REDERICK JAMESON was slowly Pr learning the uncertainties of being an inventor, Now he had worked out the problem of the wireless tele- phone. Jameson waited impatiently for his application to go through. The pro- ceedings were unusually long. At last he went to the patent ofMfce to inquire. To his consternation he found that his fon had been anticipated by four hours and that the name of u celetrsted Inventor known to be In the pay c. the monopoly was attached te ihe art her tion, Half stunned with grief he turned to go away. An he was leaving the bulld- ing a woman followed him down the hand. “Be at the south entrance of the building at 1 o'clock. Important busi- ness." was what the paper said, Jame- son remembered the sweet-faced woman In the commissioner's office who had often answered his Inquiries. ‘At 4 o'clock he stood at the exit to the great department puliding. The writer of the first note was one of the first to come out. She spoke hurriedly. “I have some papers here which are very Imsortant to you." She drew them from her pocket. “They show that the application made by Terry in the matter of the wireless telephone was antedated forty-elght hours so as to precede yours. You musin't say where you got these. I suspected some- thing when I saw the division chief taking your papers from the files the day they were put in. Don't bring me Into this unless you have to. My name ts Mary Lincoln, Good-by.” On the following day Jameson ap- peared at the Commissioner's offlce and asked to see the Commissioner himself. The Commisstoner looked at the paper® “Evidently a substitution,” he sald, after sending for tho files, ‘The orige {nal Terry application comes in twenty- four hours after yours.” In five minutes the diviston chief man was standing pale and frightened before the Cunmiss'cner looking over the papers. Five minutes later his hall and sllpped a bit of paper into his|resignation was In the Commissioner's , hands. But before ho left the office he had learned that Mary Lincoln was the cause of hin exposure and had put the matter before the Commisstoner in such a way that her suspension was ordered. “Tam sorry,” said the Commissioner, “but removing the office files even for A good end Is too serious a matter to be overlooked. You should have re ported the case to me.” Jameson went back to the office to thank Mary Lincoln the next day. He haard of fee suspension, learned her address and called on her at her home. “You shall not suffer," he eall. “I will make you rich when my invention is sold, You shall have half of all I make by It.

MERE are many excellent formulos for face creams. I do not know which one you refer to, Was It this one? Take of almond ofl 4 ounces, sperma- cett 1 ounce, and white wax 1 ounce. Put the three Ingredients tn the inner receptacle of a custard boller, Warm by a gentle heat until the three in- gredlents are melted. Add 2 ounces of wool fat. Remove from the stove and turn into ar earthern bowl. Add very slowly 4 ounces of rose water and 1 tablespoonful of tincture of benzoin. The mixture must be stirred steadily, or beaten, If preferred. An egg beater 1s excellent for this purpose, and the rose water and benzoin are added drop by drop, oF at least very, very slowly. The cream must be tightly closed and kept in small open-mouthed jars, each with a separate cover. There are also many formulas for freckle removers, I give you one for a bleach which has been extremely suc- cessful: Bichloride of mercury, tn course pow- der, 12 rains; extract of witch hazel, 2 ounces: rose water, 2 ounces. Agitate until the mercury is dissolved. Mop over the face night and morning.

Dear Sra. 7yer: My hair ts very dry and I use consid- erable water on it. Kindly advise me If water Is beneficial or injurious to the hair, Also how often do you deem it advisable to wet and shampoo it? Fur- thermore would you recommend the use of some olly substance to keep the hair moist? “REX.” ATER la injurious except tn the form of a shampoo, You cannot do worse than to wet your hair daily. Water used in this way ruins the color of the hair in time and {s per- nictous in Sts effects. I do not recommend the use of hatr olls or pomades, If your scalp is In good condition you should not need any- thing of thie description. Scalp mas- sage will produce a normal circulation, If you cannot obtain scalp massage you can easily give yourself a very fair treatment. Wet the scalp with a good tonic and rub It in with the tps of the fingers, pressing deeply and rubbing briskly with a round motion. Do not be too herole, but vigorous friction ts the best way of obtaining a normal circulation of the skin and scalp. I give you a bair tonic which Is very good for dry hair: Phenic acid, 2 grams; tincture of nux vomica, 71-2 grams, tincture of red cinchuna, 30 grams; tincture of cantharides, 2 gram; Co- logne, 189 grama; sweet almond oll, © eral ‘Apply to the roots of the hair with a soft sponge once or twice a day, ‘This lotion is especially good for very dry hair. — HOW TO WEAR JEWELS.
