EVERY WOMAN

So says Jenness Miller, the famous
lecturer and writer on dress reform
and physical culture, and celebrated
writer in a medical journal says j:
'sFace powders and toilet preparations
have legitimate use in the toilette of
every woman and use properly made
need not, any more than the proper
use of a perfume, displease any one,
while. it can not be denied that they
add to the personal beauty and at
tractiveness and give to the wearer an
expression that can be interpreted by
any practical observer to mean that
THIS WOMAN is NEAT AND CAREFUL
ABOUT HER PERSON AND HOLDS A JUST
PRIDE IN BEAUTIFYINC HERSELF. 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
Medical College and P. A. surgeon
U. S. M. H. S., writes without re-
serve on a kindred subject What
he says:
CHICAGO, Jan. 81, 1888.
w. M. Wisdom-Dear Sir: As
you requested, have examined the
formula of your toilet preparation
called Robertine. I can assure you
that the ingredients are both bland
and harmless, and that the compound
would form an excellent application
in irritated conditions of the skin.
Society ladies and noted artistes
throughout the United States unhesi-
tatingly pronounce Robertine the
perfection" in toilet article. Once
tried, always used-such is its history.

you glance over the new effects in black

are the handsomest ever produced.
They are to be had in all sorts of figures,

sketch OF Manager :. w, Hanna.

BIT. John w. Hanna. manager OF the Seattle
opera-house, has done so much for the devel-
opment of theatrical affairs in the Northwest

be read with interest by many. Mr. Hanna was
born IN Freeport, o., where he resided until
ne arrived at the age OF Is. He then moved to-
Aattoon, Ill, engaging in various enterprises
until 1883. Here he acquired considerable
fortune, most OF which was acquired in the
management OF the local theater for twenty
years. He came to Puget sound in June, 1859,
and saw at once the dramatic possibilities OF the
section. he secured control of the Germania
theater, In Tacoma, and made great success of
the house He then became manager of the
new Tacoma opera-house, and under his con-
troll 1t became wonderful social and financial
success. He has also controlled and man.
aged the Olympia theater with signal
success and ability. little more than a
year ago Mr.. Hanna became the
manager OF the Seattle opera-house and quite
recently to become more completely identified
with the city's interests, he has moved his en-
tire family here and taken up permanent resi-

and haring brims, In some instances futed
and cut.
The tendency is decidedly to small capotes,
with low rounded and saucer crowns,
brirns projecting over the face
Black hats are greatly worn. Jet is the
most fashionable trimming.
