HOW TO GET YOUNG AND STAY so,

A Companions Piece IN Professor Biaikie's
"ifow 10 get strons."
There is only one thing which pleasss
a woman more than To tell her that she
does not look as old "a she il. and that Is
20 know that You are telling her the
truth. Some one lately spoke in print
OF seeing SO great crowd Of women
one afternoon pouring out OF . public
hall that the writer supposed there must
have been matinee in progress. He
learned that il was only lecture upon
the care OF the complexion and the pre-
yention OF wrinkles
In the consideration OF this interesting
question three different classes of women
have been interviewed. Their repre-
sentatives are society favorite. grand
mother who is seriously thought 10 look
as young rs her daughters, and a ner-
vous, overworked literary ''haek."
First the society woman. who is a
well known leader in metropolitan cir
cles. Although her children are in their
twenties. the most searching gaze Of
another woman fails TO discover trace OF
more than thirty years in the beautiful
calm Of her face. Her secret lies in That
word calm" She says that she never
permits herself to grow excited nor
enthusiastic. She viii not be exalted
nor depressed whatever happens-be-
canse she will not. Feeling always
leaves its trace. 50 she schools herself
not to feel. The truth of her theory is
manifest when one watches the counte-
nances of nine out of ten women and
notices into how many expressions they
change in as many moments. Each of
those changes leaves some autograph be-
hind.
The Young old lady insists that her
preventive for wrinkles is the simple
rule never to wash her face in cold
water. This reminds one of the much
used bathing of the temples, sides of the
face and back of the neck with hot
water after fatigue which has left those
nerves tired too.
The woman journalist has her own
method. not so much as beautifer IS
that she may compose herself before
seeking what would otherwise be sleep
less pillow. She goes alone into dark
room. seats herself IN an easy chair, drops
her hands in her lap. rests her feet upon
stool (this is an important part, to get
al her weight from her feet. leans her
head back. with closed eyes. and reso-
lutely makes and keeps her mind blank
for the space of five minutes During
this time she drives away every vestige
OF thought as completely as though she
were what she tries to be for the nonce
completely obliterated. This she does
every evening of her life. All but the
dark room part she attempts as often as
she can snatch five consecutive minutes
throughout her busy day-three or four
times perhaps. The result is shown no
less on her temper than on her forehead.
The one is as unruffled IS the other.

ERIE, Pa. special: Edward Cady, a
we'll known mechanic OF this city,
while suffering from morphine de-
bauch planned the murder Of his en-
tire family. Cady gave his son Walter
q heavy dose of morphine. Cady first
dispatched little Bertha, who was too
much engrossed by her school studies
to observe her fathers actions. He
then sent a ball through Walters
brain as he lay on the bed suffering
from the poison he had been given a
few hours prior. Cady turned to kill
his Oldest son, lad OF 10 years, but
the latter ran out, escaping the deadly
missile, and called to his mother.
Baby Hazel was the next victim he
added to the pile, but Mrs. Cady's dis
tracted cries caused the murderer to
pause long enough 10 enable her to
snatch the child. Cady glared = mo-
ment at his wife, and then. seeming to
relent, turned and fired a ball through
his own disordered brain. Mrs.
Cady is a most pitiable object, and it
is feared she will lose her reason,

WASHINGTON special: Secretary
Ores ham declined to talk in regard to
the published report that the revenue
cutter Corwin was to carry . message
for the state department. from San
Francisco to Honolulu. There Ia
reason to suppose, however, that the
story is substantially correct Gresham
was busy with the dispatches which
are to 90 on the Corwin. OF what
these contain nothing can be learned.
The fact of the dispatching of the Cor
win so hastily leads to the surmiss
that the administration has changed
its policy towards the islands,
