DintpIes MamaJactared to Order.

Some poet it was who said that when
ever a man has dimple in his chin then
Venus is his friend, but Naybe that
rule won't hold good in these days when
dimples are manufactured by art. For
there is place on O'Farrell street in
this city where dimples are made to or
der. went there out of curiosity. I
was shown into parlor somewhat re-
sembling a dentists operating room.
There was glass case full of bottles,
washes and wigs and a regular dentists
chair that suggested world OF. comfort.
This sign was displayed over the fire.
place: "M. Alphonse Pondunk, I'M
prover and Beautifer, from Paris"
A dapper little gent in a velvet cut
away coat and deep purple neckcloth,
whose face wore a complacent s1nirk,
claimed the name as his.
I bashfully suggested the dimpleques
ton and asked for some points. real
ly did want a dimple in my arm, and
told him so. But I insinuated my dis
belief in his ability to produce the neces-
sa1y article.
Whereupon he convinced me by prac-
tice. This is how it was done:
My arm being bare and the exact spot
indicated, he placed small glass tube,
the oriice of which was extremely small,
upon the spot. This tube had working
within it piston, and was so small that
when the handle was drawn up the air
was exhausted from the tube and it ad-
hered to the flesh, raising a slight pro-
tuberance. Around this raised portion
Monsieur Alphonse daintily tied piece
of scarlet silk, and then took away his
suction machine. The little point Of
skin which was thus raised he sliced off
with wicked-looking knife, bringing
the blood.
I tried hard not to scream, but it waa
so unexpected I had to.
Then he bound up the arm, placing
over the wound small silver object like
an inverted cone, the point of which was
rounded and polished. This little point
was adjusted SO as to depress the exact
center of the cut.
Then he told me to go away and not
touch the spot until the next day. When
[ came at that time he dressed my arm
again, and this operation was repeated
for five days, when the wound was
healed. The silver cone was removed,
and there, sure enough, beneath it was
the prettiest dimple in the world! And
all John had to pay for it was ten DOL
lars.
Now, theoretically considered, dir
pies are most enhancing. Cleopatra
had dimple directly over her heart.
and Antony said that it was the mari,
made by the lips Of Eros, who kissed her
at her birth. Ninon de l'Enclos had
dimpled toes which were renowned for
their sea-shell pinkness and beau V.
Helen of Troy had large dimple Oh her
left shoulder, and Anna Dickinson has
one on the end of her nose. A woman
without dimples is never ever even sure
of one proposal; with them they come
in dozens.--RoSGnsond, IN San Fran

JOURNALISM AND WoMEN.

Boston correspondence No work is
more strangely and more curiously mis-
understood than that required by jour
nalism. 1t not only requires special
talent of high order, but the greatest
amount OF technical discipline, general
information, adaptability, quickness of
dlrtion and facility of resources. With
all this it requires, too, what is almost a
sixth sense, the mental habit of keen
analysis and swift combination. While
these qualifications are, in their perfec-
ton, the result of experience, they must
also be natural gifts. The journalist,
even as the poet, is born, not made.
The young woman who aspires to do
critical literary work " would, upon
trial, probably be found incompetent to
write local paragraph satisfactorily.
If she is earnest in her desire to enter
journalism she must be content to begin
at the beginning. She must realize the
Importance of that sympathetic percep-
ton, graphic delineation and power of
representation that characterize the able
reporter. 1t is department whose dis
cipline is Invaluable and whose scope it
may well be young woman's aspiration
to ably fill, and there is not the slightest
danger Of her work being too good for it
the anxiety should be to have it suf-
fciently good. If the aspiring young
woman is ready to begin in the simplest
manner, and bring her best abilities to
whatever she is set to do, she may, in
time, grow to other work. That depends
wholly on innate ability and her power
of perseverance.
Again, the professional journalist is as
often amazed as amused over the atti-
tude taken by the young woman whose
contribution he rejects. Now it is an
unwritten law veil understood in the
profession of journalism that the editor
is not under the slightest obligation to
give reason for his acceptance or re-

In all United States gold and silver

the same, and all our coin contain 900
parts of pure gold or silver to 100 parts
of alloy. They are called 900 fine.
This would make them nine-tenths pure

good and holy. The man who lives
righteous life, who worships God, at
tends church, pays debts, and labors
for the good of humanity, must be an
enemy to the wicked-or, rather, must
have the wicked for an enemy. For,
while the good man is in the sane
tuary pouring forth his spirit in
prayer, and talking with God, the
wicked may be in Satan's sanctuary,
the saloon, filling his belly" cursing
every holy influence which he has not
been able to borrow with which to
cover up his own hideousneSs. Of
the terrible fate of the wicked who
forsakes not his wicked ways, this
prophesy saith: "All darkness shall be
hid in his secret places; fire not
blown shall consume him. The
Heaven shall reveal his iniquity; and
the earth shall rise up against him.
The increase of his house shall depart,
and his goods shall flow away in the
day of his wrath. This is the portion
Of a wicked man from God, and the
heritage appointed unto him by God. "
The trouble with a great many
men is that they do not regard right
eousness in any other light than as
something to be professed, as a mat
ter Of convenience, in order to retain
a standing among decent people; and
they do not regard honor as anything
save an empty profession. They make
the mistake of not.regarding mankind
as better than themselves; they re-
gard mankind as being blind, and
hope, for their own safety that Je-
hovah is at least little near-sighted.
One of the results, as we'll as one of
the objects, of successful gospel teach
ing, is to make man realize that not
only is the world watching his every
movement, but that the Divine eye is
ever upon him, and that he will be
held to strict accountability for his
every act. Let man fully realize,
when he sits in the den of infamy,
swilling the horrible slops for sale
there, that that side Of his character is
thoroughly understood by the world.
Then let him mend his ways-frst,
by getting out of such places, and
such company, next, by living an up
right, honest life. If he be naturally
too mean to do better, let him reflect
that he cannot long deceive anybody,
and that man protesting nothing
but wickedness is more to be admired
than a wicked man who processes to
be good. If the practice be right,
there is little need of any profession
at all

Last Thursday morning, a large num-
Der of guests from home and abroad as
sembled at the NJ. E. Church, Wellston,

E. Ferree and Miss Ella Watson, both of
that place. The couple arrived promptly
at 9:45 at the church, with c. 7. Aten at
tendant, and entered the church, and be-
ing led by the ushers, o. B. Gould and E..
A. Austin to the altar, where the cere-
mony was performed which forever
bound the twain as one, by Pastor in
charge, L. G. Haddox. After the cere-
mony the bride and groom were escorted
to the 1920 train by quite a number of
guests, on which train they took their de-
parture for Springfield, Dayton, Cincin-
maitland other points. Notwithstanding
the gloominess of the day, there is no
doubt many days of sunshine and happi-
ness in the future for the bride and
groom. They take with them the best
wishes Of hosts of friends.
A large number of the handsomest of
presents were received by the happy cou-
pie, but as a list could not be procured,
they are omitted.
Among those present from distance
were the following:

farm near Cincinnati. On last Sun
day their farm was overrun with
hunters, whose dogs were worrying
the cows. The brothers went out and
asked the hunters to leave. One of
them, Gustave Hermann, had dog
worrying a COW. Hess tried to run
the dog away, when Hermann threat
ened to shoot him IL he struck the
dog. Hess then ordered Hermann off
the place, and advanced upon him,
when Hermann fired a heavy charge
Of no. 5 shot into Hess breast, tearing
his heart open, and killing him in

This morning it rained-it poured

this vicinity, or large number of
them, dressed themselves in water
proof and gossamer, filled their bas-
kets and spread their umbrellas, and
started out to surprise Mrs. John
Rice, in which, l think, they thor
oughly succeeded, as it was very un-
propitious morning for visitors, yet
there was quite a number Of friends
and relations gathered around their
freside and for the space of four hours
enjoyed themselves in such way they
can always remember it with pleasure.
This party was to celebrate her fifth
eth birthday, which came on the 2Sth
Of October. She has been married 33
years, and is surrounded by children
and grand children, and is passing
smoothly along the journey of this
life.
How sweet at night to sit you down,
Beside a gentle, loving wife;
And in your hearts drear trials own,
A help-mate to each shade of life.
Her love can smooth the troubled way,
Her tenderness bids care depart:
Her smiles enhance the darkest day,
And make a sunshine to the heart.
She is guard against despair,
She is hope in every i'll;
She is pearl Of priceless wear,
A lasting joy our life to fill.

still be acknowledged to be the greatest
Of all medicines, and will still receive the

it, and have shown their appreciation of
it by their testimonials to that effect.

The Way to SUcceed.

A good deal of speculation is being
INDUCED in by Republicans as to what
shall be the policy Of the party in the
future, in order to achieve success at
the polls. The longer Republicans
deliberate over the question of policy,
the more unsatisfactory will be the
deliberations. There is only one pol
icy for party, and that is to do right.
The Republican party has been sue
cessful in the past because it has al
ways been in the advance upon ques-
tions of right. 1t has always been a
party Of progress, and therein has
lain its strength. The people have
not lost all admiration for the grand
record Of the party, neither have they
lost confidence in the party. The
policy of Cancellation has been the
curse Of the Republican party. Poll
ticians have ever found some element
which must, according to their ideas,
be conciliated in order to insure party
success. And attempts at concilia-
tion have proven failures, from time
to time, as they should.
Suppose the war for the Union had
been conducted with view to con-
ciliating every Southern-sympathizer
in the North! Would there now be
any Union to rejoice in? What was
true of the Southern-sympathizer is
equally true Of the sympathizers with
the liquor traffic, and other elements
which the party has sought to please.
Now, let the party next year have
one of its old-time enthusiastic con-
ventions, and one Of its old-time ring
ing platforms, and the people will
rally, with renewed enthusiasm, un-
der its banners. A bold, manly course,
is the only road to success. No mat
ter from what direction claims Of re-
cognition may come, let the party
ignore all that save which is right.
There is nothing to be gained through
politicians criticising the voters Of the
party for doing this thing, or that
thing. The voters have sovereign
power, and will vote as may seem to
them best. What is wanted is line
of party conduct which shall unite
and enthuse all the voters Of the par
ty, and thus insure success.
