To REMOVE FRECKLEs.-Horse-r adish
grated into cup of cold sour milk-let it
stand twelve hours, then strain and apply
two or three times day. It will remove
freckles from hands or face in short
time.
One ounce of lemon juice mixed with a
quarter of drachm of pulverized borax
and half drachm of sugar will also re-
move freckles. Keep this lotion in glass
bottle corked tightly few days before
using, and apply occasionally, and it will
soon remove them.

The air was chilly, the wind sweepingly
strong, and ''white caps" were running upon
Tahoe and Marlette Lakes. We could see
no steamers upon the first mentioned lake.
The descent from this point to Marlette Lake
lust below us was abrupt, necessitating the
leading of our horses There is a trail along
the west side of the lake to the dam and COM
mencement of the fume. At that point
the natural outlet into Tahoe Lake-is
another view of the last named lake. For
merly Marlette Lake covered only few acres
estimated from ten to thirty. The con-
struc ion of dam some eighty feet in length
has caused the overflow of some three hun
dred acres. With the present dam the lake
can be raised seven or eight feet higher. The
water has a reddish-brown tinge. 1t has
been stocked with fish, which are reported to
thrive From the dam there is also a fume
for wood and timber that comes down the
Clear Creek canyon south of Carson. From
this dam there is also good wagon road to
Spooner's Station, six or eight miles. The ride
from the Lake across the summit to Carson,
over mountains despoiled Of trees, is less in
teresting, yet slightly. Franktown or Little
valley heads away up west of Carson. Water
is scarce in the canyon streams. A portion
of the water which naturally flows into the
Franktown creek was formerly diverted to
the fume down Ashs Canyon to Carson.
1t now goes it's former and natural course.
The result is not beneficial to Eagle Valley
farmers Wild flowers in the mountains are
frequent, of many hues, delicate, fresh.
There are suggestions Of wild pansies, blue
bells, and other cultivated flowers. There
are blossoms in punches and clusters to the
mountain tops and alongside the snow banks
The "manzanita" with its polished dark-red
bark, berries and enduring evergreen leaves
even when dry the wild currant, the bal
sam, and much interesting shrubbery, is
novel and interesting to the dweller in the
valley. The young pine and cedar forests are
springing up and give promise of renewing
the former beauty that clothed these now
ashy pale mountain sides-a contamination
much to be desired

TOMEN Is RULL-FIGHTERs.

After the season of the principal bull
fights is over, a second series is inaug-
urated in Madrid, and in this stout
young Amazons take the places Of the
hardy brutes who usually play the
matadors. These heroines bind up their
abundant hair with long ribbons, and
around their bodies wear a wicker bot
temless barrel, which protects them
against the more furious assaults of the
tormented animals. These women,
when dancing before the bulls and in.
citing them to combat, look more like
turtles walking on their hind legs than
human beings They are frequently
thrown high in the air, and now and
then come crashing in their osier barrel
down upon Interpretations. The animals
chosen for this minor series Of combats
are ordinarily young, and their human
tormentors avoid killing them if possible.
The rings are frequently invaded by
crowds of amateurs, who are provided
with long, flexible poles, by the aid OF
which they leap over the backs of the
maddened bulls that rush at them. a
few years since, children were introduced
in the rings in combats with bull calves,
in which the poor, little misguided
human creatures were sometimes Grid
pied for life by the calves, whose play
was too rough for them.

upon his hearers the Joy which the patri-
arch felt on the return of his son, as IN
stanced by his ordering the fatted calf to
be killed, the young curate felt pardon
able pride in dwelling upon a subject
which could not fail to be comprehensi-
BILE to the dullest plow-boy in the con-

was no ordinary calf which was to be
/ killed; it was no commsn calf or beast
suffering from murain no hali-starved
calf, slowly awaiting death. No. it was
not even merely fatted calf; but" be
coming more impressive, sit was the
fatted calf, which had been priced and

HISTORY OF A PICTURE.

Two of the most celebrated artists the
world has ever known dwelt in the same
city. One delighted in delineating beauty
in all its graees of tint, form, and motion.
HIS portraits were instinct with the charm OF
physical vigor The graceful. half-yoluptu.
Gus outline of form and feature harmonized
with delicately blended tints. On his can
vas the homeliest faces had an almost ire
sistible charm. The other found pleasure
only in depicting weird and gloomy subjects.
Above all, did he excel in painting the nor.
traits of the dying. The agonizine death
thrOe, the ghastly face and form, were ali
depicted with marvellous fidelity. There
existed between these artists the most in
tense dislike. At length this dislike cul-
minated. The beauty-loving artist had been
engaged in painting the portrait of a beauti-
full woman. Connoisseurs pronounced il the
most wonderful piece of art that had ever
been produced. His brother artist was ZEAL
Gus of his fame and sought revenge. By
brlbing the keeper of the studio he gained
access to the picture each night. At first he
was content to only deaden the brilliancv of
the complexion and eyes, efface the bloom
from cheek and lip and paint a shadow on
either cheek. Later, his strokes grew holder
and freer, and one morning the artist awoke
to find the entire outline OF the portrait
changed He could scarcely recognize in
the emaciated form and haggard cOunten-
ance the glowing conception he had en-
DOlleu. Inc paIllu lace ana e&pfesSlOnless
eyes he had attributed TO a lack of genuine
ness in his materials; but when the outlines
were changed he suspected the cause and
Indignantly dismissed the keeper. What
the revengeful artist marred by few rapid
strokes of his skiIlful brush was only re-
stored by years of patient industry. Reader,
need we name the artists, - Health, who
paints the flowers and grassy carpet no
less than the human form divine,-Disease,
the dreaded artist who revels among the
ruins both of nature and humanity.-an
Carelessness, the keeper to whom Health
often intrusts his portraits. And is il not
the beauty of woman, the most admired OF
all the works which adorn the studio of
II alth, that Disease oftenest seeks to mar!
The slightest stroke of his brush upon the
delicate organization leaves an imprint that
requires much skill and patience TO efface.
Restoration must be prompt. Careiessness
must be dismissed. Let suffering. women
heed the warning ere Disease has marred
their chief beauty-Health-beyo repsra-
ton. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescri ptiOn has
been used by thousands of these sufferers,
and they are unanimous in the praise of its
excellence. If you would be transformed
from the pallid, nervous invalid into a happy,
vigorous woman, try il.
