IT is surely an objectionable fault, if not sin
Tor woman 10 neglect her personal appearance.
All women cannot be beautiful in every particu-
lar, but every woman may be Clearly, sweet,
attractive and lovable. A few golden freckles
on sun-kissed cheek may not detract from
beauty, but there is no excuse for The woman
who, through ignorance or neglect, allows her
face TO retain for very long such hideous blem-
ishes as sallowness, moth patches, blaclSheads
or pmples. 1t is not difficult to understand
why the face grows dark or shows other blem-
shes while all the rest of the body remains
perfect in appearance. The face being the out
let of expression for the body all the i'll condi-
lions hang their flag upon it. The face is con-
stantly exposed to climatic changes, all the i'm
puritieS that float in the air are free TO settle
upon it, and by mixing with the sebaclous Sc
cretions they enter and clog the pores. Again,
the face has not the benefit of the constant fric
ton which our clothing gives to other parts Of
the body Injurious cosmetics are also too often
the cause of thick murky complexion. These
are acknowledged facts and prove the necessity
of proper care and attention to simply keep the
complexion perfect. If 1t has already become
imperfect it requires proper treatment to re-
lfStOre it.

Mrs GerYaiSe Graham'S Face Bleach

Removes sallowness, sunburns, frecl1les, moth
patches, pimples. indeed all blemishes lodged
in the skin, but does not bleach from the face
the natural rosy color, Freckles, moth patches
and other discolorations are dissolved: black
heads, flesh worms and all impurities of the
pores are brought to the surface, where they
dry and fail of with the old cuticle. which gri-
dually fakes off by rubbing the face gently with
a towel. The face Bleach is also perfect
cure for coarse or stripped skin, as the old
cuticle is entirely but gradually removed.
While the old skin is thus being disposed of, the
new cuticle is forming, soft and smooth. pure
and clear, and fine as that OF an infant Face
Bleach is not cosmetic, but remedy which
IS to be discontinued when the disease is cured.
1t is frequently recommended by physicians to
to the most delicate skin. From one to three
bottles are required, according to the severity
OF the case. Price per bottle, $50. Send 10

NELLIE ARTHUR's PET.

The White House has always been great
place for pets President Arthur's daugh-
ter Nellie had q number of very pretty dogs
and there was play honse built for her
and them in the White House grounds dur
ing Arthur's administration. The regula-
tions as to dogs are very rigid in Washing
ton. Every dog must have tag on it and
if not it is taken up and put in the pound
One day favorite dog of Miss Nellie was
missing, and every one, about the execu-
tive mansion from the courtly President
down to Albert Hawkins, the coachman,
was worried about 1T. The grounds were
searched in vain and as the last resort an
advertisement was put in the paper describ-
ing the dog. 1t was then discovered that
it had been running on the street without
tag, had been caught in the dog net and
taken to the pound. Miss Nellie went her
self with her servants to get the dog out
and it is needless TO say that twas glad to
see her. Miss GRUMPY JR.

A modern Robinson crusoe.

CHARLESTON, S. c., April 26.-Over
two years ago J. II. Rogers, who was
a seamen, went abroad, leaving be-
hind his wife and dog. He told no
one of his intentions, and during the
/. time not a word was heard from him.
Three days ago he arrived and
told the following story: In 1888
he got berth on the steamship
Montrose from South Shields, Eng
land, bound for Piscagua, Peru, with
cargo of coal. The Montrose left
South Shields on July d, 1888, and
on the morning ofOctober 6. after
nearly doubling Cape Horn, took ire
and was burned. Captain Hill, Mate
Rogers, and the crew took to the
boats, and with provisions for q
month landed On the shore of Terra
del Fuego. During the night crowd
of almost naked Patagonians hover
ed around the camp, some of these
midnight investigators were fully
seven feet high.
Neve. sail appeared above the
horizon. They had their flags by
day and their fires by night, and
after aboat six weeks it dawned up
on them that they we're really cut off
from She civilized world. They knew
there was 3 trading station about 800
miles away, but the road to it had
to be found over almost impossible
mountains. BY this time, TOO, all
the provisions were exhausted. They
tried to eat seals. and they could not
venture out in their fr&il boats on an
unknown sea, so they simply sat
down and trusted iR Providence.
There they remained until July Is,
having experienced two and half
months of the most severe weather.
Toward the close of July they cue.
ceeded in signalling the Sierra Aus
tralia, which WIS lying in close to the
shore, the weather being very calm.
Captaia Reed, OF that vessel, sent
out boats for the shipwreeked men,
and took the@ to Peru, treating
them kindly. Mate Rogers was the
only American of the shipwrecked
crew

We mix IN the great international
jam; we crowd and push and worry.
And all for what? Over in the
graveyard yonder lie the hopes, am
bition and dreams of a thousand men
who rushed and worried, who toiled
and struggled only to find a narrow
prison cell where no hope or thought
of love can come. And does it pay !?
Ought it to be the base metal of huc-
tuating commercial value or the
priceless coin of pleasure and con-
tent that we poor mortals should
strive to secure? Buried cities, cen
turtles old, are found covered with
the dust of human beings. They
yield up their treasures, and yandals
dig among the bones of the dead
without sacred thought that they
may find bit of gold to satiate their
greed. And the man who pauses to
reflect upon the cause of it all, picks
a bare bone in the glare of his neigh
boris clustered diamonds.-Lincoln,

ALTHOUGH several European ma.
tions are reported to have adopted a
smokeless powder for small arms,
General Benet, the Inspector of Or
dinance, reports that mo American
has yet submitted for trial smoke
less powder" and yet he has reason
TO believe that invention originated
here. A smokeless powder would
enable the Government to reduce
the calibre of small arms, thus re-
ducing the weight of the gun itself
and Of the ammunition, or, if the
same weights should be carried, in
creasing the number Of rounds OF
ammunition served to each soldier
A 30-calibro rifle (the size proposed
for use with smokeless powder)
would be lighter than the usual
sporting rifle and have a bore not
much more than half the size Of the
present military weapon.

Homicide ut Hnrdman.

We learn the following particulars of tho
killing of Wake Dickens by his brother Eb.
Dickens at Hardman. on Feb. l4th. from
the Lexington Budget, of Feb. 20th:
Alta dance in Hendrix hall on Friday
night, the l4th instant. Eb. Dickens shot
and instantly killed Wake Dickens, his
brother, during the intermission for supper.
Eb. Dickens and Wake Dickens had been
living in the same house, Eb. being married
and Wake single. Recently Eb. and wife
separated, the cause being unknown, though
couiectured. Eb. remained on his ranch.
and the wife went to the home OF John
Dickens until she could make arrangements
to leave. Wake Dickens was also disposing
of his property and was doing 80 the night
of the dance. The supposition was that
Wake and Mrs. Eb. Dickens were going to
leaye together.
On the night of the l4th dance took
place at Hendrix hall, which was attended
by Wake Dickens and Mr.. and Mrs. Eb.
Dickens. Eb. danced with his wife, and all
seemed jolly until the intermIssion for sup
per. Those who occupied the first table
had just returned from the hotel, and THOSE
for the second were leaving the hall when
the shooting took place. Eb. was talking
to his wife just before going out. Then he
walked out of the hall, and Immediately
Wake Dickens and Eb's wife followed. Eb
had walked about half way across the plat
form at the head of the stairway when
Wake and the woman came out, and when
they came together Eb. shot Wake in the
back of the head at the edge OF the hair,
the ball ranging upward and showing itself
under the scalp above the forehead. Death
was instantaneous. At the report OF the
pistol Mrs. Dickens ran into the hall. .
number of the dancers rushed out, and in
tense excitement ensued, but few at first
knowing what had occurred.
After the shooting Eb. Dickens got his
horse and went home and then came back
near town, and on the evening Of the 18th
came in and gave himself up to the Justice
of the peace. He asked for time to procure
an attorney, which was granted. and the
preliminary examination set for to-day
(Monday) at 8 p. m. Court convened at the
school house at the hour named, and large
crowd was in attendance. After the com.
plaint was read by the justice the defendant
represented by attorney ]. N. Brown.
waived examination. and was turned over
to Sheriff Howard, who started for Hepp-
ner with him.
Our correspondent adds that Eb. Dickens
has the entire sympathy of Hardman and
vicinity, where he is well known, and that
it is generally believed that Eb. had ample
cause for his course.

From Wednesdays Daily.

Snow is general all over Eastern Oregon.
The beach is again well supplied with
wood.
Last night was a bleak, cold night, the
thermometer marking To- above zero.
Notwithstanding the cold weather no
blockades on this railroad haye occurred
yet.
The Knights Of Pythias have in contem-
plation giving an invitation ball at an early
date next month.
Mr., A. Mcleod, OF Kingsley, was in the
city yesterday. He says the snow is about
foot deep on the Tygh ridge.
The school meeting next Monday is
matter of interest to every one, and should
be attended by every taxpayer.
In this immediate vicinity farmers are
generally well supplied with feed, and the
loss of cattle will be very light.
We expect to hear Of heavy losses of
cattle since the blizzard. In few days we
shall receive definite information.
The sheriff informs us that taxes will be
delinquent on April lst, and that the tax
payers of the county can come at any time
and settle.
At Spokane Falls last week robbers bound
and gagged justice Ut the peace with the
intention of robbing the house, but were
fooled by neighbers.
A scow came up yesterday from near
Hood River bringing bounuful supply of
wood. There can. be no fears of a wood
famine II the cold weather continues.
There is good interest in the meetings at
the court house every evening. Several
have signifed their desire to change their
course of life and we hope their intentions
will be lasting.
There has been no blockade on the road
between this city and Portland caused
by the blizzard yesterday. The weather
has been cold and bleak, but no damage has
resulted SO far.
The o. r. & N. Co.'S shops are kept quite
busy repairing engines and cars. The shops
are an absolute necessity here, and will re-
main while eighty-eight miles of distance
remains between this citv-and Portland.
The Vogt Grand last night was not well
heated. and we hear great many COM
plants oil this account. Fires should be
started in the morning, so that in the even-
ing the hall woIld be comfortable.
Persons who have lived here for quarter OF
a century say they have never seen such
sudden change as occurred yesterday morn
ing. Within two hours the weather changed
from balmy spring to bleak and clustering
winter. It was the tail-end of an eastern
blizzard, and our people do not wish to see
another
