It Is often the case that people meet
#ith accidents and bruises that cause
disfiguring discolorations. from which
they suffer not a little embarrassment
and annoyance. It is worth while to
know that there is a simple remedy
and one quite within the reach o i
every one. Immediately after the acci
dent mix an equal quantity of cap
sicum annum with mucilage made of
gum arable. To this add a few drops
of glycerin. The bruised surface should
b? carefully cleansed and dried, then
painted all over with the capsicujn
preparation. Use a camel's hair brush
and allow it to dry. then put on th?
second or third coat as soon as tht
first is entirely absorbed. A medical
Journal Is authority for the statement
that If this course Is pursued immedi
ately after the Injury discoloration of
the bruised tissue will be wholly pre
vented. It is also said that this rem*
dy Is unequaled us a cure for rheuma
tism or stiffness of the neck.

A SEVT OF MANY ILLS.
Eye Strain ti Responsible For a Num
ber of Ailments.
When the specialist to whom they
had taken their sixteen-year-old daugh
ter on account of what seemed to be a
case of Incipient melancholia dla?no?'?vl
the case as one of eye strain and or
dered prompt treatment from an ocu
list, the parents of a young New York
girl were astonished. Eye strain seem
ed as remote from melancholia as i
would corns on the feet. Their aston
ishment was proportionately increased
when after a few treatments and ac
quiring glasses the child showed no
ticeable Improvement.
I jitter day medical science traces to
eye strain many ills which seem so re
mote from the eyes that formerly 'phy
siclans never thought of establishing a
connection totwe-n them. Sick head
ache. nervousness, melancholia, insom
nia. are but n few which have of law
been laid to the door of weak eyes, the
proper treatment having been neg
lected.
Nervous diseases of the nature of St.
j Vitus* dance are now thought to origi
nate frequently In eye trouble. The
weak eyes blink Incessantly, and this
leads to a general contortion of the
facial muscles, which grows on the
Bubject through constant repetition.?
Exchange.
The Names of Tea.
We talk glibly about I'ekoe, Bobea,
etc., but few people have any idea of
what these names signify. "Pekoe"
In the dialect of Canton means "white
hair," for the tea which bears this
name Is made from the youngest
leaves, so young that the white down
Is still on them. "Soochong" In the
same dialect Is a quite unpnetlc name.
It merely signifies "small klud."
"Flourishing spring" is the meaning
of "Hyson." "Kongo" signifies "la
bor." Much trouble aud toil are ex
pended in Its preparation at Amoy, and
these are commemorated in Its name.
"Bobea" is called after a range of hills.
? Portland (Ore.i Journal.
To Clean Bronzes.
I It is not a good plan to cleau bronzes,
! as the polish is very easily spoiled, but
' If necessary nothing is better than
cleaning them with water and ammo
nia, using a stiff brush like a nailbrush.
Dry carefully after riusing thoroughly.
They should be carefully dusted every
day witfl a soft cloth and a feather
brush, and a little sweet oil may be
rubbed on occasionally. To remove
stains from bronze make the article
very hot by dipping It in boiling water.
Then rub It with a piece of flannel dip
ped In suds made from yellow soap,
; rubbing clean with soft linen cloths.
Good For Evil.
I There are some people who turn
i gray, but do not grow hoary; whose
faces are furrowed, but not wrinkled;
whose hearts are sorely wounded in
many places, but are not dead, rbere
Is a youth that bids defiance to old age,
and there is a kindness which laughs
nt the world's usage. These are they
who have returned good for evil. Whom
' the gods love die young, and they die
i i young because they never grow old.?

Flmt Appearance vt 13 an draff a For*
runurr of Future BnldneM.
That % such Is the case has been con
clusively proven by scientific research,
l'rof. Unna, the noted European skin
specialist, declares that dandruff is the
burrowed-up cuticle of the sca\p, caused
by parasites destroying the vitality in
the hi!r bulb. The hair becomes lifeless,
and. fn time, falls out. This can be pre
| vented.
I Newl>rV.<; Herpicide J<ills this dandruff

softness and abundancy.
Herpicide is now used by thousands of
people? ail satisfied that it Is the most
wonderful hair preparation on the mar
ket to-day.
