SUNBURN ANO FRECKLES.
"Why Ooe Tans sad Aootber Freckles Is No
Easy to Explain,
Both of these affections are caused
by the action of the sun's rays, but
"why one person tans while another
freckles ls not easy of explanation.
Both affections are said to be caused
chiefly by the chemical or ultra-violet
Tays, but In the case of sunburn lt ls
probable that the heat also bas some
effect
; The tan may come gradually, without
any burn, after a succession of slight
and brief exposures to the sun or to
high windi*-for -wind will tan ns well
as sunshine. Usually, however, the
city-dweller gets well burned during
the first few days of his vacation in
tho country or on the water.
In severe cases the skin is red, slight
ly swollen, and the sent of A sharp,
barning sensation; if the exposure has
been prolonged, or the glare of the sun
very Intense, It may even be blistered.
After a few days the soreness and
heat subside, and the red color gradu
ally turns to brown.
If the burn is pretty severe, cooling
lotions, such as alcohol and water, di
lated cologne water, a solution of bi
carbonate of soda, or lead water, may
be applied, or tho skin may be smeared
with cold cream, camphor ice, zinc oint
ment, or a mixture of lime-water and
oil. Some such application as this, the
sufferer being careful to keep out of
the sun for a day or two, will usually
suffice.
If blisters form, they should be prick
ed with a clean needle at the most de
pendent part, and when the water has
drained away they should be covered
with, a cloth spread with one of the
greasy applications Just mentioned.
"Freckles occur usually on persons of
.a sandy complexion, especially those
with red hair. They are not common
in very young children, under six or
eight years of age, or in persons of
middle or advanced life. They usually
come for the first time in summer, and
are less marked, or even disappear, in
winter. Persons who freckle do not
tan, as a rule.
Freckles, like sunburn, may be pre
vented by the wearing of a veil, prefer
ably red or brown. Medical books
sometimes speak cf removing freckles
by electricity, or bj touching each one
with a drop of carbolic acid on a glass
Tod, but such severe remedies are worse
than the disease. The spots will fade
out more or less completely In the win
ter, and will disappear wholly in time.
In any case they are not particularly
disfiguring.-Youth's Companion.
A Romedy For the Rod Nose.
A red nose, that trial of trials to a
sensitive woman. Is usually the result
of bad circulation. Wash the feet dally
in warm water, bathe the body every
morning with cold water, adding a lit
tle ammonia to the water. Soaking tho
hands to above the wrists in wurm
water'bas also a beneflciid effect on
the circulation. Hot tea, soup, etc.,
whicby tend to bring the blood to the

? A HEART. !
"He has no heart"
"Who? Bon Triabee? We?, per
haps not, sentimentally Speaking; but.
then, he is nw?l-y and fond of society
and Ime lots of courage, and I expect
that is nearly as good a heart r? tf.ke
one ulong in the world. Uv ls always
ready to speak sowe pleasant words
to drive tb? Mues away and make
life brighter for those about bim."
"Oo you know how old he ls?'*
"Well, he looks about 'JU, but
mother declares she used to go tn
school with him long ago and that he
must bj at least 4lV*
"Why, lt ts not possible!"
"One would not think so to look rtt
him, it is true-to see his sU*y, blonde
mustache and the dHttples all the
time coming em\ going in his fair
face; butthere is hlssister, Mrs. Willey
-she must be nearly 40. I have won?
dered sometimes if it did not make
him feel old to have her Children
calling him Uncle Ben."
"His sister* ail worship him."
"Yus, and well they may. for he ls,
ns the old Scotchman says, 'O'er kimi
to them.' "
"And yet you think he has ho
heart?"
"Well, I mean that he never loveo
anybody, and never could love any
body more than live minutes at a
time."
They were two girls walking along
the street of a pretty New tiuglumi
village and earnestly discussing one ot
the lights of society In the quiet place.
Even while they talked, when his
name had scarcely left their lips, he
joined tluVn, this same light-hearted
bachelor, the existence of whose heart
was so problematical to the sent?- J
mental young damsels.
"Good-morning, girls," bc said, j
cheerily. "You always look like a I
pink and a buttercup. What wonder
ful subject are you discussing now?"
One girl blushed and hesitated, and
the other, more frank and fearless,
said, bravely: "We were talking of
yon."
"Of me? Well, that is flattering. !
I declare. Was it some shortcoming of
mine, some sin I have recently com
mitted?"
"No, but we wondered why, when
you are always so kindly and pleasant,
that you have no heart."
The man laughed gayly.
"Is lt the universal verdict that 1
have no heart?" he asked.
And the girl answered: "I guess so.
I have heard it said a good many
times, and I have never heard any
one contradict the fact"
He laughed again-such a merry,
heartsome laugh-and said:
"Well, well, chickens, it is a lack;
that no one would ever accuse you. ol,
only see that your hearts do not lead
you astray, that is all."
With a merry smile he raised his j
hat and said:
"I must bid you gopd-by as well as
good-morning, for I am going away
this afternoon."
"Oh, please, Mr. Trlsbee," said one
of the girls, deprecatingly, "don't go
away so early. Why do you always
leave us with the summer, as though
you were such a warm weather bird
you could not bear the frost?"
"I did not suppose you missed me,"
he said, bowing.
"But we do miss you," persisted
the girl, blushing, "and we like to
have you here."
"Thanks, many thanks. I am sure
your gentle and graceful appreciation
would tempt mo to stay, if anything
could, but I must leave, all the same;
so good-by and don't forget me. 1
will be back early in the spring, ready
for another campaign. Which shall
it be-mountain or sea shore?"
The girls were both looking grieved
and sorry.
"Oh, next summer is so long to
wait," said one of them. "Why can't
you stay here now?"
"Don't ask for rensons or explana
tions," be laughed; "they are stupid
things at the best. I am going down
to Mrs. Willey's to bid the children
good-by. Will you go along with
me?"
"We are going there, too," thev
said. Aud so the trio moved on to
gether. Thc good-by's were just a*,
merry and frank ns everything else
that the gay bachelor had a hand In,
and soon he went away, with many
kind wishes following him.
As he passed out of sight, turning
at the last instant to throw kisses to
the children, Mabel Ray, one of the
girls who had been talking of him,
said, discontentedly to bis sister:
"I don't see what he wants to go
away for; I should think he might
stay here all the time-I don't think
he minds the cold."
"No, said his sister; "he docs not
mind the cold, it is true, because ne
has been accustomed to it since child
hood."
"Then what does he go for?" plead
ed the girl. And the lady, drawing
ber work bnsket nearer her, said:
"I wonder if you two girls would
like me to tell you a story. I will
send the children out to piny and we
will have a quiet time by ourselves."
The girls signifying their delighted
assent, nestled down in the sunshine
to listen to the story.
"It is all about brother Ben," the
lady said, half apologetically. And
the girls, like two children, answered:
"Oh, goody! we want to know so
much about him."
"Fanny says he has no heart," said
Mabel, "but I tell her he has a merry
soul and lots of courage, and that is
nearly as good, Isn't lt?"
"No heart!" The lady repented the
words in a curious, dreamy voice.
"Well, let me tell you my story, and
then you shall judge for yourselves
whether he has any heart.
.Twenty years ago Ben was a boy,
counting his first score of years on
life's great dial, and a happier, more
light-hearted, thoughtless j fellow
never lived. He wns kind to every
body anti mude friends everywhere.
You remember the old house down
in the hollow, surrounded with great
elm trees and wide, green fields. It
was Squire Mnrsden's old place then,
and there was not a handsomer resi
dence in town. He had but one
daughter, you know-Minnie Mars
den, a pretty girl, sweet tempered,
childlike and affectionate. She and
Ben had been school children to
gether, and perfectly devoted to each
otheP ever since they could go alone.
They grew up and entered society
here, and their love for each other ;
was so much a recognized fact as that
of any married couple Ul the hlftcts
I think Ben would have died for her
any h our. so perfect and self-forgetting'
waa his devotion-. But when he
was 22 ?hd she i&, and they th?
prettiest couple yo\i ever ? to
gether, there HWi ? Granger to this
placed kdn?some, stylish man, with
plenty of airs and graces that he had
brought from far away New York ami
seemed delighted to make an exhibi
tion of in our little seaport towri-.
He came upon official Uttslues&^Soin^
thing cutmectwi With" the Otistom
Ho?se^fttiU did not hc?tote , tb an
nounce ?s frcq?eii'tiy as possible that,
he was American ??n'sul somewhere,
had been appointed and approved by
high oQicio! authority and was to
lenv* soon on a brilliant tour that
1 was to bring bim much fame and
honor, not to speak of wealth, which
was a secondary consideration to him?
"Squire Marsden wu* Immensely
flnttered by Ute attention? tb 18
magnificent minister plenipotentiary
paid to lils pretty daughter, and
when the mab, perfectly infatuated:
asked for her banu* lh hiarrlage, that
she might ricc?lhpany him on his won
derful tour, the old man gave him his
blessing and sanction nt once.
"He declared Ben had never said
anything to him about marrying hlh
daughter, and I think it tillite possitil?
that he never had-, ?0r the}' had taken
every! Ul?ig fco much as a matter or
course that they probably had not
paused to put lt iu formal words,
thinking that it was sufficiently well
understood without such formality-.
"So when thc old hitt? told Minnie
what ho expected Of her she looked at
him lb amazement. I think the girl
was flattered by the stranger's atten
tions, but she had not thought that
anything could possibly Interfere With
her love for Ben, and elie had ho
thought of giving him ubi
"Ben \V?8 proud and sensitive.
He knew that Squire Marsden was
wealthy and was inclined to look
down upon his poorer neighbors; still
he had put up with this, as he could,
for Minnie's sake; but now, when the
old man came and told him that but
for him Minuie cbuld mnke a brilliant
match and be received in foreign
courts as the first American lady or
the land Ben hunte Up his mind in an
instant and expressed lt accordingly.
"Minnie is the dearest thing on
earth to me,' he said, 'but heaven
knows I will never stand in the woy
of her happiness.' And so, with bite
brief farewell, lie left heh
"I saw them together that night i
heard him talking with her In tones
that he tried vainly to make calm and
firm. I knew that with Minnie Mars
den he gave up all hope for the
future. I saw him hold her in his
anns for one minute, and then-ah,
well. I ought not to talk of this to you,
girls; but Ben went away and soon
afterward Minnie was married.
"If her bright dream of pride and
wealth and foreign courts was ever
realized there was certainly no evi
dence of lt in the pale, sad face Bile
brought back to our native village
scarcely a year later. She went
home to her father's with her hus
band. He proved to be au idle, specu
lative mau, his head always full of
some great plan-some magnliicent
prospect-soon to bo realized. He In
volved the old man In speculations
that took his broad acres to liquidate,
and then bc died, leaving Minnie no
home and no fortune.
"It was then that Ben came back
here, and I told him how poor Minnie
and her children were. He gave me
money for them, but he refused to
see her. He has never seen her
since; but every year, when her hus
band goes to Wushington and she
comes back here with her little ones,
Ben gives me money to see that she
is well cared for during the winter,
and he goes away, that he may not
see her face."
The two girls were weeping quietly
as the lady ceased to speak, and
Fannie, clasping Mabel's i:und, whis
pered softly:
"He has a heart."
? "Yes. he has." said Mabel, stifling
u quick little sob In her throat.
She did not guess why Mrs. Willey
had told them this story.

SEARCH-L?CHTS?
New Vork Firemen Une Them l? Save
tire? oil Dm U KIRht?.
TllG hew portable search-light that
the lire department in New ?ork has
adopted for saving life on dark nights,
and when smoke obscures the vision
of the firemen, has already had.. Its
trial, and proved Its serviceableness.
The search-lights are placed on either
side of the driver's seat, and, iWtn
18-lnch barrels and 0000 cahtlle-p?wcf
each, they throw B?ch tt powerful
glare upon a burning building that
nothing except brick Walls and wood
en partitions ban stop lt. The lights
penetrate thc deepest smoke that rolls
up from a burning building, and the
firemen have all the light they need
to work by. By the old method fire
men engaged on dark nights In res
cuing people in burning buildings had
to depend upon the feeble glare of the
lanterns they carried. More than
once a brave fireman has uselessly
sacrificed his life In searching rooms
In the dark that contained uo one; but
rather than risk losing one life every
room of a burning building must be
searched. By means of the new elec
tric lights the whole Interior of a
burning building ls made as plain as
daylight, and firemen cnn tell at a
glance from the window-ledge wheth
er their presence 1B needed Inside.
Thc lights are made detachable, Bo
they eau be taken from the engine and
set up on standards. They are also
provided with 200 feet of flexible con
duct ing-cables, which enables the fire
men to run thc search-lights out on
a pier, or even into a building. One
of the great fields for usefulness of
this new apparatus ?3 lu lighting up
the interior of boats when on fire.
When a ship at the pier gets on fire
thc darkness in the hold makes lt
dillicult for thc firemen to control the
flames. Dense volumes of smoke fur
ther obscure the point where the fire
Is burning, and sometimes ship and
cargo are lost simply because the fire
men aro unable to locate the exact
place of thc fire. The portable search
light, which will soon be re-enforced
by similar Incandescent lights for
carrying in the hand, will make fire
fighting at night a much easier matter
than in the past. Heretofore fire
safeguards have been considered
chiefly for the public; it ls a wise move
now to consider the firemen.-Har

Mining Under the Sea in Spain.
The great zinc works of Arnao,
Spain, obtain 50,000 tons of coal a
year from a coal mine, which ex
tends under the Bay of Biscay. On
the sea side of the shaft, working has
to be carried on with thc utmost pre?
caution nnd very slowly. The water
tightness of the submarine portion of
the mine ls due. not only to the slow
ness with which the work ls carried
on but also to the existence of cer
beds of shale which crack and fissure
when pressure comes on to the roof,
and then swell as the sea water fil
ters through.
Unlike most of the Asturias coal,
which ls friable, dull and iridescent,
the Arnao coal, especially that from
the portion of thc mine below the sea,
Is hard, brilliant and whitish, like
that from thc Saar coal field, this
whitish tint being due to scales of cal
cium sulphate, and sometimes there
ls an appearance of concentric rings
on the surface of the coal pieces.

she will embroider later in silk and
keep as a souvenir of the occasion.

Things were the reverse of dull for
a quarter of an hour one morning dur
ing the recent dog show, says the Chi
cago Inter Ocean. A lone black cat
started the excitement of the day at a
comparatively early hour by wander
ing into the big armory and attempt
ing to inspect the canines. Before the
cat had been in the building three min
utes a solemn-faced bloodhound
caught a glimpse of him. For the
fraction of a second the bloodhound
glared at ti-u intruder. Then he un
closed his ponderous voice, and m less
time than lt takes to tell about lt
every dog in the place was on the
alert. They pulled and tugged at their
chains; they barked, yelped and growl
ed, and in various other ways demon
strated to their keepers that they were
in anything but a pleasant frame of
mind.
Heedless of tho turmoil, the black
cat showed hL nerve by walking down
the aisle and carefully inspecting his
friends, the enemy. Finally the dus
ky feline was captured by an attend
ant and removed, but the dogs did not
recover from the Rhock for several
hours, and as a result were snappy
and churlish for the remainder of the
day.
