A Girl,s P,esence of MIND.

A whole village was thrown into ex-
element not long ago by an ignorant,
uncontrolled young mother, who ran
screaming into the street, Jack is
bleeding TO DEATH Run for the doc
tor, quick!"
The father walked the floor in a
panic of terror; the children cried;
the neighbors hocked in; the mother
went into mysteries, and little Jack
was fainting from loss OF blood. The
"blood spurts' showed that an artery
had been severed. His father was
trying to plaster up the wound in his
arm, when a young girl of sixteen,
from the high school, came rushing in.
She snatched a billow case off the bed,
cut it into strips and bound them
tightly above and delow the wound.
The doctor came soon, and simply
said:-"My dear, you have saved the
boys life. Your knowledge of physi-
ology was as good as mine, in this
case!n-Home Magazine.

Pretty Grabrielle Greeley.

A0btJ 81 VA
Miss Gabrielle Greeley, daughter of
Horace Greeley, who, as a girl Of
eighteen years, was a famous belle,
resides very quietly on the old farm
at Chappaqua. She is about twenty
six years OF age, still very beautiful,
but has almost entirely given up
society, devoting herself chiefly to
charitable work under ritualistic aus
pieces. She bought in the old Greeley
homestead, and has since spent much
money and time on the Episcopal
church near by. Perhaps no girl in
America ever had a better claim to
social recognition both at home and
abroad than Miss Greeley, whose
beauty is of a striking character and
whose accomplishments are many.
She was the rage of two seasons in
London, but while enjoying the sim
pie pleasures of life cared nothing for
its social successes.-EpOch.

on the subject as saying that the first
place the face ''spoils'l is under the
eyes. Hollows form here, and the
skin, becoming loose through depres-
sion of the muscles, falls into wrinkles
or crows feet" To prevent this it is
necessary to keep the cuticle as elastic
and in as resistant a condition as pos
sible. And this is how it is done:-
You must first draw the mouth hard
into the semblance of a smile. Dothis
before the glass, and next place the
index and third and fourth fingers of
each hand on the small mounds
formed at the top of the cheeks, and
press lightly downward with the tips.
Then relax the face at once; again
draw up into a smile. then relax; do
this with increasing rapidity over and
over until the muscles are tired, al
ways maintaining the downward pres

hard but that the contraction of the
muscles in the smile will raise them
each time.

was one of the first to breach the idea
of organizing into concrete expression
the sentiment developed by the appear
ance of Edward Bellamy's book. Mr..
Willard has one of the most strongly
asserted personalities to be found among
the Nationalist leaders. Frankly out
spoken in the expression of his ideas, he
is equally vigorous in their presentation.
His marked aquiline features give an
additional aggressive look to his bearing,
which, indeed, is that of one always
ready to maintain the standard of his
cause in the face of any opposition.
Active in debate, though without claim
to oratorical gifts, he expresses himself
plainly and fOrcefully, in a way that
leaves no doubt of his earnestnesss. AL
though ardent in expression, ne has,
nevertheless, the conservative spirit
that characterizes Nationalism in con-
trast with the general run of reform
movement. But, however strongly he
may differ with them as to any subject
under consideration, Mr.. Willard always
has the respect and genuine liking of

the history, structure and Use of the
English language, to the study of which
subjects he has devoted much of his
life, He is also prominently connected
with the movement which has been in
operation for several years in favor of
substituting cremation for earth burial.
In connection with this he is widely
known both here and in Europe, and
indeed may be regarded as the father of
the movement in this country. having
originated the parent society, from
which so many Others have already
sprung. Amid his other work he has
always maintained lively interest in
matters relating to the social condition
of mankind, and was thereby led to
affiliate himself with the Nationalist
movement while he was in Germany,
and since his return to this country has
actively cooperatcd in the work of the
club and the magazine which he now
edits. The improvement of the National
ist Magazine under his management is a
fact gratifying to all his friends, to none
more so than to the former editor, now
one of his assistants.
