suppose the woman who cares
for her personal appearance-and
what woman does not?-thinks more
of the possession of a beautiful COM
plexion than any other charm she
may possess.
This has been recognized and &C
ted upon by those who would furnish
desirable and interesting informa-
ton, and interview after interview
has been published with those who
are notably so fortunate as to possess
this enviable attraction. | heard it
remarked not long since by a woman
who has travelled much, that she be-
lieved there was some preseryative
element in the coal smoke and sui
phurons vapors of a manufacturing
city, for she had always found bright,
clear rosy compilations the rule in
such places, and murky, sallow ones

other place where people are suppos

Whatever particular instructions
the interviewed individuals have

health good complexion is impos-

fresh air exercise for the benefit of
the health. A noted actress in re-

that plain food and very little ice

In a recent number of the North
american Reuieso is an article on
rs Drunkenness Curable?" and it is
answered from the authors own ex-
perience in the affirmative. Frequent
~, however, the appetite for drink
comes back when least expected, and
only time can tell whether or not the
cure be permanent.
We have heard much of late of the
Dwight cure for drunkenness, and,
indeed, the tendency seems to ne 10
treat this great curse more and more
as disease. That after certain
degree of indulgence it becomes such
is generally conceded, and it is a
melancholy fact that it is usually
not until a man recognizes 1T as such,
and feels his own weakness to resist
it that he is willing to make any eff
fort against it. If it be possible to
start again in paths of soberness
those who have become helpless vic
Tins of it's power, the discoverer of
the successful treatment will win
blessings from many impoverished
homes and now hopeless lives.

The City Faith ar4.

The committee on water met in the mayors office last night to meet a com mittee from the New Haven Water com pany in reference to the price to be paid by the city for it's use of water. The price hitherto paid has been 1000, but owing to the increased use on the part of the city it would be necessary at the rate to charge $s2,0 ,0O0 per year. However, the Water company, in order to be just, but generous, offer to furnish the city with water for $20,000. The committee dis cussed the proposition in executive session and will lay the matter before the alder men at their next meeting. The commit tee from the Water company consisted of MT. H. s. Dawson, president of the com pany and ex-officio chairman of the com mittee, John H. Leeds, James English and James D. Dewell.
 The special committee appointed by the board of aldermen to investigate the finances of the New Haven Burial associa- ton held an executive session last night. The committee are at work on their report which will be submitted to the board in a few days.

 and looked very fine. The entrance to the house was festooned with flags and the interior was also prettily decorated. At the front entrance the committee of arrangements was in waiting to welcome their friends and show them the different apartments.

Not the North am.

The New York city papers of yesterday morning erroneously stated that the steam CT c. H. Northam was aground at Black Rock, near College Point. It is evident that if any boat was aground it was not the Northam, as that steamer arrived on time in this city, and the officers of the boat report that nothing of the kind had happened.
 The story was further denied at the office of the company at Belle dock last evening. The agent of the line, MT. Car ter, said: "The Northam went out at mid night, as usual, and fifteen minutes later we received telephone message from New York announcing that she had been strand ed near that city. Possibly some other steamer was seen ashore, but it was none of our boats.

 On account of the early departure of Mir. and Mrs. Charles s. Gray for Red lands, California, the Dwight Place con-. gregation held last night the first one of their regular series of socials some weeks earlier than usual in order that all might meet together with Mir. and Mrs. Gray before they leave. The church parlors were beautifully decorated and small tables scattered about the room gave the room a peculiarly pleasant and home-like appearance. About 300 people took ad- vantage of the opportunity to say good bye and good luck to MT. Gray and his
 wife.
 About 9 o'clock the people were called to order, and after Dr. Twitohell had in ft- ting words opened the series of socials. he paid glowing tribute to the worth of the departing guests. Then in 8 neat and happy speech MT. J. c. North presented
 MT. and Mrs. Gray with a large white onyx clock of exquisite workmanship and
 some souvenir New Haven spoons of unique designs.
 After the presentations were made re- treatments were served and half hour
 was spent in genial conversation. ~s l.. MT. Gray has been connected with Peck & Bishop in this city for some time. He
 has son and two daughters, one of whom is married and lives in Redlands. MT. Gray is an usher in the Dwight Place church, of which he has been long a | member. His wife is the president of the Ladies' Benevolent league and has been prominent in all the interests of the church. They will engage in orange cul- ture in their new home.

 MT. J. 0. North and wife, Mrs. M. s.
 Brownson, MT. and Mrs. c. A. Chatfeld.
 MT. w. G. Cowell, MT. Dennis A. Blakes: | lee and many college students and others. This was, indeed, graphic indication of
 the regard felt for Mir. Gray and wife and for the kindly feelings that follow them to their distant home. Their loss will be felt in the church so long the field of their ac- tivity, and as one of the people present said: ''It will be no easy task to fill theil places"
