ALCOHOL FOR THE TOILET.
One Wonlan's Experience With
Good Cure for Many Evils.
Philadelphia Times.


Some women say that alcohol is a bad
thing for the skin. but those women have
either used it unreasonably often or know
nothing at all about it, for there is
really no cosmetic that woman
can use with such good results as alcohol
diluted with the purest rose water.
If your skin is particularly dry, perhaps
it would be as well not to use alcohol more
than once in two or three days, but once a
day ought not to hurt the most delicate
skin, and will make a vast Improvement
in an oily skin.
Everybody knows that frequent face
washing is bad for the complexion, and if
when you begin 10 feel sticky as to chin
and oily as to nose, you rub your face with
a fine flannel cloth wet with alcohol, after

with delicate color and quite free from

every atomic specimen of dust, it is a
splendid thing for biackheads, and its
daily use, if persevered in, will eradicate
the ugly blemishes.

An Easy Way to Get Them.

Where the waveIets play on a lovely bay,
And the goldfish leap In sport,
Where the parrots swing and canaries sing
And the rich ships ride to porI;
There, under the sea, the divers be,
And where the maelstrom whirls.
They come TO the Top with a hard-won CROP
Of beautiful, shining pearls.
But here just 90 to a store you know,
For SOZODONT you pay;
And before you think, your gums are piHk,
And your breath like newmown hay.
And without grain of the divers pain,

And have mouths full OF pearls.

aPass the BILL

TOtss Editor or the Rsg1s.s-:
SIR:-You preach from q right text
when "PasS the bill" is your theme.
Yes, pass the Wilson bill, the noblest
embodiment OF popular rights as against
special privileges that has sought legiS-
latiye sanction 10 our country this many
long year. The people undoubtedly
are for emancipation from the thralldom
OF the plutOcrats. II is a war OF indie
Dendence that is waged by the friends
OF tariff reform as distinctly as was that
which followed the immersion of the
taxed tea in Boston hsrbor long ago.
The men who are fighting il are the
true heroes who will give lustre TO our
American JiH dc steele.
The thousand, or the ten thousand,
ii you will, surely not more, who would
pervert the legislative powers of noble
government to the laying on Of taxes,
not for that government but for them,
may clamOr aud howl land, truly, is not
the wicked clam0r Of ten aysriciOus
plutocratS louder than the righteous
clam0r OF ten thousand suffering bread
winnerS2) and so may brighten some
who are right Of heart but timid of soul.
The brave and strong will not falter, but
will go right on in the line of sacred
duty. will "pass the bill" and will win
the applause Of their cOuntrymen and
renOwn from posterity.
Two years from this date will not find
q responsible man in the lana 70 pro-
pose the renewal of the Mckinley
scheme of robbery or its like, any more
than 20 propose the restoration OF slav-
cry. The heartleSs combine that effect
ed that scheme, once broken, will never
again combine. Our government, freed
aud divorced from It's unholy alliance
with private plumber, with William L..
Wilson seated by a courageous Democ-
racv in the chair of the President, will
pursue its destined course to aElorious
prosperity. RIGHT.
