The fact that dimples occur hw quently in the cheek ity due to the com- parative irregllarity ot the length ot the tskin-f1brm, of this part of the body. These are due to the fact that the fibres which lie beneath the outside skin, and help to hold lt firmly in place, are of varying lengths and run in all directinna. Occasionally these fibrea are too short in one spot, and pull the skin, thus forming the dimple. When we speak of dimples, we think usually ot those in the cheek, the ln- dentatlons which appear when a per- son smiles. But it should be remem- bered that dimples are also to be found in other parts of the body. Babies, tor example, have dlmpled el- bows and knees. while infants who are plump often have several on their backs and shoulders. What Causes Dimples?

It is claimed that three (arms work. ed in the locality of Cobourg, Ont., have produced record crops. On No. 1 the output was 600 barrels of pears. 300 barrels of Northern Spies. and 500 baskets ot cherries. No. 2 produced 1tle,000 pounds of beef cattle, 140 tons of hay, and 300 barrels ot apples. while No. 3 produced 8,000 barrels ot apples, 1.000 baskets ot cherries, 2,000 boxes of cherries and 200 barrels of pears. These figures do not include much grain produced on the farms. Recently a new record for a grain moving train was created when a Canadian Puciilc engine pulled 110 fully loaded cars of wheat, comprising 165,000 bushels. castwurds towards the Great Lakes. The train was nine. tenths of a mile long and weighed ap- proximately GMIX tons, exclusive of the engine and the calmoee. The best marksman are usually those with grey or blue eyes.
