gaEA YOUNG LADY returning to he,


country home, after sojourn of few months
in the City, was hardly recognized by her friends
In place Of coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had
a soft ruby complexion ofalmost marble smooth
ness, and instead of twenty-three she really ap-
peared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the
cause of SO great change, she plainly told them
that she used the Circnssinn Balm, and con-
sidered it an invaluable acquisition to any Ladys
toilet By its use any Lady or Gentleman can
improyeathcir personal appearance an hundred
fold. 1t is simple in its combination, as Nature
herselfis simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy
in drawing impurities from, also healing, cleans
ing and identifying the skin and complexion.
By its direct action on the cuticle it draws from
it all its impurities, kindly healing the same, and
leaving the surface as Nature intended it should
be, clear, soft, smooth and beautiful Price 81,

BULLY FOR THE INDIANS The Ida
no Statesman of the Doth inst, says =
The most cheering thing we have re-
celved lately was the news published last
week of the capture Of three peace COM
missloners by the Cheyennes, near Fort
Larned. They are held as hostage for
the delivery Of the annuity goods now
stored at that place. That was not quito
so good haul as one could wish, but
then three peace commissioners amt very
bad, after all. Now, if the noble children
Of the plain will go to work and roast
these unsophisticated and meek manner
ed men of peace, not quite done, but Just
enough to give them little insight into
the style Of an old-fashioned Indian bake,
perhaps their idea of the character Of the
untutored red man would undergo an
immediate change. Had they fallen in
to the hands of our peaceful red breth.
rem in Idaho they would have been serv-
ed up in the most approved manner-not
unlike the style in which the sons of
Africa occasionally treat missionaries
The playful Snake is an impartial crea.
ture, and does not entertain any more
regard for heightened specialized philan-
thropy than he does for the Indian hating
bull-whacker. We only regret that the
Cheyennes did not succeed in getting a
larger number Of their admiring sympa-
Tiers. Have better luck next time, may
be. Hope the Indians will capture all
such men.

MY VALENTINE

On the evening Of the 18th of Feb
ruary, 1910, two Young men sat in n
comfortably furnished room in large
New York boarding house. A bright
FIRE glowed in the CRATE, well chosen
engravings adorned the walls, and a
bright FIRE was diffused about the
room.
Let me introduce the occupants OF
the apartments as Tom Stacy and
John Wilbur, young men of twenty
Eve or thereabouts, who were known
in business circles as Stacy & Wilbur,
retail and dry goods dealers, No. -
