Mot Weather Food. *‘On broiling days,” says a busy woman, “food is very disttstefoL I find myself ignoring luncheon hour, and then in the middle of the afternoon 1 am exhausted in noaseqvtaee. This is not right. One needs nourishing food through such strain of weather, but not heating food. Iff canuot eat at noon, 1 at least go out and get an j egg phosphate. .There are both nourish-! tuent and a little stimulant in this drink. 1j take care to go to a place where I can see I the fresh egg broken into the glass which 1! find more appetising and nourishing than j tho extract used at some soda fountain ; counters. About 3 o’clock 1 get a second one, and in this way 1 get through a broil- I ing day with comfort. Two raw eggs, 1 find, are sufficient nourishment from break- j fast to dinner, both of which meals I force. ; if the inclination is tacking, to partake of amply. Phjsieians say that systems weak- j ened by fasting succumb easily U> the effec ts of the heat. but. on the other hand, hearty, j hot meals in the mi*idle of the day for one j who must go on working through the beat ' of the afternoon are not to he recommend-1 ed.

1. Do not man? a man whose nose shows an? natural deformity or twisting; there will in variably he some corresponding law in his moral nature. 3. Do mg man? a man whom nose comes out of the big forehead in almost a straight liue, the type of nose often In statues following the 6reek models. Such a nose is in variably accompanied by extreme willfulness, selfishness and sometimes cruelty. Nero had such a nose, and so did I Mary, Queen of Soots. 3. Do not marry a nan with a sharp, {minted nose, he will bare a sharp, uncomfortable character, he will be hard to please; there will be acidity in his nature, 4. If a man tells yon he is an artist or writer and has a nose that is not refined at the tip do not believe him. There is great value in the aesthetic finish of the tip of the nose in men of these two classes. fi. If you want a husband who will make his way in the world and probably make power or money, take one whose notse is broad-ridged and prominent and bears a moderate hump in its upper halt If he is | a wide headed man as well, he will insure j j you your wish. And he will be a brave fellow physically as well. , i 6. If you want a husband who will tie' | always hopeful and buoyant, take oue with a tip tilted nose, but not too short, fur if it be that you will find him over impulsive. 7. And once more, do not marry a man | with a long, drooping aots*. Besides being gloomy and secretive, he will probably be critical and fault finding9. If you want a husband in whose heart you will hold undisputed sway do not marry | a man with these three signs, fatal to faithfulness: A narrow eye, aimoud shaped, or I with straight edge under hd: an upper lip ! full at the center and red and moist; a palm | which shows on the mount of Venus (the full fieehy part under the thumb)‘many 1 well cut lines crossing at right angles.

Util be Filled Up. It has been stated tide and again, sayv the Princeton Democrat, that the railway company would not only fill the hig hole wa-hed bv water at the Hazleton wreck, but that they intend to -cunite the terrible breach in the levee. In fact so much has been said that people wonder if anything is really going to be done. On this point the Democrat tsabieto state that, in a few— very few—days two immense streams of sand will be pouring into that hole, and the filling up will simply be a matter v>f time. It is to he done this way. Mr. Watch Hollenbeck of KvansviUe. took the contract at $6,090, we understand, and will complete it. In the river, .east of and , above the break, there have been located two large barges and a work house. From the . immense sand bar at, that point two ten-inch irou sewer pipes will lead to the •*big hole.” On tire barges are located two 30-horse power boilers and in the house is the engine that will pump the air, which will force the sand through the pipes at a terrible rate, the sand containing 40 per cent of water. The arrangement is complete with steam shove is which gather the saud and place it to be blown through the pipes. The machinery is about all placed, aud we are informed that the work will be pursued uight and day until it i> completed. There j will not be a large number of men employed. It is eipeeted that 90 days will be consumed I in completing the job.

There b no ! Aboat it. Xo question indeed with those who have used it, but that Foley's Kidney Cure is absolutely reliable tor all kidney and bolder diseases. Bergen & Ohphant. j Your Blood Relatives. Grandfathers and grandmothers are very proud when they can boast of having a paitry score of descemlents, but no one seems to be aware of the grounds he has for boasting of the number of hU ancestors, sav* Answers. Has it ever occurred to you count back, in a direct line? If not. try it now, and you will be astonished. At first the remove you have two—father and mother. At tht next step you have four—two grandfathers and two grandmothers. Each of these has a father and a mother, so you have four great-grandfathers and four great-grand-mothers. Each of these, again, has had two parents, so that at the fourth generation back you have sixteen ancestors, at the fifth you have thirty-two. at the sixth you have sixty-four and at the seventh you have 12t\ As you go a little further they rise to the thousands, tent of thousands, hundreds of thousands, so that, if all your direct ancestors for twenty generations he added together they amount-to over 1,060,000, and if you go back another twenty degree* they total 1.000,000,000—more people than there are in the world at the present moment, if you leave out Asia. Sow as forty generations are equal to only about 1,300 years, it you were to calculate back to the beginning of the world, you simply couldn't find figures to express the number of your blood relations. t Wonderful! Marvelous! Are expressions frequently heard about Foley's Kidney Cure. Ho not fail to try this great remedy for ail kidney trouble. Bergen 4 OUphaat. j
