Making Up o Complexion.

A very curious industry in Paris, and
one that Is more extensive than might
be supposed from its nature, is that of
pants, pencils and powders for making
up the complexion. Most of the great
perfumers, such as Guerlain, Pirer, etc.
have back room to their shops espe
clally devoted to this mysterious com
merce. The ordinary method of daub.
ing the face, first with white paint and
then with rouge, finds no favor with
the consummate artists who teach the
use of these identifying compounds.
For whitening the skin O preparation is
shown that Is composed of some insolu-
bic powder in liquid. The bottle must
first be well shaken and a very small
quantity of its contents must then bo
taken on fine old linen rag or bit of
cotton and rubbed round and round till
the preparation has penetrated the skin
thoroughly. This wash, they say, makes
the complexion beautifully white +"
without trace of the houriness of pow
der or ordinary paint. It is very costly,
being sold at $12 for a small bottleful.
Next comes the rouge, which is also
very costly, being valued at $S for a box
OF the best quality. From this superfine
article the grades descend through diff
ferent prices, until the coarse sixty cent
rouge is reached, which no weii-bred
beauty will condescend to use. Differ
ent shades of rouge are sold for differ
ent occasions there is a shade for day
Light, one for the theater, one for the
ballroom, one for the racecourse, etc.
Then there is scarlet liquid used for
coloring the lips, and black powder for
blackening the edges of the eyelids !:
this last requires some dexterity in its
use, as it must be put on as a powder
and then delicately washed in'' with
q fine linen rag and lukewarm water.
Black and brown pencils are used for
marking the arch of the eye heavy. and
pencil OF most delicate blue comes for
tracing the veins on the white surface of
the painted skin. 10 aid in this last
browning touch of the whole artistic per-
formance, a chart has been prepared
which gives with medical accuracy the
position OF every vein in the human face.

OF harmlessness is claimed for most Of
these pigments, yet deaths from too 5ree

A MARROW ESCAPE.
4 Lady While Sick in Bed IL Bit
ten BY y COppeFhead NnRke.

From the louisville CouTieF.JOurnal, August a
A most singular circumstance occurred
few nights ago to the wife Of Ar. James
Carr, formerly 4 clerk in the Gait House
in this city, and now passenger agent for
the Louisville * Nashville Railroad at
Memphis. Mrs. Carr has been visiting
recently some friends at TradewateF,
Kentucky, on the Louisville, Paducah X
Southwestern Railroad. While there she
became sick and was confined to her bed
She was required by her physician TO taEe
medicine at certain hOurSIutinB the night
at the time referred to, and the vessel con
tanning il was placed in chair beside the
bed. so that she would not be under the ne
cessity of waking her friends. When the
hour came for her To take dose OF the
medicine she reached towards tie chair
for the phial and spoon, but they were
not there. Mrs, Carr supposed that they
had bv some means been thrown to the
floor and reached down for them, when
something struck her on the hand, causing
a singing sensation. The lady was fright
ened aud CalledtO her friends, who quick
~ arose and made a light. When she
told them what had happened they look
cd under the bed and there found large
copperhead snake lying in his coil, with
his head erect, kissing and Prolruding his
tongue in that defiant manner character
istic Of the venOmOuS monster when an
cry. The only remedy in the house was
u part Of bottle Of whisky, which is
considered the best Of antidOtes for a
snake bite. The lady drank all there
was in the bottle, and the quantity was
probably sufficient to save her life, but
not enough to prevent very serious and
fearful effects. As quickly as possible
the family physician was called in, but he
was unable to arrest the Inflammation
which instantly commenced. On the fol.
lowing morning the lady was very sick.
Her arm was swollen almost as large az
the crown of a mans hat, and the hand
seemed as though it would burst. Every
thing known to the medical profession
was done to relieve her sutlGrings and al.
lay the irritation. After twcnty.fOur hours
treatment she showed symptoms Of i'm
provemeni, and the strongest hopes for
her recovery was entertained.
