As Iowa judge has decided that when
a footpad draws a revolver on you at

holds yon up, he cannot lie charged with

A Dkxtkkoi* French feat is that ol
grafting hair along the foreheads of wo¬
men with whom nature has been cruel in
arranging lor the hair to grow too far
har k on the forehead nr when the hair
fpririgs in an ugly, irregular line, says
the Boston Traveler From other parts
ot the head short new sprouting hairs
are delicately extracted and replanted
along the top ol an uncomely forehead.
The inventor of the new process clings
boldly to the argument that no woman
can tver cxpict to lay any claim to
beauty whose forehead is ungracefully
draped, and that, of all beautiful women,
never found a face that for half it*
charm did not depend upon the lovely
framing ol the forehead. Modirn train
ing lias enlarged the sirs of women’s
heads nearly half an inch all round, anil
added a hall inch of “bald space” to her
forehead’* depth. The increase in the
head’s sizs has taken from perfect femi¬
nine grace, and the widening of the fore¬
head from eyebrow to hair roots lias
nearly destroyed I he low Madonna
browed women, the type of most per¬
fect feminine loveliness.
Essentials to Success in Poultry Raising.
I am thoroughly convinced ol two es¬
sentials to make poultry raising and
keeping a success. One is to keep the
fonts free from lino and vermin, and the
otter is to have a dry, welt ventilated
building. Lice ur.d dampnevs cause
nine-tenths of all the trouble in raising
poultry, either I n meat or eggs. (Ian
.you at all times have a dry house with
loam bottom? t say ”m !” from expert
imce. In moist weather it will gather

witi'r can enter at side* or roof. Tbs
same with send or gravel, anil the mine

gold can be separated without the great

few weeks and are hopeful that they will
send much more in the near future. For
the present they are working tbe mines
on ■ small scale, having only five stamps
