This of course is not the best way of doing yet froin soino cause or other, good, sufflicient or ot.herwise, it Is neverthe less done. The stubble, after the grain is out, should the weather be dry and warm, Is capable of reflecting the leat to such all extent as to endanger tie lives of trees, especially if they be -young. To avoId such a condition the stubble should be plowed under as soonl as possible a'ter tie gralti is harvested.

Each Indlian family possesses anyi number of (logs from eight to fifteen, atnd these animnals hellp thmemselves to the menat.

CosMETIcs.-Dootors, and chemists. - and physiologists, all unite 'in iaying s that there Is but one proper qostnetio o pure soap and water. Even 'scented - soap is obectionable, unless the smell of anl unhi al- skin Is to be hidden. s Complexion is dependent on the quality and quantity of the blood In the skin, I and the conidition of the cells of the skin, through which the blood is seen. -The way to Insure having a proper tquantity of healthy blood in the skin is to rise early, to be much in the open alir, especially during the hours of sun light, to avoid over-heated, artiflcially lighted, unventilated rooms, and to re rtire early to rest. To keep the cells which protect the surface of the skin in a healthy state, all that is necessary Is to wash the surface of the body with soap an d water only, or, in the case of soine delicate skins, which the alkali of most r,olps Irritates, with water alone. Whoever will attend to these direbtions will do all that can be don e to p eservo, its all ot,ht to try and pr serve, their skins iI Ihe most healthy and therefore beautiful conditions. It cannot be too etr6ngly asserted that ho cosmetic, wash, enamel, powder, paste or lotion, canl ever subvert the natural process of waste and repair which is ever taking place In our bodies, and which is part of ageieral law observed throughout animate nature, that every cell hias a limited period of Qx1stenee, equally as have all bodies composed of such cells."
