The Care of the Eyes.
A great many of the mysterious
headaches with which women are af
flicted must be put down to over
strained eyes; and this kind of head
ache can only be cured by giving the
eyes a thorough rest, and when a cure
has been effected great care In the use
of the eyes In future Is Indispensable.
Heading, writing or sewing in a dim
and flickering light must be given up,
and the common practice of attempting
to read in a Jolting train or omnibus
must also be discarded. The eyes
should never be used too long at a
time, say Woman's Life, and when muc
eye work Is necessary brief rests and
bathings in hot water should be re
sorted to, if the dreaded headache is
to be kept at a distance.
President's Wife In Russet.
Mrs. Roosevelt has yielded to the
golden brown mode, and her latest
evening gow is of an exquisite bronze
satin, which Nhlmmers in gaslight like
the rays of tin) setting sun. It is em
bellished with heavy Oriental lace with
the design outlined in golden and
gemmed threads, and a most artistic
touch is a cluster of autumn leaves,
merely flecked with Jewels, which
make a half chaplet for the hair.
Bronze slippers with a big tuscan gold
buckle are Just the thing for such a
toilet Mrs. Roosevelt wore this gown
at her now famous musicals, at which
the Indian opera "Poia" was produced,
and she never looked more girlish and
charming. Another effective costume
la of black broadcloth with a cutaway
coat and embroidered linen blouse.
The skirt clears the ground by a good
three inches and is untrimmed save by
three wide bias folds. The coat is lined
with grass green satin, and a hint of
this color shows on the collar and
cuffs. New York Press.
r Girl Steeplejack.
A girl 17 years of age has accom
plished the extraordinary feat of as
cending a church spire 260 feet high in
the teeth of a gale of wind.
The steeplejack had undertaken to
ascend the spire of All Saints', Here
rVird thn hlehest in the west of Eng
land, when Miss Elsia Holns, the daugh
' ter of one of the church wardens, vol
unteered to accompany him.
The ascent was made by means of a
steeplejack's cradle. In spite of the
force of the wind and the swaying of
ths cradle, the girl, says the steeple
Jack, was remarkably cool all through
tha norl loin ascent and descent, says
Home Chat. Needless to say, the spire
had never been ascenaea Derore Dy any
excent male climbers.
The ascent was made on market
Anv and a exeat crowd watched in
thrilling suspense every movement of
Mia awivlnz cradle. Traffic was en
tirely blocked by the crowd until the
girl had gained the summit, descended
again and reached the ground safe
and unharmed.
Hoped It Wasn't SO.
Miss Mary N. Murfree, the novelist,
who is known as Charles Egbert Crad
dock, has had some amusing experien
ces with the unlettered mountain peo
niA nf thn smith. Some of these moun-
V ' - - -
talneers are unbelievably ignorant of
either sacred or profane history. On
one occasion when Mis Murfree stopped
at a wayside nouse lor a glass or. wa
ter she found a party of old women
stolidly engaged in patching clothes.
With characteristic hospitality they
asked her to be seated and rest her
self before continuing on her Journey.
A few Questions made it Dlaln to Miss
Murfree that the old women were hope
lessly ignorant, so she told tnem tne
i story of the crucifixion. As she but
mlaed. there was not a eleam of rec
oniition as she told the simple tale,
but its pathos almost moved one of
her listeners to tears, "You say they
done Him like that fur nothin' morn'n
lest tryin to save 'em?" she asked
anxiously. "Yes," said Miss Murfree.
'' The the old woman leaned over,
stroked the novelist's knee, and said
"Well, stranger, let us hope that hit

You wouldn't pay railway fare to anybody who hap

You shouldn't feel bound to take the first cigar that's
offered to you, but only the one that's plainly marked with
the stamp of responsibility the "Triangle A."
You. know what you're getting when
You buy a "Triangle A" Cigar
What do you know about the nameless and irre-,
sponsible cigars off ered you ?
The "Triangle A" is a guarantee of cigar quality
before you buy. '
It's plain proof that we are willing and anxious to
have the American Cigar Company's cigars judged strictly
on their merits.
The "Triangle A" has a wider meaning than
that of a mere identification mark:
One Side stands for knowing how. v
Another Side stands for equipment.
And all that would never be worth a last year's calendar to 'yw?
if the third side of the "Triangle A" did not stand for the disposition
of the American Cigar Company to give the smoker all the benefit of
its cigar knowledge and cigar-producing equipment.
Therefore The American Cigar Company is taking this occasion
to assure you that its "Triangle A" is a public sign of its definite,!
positive and unchangeable intention to oifer you always the best cigars
that its unequalled equipment and experience are capable of producing.!
We manufacture a large number of brands of different blends tol
suit individual tastes. "
