NATURAL COSMETICS.
A List of Vegetable Products Good For
Teeth and Complexion.
Almonds are very soothing to the
skin, and many foreign women use
crushed almonds instead of soap for
their face and hands to keep them
fair, soft and white. Oil of almonds
also may be rubbed into the skin at
night and is better than cold cream,
especially if really pure oil of alm
onds, and not a mere imitation. As
for the so called almond soap it is
very rare that the almond has any
part in it. It somewhat resembles
almond in its odor, but this odor
comes from benzole, which is taken
from tar oil and other substances not
injurious to the skin, but not so
beneficial as real almond powder, a
“nut quantity” of which forms a
paste in the water and is a splendid
beautifier.
Basil, though not a cosmetic plant,
is a skin beautifier because it puri
fies the air wherever it grows, and
pure air is a skin beautifier. In In
dia this plant is sacred to Krishna
and is named after the nymph be
loved by Krishna. It was he, in
fact, who changed her into the
plant. It is also sacred to Vishnu,
and necklets and rosaries are made
of its stalks and roots. No Hindoo
house is without it. It absorbs the
carbonic acid of the air and gives
forth its disinfecting, vivifying oxy
gen.
Benzoin is a genuine cosmetic of
nature. It is the gum of the ben
zoin tree. The best benzoin comes
from Siam. It is the frankincense
of the Jews and the incense of Ro
man Catholics, Hindoos, Buddhists,
Mohammedans, etc. The Chinese
fumigate their houses with it, and,
owing to its grateful perfume, va
nilla pomade and pastilles are made
with it. As a cosmetic it has no su
perior. A few drops added to water
makes what is called “virginal
milk, ” which, used as a lotion, keeps
the skin wondrously soft and fair
and prevents premature wrinkles.
Cedar wood in powder or as a tinc
ture is excellent for the teeth and
imparts an agreeable perfume to the
breath.
Citron is another substance that
can be used with advantage to the
face and hands instead of soap. No
toilet table, indeed, ought to bo
without it, and if the fingers and
nails are well rubbed in a quarter of
citron every time the hands are
washed they will never require the
manicure’s aid. During the day,
indeed, it is better to rub the hands
with citron than to use water.
Cucumber is another of nature's
own cosmetics. Never throw away
cucumber peelings. Boil them and
use the water for the toilet. Here
also a slice of cucumber may be used
instead of soap, with advantage to
the skin. Dill water is as good as
rosewater for the complexion, and
for some skins perhaps better. It
makes the shin paler.
Still another of nature’s cosmetics
is the elder flower, famous for its
cooling qualities. It makes an ex
quisite wash for the face and an ex
cellent oil for the hair.
Lavender is not precisely a cos
metic, yet a few drops in the toilet
water are very refreshing. The
hygienic virtues of lavender are
well known.
All spices are air purifiers and air
coolers. It is a fact that very few
epidemics visit places filled with the
perfumes of spices—-cloves, mace,
cinnamon, etc. A room perfumed
with spices and eucalyptus remains
cool on the hottest summer day and
defies disease resulting from impure
air.
There is no better antiseptic in
nature than musk—real musk, of
course. The Chinese use it also to
dye their hair and eyebrows.—Phil
adelphia Press.

A GORY SNAKE TALE.
The Captain Barely Escaped and Thea
Saw a Wonderful Battle.
Over on the reclaimed sugar lancfe
at St. Cloud are found some of the
biggest snakes, rattlers and mocca
sins in this section of the state. While
Captain Winter was riding down a
path near the creek a big reptile
sprang at him from beside the path,
catching his leather boot. The ser
pent’s fangs could not penetrate the
leather, but hung there, dangling.
The captain was greatly startled,
but bent down and cut at the reptile
with his riding whip, breaking its
neck. Almost instantly one of the
tree snakes that are found in this
section dropped down from an over
hanging branch and coiled around
his neck, and almost at the same in
stant another rattler on the other
side of the horse made a spring, fas
tening on his heavy corduroy trou
sers.
The horse set off on a run and the
captain was unseated, being thrown
into the middle of the bushes. The
big rattler was thrown off by his
fall, but the tree snake still hung
. around his neck, and its folds grad
i ually tightened, choking him. The
. captain seized its throat with his
j right hand and with his left he
■ tried to untwist its coils. The snake
! was a big one, and he had a terrible
struggle with it. Again and again
1 it would force its big head into his
| face, its wicked red eyes gleaming
with malice and rage, while its fork
ed tongue ran out, and its sickening
breath almost overcame him. Coil
after coil he hurriedly unwound
from around his neck, relieving his
breathing until at last he was en
tirely free. His grasp on its throat
became tighter, and he strangled it,
having no weapon with him. As
its folds relaxed he cast it from him.
While waiting he heard a hissing
by his side, and, glancing around,
he saw two reptiles coiled, almost
ready to spring. A -third hiss on
the other side showed him a rattler
in the act of springing. The captain
jumped for his life, and as he did so
the snakes sprang at the same time,
and by a funny coincidence they
missed the captain and struck each
other in midair. They fell in a con
vulsive heap, fighting each other
j tooth and nail. The captain had
sprung to a tree stump and stood
there watching the strange combat.
One of the serpents had caught the
other in its fangs, and the wounded
one was striking viciously at the
other two. It was a three cornered
fight of a most vicious and deter
mined character. The snakes would
coil up and spring at each o’ther, in
flicting wounds,- their furious eyes
blazing fire, while their hissing and
rattling'made a terrible din. Final
ly one of them fell over in its death
agony, the poison having worked
into its system, and shortly after
that both the others also fell, writh
ing.
The captain did notwaittosee the
end, but with vigorous leaps gain
ed the path and started after his
runaway horse, which he found half
a mile farther on, and the captain
mounted and came to town.—Buf

\ English Restaurants.
I Americans when they first come
I over to this country can rarely quite
1 tumble to the peculiarities of our
English restaurants. A wealthy
Yankee friend of mine who was over
here a little while ago to complete
the formation of an important lim
ited liability cornjiany thought it
would be a good thing to invite all
those concerned in London to lunch
eon one day. Accordingly he went
to the manager of one of the most
celebrated of our fashionable res
taurants and after engaging a pri
vate room gave instructions that no
expense should be spared to make
the meal a gastronomical success,
the only proviso being that he
should select his own wines.
Everything passed off splendidly
until the cigar and coffee stage was
reached, and the host asked that his
bill might be brought to him. He
assured me that he had never felt
smaller in his life than when the
head waiter, in the hearing of the
assembled company, approached
him and in a loud voice asked, “And
how many breads have you had,
sir?” “Just as though I had been
busily engaged in counting up how
many rolls my guests had eaten!” ,
was the pertinent remark my friend
made on recounting the experience
to me afterward. Os course in
America no charge is made at all
for bread. Why is the custom not
generally introduced over here?—

LOOKING AFTER CUBA.
It is the present intention of the
administration to send to Cuba as a
garrison force fcr the island 40,000
troops in addition to the force now
in Santiago. Within two weeks
orders will be issued for the move
ment to Cuba of the first 10,000 of
the permanent garrison.
These troops will be followed
quickly by others until the entire
force of 40,000 has been established
on the Island. It is not the intention
of the administration to await the
evacuation of the island by the
Spanish forces before sending United
States troops to Cuba. The indi
cations now are that it may be
several months before the Cuban
con missioners complete their work.
Quite naturally, a considerable
number of troops will remain on the
island until the arrangements for the
relinquishment of Spain’s sovereignty
over it formally have been concluded.
The rainy season in Cuba is nearly
at an end and the most delightful
season of the year on the island is
about to begin.

A CRITICAL TIME
DURING THE BATTLE OF SAN
TIAGO.
Sick or Well, a Rush Night and Day.
The Packers at the Battle of Santiago
de Cuba Were all Heroes. Their He
roic Efforts in (wetting Ammunition
and Rations to the Front Nnre.l the
Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack train No. 3,
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on July
23, says: “We all had diarrhea in more or
less violent form, and when we landed
we had no time to see a doctor, foi it
was a case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and rations, but thanks to
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, I sin
cerely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect savior of
our army, for if the packers had been un
able to work there would have been no
way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in a supply of
this medicine for our pack train before
we left Tampa, and I know in four cases
it absolutely saved life.”

FAME.
Once there was a poor old poet
Who had dreamed of winning fame.
Somewhere was a laurel growing
h[en would wreathe about his name.
If—O God, life's “ifs, ” whose anguish
Makes the heart dumb with its ache!
Is it—is it any wonder
That hearts bleed and break?
This poor poet, hungry, starving,
For the praise he sought to win,
Saw fame's doors swing wide to welcome
Many a younger brother in,
While he waited at the portal,
Where his entrance was denied,
Till his heart broke with his sorrow—
Broke, and so he died!
Who can read fate's riddle for me?
Caring nothing more for fame,
Suddenly the world was ringing
With the poor old poet's name,
And men reared a shaft of marble
Over him and carved beneath
Sculptured grief his name and crowned it
With a laurel wreath.
Yesterday I heard some children
Who were playing in the street
One of tho dead poet’s poems
In their merry games repeat,
And I thought it sweeter tribute
To the poor old poet, dead,
Than the praise of those who gave a
Stone when asked for bread!

The Real Hero.
The Array and Navy Journal has
I di'Covered the real hero of the war.
It says:
“The absolute, real, undoubted
■ hero of this war is not Admiral
Dewey, sinking all the Spanish fleet
at Manila, nor Hobson, sinking a
‘ portion of the American fle«t at
Sar-lisgo, nor Shafter driving out
the fleet of Cervera and capturing an
army double that of his own, ncr
Schley sending Cervera to de
struction, nor twenty others we
could name, but it is Ensign Curtain,
! landing at Ponce, and with inimitable
cheek sending his ultimatum to the
i commander of the Spanish forces at
Ponce by telephone ! Os all the
i astonishing incidents of this war
nothing for novelty approaches this,
■and Mr. Curtain should go down
lin history as the originator of the
“hello” method of reaching military
results. The illimitable gall of this
| youth deserves to be crystalized in
history. Murat and Lannes, by their
capture of the tete du pont at
Vienna, h ive been handed down as
the typical Gascons, but Mr. Curtain
has outbraved them all. This Jour-
i nal, which expects to chronicle the
I official reports of the battle of
Armageddon, hardly hopes to record
anything hereafter which, for pure im
pudence, will exceed this occurrence.
The only thing which could rival it
would be for another ensign to send
a district messenger boy to Sagasta
with an ultimatum to be answered in
j fifteen minutes.”
Copper Colored
Splotches.
There is only one cure for Contagious
Blood Poison —the disease which has
; completely baffled the doctors. They
are totally unable to cure it, and direct
their efforts toward bottling the poison
up in the blood and concealing it from
view. S. S. S. cures the disease posi
tively and permanently by forcing out
every trace of the taint.
I I was afflicted with a terrible blood disease,
which was in spots at first, but afterwards
f spread all over my body.
These soon broke out into
sores, and it is easy to
imagine the suffering I
endured. Before I be
came convinced that the
doctors could do no good,
I had spent a hundred
dollars, which was really
thrown away. I then
tried various patent
medicines, but they did
not reach the disease.
When I had finished my
first bottle of 8. 8. 8. I
was greatly improved
and was delighted with
the result. The large red splotches on my
chest began to grow paler and smaller, and
before long disappeared entirely. I regained
my lost weight, became stronger, and my ap
petite greatly improved. I was soon entirely
well, and my skin as clear as a piece of glass.

IHIFFUGTIOM THAT MmW i BUNDLE OF NERVES.
Mrs. Jams' Arthur, of Spokaso, Suffered Excruciating
Agony -lUr Condition Creates Such ClscussioD.
Prom the Spokesman-Review, Spokane, Wash.
Mrs. James Arthur, of 1021 Augusta Ave
nue, Spokane, Wash., who suffered excru
ciating agony from rheumatism has created
much discussion among her many friends, ;
She told a, reporter the following story of
her sufferings and cure:
“From August, 1895, to the following
January, I suffered from rheumatic pains. '
For weeks at a time the pain was so excru
ciating I was nearly crazy. Night after
night I walked the floor unable to sleep.
From a healthy woman weighing about 160
pounds I became a weak, thin bundle of I
nerves, unable almost to perform any ordin ■
ary household duties. Every time we had
a spell of bad weather the awful agony
would begiu. j
“Prior to August, 1895, I had doctored
with Dr. Power. He said 1 had sciatica and
muscular rheumatism. He gave me some
medicine that seemed to do me good. Any
way it stopped the pains at that time, but in
August they came again worse than ever.
I did not go to him again thinking he had
made some mistake in his diagnosis of my
case. One day while glancing over a San
Francisco paper, I noticed an article regard
ing Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People
and that they contained in a condensed form
ail the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore shat
tered nerves. The article contained an ac
count of a ease similar to mine that-had been
cured and I decided to try the pills. I went
to the wholesale drug store, the Spokane
Drug Company’s place, at the corner of
Sprague and Howard and bought a box.
“ The pills are wonderful. I took two
doses and the pain ceased. My limbs apd
feet were swollen and the agony was in
tense, but after taking the pills, the swell
ing went down and the pains ceased. I con-

strength aud a better appetite, which was
I poor nefore.
“ My lady friends who knew of my suffer

I in me, aud frequently asked how it had been

j thought necessary tor over a year before I
told them. Now several of my friends are
using Dr. Williams’ Piuk Pills on my re

“It is marvelous. I would not be without

scrubbing and washing. She knew I had

astonished at seeing me thus engaged. When
I explained to her how Dr. M ilTiams’ Pink
