Madame Elise Duprez, of Boston, wishes
to call the attention of ladies to two of the
finest articles in the world,' one of which
Turkish rouge (made in BOSTON,, s.gives the
most beautiful and life-like tint to the COM
plexion OF any article now in the MARKET
Therefore. any body who possesses "any ar
! ticle now in the market" whatever that be,
( wash-tubs, patent bee hives, or whatever
else, can have "a most beautiful and lite
like tint" given to its complexion; at least,
I that is what Madame Elise Duprez, whose
real name is probably something as prOsai-
cally Yankee as Sampson, says in her ad-
veftisement. But there is more of assur-
ance to come. "The great value OF this ar
ticfe lies in the fact that it willnot rub off,
That is it is water proof; Precipitation will
not loosen it, and tears-if one is so unfash,
ionably emotional as to shed any-will not
streak it ; nor will a well restrained be-
trothal kiss spot it. AS for the pores of the
skin, they are quite too small to be regard
ed in the case, and the worn out matter
which they are intended to throw off the
system can be carried inward to the vital
organs, which are vulgar things, but for
tunately ont of sight. '5s
=, There is a rouge older than any sold at
the stores. 1t has been very prodigally
used; but thereis always a large stock re-
naming. 1t is perfectly water proof when
once applied, and Is said in proverb to be
thicker than water, and yet it penetrates
the most attenuated spaces. 1T toiU not rub
of, but the hardersit is rubbed the more
vivid it appears. This wonderful 'rouge"
NOT of Turkey, particularly, but of every
where-is called blood. It is something
that infuriates animals which see and smell
it,, which has apparently transported, Mr..
iBergh into unreasoning sorrow that it
should never be shed, and at which it is the
fashion to scream prettily, or faint judi
lciously. 1t exists in the human body, and,

tight dress, circulates through every part
of it, penetrating every minutest portion,
performing the double work of dredge
which removes the deposits of waste, and a
supply boat which carries to every
fibre of muscle and every tiny YES
sci fresh portion of nourish-
ment. 1t is precisely of such character as
the quality of the food which makes it and
the assistance or hindrance which it finds in
its work. 1t makes lily white compilations
with an under-fiush of rose, but it does not
make chalky ones, nor does it consent to
any artificial email. It does not omit to
visit the cheeks, but when the deposits to
be removed are large and the supply of
fresh organic matter to be dispensed is
scanty, this may easily happen, to-wit /:
that before the blood reaches the cheeks, on
its Journey round the body, the little sup
ply boats which carry the fresh matter are
emptied. and the little dredges are filled.
rouge; and forthwith appears Madame
Elise Duprez, just from the Palace of the
Rising Sun, where she was head femme de
chdnabre to Aurora, bringing the very thing
which was wanted.
But is it wanted? That is the question.
Here is the pith OF the matter: Blood was
made and its movements ordered long be-
fore there were any looking-glasses, or
chignons, or fashions, and hence it does not
pay any attention to them the mountain
was the older, and respectfully declined to
go to Mahomet. Blood does not like close
dresses, or pastry, or confectionery, or hot
rooms or languOr on cushions, or late hours
and meals, or elegant Incidence, or email.
or any other sort of dishonesty; but it does
like wholesome food in moderate quantities,
pure cool air-particularly that which is
found out of doors-and it likes exercise
best of all things. 1t delights in rubbing,
and when cold water strikes it out of sight
it rushes back in the pluckiest way. 1t
would be thrilled in ecstasy if people would
only use their legs in brisk walking, partic-
ularly before six in the morning; it would
renew its youth for any woman who should
dare to swim or run, or pull an oar, and
would bound in the veins of any one who
should ride at a tive-barred gate. Like
Madame Duprez's, its rouge will not rub off
This is no humbug," but the more it is
rubbed the more it will stay on. Better to
slap your cheeks, dear young trdgillissind
than to rub anything on them from the
establishment of Madame Duprez. You
will not be too sanguinary if you protest
that you must have blood. rt+ u ~. 4
