Short Cuts
To Drain Silver.—Perforate the bot
tom of a pound baking powder can
with many holes. When washing
knives, forks and spoons have one oc
more of such cans in the rinsing pan
and place each article upright in It as
it is washed. Pour boiling water over
all, remove to another pan or dish
for a moment, then place on the stove
ihelf to finish drying. No wiping is
required.
To Repair Wall Paper.—To cover a
soiled or torn spot on wall paper
which has become at all faded, take a
piece of new paper of the same pat
tern and expose it to sunlight until It
Is faded to the same degree as that on
the walls. The patch will then bo
practically invisible.
A Great Convenience.—Separate the
leaves of a newspaper and cut in
halves, pierce the pad of leaves near
one end and hang them over a nail as
near as possible to the kitchen table
or cabinet. Use them to slip under
kettles or anything which would soil
the table. They will be handy also for
other uses too numerous to mention.

Play Corner
Brazil Nuts.
The Brazil nut Is a native, as Its
name Indicates, of foreign countries.
The Brazil nut tree grows to a height
of fifty to eighty feet and Is a ma
jestic ornament of the woods. But
sometimes, If a traveler is not careful,
he is bombarded by the mischievous
tree, for the shell or fruit Is as large
as a child's head and Is so hard that a
blow from It would hurt badly. In
side of these cases or shells are the
three cornered Brazil nuts that are sold
here.

Th? eighth' grades and the ffost two
years ot high) school work are un
der the tutelage of Misa IBenthein,
principal of the) Skagway school.
Twice a wee's the pupils of the
school are brought foirethetr In the

t'on to an appreciation of music.
On Friday, one of the rooms enter
U'in the rest o£ the BChool la a
short program of some sort.
The manual training department
anpeals to the boys. The attend
arce in this classi will average
aboyt seventeen pupils. L. H. Ped
ersen takes a delight, in explaining
to the boys the art of making flow
er boxes, book cases, ironing board
aud miscellaneous articles of use.
In o'her words a bojt after attend

mnVo things useful for the

waon it comes to a question of con
structing articles.

A ceep in the sowing classes) "will

tots ranging from nine to twelve
years of age ara deftly handling ^
needle learning tho various plain,
and fancy stitches which will later
make them good home keepers.
All iu all, the work done by tho )
boys and girls in the school is com
mendable. The work pf the| teach
erg is likewise commendable; With
all working for th«> common aim,
the advancement of the social oen
tcr this should prove a banner
year for the Skagway schools.
Difference In Complexions.
The difference In the complexions of
people Is due to the varying amounts
of pigment or coloring materials In
the cells of the skin. Very light peo
ple have very Utile pl.^rment; very dark
people, those with dark eyes and black
hair, have a great deal of this coloring
material in their cells. A great many
people are neither light nor very dark.
They have loss than the dark complex
loned people and more than the light
complexioned people. When the hair
turns gray It is because the pigment
has disappeared. As this is due to the
loss of this coloring material, dark com
plexioned people turn gray sooner than
light complexioned people. The struc
ture of the skin showing how these
cell are made In layers can be seen by
examining the skin with a microscope.
Water Birds.
Water birds, singular as ft seems,
are the only ones whose skins never
by any chance get touched by water.
So long as they are alive and Ion*
after they are dead they float with an
air chamber all round their bodies,
cunningly contrived of waterproof
feathers closely overlapping each oth
er. Thus. In a sense, water birds may !
be distinguished from all others by
the fact that they never wash, though
we can hardly blame tbem for that,
because If water could penetrate be
tween their feathers the poor things
would never be dry.

"Period furnishing Is splendid when
Intelligently done," said a decorator.
"A regency drawing room, an empire
dining room, a Charles IL library—a
house so furnished Is delightful.
"But you must buy your period
things from dealers who know their
business. Some dealers don't. I once
heard a lady say to a dealer:
•"This chair Is Louis XVI., but my
drawing room, you know, Is Louis
XIV. Would that chair go in It. then?1
