Roanoke has population of $4,000.
Its citizens are from nearly every State
in the Union. Eight years ago it had
600 people. It's growth at present is on
moro solid basis and more rapid than
ever before in it's history.
Roanoke is located at the junction of
tho Shenandoah and Roanoke valleys.
It's altitude is 007 feet and it is sur
rounded by rich agricultural and min
eral country.
Roanoke is distant Just eight hours
ride from Washington and Norfolk, nine
from Baltimore. twelve from Philadel-
phia and fourteen from New York. It
is situated at the junction Of the Shen-
andoah Valley and Norfolk and West
ern railroads, both trunk lines, and is
easily reached from any section of tho
country.
The Roanoke and Southern railroad
is now being built to this place from
Winston, n. c., and will in years
time open up the trade of the Carolinas
to this section. The Valley Branch of
the baltimore and Ohio runs to Lexing-
ton, forty miles distant, and road filing
the connecting link will be constructed
to Roanoke in Il short time.
Tho growth of tho city dates from
1882, when the headquarters of the Nor
folk and Western were removed here
from Lynchburg, the Shenandoah Val
ley road was completed, and tho Roam
olle Machine Works, employing at pre-
sent !, ZOO hands, was established. Since
then millions of dollars have flowed
into the city in the establishment of
manufactures and other business enter
prises.
Coal and iron and tho rich agricul-
tural lands of the section have con-
tributed to the growth.
Roanoke has siXty-five miles of streets
and eight miles Of street railway inside
the corporate limits. dummy line ex-
tends to Vinton, a distance of two miles
east, and to Salem, six miles west
Throughout the city electricity, in a
short time, will take the place of horses
as motive power.
The water works are sufficient to fur
nish city of $4,000 inhabitants. The
supply comes from a pure, cold spring
that gushes from the side of Mill noun
tain, and is without equal in any city
in the country. 1t is undoubtedly q
specific for many forms of kidney dis
ease.
Light is furnished by the Gas Com
pany and the Electric Light and Motor
Power Company.
The property valuation, according to
the assessment of this year, is nearly
$4,000, 600, besides the railroad property
and the Roanoke Machine Works The
increase in tho value of resltv was
about S5,0GU,U00 over tho PREVIOUS
assessment Of four years ago; ant pres
ent values are many millions in xcess
of those given.
There are four fine hotels-Hotel Roa-
noke, the Ponce do Leon, the Continent
tai, and Hotel FeliX-besides number
of smaller ones. All of them are
crowded and constantly turning away
guests.

Perfumes should be INDUCED in by
every one, for their stimulating and re-
treshing properties cannot be ovgresti-
mated. They are health and beauty-giv-
ing, especially lavender, lemon, roses,
violets, sage and benZoin. Those with
pale compilations can in time bring color
10 their cheeks by bathing with benzoin
water or lait virginia..
Thick lips can be reduced by rubbing
with tannin.
Pale lips can be'induced TO show color
by friction with black grapes.
Lemon, orange and cucumber peelS are
excellent for the complexion. Let them
soak in your water Jug, for they not only
soften but tonify and ireshen the COM
plexion, keeping the flesh healthy and
firm.
When wiping the face always wipe up
ward, for this saves many wrinkle and
fIllness under the chin. The eyes should
always be wiped toward the nose, as il
presses out the fine lines from the cor
ners.
a good plan to preserve the skin from
becoming set and old is to give the face
perfect rest four or five times day. No
matter how busy ones life is, ii possible
to lie down for even five minutes at Il
time, close the eyes and keep the face in
repose. II this is done daily it viii pre-

many women.
Food powder will not harm the skin;
on the contrary, it gives 4 soft, cool look

the best to use. 1t is a good plan to cleanse
the face prior to retiring to rest with a
little cream of milk of cucumber. Apply
