EngIand's PenalOn List I. Small.

New York World: England's pension
list for the last fiscal year has just been
published, and the figures will astonish
our own tax-ridden citizens. Her last

ours by but few years, and she has had
the Indian mutiny and many little wars
with savages within 40 years. More
over, she has large civil pension list.
Yet the total amount paid out for all
kinds OF pensions for the year ending
March, 1892, was 81, ,58S. S62-less than
we paw as the result of our civil war.
The pensions for the civil list amounted

locks into half curls on the fore
head and temples, but do not

but not on the neck. The next pictule
shows q style of face that would be

less unique hair dressing than the one
described and shown. but which is thus
made really beautiful in a dreamy
southern fashion.
A third type OF crowning gldRy, which
does not accommodate itself we'll to the
central part, is the very fine and thick
dark red hair, and this is especially true
if it accompanies long neck and deli
cate features. Then it should be worn
short and brushed back directly from
the forehead line, the only downward
brushing being at the back of the head.
The hair must be carefully clipped
closely at the back. O little longer above
the ears and longer still from the tenn
pies to the top. The kind OF hair for
which this dressing ia suggested is Wig
orouE in growth and invariably shows
new hair about the roots. This deli
cate shadowy growth about the fore
head line lends a soitened effect about
the face, and the delicate beauty and
fine shaping OF the head are displayed
to every advantage.

then do it yourself. Get the very
best peroxide OF hydrogen, and don't
use hair dye. Wash the hair thor

dampen it again evenly from roots to

hair with a comb dipped in it till the
hair is dripping wet. Then dry it with

q lock before you dye, and then COM
pare it with the dyed result. By no
other way will you realize just how
much OF change you are making.
The peroxide will not hurt the hair, in
deed, If the locks were clean when it
went on, it will make it beauti-
fully silky and glossy. Keep it
from the scalp as much as pos
sible, for you may notice that where
it gets on the fingers it makes little
painless white marks, but what does get
on the scalp seems only to simulate the
growth of the hair. The difficulty is
that the roots come out 30 fast, and
when you try to touch them up to
match the length, you get the dye all
over again, and the extra coats make
the hair yellower and yellower, till you
become hopelessly sn "orange-top."
Dull blonde hair or dali light brown
hair takes the dye with best effect, and
with so much improvement that the
trick seems almost as legitimate as for a
woman to powder her nose.
There is a popular notion that only
the classic-featured girl should do her
hair with Greek fillet effect. But the
girl with a pretty, piquant face, far and
away from classic, may, if her head is
good shape and her hair pretty, make
herself delicious challenge to admira-
tion by discreet use of the fillet. Select
color that contrasts we'll with the
shade Of the hair-white for a light
color, or silver or gold for dark hair.
Let the little locks about the face be
conventionally soft and fuzzy. in case
you possess. as does the girl in this final
sketch. piquant and irregular features.
Don't draw the bands too tight. and
fasten them securely under the coil Of
hair. Three bands is the most gem
orally becoming. If the face is
wide, let the bands be all
we'll towards the back of the head that
a widened effect is not given from the
front; that is, arrange the bands go they
only show at the side. Then present
your profile to people as much as pos-
sible. Don't mind the least bit if your
nose isn't Greek, the girl who has a
Greek nose will likely envy you to dis
traction. Also, remember that piquancy
ia always added to an irregular face by
lifting the chin little and 30 tipping
the face prettily.

What Causes PimpIes?

Clogging Of the pores or mouths OF the seb&
ceous glands with sebum or oily matter.
The plug of sebum in the centre of the pimplg
is called q blaclkhead, grub, OF comedone.
Nature will not allow the clogging OF the poreg
to continue long, hence,
Inflammation, pain, swelling and redness,
later pus or matter forms, breaks or is opened,
the plug comes out and the pore is once more
free.
There are thousands Of these pores in the face
alone, any one of which is liable to become
clogged by neglect or disease.

Despite this general rule of center
parting, there are still some girls who
have never cut the bang, whose locks
are all Of an equal length about the
forehead line. Such hair dressed with
q central parting is often trying to the
face and distinctly aging. For such this
initial picture shows a pretty dressing.
Te attain it comb all the hair straight
back into the coil; then, with firmly
pressed palms. push 1t forward little
SO that it lifts slightly in soft ridge
back OF the forehead and temple line.
This effect may be added to by slipping
the iron under the locks about the face
close to the roots of the hair and giving
one turn. At the top of the head the
lock may be caught once or twice more
away from the roots and towards the
ends, giving one turn each time. Care
full brushing must supply glossy CLEAN
on the curve OF each turn. The large
featured face takes this fashion with
dainty and wholesome effect.
Ii all women dressed their hair &C.
Cording to one rule painful ssmeness
would result, and many a woman would
wear her hair in style unbecoming to
her. There are rules and rules, but
often az fashions may change, when a
really beautiful girl has wisely adopted
q style OF hair dressing that suits her
type she had better stick to it. 1t is the
girl who has no particular style of
beauty who can change and be pretty,
no matter how she dresses her hair.
The really handsome girl may easily
spoil her beauty entirely by a bad
arrangement of her hair. Delicate
features, slender long neck and very
heavy hair must be arranged with care

exercising much care and delicacy in

often as it should be. The wide scrag-
gy part, from the middle and along the
edge of which very short and bristly
hairs stand up, as well as cloudy lot
OF downy short ones, spelling the even
effect and the whiteness of the line, is
the usual apology for part. The long
hairs are dragged away from the part,
the color OF the scalp as shown inclines
to mugginesa and the hair shows no
gloss on either side of it. All this is
wrong, but worst of all there is usually
q trace of whitish dust and dandruf ct

where it is brushed from the separating

by amounting the head with vaseline, and

OVERLAND TRAIN ROBBERY.
THE BIG SWAG SECURED AND
SEORETED.
Large Rewards offered - Theories
of the Detectives on the
Matter.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Oct. 13.-It is
now settled that over $4,000 was
the value of the booty secured by
the two train robbers who held up
the central overland between this
city and Davisvill, and Wells Far
go & Co., and the Southern
Pacific railroad recognize the fact
that they have no ordinary GRIM
inals to deal with, conseq uently
they are eXerting every effort to
run the men down. The two cor
porations have offered rewards of
$500 for each robber, and $1,000
for the recovery Of the coin. This,
in addition to the usual state re-
ward. The rewards are sufficiently
large to put the most skilled de-
tectives and bravest officers on the
trail. AS yet, however, the robbers
are free. They secured four fat
sacks of coin, three full Of gold, one
Of silver. Two contained $4,000
each, and in the third was $4,000,
sack of silver between $1,000 and
$4,000.
Detectives are working on three
different theories. All Of these
agree that the men were eX-em-
ployes of the Southern Pacific and
reside in this city.
One of the theories is that the
robbers buried the money and after
disposing of their arms, masks,
etc, crossed into Sacramento. 9th
ers claim the money is buried
where the engine was reversed, but
that the robbers crossed to Sacra-
mento in a boat.
Another theory is that the men
had a buggy standing near, into
which they loaded the money and
drove to where a confederate await
ed their arrival with boat. Wheel
tracks confirm this.
