A dim tied, blinking boy baby, 3
day oi l, wiih u p:isHdigi-r cn the tour
ist car on westbound O. R. & N. train
today, and of this ynungHter there is
much to say.
While the Colorado Midland Over
land train was speeding westward ut
the rat of 50 miles an hour last Fri
day night, the mother of this urchin,
Mrs. R. Herman nf St. Louis, gave
birth to him, as the train was crossing
the state line between Colorado and
Utah, and for the life of him he can
never tell exactly which is his native
state, so complicated was the situation
on the tourist car where he was born,
for the time being.
Mother and child are. well and arc
none the worse for their extraordinary
experience. Mrs. Rertnall fully ex
pected to reach the home of her sis
ter In Portland before the birth of her
boy, but left Kt. Louis three days too
late to accomplish her wish.
It was the first child ever born on
a Colorado Midland train and the
conductor at first was determined to
stop and put the woman off at some
convenient station where she could
receive suitable care and assistance,
but Dr. Orrln McK. Mitchell of New
York city, who was a passenger on
the train, offered his services and It
was finally decided to permit the
woman to proceed on her Journey.
Half a dozen women who were also
passengers rendered valuable assist
ance to the mother and child during
the hot Journey across Utah and
Idaho, but both are doing nlcelv and
will reach Portland tonight after a
lf!o-t eventful trip.

Sir. Charles statfil to a Star reporter
thut In his opinion the report that $8.

practically all the gold that Is shipped

shipments made so far this season, it
seems to ine that the total output will
not go very far above S,0fft.aO0."
When asked about the recent hold

"The reports of those hold-ups I"
believe to be very much exaggerated.
One highwayman seems to have been
terriortzhig the country, but he made

THE HUMAN BRAIN.
It Is Onr Moat IIIitMr Specialised
and Vitalised Organ.
The story of the brain as scientist!!
have gradually unfolded 1U peculiar
construction Is of marvelous Interest
This pulpy and apparently homo
geneous muss Is revealed to us as the
most highly specialized and vitalized
organ In the human body. It consists
of hundreds of millions of separate
und Independent organisms, once
known as nerve cells, lint now cull? I
"neurones." These units of the liritlu
are Independent bodies and consist of
a cell body. Its axis and Its branches.
The cell hotly contains within Its cov
ering membrane elements which gen
erate the nerve force or energy. The
axis Is the nerve or medium which
conveys that force, and the branches
are the means of communication of
the neurones with each otln- and with
the organs and tissues to which the
nerve Is distributed. The life history
of these microscopical bodies is the
same us the ceils of other organs und
tissues. They are Implanted before
birth and may remain dormant for a
lifetime. If stimulated to activity they
enlarge through more abundant nutri
tion, but waste and atrophy when the
stimulant Is removed. They are under
going constant changes through the
process of nutrition and from the in
numerable Impressions made upon
them by objects within and without
the body-Stephen Smith, M. P., LI..

OLD TIME COSMETICS.
dome or the lleuotlflrra laed hj the
Dnmen of Antiquity.
A most repulsive cosmetic, but one
which some ltouiau duiues of antiquity
esteemed us most precious, was the
blood of the young hure.
During the sixteenth century the wa
ter In which beans had been trailed was
used lis a complexion wash, and this
farinaceous water is entitled to all the
fume it possesses. The ancient Gauls,
whose beautiful color was u subject of
so much envy to the patrician Romans,
washed their faces In the foam of beer;
also In a liquid mude from dissolving
chalk In vinegar.
An old Italian recipe for obliterating
the Injurious effects of salt air und
sunshine is to bathe the face with the
white of an egg well beaten. Let it
dry on the sUln and rinse It off nfter
fifteen minutes. This treatment must
be rciM'stcd three or four times and al
ways at night before retiring.
Koine under the empire and Greece
during the time of l"eriies were seized
with 11 mania for golden hair. Many a
dame dampened her raven tresses In
the strongest of muriatic acid and sat
in the sun to bleach her hnlr to the
coveted yellow. Others used lye and
afterward anointed their heads with
oil made from goat fat. ashes of the
lieeeh tree and certain yellow flowers.
SHAKING HANDS.
A Few General Rule That Govern
This Phase of Ettiiurtte.
When to shake bauds is a subject
which depends somewhat on circum
stances, yet u few general rules may be
given. When a man is Introduced to
a woman she does not shake hands
with him unless be is decidedly elderly
or distinguished. If he is the husband
or brother of the woman presenting
him It is natural to receive blni cor
dially by shaking bands, but It Is not
form to do so If he Is a mere acquaint
ance. A hostess should shake hauils with
every guest who comes to Iter house,
both on their arrival and departure.
Women do not shake hands when in
troduced to each other, but merely
bow. When, however, a young girl Is
presented by a friend to a married
woiniin the latter shakes hunds with
her, but the girl must not moke the
first advance.
Men shake hands wheu Introduced to
each other as an expression of good
will. When leaving an entertainment
a man shakes hands with the hostess.
and he may do so with friends who
are near, but he must not go about
shaking hands generally. New York

Mast He Tull Men.
"Iu the selection of church ushers
luck all runs with the tall men," said a
young man who was politely turned
down by the board of trustees of a

to march down the nlsle after the col

THE HUMAN NOSE.
Facts nnd Coinraentn Abunt This Moaf
Characteristic Feature.
A nose which in nny way suggests
our iipe-llke ancestors, whether snub,
flattened or abnormally small, Is
deenuil ugly. Generally speaking, the
long jjose belongs to the people of Eu
rope, whereas the negroes and Mongo
lians have short noses. With the Eski
mo the nose Is said to be In many cases
so flat that a ruler might be placed so
as to rest upon both cheeks without
touching it. in the man the muscles of
the nose have little flexibility except
about Ihe nostrils, which visibly dilate
and contract under the Influence of
passion.
Manjegazza has remarked that among
civilized people the nose is nearly ul
ways deflected toward the right, which
he attributes to the custom of wiping
the nose with the right hand. Leonardo
da Vinci discovered that there were
over ten different varieties of nose
seen In profile and eleven when looked
at In front, diaries Blnnc considered
the nose the most characteristic fea
ture of the face aud recommended la
dies to regulate the style of their dress
with reference to Its shape, and Lava
ter wnt so far as to assert that a
beauti' iil nose was worth more than a
klugib in; thut It is never associated
with n.i ugly face. International Quar

The action of the friend who Is com

hurrying along the platform just be
fore the train started, flung himself
upon a seat that was already occupied
with a Gladstone bug. "That seat is

"My friend has kept It with his bag."
"All r'ght," said the wily passenger
affably. "I'll occupy It till he comes."
Of course the friend never came, and
Just 04 the train was moving out of
the station the wily passenger seized
the bag and threw It out of the win
dow. 'Whnt are doing, Bir?" shouted

No longer must the pretty PrcnUr
terian bride promise to -obey" that
blushing bridegroom who stain! te
ller side. No longer need the mii-vat-llne
Presbyterian fancy that this out
little word makes blm :i czar. Kor it
revised prayer book, the "Book C
Common Worship," has appeared
and It is a change which might glad
den the heart of Susan B. Anthony or
Mary Ellen Lease, says an ritsti-ra
newspaper.
"Radical" is the adjective applied 1st
the change In the marriage service,
from which the church strikes out that
word "obey" and substitutes therriaa
"covenant." Neither man nor woinaa
Is required to pledge obedience to that
other. Here Is the new pledge:
"I, N, take thee, M. to be my wvef
ded husband: I promise and covermnt,
before Ood and these witnesses;
be thy loving and rahhful wife so
plenty and In want. In Joy and in sw
row, In sickness and in health, as lone
as we both shall live."
Hut this Is not the only change 1
this "Book of Common WorshfptT
compiled by a committee of ministers
and elders and to be offered to rarh
congregations as desire a liturgies
form of worship. It is a very ctae
copy of the American Episcopal Bete
Ice and. at is alleged, approves nuutV
things of which the forefathers of ttm
Presbyterlanisni have fought ant
withstood persecution.
One of the startling features of tne
"Treasury' of Prayer," a part of th
new book, is prayers for Advent, Gooel
Friday and Easter. Complete frnn
are given for morning and eventnsr
service, for the celebration of hner
cnmmunlon. for the administration csT
Bnptlsm. burial of the dead and th
solcmnlzatlon of marriage. All the
are new.
Old Presbyterians, who had as
glimpse of the book, shake their heada
over the "confession of sins," whfcai
takes exactly the same place in th
service than the "general confession
does in the Anglican liturgy. Imme
diately following the confession bx-.-
the people comes the assurance -e4T-pardon."
to be said by the pastor, "that
people still bowing down." This a
surnnce differs in effect from that of
one form of absolution used In tha
Episcopal church, chiefly In that It
employs the pronouns "us" and "our
Instead of "you" and "your," thus re
lieving It from the suggestion of beinj
a direct pronouncing of absolution fos
the people by the priest..
The "gloria patrf" has been intro
duced In the service; provision as
made for the reading of a lesson front
the Old Testament and one from thw
New Testament. A hymn folloin the-
