So says Jenness-Miller, the famous
lecturer and writer on dress reform
and physical culture, and a celebrated
writer in a medical journal says: 'Face
powders and toilet preparations have a
legitimate use in the toilette of every
woman and use properly made need
not any more than the proper use of
perfume displease any one, while it
cannot be denied that they add to the
personal beauty and attractiveness and
give to the wearer an expression that
can be interpreted by any practical OBJ
server to mean that THIS WOMAN is NEAT
AND CAREFUL ABOUT HER PERSON AND
HOLDS JUST PRIDE IN BEAUTIFYING HER
SELF. In the use of toilet preparations
it is easy to distinguish the well-bred
from the vulgar" Another well-known
authority, DR.. Arthur Dean Bevan,
professor of anatomy in the Rush Med
ical College and P. A. surgeon U. S. M.
H. S., writes without reserve on a
kindred subject. What he says:
CHICAGO, Jan. 81, 1883.
w. M. Wisdom-Dear Sir: AS you
requested, have examined the formula
of your toilet preparation called Rober-
tine. / can assure you that the ingred-
tents are both bland and harmless, and
that the compound would form an
excellent application in irritated con-
ditions of the skin.
Society ladies and noted artistes
throughout the United States unhesi-
tatingly pronounce Robertine the "per-
lection" in toilet article. Once tried
always used is its history.

Height of Cruelty.

Nervous women seldom receive the sympathy
they deserve. While often the pictures of health,
they are constantly ailing. To withhold sym
pathy from these unfortunates is the height of
shortness of breath, huttering pain in side, weak
and hungry spells, and finally swelling OF
ankles, oppression, choking, smothering and
dropsy DR.. Miles New Heart Cure is Just the

ache, weakness, etc, his Restorative Nervine is

General Sherman and His Daughter.

General Sherman was an exception
to the rule that the warrior, trained to
the rough service of the field, where
the rough conditions of life neces-
sarily give brusqueness to the man
ners, and where the finer amenities of
life receive no encouragement, feels
out of place in the drawing room as on
the battle field. For the past two win
tiers he has had considerable leisure,
and INDUCED good deal in social life.
He did this not merely for his own en-
ioyment but in order to give pleasure
to his two daughters, who naturally,
like all girls of their ages, enjoy social
pleasures. I" | told my girls" said the
general in his hearty way one day last
fall, 4" that | would 90 the whole thing
with them this winter, and Pm all pre-
pared for a course of dissipation" He
had youthful delight in all kinds of
amusements. He loved the theater
and music and enjoyed the society of
all sorts and conditions of men. He
was fond of the society of actors of
note, and enjoyed the friendship of
Edwin Booth, Lawrence Barrett, Jo-
seph Jefferson, William Florence and
many olhers OF the theatrical profession.
Miss Rachel sherman, the daughter of
the general, whose name was so often
associated with his, will be greatly
missed in society this winter. She was
the generals companion and assistant.
She is very attractive girl of about
twenty-three. Though not exactly
pretty, she has a Titianesque style
which is original aud taking. In con-
versation she is bright and entertain
ing. She has naturally been much
sought after in New York, and has gone
everywhere. She has travelled extern
sively with her father and has had on
unusual experience for one of her years.
She is, however, quite unmoved by all
the adulation she has received, and her
natural modesty is one of her chief
charms. -Ne,O York Evening Telegram,
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1891-03-11
Paris Spies.

The instant you arrive at Paris sta
ton you are in the midst of spies.
You are driven to hotel in cab.
In half an hour the cabman will fur
nish the police with any particulars he
may have been able to gather concern
ing your position, destination, business,
etc. Arrived at your hotel you become
the object of scrutiny, as close as it is
secret, on the part of divers persons,
who, though attached to the place in
the capacity of manager or cashier or
even porter or :" boots" are in reality
enrolled soldiers of the great detective
army. And here / may mention
special characteristic of the French de-
tective system, its faculty of recruiting
adherents in all classes of society.
French spies for the most part are not
simply spies and nothing more. They
have a trade or occupation of their
own, to which they seem wholly and
solely devoted, while yet assiduously
pursuing sub rosa their spying.

The Power of Will.

The influence of powerful will in
arresting or retarding the progress of a
disease apparently fatal is one of the
most wonderful of all mental phenom-
ena. A person of feeble frame, but of
a determined and hopeful spirit, some
times keeps death at bay for several
weeks, months, even years, and finally,
in defiance of the physicians who have
sat in judgment on his case and pro-
nounced it utterly hopeless, RECEIVERS
and returns to his customary vacations.
On the other hand, man of strong
physique not unfroquenty willis and
dies under a paratively comfortable
ailment, simply from lack of mental
energy which compels the strong-willed
weakling to repel the destroyer. An
drew Jackson, when physically wreck
and carrying lead enough in him to kill
a weak man, wac able, by the force of
his will, to triumph over disease and at
the same time hold regiment of muffin

Ten Things Worth Knowing.

O) That the average duration of hui
man life is about thirty years. (2(
That one-fourth of the persons born
die before the age of six. (3) That
the average rainfall of the globe is
thirty-six inches. (4) Thatthe wettest
place in the world is Southwestern
Assam. The average rainfall there is
about six hundred inches. (5) That
saltpeter is kind of salt, also called
nitre, found pure in the ground i'm
some parts of the world, especially in
Arabia, Persia and India. Co That
emery is mineral found mostly on the
island of Naeros in the Grecian Archi-
pelago. 1t is ground up and sifted into
powder of different degrees of fineness.
CO That the word "caico " is derived
from Calicut, seaport of India, from
which calicoes were first brought. (8)
That the word muslin " is derived
from Moussal, in Asiatic Turkey. where
it was first made. COZ That the word
cambria is derived from Cambria. the
name of town in France, where II
was first made. Q0) That cork is the
outer bark of kind of oak which
grows in countries around the Medi-
terranean.-Mdudn and EIpress.

How Various Nations Sleep.

In the tropics men sleep in ham
mocks or upon mats of grass. The
East Indian unrolls his light portable
charpoy or mattress, which in the
morning is again rolled together and
carried away by him. The japanese lie
upon mating with stiff, uncomfort-
able wooden neck-rest. The Chinese
use low bedsteads, often deliberately
carved, and supporting only mats or
coverlids. A popularity of the Ger
man bed is its shortness; besides that
it frequently consists in part OF a large
down pillow or upper mattress whlGn
spreads over the person, and usually
answers the purpose of all the other
ordinary bedclothing combined; In
England the old four posted bedstead
is still the pride of the nation, out the
iron or brass bedstead is fast becoming
universal. The English beds are the
largest beds in the world. The ancient
Greeks and Romans had their beds sup
ported on frames, but not flat like ours
The Egyptians had a couch OF Pc

He Had Sairey's Eyes.

He was a little, white-haired with
cred up old man, with weather-beaten
face peerng over scraggy fringe of
chin whiskers. He sat in rear seat of
the last car of the Cape train, gazing
