The Secret of Beauty. “The most helpful and agreeable bath is that of tepid water,” writes Ruth Ashmore io the August Ladies* Home Journal. “Few people can stand abeolutely cold baths, and do matter bow strong one^may be such a bath should not be indulged in unless a thorough rubbing be taken after ward. To speak plainly, it must be remembered that while a cold bath may be more or less invigorating it is not cleansing. I can easily understand the desire of every woman to have a clear, beautiful akin, but I confess to being provoked when I think of the amount ol money spent on lotions, creams and powders to be applied ex ternally, and which have nothing like as good effect upon the skin as a tepid bath with good soap taken al least once a week The condition of the akin depends almost entirely upon the care given to the general health Tbe girl wbo is up late at night, gives no care to her diet, indulges in various stimulants, bathes but seldom, and exercises less, is cei lain to have either a dull, muddy looking skin, or one covered with disagreeable looking black and red spots. One should avoid many sweets and much pastry, and Dot allow herself to become a slave either to tea or coffee any more than she would to some vicious drag or strong stimulant. She should also remember that, unless she is in good condition internally, she will be any thing but a pleasant object to look upon externally.” Bucklea’s Arnica Salve- THE BEST BALVE in the world for Cuts, Bruises, Boras, Ulcers, Balt Rheum Fever Sores, Tetter, Chapped Hands, Chilblains, Corns, and all Skin Eruptions, and positively cores Piles, or no pay re quired.

Taking bis eue from a murder In vestigation In Jamestown, N.

Dr. Chauvenna|s says: “Her eyes were open when the death blow was given and focused upon tbe murderer, who, bending over bar, dealt the bludgeon. blow that killed. Even twenty-four boars after death tbe silhouette of the door of her room, toward which ebe was facing as the death blow came, was partly discerni ble to the scientific eye. “Tbe local conditione were such as to preserve the picture of the murder er for at least eight or ten hours. Tbe dimly lighted room, tbe position of tbe bead and eyes, shaded from the gas light and day light, all were favor able conditions Tbe eyes of tbe dead woman were etrong and in good health, tending to give even a better photo graph. “Near lhe foot pl tbe bed the shad ow of tbe dark object, In general out lines lhe figure of a man, was discern!- ble *and the eligbtly lighted shadow of tbe upper portion of the body estab lished tbe fact that he was in hie shirt, without coat or waistcoat, at lhe time of the crime.

And tfca Stortltag Maw. Was Mot Itaowa Until Aftai nerd. A cyclist whom we will call Baxter was strolling along the avenue when he noticed a pretty girl in a neat cycling costume standing by a tandem. She had her back turned to him, but he saw die wore a trim costume, had a neat ankle and a nicely arranged lot of hair. Bax ter is very part’eniar about a girl’s hair. This girl lu«. bed so attractive that he paused. There was something pa thetic in her attitude, he thought. Waa she waiting far a cavalier to join her on the tandem? A wild idea entered Baxter’s head. He would do a daring thing. He walked up to the girl. She turned a frank, merry face on him as he approached. “Pardtm me,” be laughingly said, “but are you locking for an accompa nist?” and he pointed to the tandem. “Well,” she smilingly answered, “now that you mention it, I guess I am. ** A moment later they were whirling np the street. When it began to grow dark, they turned back. "My tandem?” cried the girl “ Why, it ian’t mv tandem. ” "Not your tandem?” shouted Baxter. “ Whose is it, then?” "Why,” said the girl, "I thought it was yours” - - "Heavens* no!” groaned Baxter. "But you acted as if it was yours,” said the girt. i* What shall we do?” moaned the girl. "Take it back,” said Baxter. So they rode back in alienee, and when they were about a block away the girl said: "I guess I’ll step here.” Leaving the tandem as near to the place where he saw it as he could, he scuttled away in the darkness. —Cycling Gazette. TWO HUMOROUS BROTHERS. They Won Wsgen on the Strength of Their Own Homeliness. Many years ago there were two broth ers, named Joel and Jonathan, who were famous throughout Wayne county, Ind., because they were both such frights. One day they were on their way to Cincinnati by wagon in the days of the old canal. The wagon was of the covered variety, and only Joel was visible to the natural eye as the vehicle plunged into and out of the chuck holes that infested the way. JoeL was said to be the next to the ugliest man in all tbe country round, and his brother took precedence. The two brothers met a stranger, who, attracted by the supremely homely face of Joel, stopped his horse and said: "Excuse me, my friend, but would you mind teliin me your name?” In a sepulchral tone that fitted well the hideous faoe Joel replied: "Well, I guess I hain’t never done nothin that would make me ashamed to tell my name. My name is Joel”— '• Where do you live, if it is a fair question?” "I live in Wayne county, Indianny. ” "Well, stranger, I’ve seen much of Indianny, but I’ll bet you $lO that you’re the ugliest man in the state. ” "Well, I hain’t no gamblin man,” replied Joel, "but I hain’t never seen nothin in the Scriptur* ag’in bettin ona sure thing, an I’ll jest take that bet ” Turning to the wagon cover and peer ing into its depths he called: "Jonathan, stick your head out hyer. ” Jonathan did as he was requested. The stranger paid the money without a word of complaint—New York Mail and Express. He Got Hli The Rev. Robert Nourse relates this story in The Congregationalist: On a certain Sunday morning the or derly of the colonel of the Eighth Ohio presented himself before that officer. "Everything all right colonel?” he asked. After looking around and find ing that the tent had been put in order and his boots blacked he replied in the affirmative. "I have a favor to ask, ” said the orderly. "State it ” said the colonel. "I beg that I may go off today, tolonel, and go a little earlier and re main a little later.” "For what rea sons?” demanded the colonel. The or derly produced a letter and said, "Sir, I have received this from the president and he invites me to dine at the White House.” The president of the United States is in every way to be ranked among the great rulers of the world. But the gen nine and unaffected democracy of the man who now holds that exalted office is shown in this incident, which could Dot be paralleled in any other country in the world. S*nU»ro » Distinction. Santiago de Onba has an ecclesias tical distinction, and that is that it is the oldest bishopric in tbe western world. When all Pennsylvania was a traceless waste, an archbishop ruled a see of no mean proportions from that city and under that title. From the city of Santiago also went out the two great missionaries to the Indians and negroes, the first, Las Casas, who evangelised nearly all Central America, and the second, St Peter Claver, who worked’among the negroes of Brazil— Philadelphia CalL MilUoaairM* Street. The latest census proves that in up per Fifth avenue there is a stretch of houses a mile and a half long that con tains dozens of millionaires.
