She Used the Wrong towder

A Young lady living on North
Meridian street had an experience
the other evening. She went up
stairs, and had just turned out the
light when she heard a caller ask
for her. She made a dive for her
powder puff in the dark and busted
her face with powder. She went
down to the parlor an found dis
tinguished stranger, on whom she was
anxious to make an impression. He
appeared rather nonp!ussed at her
looks, but being a man of the world,
which means man wise enough not
to tell a woman her faults, he said
nothing. She sat ard chatted grace
fully, and had delightful evening.
AS soon as he had gone she rushed
to the mirror, as every girl does
when her beau leaves. She gave
one scream and went OF into
Mysteries, for in her haste and the
dark she mad dipped her powder puff
into box of pulverizod charcoal,
and she had the make up of an
amateur cOlOred minstrel The
contrast TO her dainty organdie
gown and blonde hair was worry
funny. but she never smilel again

was here also shown the purest and

five per cent more leavening gas per
