woman in Chicago, an apostle of vege-
tarianism and dress reform, who lectures on
these subjects to the maidens of the Windy
City, carries some Of her ideas to an extreme
point. She starts out with the proposition that
for a woman to wear a perfectly plain, close
fitting waist on the street is immodsst. Grant
ing that, she goes ahead and says that shirt
waists, worn without jacket, are likewise
immoral and that no truly modest woman will
appear on the streets without a shawl, jacket or
wrap of some kind.

SEED DISTRIBUTION.

The commencement of the work of dstribut-

been delayed by the lateness of the passage of
the appropriation bill by Congress The force
to perform the work this season will probably
be organized in the beginning of October, and
the distribution will be commenced in the be-

bill has also prevented the Department from
obtaining number of vegetable seeds. notably

Turquoises and opals seem to be the favorise
stones of the season.
Some clever person has said that if woman's
good fairy were to offer to fulfill one wish for her
woman would Immediately and unhesitatingIy
ask for curly hair SO, surely, would she If given
two wishes spend the other in asking for a fair
complexion. mplexion advertisements are al
Turing reading matter to most women, and we'll
advertised specifics generally have good run.
However, such things go in fads. few years
ago it was soap, then certain kind of cream
had big sale, and suddenly almond meal was
demanded by the women, as the papers began
to speak of its virtues as complexion beauti-
fer. Someone started the idea that watermelon
juice was good, and it would be surprising to
know how many women adopted the unplsas-
ant process of rubbing their faces and hands
with watermelon. Anyone who knows water
melon knows what an unpleasant odor the stale
juice has, 1t might be well to add there is 10 ac-
tual proof that the compilations were helped
even after such an ordeal. Another ridiculous
thing is to see colored women purchasing en-
chanting Dew of Roses for the Complexion" and
petals of Roses" powders, in the firm belief
that an intoxicatingly beautiful skin will be
the result. Taking an ordinary newspaper
page for women, sometimes there will be six or
eight different theories for the care of the skin
in different paragraphs. Here are six from one
page Of one issue of Now York paper.
First is an interview with Lady Henry Som
erset. 1t hinges on the fascinating theme: 81

FoR A PRETTY COMPLEXION.

Complexion is all matter of digestion.
Where there is good digestion beautiful COM
plexion is bound to follow. A well-regulated
stomach invariably proclaims itself in good
looking face. Skin-whiteners, faee-washes,
creams greases, and liquid emollients cost far
more money than sour grapes, and are nothing
like as remedial. Plums, blackberries white
and red grapes. peaches, and oranges are among
the table fruits and it is difficult to say which is
the best for pretty complexion.
