treatment to your nose. Try massaging vigorously along the leading nerve of the nose at each side. Use the tip of the finger, start at the bottom and rub up the nose on each side, and then under the eyebrows. Following the nerve in this way is sure to relieve congested circulation, which Is often the secret of that unpleasant redness which comes to the nose, If it is extremely red, massage the temples and cheeks, also, using a brisk, vigorous movement. When treating a red nose, be careful not to touch It with water. Instead, bathe lt night and morning with cream. / To Reduce the Bust Having heard of your good ndvice to others. I thourtu I would aafc vou to pleas e glve me a recipe of something that will reduce the bust which will be harmless. A. M. 1_ Bathe the bust every day with clear alcohol or warm vinegar. Applications of cold water also help to make lt firm. Use the following pomade: Pomade to Reduce the Bust. Iodide of potassium, 3 grams; vast-line, 60 gramB; lanolin, 50 grams; tincture of benzoin, 20 drone. Make into a pomade and rub all over the fat parts twice a day. b Unknown Formula ELLA.—I know nothing of this formula you speak of, so cannot recommend lt to you. However, I can assure you of the efficacy and safety of the remedy made from the formula so frequently published in this department. The Shape of Her Nose I would like to know if there is any way of changing a nug nose to a straight, or, at least, to any other kind lhat does not turn up. I am In my teens, and so think thnt there is a chanco of changing the shape of my nose while It Is still mil. 1 none y,,u can give nie Bome encouragement, nt leuet. 8UB8CRIBBR. Much can be done wilh tlie shape of the nose by personal effort, particularly ln youth. There are movements and manipulations by which the shnpe of the nose can be changed gradually. It is best, however, to get the advice of a specialist about this matter, for it would not be well to adopt treatment that wa» not exactly right. Hair Grows Low on Neck Your kindness to a fellow-sufferer gives me hope that vou may be able to help me. My hair had grown down un my neck so far on either side In tho hack that a collar was annoying, so I used a ilepllutorv, ar.d now It is so had I am ash—ni-d to go out anywhere. Have used ammonia and peroxide for six months without any succe*s, so will you Dlea/m toll me of something else, aa I am almost In despair? Mrs. C. If the methods you speak of have so far been unsuccessful, I advise you to consult a specialist at once. The Vaucalre Formula Will you kindly publish the prescription ot Dr. Vaucalre's remedy to enlarge the bust; also directions how to use it? J. C. Dr. Vaucaire'e "Remedy for the Bust. Liquid extract of galega (goatsrue), 10 grains; lacto phosphate of lime, io gramB; tincture of fennel, 10 grains: simple syrup, -no grams. The dose la two soupspoonfuli with water before each meal. Kidneys a la Creole. I (A West Indian recipe.) Wash and skin lamb kidneys, drjr ihem and leave on ice.

Heat to a bubble- a great spoonful of butier In a frying pan, add the minced vegetables and_ cook for five minutes after the contents, begin to boll anew. Then add a tart apple cut Into dice, season with salt, paprika, and a tablespoonful (scant) of curry powder. Stir Into a cupful of good stock a tablespoonful of brownedt flour and cook together, stirring to prevent lumping until the stock thickens.. If you have no stock, use hot water.. When you have done this, cut the kidneys into small pieces, fry for three. minutes In hot butter, and add to tha heated vegetables. Boll up once, add the thickened stock and simmer all together five minutes before Berving. »., Mrs Rundle. (Alexandria, Virginia.)
