Some wellmeaning persons have sworn by kerosene, and many easily persuaded women have tried it, only to lind themselves a nuisance to the family while the "cure" was in process, and in the end obliged to abandon its use from the verv disagreeable after-effects of the treatment. All authorities on the subject of hair doctoring agree that th natural oil of the hair, judiciously augmented by an artificially applied oil. will be of material benefit i" producing luxuriant, glossy tresses and prevent the long ends from splitting and he hair from falling out, for the reason that the roots are properly nourished. Another reason why some good oil should be carefully applied to the roots of the hair is the necessity of keeping the scalp loose from the head, and by this means permitting the natural oil of the hair to nourish it as nature intended it. should. It has been found that the best, purest olive oil. purchased .it some reliable grocery or Italian warehouse, or In small quantities from the drug store, has all tlie medical qualities of kerosene, without any of Its disagreeable aftereffects.

Your friend does not comprehend, treats it lightly, and goes away onto fome topic far removed. You have an instant sense of betrayal, and a sort of resentment toward the friend whom for the moment you think has failed yen. It is you who are to blame for expecting more of your friend than she was capable of giving. Sallle Joy White in October Woman'3 Home Comi:-4.cIon. Taite In Farnlnlilnjr.

that an error in their choice or combination is more obtrusive than a similar error in any other room. The walls of a room that is to be occupied constantly should be hung with plain paper or with that having an all-over interlocked pattern in neutral tints. Insincerity is as surely expressed In a piece of furniture as in one's speech. The artistic and restful effect of almost any room Is heightened by the use of home-made fancy articles, provided their coloring tones In or contrasts pleasingly with the dominant one of the room, and they are few in number. Small Oriental rugs make the most effective covering possible for floor cushions.

wasn't ornament; the latter because the new kind are easier to make and easier to keep unrumpled and fresh. Velvet is used frequently for the pillow of the day, and there are many made of plush, satin, canvas and linen. The poster girl often appears on the latter two kinds, and very attractive she is, too, done in bright colors in her swirling poses. The figured velvets and satins used show conventionalized and tartan designs. Almost all of the cushions are finished with a heavy silk cotd. but have no other ornamentation. Just as many will be piled in eosey corners and on couches this winter as cvei before and a redu tion of trimming on them does not necessarily mean a diminution of expense, I assure you. so a go nlly sum must be set aside by the housewife for these very essential furnishings.

Notwithstanding the fact that the Filipino insurgents have lost great quantities of supplies and that over 1.000 men have either surrendered or been captured during the retreat northward of the last few weeks, there is no good reason for the extremely optimistic view of the situation which some of the American officers hold. There are now 15,000 American troops in the Philippines, but the men in the field have become so scattered by their rapid movements that they now seem like a mere handful.

CAT CAUSED A Woman to Faint Iiecane She Thought It Was a Ilurglar. Philadelphia Inquirer: "That was a funny incident that happened the other night." said one of Philadelphia's "finest," "that burglar cat, I mean the cat being mistaken for a burglar. But 1 remember a much more serious matter than that resulting from the appearance of a eat at a window of the house of a friend of mine living in Brooklyn. One evening in the winter of 1S92 my friend's wife was sitting in the back parlor on the ground floor waiting for her husband to come home to tea. It was quite dusk, but she had not lighted the lamp and was doing a little dreaming. I suppose. Something happened, and when my friend let himself in with his latch-key he found his wife on the floor in a dead faint. He did all he knew to bring her back to consciousness. unsuccessfully, and finally had to leave her and run out for a doctor, who. fortunately, lived only a couple of doors away. After a lot of trouble the doctor resuscitated her. but she immediately became hysterical and went oil again. In her hysterics she kept calling out that there was a nan trying to get in at the wiru'rAv. Tin next day she described him as a man with a rough fur cap and a beard and striped coat: that's all she ,(,,! tpi. and as it was so dark. He tried to break the window, but whin she shrioke.i and fell in a faint be must have b.-en frightened and e.H-a 1 '.!. (f course, the story was pooh-poohed, but the lady insisted sho was right. Two days later my friend went Ik. nie and found her a.srain unconscious. This time sb.e was so seriously frightened that it was several days bfor she was able to attend to her house duties, and her mother came to stay with her. Another two days passed. There had ben no further attempt on the part of any man to break in. The rnotlu r had persuaded her daughter to take a nap, saying she would pupare tea. and she went down stairs to do so. It was a little later than usual, and my friend was alreaily due home. In fact, he had the key in the keyhole, when his ears were saluted by a series of piercing shrieks. He rushed into the house and found his mother-in-law in a faint and his wife gibbering like an idiot and pointing at the window, on the sill outside of which sat a huge Angora cat with one paw up at the pane; It was nearly two years before his wife reeover ! her reason."

METHODS OF ENAMELING. Those In I'se at the. Manufactories nt I.lmoge. The Rev. S. llaring-C.ould. in the Magazine f Art. refers to the different methods of enameling: "The principle is the sann in ihampleve as in clolsson; in both cases the enamel is let Into sockets, the difference being that in tb1 latter case the sockets are fashioned abov the surface of the plate, in tue former they are big out of It. When enamel had to be set like preious stones, it could be treated only In th fashion of Jewi It y, as occasional ornament, but when It could be run Into any hollow, then It was used pro fusily in adorning very srt of vessel and piece of metal furniture, wherever Ihe graving tool could be om ployed. It formed fringes, Ixuders, bell, to the drapTy of metal statue; It was employed armorlally; It enriched cio.iem and tombs, chalices and shrines alike. A line example 1mm the Hotel de Clutiy will show how mit h moi' flexible enamel had become or. rather, how much more easn and freedom wnv now experienced In Its manipulation. The example Is of ppT gilt, a foot In height. It reprehcnts the Eternal Father In repousse, In a somewhat an hale ht.lc. 'I he right hand I rnlsi'd In benediction, the left Jmlds tb gospels. Of Ihe figure only the ejes are enamel, but the whole surface of the background Is covered with enamel. As some of the vitreous matter has fallen out in places, especially In the circle above the nimbus and In a portion of the nimbus, the method of procedure Is very clearly Illustrated by this line specimen. It also shows a very usual kind of ornamentation to be seen, one that Is reproduced repeatedly, and consists of rosettes or quatrefolls of various colors. In these ehampleve enamels both transparent and opaque colors were employed, but an opportunity for development In the uo of transparent enamels at once presented Itself." Not No Fresh as the First Kdltor. "What should a lady do when sä wants to sneeze In church?" was tho query recently addressed to tho editor of a local paper. He was very busy and excited; the printers were waiting for copy, and tüo proprietor had threatened to supersede him if he dil not bounce the circulation up a thousand a week. In his anxiety he missed the point of the inquiry, and answered it thus: "It lepends upon why the lady wants to sneeze in church. If the young lady is pretty, and wants to attract the attention of some eligible young man. the sneeze should be gentle and distinctive; almost anything will produce the irritation of the facial organ necessary to effect the purpose. Rut if the lady is old, occupies her own pew and wishes to show off her new bonnet, then r. violent sneeze or a succession of sneezes is necessary, ami we should advise upsetting an ounce or two of cayenne pepper in tho pew." There is a fresh editor on that Journal now. Stray Stories. Dell ate tJIrl. From the Minneapolis (Kan.) Messenger: A young man spent Sunday with his b'st girl over on Pipe Creek somewhere and noticed she did not eat much for dinner or supper. He asked her with a kind smile if she was sick, and she replied by saying she seldom ate much at any time. On Monday morning he met the girl's little brother going to school and asked him how his sister was.' The little boy told him that "she was just awful sick, that mama told her that she had eaten too much pumpkin pie, cold cabbage and fat bacon last night after you went home." The young man asked If a doctor had been called. The boy said, "No; Sla Is afraid to send for Dr. Aplln for fear he would find out what made her so sick and tell It to her friends."

A WEEK IX INDIANA.

RECORD OF HAPPENINGS FOR SEVEN DAYS. Ihe Kmployment of r.irls Tnhllc Senti ment Compels Abandon inent The Hoy Problem, However, Continues to Perplex Glass Manufacturers. Because of the overwhelming popular sentiment against it. the movement toward the general employment of girls to do the work of boys in the glass factories at Muncie has suddenly stopped. The greatest difficulty that the glass manufacturers have to contend with is the scarcity of boy help, and to remedy this the introduction of girls began. One firm in this city, so badly crippled on account of small help that it was compelled to employ men to do boys' work, said recently that it was able to get all the girls needed, but that public sentiment against tho employment of girls to do carry-in work is so great that the tiling cannot be risked. In order to relievo the demand for boys, several Muncie firms started ? gen's over Indiana on the seaich of available small help. One firm even agreed to pay for the transportation cf several entiro families in order to g t the boys to work in the factory, but little e.e ;t failure has ben met. Wages for small hdp are now alnnvt double what they were two years as", bu. the .e;-. reity of boys continues to increase. Luckless agents in quct of boys report to the offices e ry we-'k thai, tlie -ombination of the truancy law and the hw against the employment of ehihlren in factories has can-ed this state of affairs. The question where to get small help is a more serious one even than the fuel question. Fuel is scarce, if at all, only in winter, while boys are scarce the year round. It is said there is now but. on glass factory in the United States employing girls to do boy work. This one is located at Holla ire, Ohio. Though a large number of Indiana concerns intended to give employment to women and girls, they were prevailed upon to desist before the actual employment began. Head Met ween tho Thills. William Mon is sold a herd of cattle to butchers at (Jarrett last week, receiving in cash ?1X. P.eforo starting for home he spent. $10 in liquor. Ho was found near his home late that night, having pitched forward from his buggy seat, with his had hanging between the thills and the wheel. Tlie neighbors stopped his horse and discovered that he was dead, his neck having been broken. It Is not known how long tho body had been hanging In that position, although tho horse had been driven four miles. Miller leaves a wife and thiee children. Transferred lo 1'rlneeton. Dr. A.

Cohen Is wanted In nearly 100 cltb's, Chicago police say. While Harvey Daugherty and Marley Cooper of Odon were playfully scuffling, Cooper struck Daugherty on the left breast. The latter dropped as if shot, and It was some time before he recovered consciousness. He continues physically very weak. While a wagon was running along the streets of Decatur it exploded a revolver cartridge on the pavement. The bullet passed through a plate-glass front and struck Sim Haines, a clerk, on the head, knocking him down. Miss Mazanah Knight of Hartford City, who has not walked for thirty years, underwent an operation at Cincinnati f)ur months ago, and she is now walking without assistance and constantly getting stronger.
