How lo be Handsome.
Most people would like to be hand
some. Nobody denies the great pow
er which any ptrson may bave who is
handsome, and attracts yon by good
looks, even before a word has been
spoken. And we see all sorts of de
vices in men and women to improve
tbeir looks. Now, all cannot have
good features—they are as God made
them—bat almost any one can look
well, especially with good health. It
fs hard to give in a very short space,
bnt in brief these will do:
Keep clean—wash freely. All the
skin wants is leave to act freely, and
it takes care of itself. Its thousands
of air holes mast not be closed.
Eat regnlarly, and sleep enongh—
not too mneb. Tbe stomach can no
more work oil tbe time, night and
day, than a borae. It mast have reg
ular work and real.
Good teeth are a help to good looks.
Brush them with a soft brush, espe
cially at night. Go to bed with
cleansed teeth. Of course to bave
white teeth it is needful to let tobacco
•lone. All women know that. Wash
es for the teeth should be very sim
ple. Acid may whiten the teeth, but
it takes off tbe enamel and injures
them.
Sleep in • cool room in pure air.—
No one can have a c.ennly skin wbo
breathes bad air. Bnt more than all,
in order to look well, wake np mind
and soal.
When the mind is awake the dull
sleepy look passes away from tbe
eyes. I do not k.npv. that the brain
expands, but it seems so. Think and
read, not trashy novels, bat books
and papers that have something in
them. ’.re
- Men sav thoy’Cannot afford books,
anil sometimes do not even pay for a
newspaper. In that esse it does them
little good, they feel so mean while
reeding them. Bat roeu can afford
what they really choose. If all the
money spent in sulf-indulgoDce, in
bnrtful indulgence, was spent in
books or papers for self improvement,
we should see a change. Men would
grow handsome and women too. We
were not meant to be mere animals.
Let ns bave books and read them,
and sermons and heed them.

An official of tbe post office depart'
ment says that the recent experiments
with tbe tricycle here as a means of
collecting and delivering mails has
been eminently successful, and that
the introduction of the tricycle in tbe
postal service in other cities ie only a
question of time. The first to nse tbe
trioyde in Washington eity was Mrs.
P elva Lockwood, tbe female lawyer.
Tbe city post office, having made tbe
experimeot successfully, has ordered
a number of tricycles, each one saving
the government tbe expense of a carri
er. Tbo impression is, however, that
the successful nse of tbe trioyoleis lim
ited to cities with smooth streets.
A passenger in a Boston street car
palled tbe vest button of tbe conduct

ring. A new device for stealing fares 1 ai
was thus discovered. Bell. punches
are used on that line, and thb old
plan of carrying a small gottg In' the
palm of the band to strike when pre
tending to punch a slip has become
dangerous. So the plsn of conceal
ing the gong in the vest and connect
ing it with a button was invented.

Tbe less onr opportnnics for forming
