lance, for it consists in finding model
both stylish and comfortable and
which may, at the same time, prove
judicious economy. The Mcdowell
Fashion Magazines are precisely cal.
culated to give the desired information
on these matters, for they contain the
best and largest variety of new models

and "Paris Album Of Fashion" each
cost $3.50 per annum, or 35 cents a

THE MURDER OF GOsHORN.
Sensational Confession Made by Vir-
ginia Convict.

A Virginia convict is said to have
confessed that he was a member Of a
gang of moonshiners and countefeiters
who murdered John G. Goshorn, whose
dead body was found in a cave six
miles from Bristol eighteen months
ago. The disappearance Of Goshorn
and his subsequent death is still fresh
in the memory of newspaper readers
all over the country. 1t was thought
at the time that he committed suicide.
He was a life insurance agent and
hailed from Charleston, w. Va. The
story that the convict told is quite
sensational. According to this story
Goshorn, IN hunting silver in the
mountains, came upon them in cave.
They intended to drug him aud carry
him to cave in another part OF the
mountains so that when he recovered
he could not tell from whence he came.
A young doctor in the gang gave him
an overdose of the narcotic and he
died. II this story is true the mystery
in connection with his death is cleared
up.

And now an authority lnvelghs against
steaming the face as preventiveag against
wrinkles, alleging that this is the swift
est and surest process by which to pro-
duce them. "The second layer Of the
skin becomes attenuated, and there is a,
decrease in bulk of the superficial lay
ers," Is the technical explanation which
tho laity will not uhderFtand and does
not need to. The simple fact is sufi-
cient. But why should wrinkles be nch
a red rag TO every woman? They rnust
inevitably come if one lives long enough,
and barring the suppression Of the habit
Of frowning and the avoidance Of dam
gerous cosmetics it seems useless tofight
them.

Once an amusing story was told me
by South sea trader, writes Mrs. Rob
ert Louis Stevenson. He had been in the
habit of carrying al sorts Of timed
meats, which the natives bought with
avidity. Each tin was branded with a
colored picture-a COW for beef, a sheep
for mutton and a fish for sardines.
It happened that the firm who fur
nished the mutton thought it a good
plan to change their labels, that their
goods might be more easily distinguished
from others. The mark chosen was a
red dragon.
The natives came with their copra TO
trade as usual The new tins were
shown them, but they recoiled with hor-
Tor and gave the trader to understand
that they had had some religious in
struction and were not to be deluded in
to eating timed devil

witty and clever as Reed and Sherman,
are still willing to give funny object
lesson of the muddle that any attempt
to adjust tariff duty on the protective
theory must incur. Our contemporaries
would handle the other 4, 1000 industries
with the same sort Of beg.the question
opalescent style that they are bestowing
on the glass industry. They don't see
each other, hence nobody sees them.
There is absolutely no middle ground
II an industry is admitted as a public
beggar, we have no right to complain
that IL increases It's demands; that IL
lies about what it has got and what 1t
needs; that it steals; that it threatens to
apply dynamite to destroy our house.
That is the way Of a beggar; that is
the way, too, Of an adventures.
The only safe and sure thing for q
legislator to do, is to levy taxes on a few
articles sufficient to bring in revenue
to support the government, and then 60
home. At least one-half Of the entire
needs Of the government can be raised
from spirits, beer, tobacco, sugar, tea and
coffee; namely, about $3.50, 900 600.
