To CLEAR the Complexion.

Mrs. Langtry gives the following recipe:
A tablespoonful Of sulphur taken every
other morning for a week, then omitted three
mornings and taken again, will clear the com
plexion in a couple of months, but will prob
ably make the black specks more numerous
for a week or two. A mixture Of powdered
birthstone or sulp phur in diluted glycerine,
rubbed on at night, in connection with the
other treatment,wil soon cause them to
disappear. Wash of carefully in the morn
ing with soap and water in which there is a
little ammonia. After this, if the face seems
soily. wash it at night with spirits Of camphor
reduced with half as much glycerine and 4
few drops Of ammonia. In the morning bathe
the face as before with little ammonia in it,
and after wiping it carefully. sponge it over
with camphor and water, and in short time
the fairness of your skin will delight yourself
and surprise your friends.

Straight bring the soul to me
That dared to pass without my leave!"
Full sad and stern was he.
With dropping wings the Cherubim
stood silent all the day,
TAI evening came; and vet no soul
Was found in Heaven astray.
Night brooded over Earth and He'll;
In Paradise twas light
Across the slender bridge Of fire
st Peter SAW this sight:
Upon the brim of He'll there stood
A maid as Angels are:
Her fee shone like tn, Jesus, and
Her voice rose sweet and far.
10, good St Peter. here am I!
That was not Heaven to me.
While he loved was ever doomed
Within this He'll 10 be.-
From out all Heaven a shout arose
Through Hell its music swept;
And nSt the golden gate OF Doom
81. Peter Leaned and wept.
