. To Avoid Grayness.
Most women past middle age look
handsomer with gray hair unless they
are fat and colorless, but the difficulty
is to make them believe it.
A missionary says that few of the
native women have gray hair when
advanced in years. This she attributes
to the nearly universal use of grease
on the hair.
A scalp specialist when asked about
this theory said: "There is much in it
Gray hair often comes from too little
oil in the scalp. If women would grease
their hair more it would keep its color
longer."
The objection to a greasy head can
be overcome. A little vaseline can be
well rubbed into the scalp once a week.
If this cannot be done without getting
it in the long hair, go to a hairdresser.
If you will not use vaseline,"at least
give the hair a thorough oiling each
time before it is shampooed, which
should be about once a month in cold
weather, oftener in summer.
Rub the hair with crude oil the night
before it is to be washed. Do not use
too much. About half what the ama
teur thinks necessary will be more
than enough. As even this small
amount is ruinous to bed linen, tie up
the head and put an old .case on the
pillow. Some women wear a bathing
cap for the one night.
Besides giving the oil needed to pre
vent grayness, this application of crude
oil keeps out dandruff as nothing else
will.
Where there is a tendency in families
to turn gray early extra care of the
hair must be taken. Do not use dry
washes on it and be careful of hot
curliuK irons.
Where there is a tendency to gray
hair cultivate a placid disposition.
Worry acts on the nerves, and nervous
disorders unchecked are harmful to
the hair. For the same reason fight off
bad headaches. Besides their discom
fort the hair suffers. Thus Indirectly
eye strain is responsible for gray and
falling hair.
Care of the Throat.
A famous throat doctor, who cares
for the vocal organs of many of the
greatest of our opera singers, makes
the unqualified statement that if
throats and noses were systematically
cleansed many illnesses, including
bronchitis, catarrh and consumption,
would be averted.
A salt water douche and gargle to
cleanse the throat and nose thoroughly
should be used, he declares, at least
twice a day.
"Fill a wide mouthed bottle." be ad
vises, "holding a pint, with boiled wa
ter and add to it a teaspoonful of com
mon sea salt. When you rise in the
moniiug and when you retire at night,
after gargling the throat with the so
lution, fill the hollow of the hand with
it and draw it up the nose, throwing
the head back. This last should be
done carefully. It will cause coughing,
but will completely clear all the little
spaces and intricate passages of the
nose and throat."
Toilet Suggestions.
When the hair splits clip the ends.
For ink stains on the fingers try
lemon and salt
Corns can be removed by daily rub
bing with toilet pnmice.
One dram of boric acid mixed with
four ounces of distilled witch hazel
make a good lotion for a .greasy skin.
Apply with a soft cloth or velvet
sponge.
When the first symptoms of a head
ache appear take one teaspoonful of
clear lemon juice fifteen minutes be
fore each meal and at bedtime and
continue until symptoms are past
For biliousness plain lemon juice pro
motes sleep and appetite.
Soap and water are needed to re
move blackheads, which are caused by
dirt collecting in the pores. After
rinsing the face in clean water rut
over it a piece of ice. This will con
tract the pores. After drying the skin
apply witch hazel to it
Mary Garden's Beauty Hint.
"Porridge and going to bed early
and a little drop of something that
all good Scots take at critical moments
to this formula 1 attribute my shall
we say form-'". Thus testified Mary
Garden as toier mode of living last
summer when she was resting at her
country place near Aberdeen.
"Going to bed early is just as im
portant as the other two items, and,
as for porridge, I can assure any one
who is afraid of gaining weight that a
porridge diet will insure her against
gain, but not against loss. You see, I
am an example. I am In the best of
health, eyes clear, .complexion good,
and I weigh exactly the same as I did
last yetir. 137. which is the proper
weight for a singer. '"
For the Manicure.
Peroxide of hydrogen plays an Im
portant part in the process of mani
cure, for this not only bleaches out
any discoloration, but It is a power
ful disinfectant and will kill any
germs which may have settled under
the nails. s
It is also useful if the file or scis
sors slip and cut the flesh, for it will
purify the cut and if used immediate
ly there is no likelihood of the slight
injury becoming more harmful.
Contradictions.
"The more the merrier." Not so.
One hand Is enough in a parse. "Noth
ing hurts the stomach more than sur
feiting." Yes. lack of meat "Nothing
but what has an end." Not so. A ring
has none, for it is round. "Money is a
great comfort" Not when It brings a
thief to the gallows. "The world is a
long Journey." Not so. The sun goes
over It every day. "It Is a great way
to the bottom of the sea." Not so. It
is but a stone's cast "A friend is best
found in adversity.'" Not so, for then
there Is none to be found. "The pride
of the rich makes the labor of the
poor." Not so. The labor of the poor
makes the pride of the rich.
WILL BE BARRED
No frozen oranges should be per
mitted to enter Portland or other
northwest markets is the opinion of
state officials, as well as the most re
liable wholesalers.
It has been definitely ascertained
that frozen oranges are an injury to
the health, causing much distress to
the stomach, therefore from this view
point only officials are inclined to
keep the stock away from customers.
Great efforts are being made by
Southern California interests to mar
ket the stock in the face of the fact
that jie stock is not fit to eat. Nor
thern California is against the plan
because of the fear, that such market
ing would ruin the reputation of Cali
fornia's big industry.
Outside of the health viewpoint of
ficials believe that such marketing
would work an injury to one of the
Pacific Northwest's, leading industries
apple growing Frosted oranges would
be sold at such a low figure that
much harm to the apple trade would
result. While this is stated to be a
very selfish reason by some interests
the same plan is being worked in
California on other products. Flor
ida grapefruit or oranges are not al
lowed in California, and the same
state has barred Idaho alfalfa. The
product of both these sections iare
admitted to all other states, and
have worked no injury.

speakers. - -
Rev. W.- A. Gorman, of Portland,
was the first speaker. He spoke on
Socialism in its higher forms. Mr.
Gorman, who spent several years in
the London tenements believes that
the people should control all resour
ces. He stated that there were two
kinds of Christian Socialism that the
church was interested in, first, there
is the class in the church that believes
social conditions should be improved,
but that the church should not par
ticipate actively in the condition it
self The second class believes that
it is the duty of the church to parti
cipate actively in working out social
conditions This latter opinion Mr.
Gorman most heartily believes i'a,
and he stated that the church should
get down into the pit and help strug
gling humanity, for so long as bad
social conditions existed the church
was to blame.
B. T. McBain told the story of his
life as an incident pi ' how a man
might rise if he always kept before
him a high goal and was not afarid
of hard work. He believes that ev
ery man should have a chance to
share the profits of the business .that
he is working in. Mr. McBain stat
ed that kindness and the right to
share the profits of a large, business
are factors which will not only make
the men satisfied, but will increase
the efficiency of the business.
Grant B. Dimick said that the best
way to take care of the social unrest
is for all of the unemployed to get
to work and untilize the resources
that lie about them. He declared that
the ordinary Clackamas County farm
er does not do this. Gilbert Hedges
stated that I.e believed men should
not be worked longer than 12 hours
a day and also that corporations
should be controlled by the law.
Other speakers were Colonel Dye,
A. P. Carter and Rev. G. N. Edwards.
Crushing John.
"Maria." said Mr. Billiams, "what

"Never mind the meat, dear," said
Mrs. Billiams. "I'm more concerned

Senator Dimick's bill to require a
medical certificate as an additional
requisite to the issuance of a mar
riage license is one that will interest
all students of eugenics. It has. been
suggested that a provision to have a

physical condition of the applicant
for a marriage license, instead of
placing the responsibility upon a sin
gle physician,' would strengthen, the
measure. The bill is believed to be
meritorious, and bears' the title of
