. - A Little Beauty Talk.
Headache is often the -result of In
digestion. No woman, however perfect
of feature, cau be truly beautiful when
a racking pain draws her face full
of fine lines and dulls the 'expression
of the eyes. The next time you are
Buffering with headache try drinking
a Jialf glass of cold water into which
have been put the juice of half a
lemon and a half teaspoonful of soda.
The drink is not unpleasant, and in
many cases it brings almost immediate
relief.
A woman whose hair is always soft
aud glistening has disclosed the secret
of her attractive coiffure. She buys
a package of absorbent cotton from
the druggist. Next she strips a layer
from it and places the layer over the
bristles of a wire hair brush, pushing
it wefl down until .the bristles pene
trate the cotton, which should lie close
to the back of the brush. Then she
strokes the hair, beginning near the
scalp and giving a vigorous stroke to
the ends. A few of these firm strokes
will reveal how large a quantity of
dust and smoke can be taken up by
the cotton, the result being the same
as the cold cream bath to the face at
the end of the day.
Just as cold cream leaves the face
bright and fresh, the cotton brushing
leaves the hair with a brilliant sBeen
and a natural fiuffiness.
The cotton stroke should be admin
istered every night just before retiring,
an open window being the ideal place
for the beautifying process.
Every woman has known the misery
of needing a shampoo after a journey
and not being able to have it at once
because of lack of facilities. The hot
andj cold water may be handy, but not
the shampoo medium. So prepare this
before you leave home and carry it
along in a rightly stoppered bottle a
three ounce vial will do.
Boil castile soap shaved to a powder,
about two heaping teaspoonfuls in a
little water, putting in about two salt
spoonfuls of washing soda. When get
ting ready to wash the hair, massage a
wee bit of coltt cream into the scalp,
then slightly wet' the hair and work
In the scalp jelly or liquid into the
scalp, of course.
Rinse as usual, trying to keep the
successive waters at an even tempera
ture. It is the sudden change from
hot to cold water that makes the hair
harsh, as it is so often found to be after
the most careful shampoo.
The reason given by beauty people
for boiling the soap used in shampoos
is that this preparation makes it still
more bland. If the hard cake is rubbed
directly upon the hair it is bound to be
harsh and less bright than if the head
is wasnea Dy a regularly prepared soap
as directed.
Toothbrush Wisdom.
Tooth powders containing charcoal
have the effect of whitening the teeth
as well as purifying the breath. An ex
cellent idea is to rub a little dry char
coal powder into the crevices between
the teeth upon retiring at night, then
brush it away in the morning. ' Char
coal absorbs all impurities, either.solid
or gaseous, leaving the teeth white and
glistening and the gums clean and rosy.
Any stray particles 0f - charcoal that
might be carried into the stomach
would act as an aid to digestion rathei
than as a detriment. Bicarbonate of
soda (common baking soda) has much
vne same enect, Deing a benent Dotn to
the teeth and to the stomach.
A Toilet Water.
A good toilet water may be made in
the following way: Take six ounces of
deodorized alcohol and two ounces of
powdered Florentine orris root Put
the powde" in a china basin and pour
the liquid ou gradually until the whole
is well mixed. . Then add six drops of
essential oil of violets, and pour the
whole -into a bottle and cork It.
This should be kept three weeks.
When it is wanted, a little of the fra
grant water should be poured into the
bath.
It s bood For Insomnia.
An entire milk diet is an excellent
thing for the woman who, is troubled
with insomnia. It is also good for the
one who is so nervous that when she
does sro to slepn she has the sensation
of falling and wakes wi.th a terrific
start. When these conditions exist it
is well to subsist .on milk alone for
some time. A grown woman should
take a pint of milk as a meal, but to
l:eep her strength she should take four
liea Is a day instead of the usual three.
Practice Tl is Stunt For Grace.
To in rei t the stooping that so often
conies with age practice walking with
a load mi the head. When shoulder
blades become too obtrusive stand with
the back against the wall and stretch
out the arms with the backs of the
hands against the wall. Keep this pc;
sition for a few minutes, then lower
the arms and repeat the movement
Care of Face Chamois.
When washing your powder chamois
do not rinse out all the soap or it will
dry hard and harsh. Use a good soft
soap and (Jo not wring it out in clear
water. 'This will bring forward the
natural oils in the leather, and it w'Jl
be soft and pliable as new.
BLESSINGS OF WORK.
. Thank God every morning when
you get up that you have something
to do that day which must be done,
whether you (ike it or not. Being
forced to work and forced to do
your best will breed in you temper
ance, sell control, diligence, strength
of will, content and a hundred vir
tues which the idle will never know.'

1 Growth of Rocks.
Rocks do not grow in the sense that
a plant grows. They may increase by
accretion, and they may undergo chem
ical change. The old sea bed, being
lifted up, becomes sandstone and lime
stone. The volcanic ash and lava
strewn over the plains become tufa,
nard enough for building stone. The
pebbly shore of a river becomes con
glomerate. . The simple mineral does
grow, however, when it takes a crystal
form. -The sparkling- prism of quartz
increases from an -atom to a crystal
as large as a forearm by a process of
addition and assimilation, wonderfully
slow, but beautifully regular, exactly
as crystals of ice form on the window-pane.

Councilman Beard said he had at
all times held that the charge should
be a certain sum, and objected tp the
percentage charge. He then made a
motion that the Portland Railway,
Light & Power Company pay $1,000 a
year, payable $250 a quarter, in ad
vance. Councilman Albright said that he
wished to deal fairly with the com
pany and the people. He said tflat
Oregon City wanted lower freight and
passenger rates, and it did not seem
fair that the council should charge
such a "high rate. If the same charge
or a higher charge were made else
where, he said it would be different,
but under the present conditions he
felt that 312 per cent would be un
fair to the company. He said that
he was in facor of a compromise and
would ask that the company pay $900
a year, payable quarterly in advance.
F. J. Meyer" said that he was in fav
or of a flat and not the percentage
system. .
Councilman Horton held that the
percentage system was fair to both
company and the city. He said that
the representatives of the company
were looking after the company's in
terests, and he thought that th,? ciry's
representatives should look aftor the
interests of the city.
Councilman Beard was not looking
after the railway's interest, he said,
and was not interested in tlje com
pany. He said however, that this was
like a contract and that they should
meet the company in all fairness, and
try' to come to an agreement.
Mr Tooze said that Mr Griffith had
said early in the evening that should
the 3 1-2 per cent clause pas3, the
railway company would be forced to
raise the freight rates or suffer an un
just burden. He- pointed out that
there was a railway commission, and
that it would finally adjust the rates,
and that the commission would figure
the rates on a percentage basis, hence
the charge should be made on a per
centage basis. He said that he was in
favor of charging the railway com
pany in the neighborhood of $1000,
but wanted it on a percentage basis.
Councilman Pope said that for sev
eral days he had canvasse.l the mer
chants of Oregon City, asking their
opinion regarding the charge. He
j said that with the exception of two,
they were in favor of a flat rate.
Mr. Griffith explained that after-a
compensation had been agreed upon,
at the next meeting of the council,
the council could pass an ordinance

assessing the railway company any
amount. For instance, he said, $5
could be assessed for every car which
entered the city. He wanted the
council to fix a price and then assure
the company that it would not assess
any other taxes upon it.
' Mr. Beard's motion was' carried by
a vote of 6 to 2. Councilmen Beard,
Albright, Holman, Roake, Pope and
Meyer voted yes and Councilmen Hor
ton and Tooze voted no. After the
vote had been taken, Mr. Tooze ask

Councilman Beard said that there
was no work for Street Inspector Burk
and made a motion that he be dismiss
ed. Mr. Horton, in defense of Mr.
Burk, said that he worked each day
from early in the morning until late
at night, and that there was a great
deal of work for him to do. It was a
saving to the city, he said, to retain
Mr. Burk. Mayor Dimick ruled this
motion out of order, explaining that
a resolution had been adopted by the
council giving the committee on
streets and public property power to
act, and that it was not in the hands
of the council as a whole unless the
resolution be withdrawn. Mr. Beard
withdrew his motion.
