AUR DICK HEADAOHE
To Dress Well.
If you would_drees in good taste pay
particular attention to shoes, gloves and
veils, to niooty in the matter of neok-
wear, and to trifles that give pretty fin-
ishing touches to a plain costume.
The woman who is dressed in good
taste is not always the one who spends
the most on her clothes, but, rather, the
one who can afford so few frocks that
she sticks to plain modes and colors best
suited to her.
The woman who will give a little
thought to the matter of dress manages
to spend little money and get better re-
mits and service than the careless, in-
different woman who is oontent to wear
"just anything."
A woman's gown is one of the in.
dexes to her character. If for no other
reason, it should merit careful consid-
eration.
HAVE YOU CATARRH.

If yon have oatarrh, with offensive
breath, burning pains in the throat,

A NEW WHITE PAGE.
THE WINGHAM TIMES MAY
BRAIN AND BULLET, ----
Various Life Marks Seen By An Ob.
servant Ma'n On the Fret Snow.
When nature turns the first white
page of winter for the record of her
infinite activities her children are
alert and ready to inscribe the varied
stories of their personal exploits and
ineanderings. Where the new snow
slopes down in a cold, clean sheet to
the curve of a hurrying stream a
muskrat began the inscription with-
out waiting for the guiding illumina-
tion of day. His babylike feet have
left a firm and regular double track
of distinct impressions in the snow,
and between these runs the groove of
his snakelike tail. The now snow pre-
serves the record of his early excur-
sion, even to the crystal drops that
fell from his close fur as he left the
watev. He walked along the bank
away from the stream for a short dis-
tance, sat up to look about over the
newly whitened landscape, made a
few distinct impressions in the snow
with his fore feet as if curious about
the new covering the world had put
on, and then returned by a longer
route, taking tho water close to
where he had emerged. There is dig-
nity and deliberation in the trail of
the muskrat, writes Mr. S. T. Woods,
in The Globe.
Beyond the high bank is a record
so small and faint as to indicate help-
less weakness, almost lost in the
broad white expanse. A field mouse
with short, hasty steps made his la-
borious way for a few feet over the
snow and disappeared under a small
drift that concealed his further
course. How big and impassable the
world must have seemed to him when
he floundered more than his depth in
the little groove, while his tiny feet
sank interniinable distances in the
shallow snow ! In winter he may
commit serious depredations by gird-
ling fruit and other trees under the
weeny, but his little track seems so
helpless on the new page that he is
almost forgiven in advance. A vag-
; rant cat has been abroad, and her
round paws have melted their regud
- lar impressions deeply and distinctly
into the snow. This track moves along
in a sheltering furrow and soon shows
the record of a stealth crouch before
a spring. A few feel away some §I,aty
grey feathers complete the story. Jul'r
coes have been hopping all about the
place, and the long springing strides
of the'. el�ift rush lead to where one

trage y. •s., w �,
Beside the naked woods the trail
of a leaping red squirrel has a much
more cheerful aspect. He bounded
along not in haste, hut in joy, his
broadly separated hind. feet over-
reaching 'the close twin'• marks of his
foie .feet at every 'spring. From one
large tree to another he makes his
way, seeming to inspect , each and
(hurry ' along. At the foot of a black
oak t.the trail ends, oho*ing that the
happy squirrel chose amore athletic
bath among the branelies:
' In the closer woods' the tracks of a
dog' . are scattered about with an ire
regularity suggesting human influ-
ences. Turning, doubling, crossing;
'and recrossing, his tracks lead about
in bewildering uncertainty. The cause
of all the excitement is disclosed by
,the clear, quadruple track of a cotton-
tail beside a small vibirnum bush.
The long leaps that threw the dog
off the scent make this -trail difficult
to follow. Cottontail was evidently in
a hurry,udging by his long irregular
bounds, but his separated hind feet
point his direction. Where the shrub-
bery is more open the dog finds his
trail again, and both lead away to-
ward the dark green cedars. Near a
broken field a crow has stalked
thoughtfully, etching his bold records
along the white expanse. The scales
of a pine cone scattered by a squirrel
are littered about on the fresh snow.
The new page is marked everywhere,
but from the low, uncertain clouds
the north wind scatters a feathery
spray of snow as if to efface the re-
cords of nature's handiwork and pre-
serve the open expanse in its virgin
whiteness.

What Happens When the Skull Is
Pierced by a Shot.
The results of firing a bullet at a.
flat brittle bone and into a soft sub-
stance like the brain are very different
The bone is pierced, and the lateral die
placement of Its particles is very slight,
but the brain Is thrown aside In aU d .
reetions, The difference Is due to the
different degree of cohesiveness of the
particles composing the two bodies or,
In other words, to the greater fluidity
of the softer structure.
Next, the importance of fluid con-
tents in intensifying the effects of a
bullet fired through a closed recepta-

ments, Two Identical tin canisters
were filled with equal quantities of
lint, which in one was dry and in the
other saturated with water.
A bullet of moderate velocity fired
through them simply perforated the
dry one,, but caused the wet one to
burst explosively. Kocher also filled
a skull with water and found that a
bullet fired through It caused bursting
of the sutures.
Very remarkable is the shattering
that results when skulls that have been -
filled with water or with wax are
treated in this way, and if they are
compared with others showing the ef-
fects of bullet wounds nutter normal
conditions it Is easy to appreciate that
the variations presented are depend-
ent, in part at least, upon the differ•
euce in the character of the contents. -
Current Literature.
SPONGE FISHERS.
The Greek Girl Divers of the Island of
Himla.
"We were cruising in the Mediter-
ranean in the late fall," said a globe
trotter, "and on a golden afternoon we
stopped beside a little fleet of sponge
divers. Nearly nude, the divers sat on
the edge of the boat. They held big
stones that would help them descend.
One at a time they inhaled three or
four long breaths and then plunged
with their great stones into the blue
water.
"One boat interested us. Its divers
seemed sograceful and young. We
drew nearer, and, by Jove, the divers
were all girls. They were young Greek
girls from Himia, an island near
Rhodes. It seems that in Himia the
sponge diving is carried on by girls
altogether. These girls seemed very
expert. Their dark hair knotted on
their shapely heads, they reclined on
the sun warmed deck till their turn
came. Then, graceful as stage dan-
cers, they leaped overboard and in the
sea's dim green depths tugged at the
black sponge growths.
"The captain saki the Himla girls
were not permitted to marry till they
bad brought a certain quantity of
sponges from a certain specified
depth." -
Queer Chinese Belief.
It is a common belief among China-
men that if one commits any crime
against certain animals -cats, for ex-
ample -the soul of that animal will
take possession of. the wrongdoer until
the offense has been purged. A serv-
ant girl, according to the oriental tale,
unmindful of tradition, put to death a
cat and its three kittens. She was
taken violently ill. Her mistress, sus-
pecting the cause from the fact that
the maid was scratching and mewing,
apostrophized the body of the dead
cat, demanding to know why it thus
tormentedThespirit the girl. spi t of the
cat, speaking by way of the girl's
mouth, denounced the quadruple mur-
der, The whole story was told by the
girl in the character of the cat. Then
she expired in violent convulsions.
Elephants Can Carry a Grudge.
A Hindoo mahout was employed with
a working elephant in Bangkok, Siam,
and frequently used a steel goad in de-
fiance of all warnings. The result was
that his elephant made frequent at-
tempts to kill him, and finally the man
was discharged. Nearly four years
afterward, by a most remarkable coin-
cidence, both elephant and mahout met
again in Maulmain, Burma, and no
sooner was the big tusker out of sight
of the sawmill aid well into the forest
than he curled his trunk up backward,
seized his old persecutor by the neck,
hurled him to the ground, and in an
instant a mighty forefoot had crushed
out his life.
Bewitched.
Morrison, an English traveler of the
seventeenth century, while at Dantzic,
Prussia, says he "saw a mill which,
without the help of human hands, did
saw boards It had a great Iron wheel,
which did not only drive the saw, but
which did also hook in and turn the
logs on to the saw." Dr. John Dee
must have seen a similar mill at
Prague. Of it he says, "I saw me a
mill at Prague of ;which I verily be-
lieve the devil himself was master."

WOMEN'S SIZE IN HATS.
[London Truth j
So women have no size in bats,
The fact a light instinctive sheds,
On something ease besides, and that's
Th' adaptiveuess of women's heads,
For woman's head is email, or big,.
Or middle-sized, or dark, or fair,
According to her style of w-,
I beg the ladies' pardon -hair..
Now, when a tile the male -roan buys -
Say, Diok or Harry, Tom or Ned -
He needs must buy it of the size
To fit his own especial head.
But Oloe knows a better plan,
Her headwear's size, what matter that,
When, at a pinch she always can
Make up her head to St her hat?

Or the sky might be gray.
But be brought yon good cheer

From our side of th' street;

When he jollied along.
Nurse Tells of Eczema. Cure.
Miss C. Stanley -Jones, professional
nurse, 283 Simcoe Street, Toronto,
writes: -"In my occupation as nurse I
have oome across many oases in which
Dr. Chase's Ointment has been used
with extraordinary results. One ease is
that et a sixteen months old child who
was cured of scald heal and another
that of a woman cured of eczema on the
faces, after her doctor had given up."
What Moles Signify.
According to an old authority a mole
on the right oheek or right arm signifies
happiness in love affairs; on the right
hand, a happy marriage.
A mole on the left cheek or left arm
signifle adverse fortune, particularly as
regards love affairs; on the left hand, an
unfortunate marriage from a wordly
viewpoint.
Moles on the right cheek or arm, in
c:mbination with ore or more cn the
left hand, point to more good fortune in
love affairs than in money matters.
A mole on the chin, if it be light yel-
low in color, denotes that a woman will
be a good housewife; if brown in color,
it portends a happy married life.
A mole on the tip of the nose shows
to a woman likelihood of much admira-
tion and jealous lovers, in her dealings
with whom she is recommended to ex-
ercise great oantion and disoretion.
A mole at the right hand oorner of
the month is a sign of wealth; a mole at
the left hand corner of the mouth, warns
the possessor to beware of treachery and
and a false lover.
In buying a hair mattress chose one
filled with blank rather than white hair,
