Heinrich recognized the Prince OF DARK
ness. and felt himself lost. Putting ms
hand mechanically to the little cross tnae
Katy had given him, he tried to cal ior
helm. aud to murmur his formula of exor-
cisn, but terror choked him; he could
only inter a feeble rattle. The devil seized
Heinrich with his hooked hands by the
shoulders and pushed him by main force
through the floor; then he entered upon
the scene when his cue came, like per-
feet actor.
His inclsive, biting venomous and truly
aiabolic acting at first surprised the spec
tators, What especially produced great
effect was that sharp litter like the graf
( ing OF saw, that laugh OF the damned
blaspheming the joys Of Paradise. Never
had an actor attained such power OF sar-
casn,, such depth of villainy; the audi-
ence laughed, but they trembied. All tne
audience was painting with emotion;
phosphoric sparks glinted from the fingers
of the terrible actor; trains OF sparkling
flame ran from his feet; the light OF the
/ lus,ers grew pale, the footlights shot out
reddish and greensh flashes; sort OF
sulphurous smell reigned in the theatre;
the spectators were, AS IT were, delirious,
and thunders of frantic applause greeted
each phrase of the marvellous Mephis-
topheles, who often substituted verses OF
his own invention for the verses of the
poet and the substitution was always
happy and accepted with transports.
Katy, who was In the theatre, WAS In a
state of extraordinary alarm: she did not
recognize her dear Heinrich; she presaged
some misfortune with that spirit OF
dvination which love gives.
The performance ended amidst in
describable enthusiasm. When the cur

topheles with loud cries. He was sought
for in vain; but at last "A scene shifter came
and told the manager that Heinrich had
been found in the cellar. where he had
probably fallen through trap.

clothing was burned in places, and on his

A Graceful Carriage.

"A girl who sits ungracefully is a
rarity" said an artist 1.-The sex's
poses in a chair are instinctively and
unconsciously slightly. Then why will
not girls practice good carriage. They
spend hours of prayer and effort over
their bands and their makeup, yet
everybody knows a fine figure is the
most important requisite of all. Any
face can be rendered attractive by ex-
preston Any face for which we care
becomes beautiful to us. But even
love can only soften dislike to regret
over round shoudered, hollow chest
ed form. Good carriage induces a good
figure 1t at least throws such lines as
you have into an adjustment of harmony.
1t will make your dresses tit better,
last longer and look finer while they
last.
"A head well carried comes soon to
be well poised. Shoulders well squared
back fill up your bodice and improve
your silhouette as well as your profile.
Hips well balanced make your gowns
drape gracefully in spite of your dress
maker Feet that come down to the
ground prettily come near to being
pretty feet. Even an ugly hand es-
capes criticism if well used short

we'll II women would spend their
time bathing, rubbing and exercising
they would have something to show
for it. Instead. they sit around in
masks, or make themselves hideou,
over night. They use washes, prescrip
tons and oils, and they don't hall
wash. Oh, yes, that is true. Many
women, especially those addicted tC
greases, do not half wash. Absolute

The United States is a numbering and
dlscordant name adventitiously ac-
qured and unwisely perpetuated. Be.
lore the republic as such was forlnu-
lated there was tolerabe unaniInity on
on the part of the several states in re-
sentlng the aggressions of Great Brit
ain, and they acted in unison in SUD
port of their rights. These different
states, when acting together, were
spoken of as the United States and the
name survived national organization.
1t is an infelicitous misleading and
unsuitable name for great power
perhaps the greatest on the planet.
Therefore we suggest that the name of
The republic be changed to Pennland.
name that pleasantly unites euphony
and appropriateness William Penn

history who always dealt fairly and
