DR.. M. j. Davis is a prominent physician OF
Lewis, Cass County, Iowa, and has been active.
" engaged in the practice of medicine at that
place for the past thirty-fve years. On the
18th OF May, while in Des Moines, en- route to
Chicago, he was suddenly taken with an at
tack Of diarrhHa. Having sold Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and DiarrhHae Remedy for the
past seventeen years, and knowing its RELIABLE

pretty complexion is a boon TO
every woman who is so fortunate to
nave 1t, for it not only adds to the
beauty, but 1t testities to the good health
OF lts possessor. Consequently it may
De' When not as 1t should be, improved
by care OF the diet, by the proper use of
the path, and by avoiding whatever
makes one i'll, or even dull or apathetic.
One or the most veXing OF the enemies
OF q good complexion are blackheads,
or llesh worms, which are very liable to
degenerate Into ugly-looking white
plnples. They are not endowed with Il
life of their own, although this Is the
general belief concerning them. They
are simply the result of uncleanliness,
for the oily matter eXuded by the pores
forms these black specks, which dis
honor the prettiest face and are in
reality nothing but accumulated dirt.
When blackheads have once been per-
mitted to form it is quite n difficult
matter to get rid of them. Many ap-
pllcatlonS are recommended for the
purpose; for instance, bicarbonate Of
soda dissolved in hot water, boraX
water, white egg applied to the tissues,
all these substances are only successful
for u brief period, and then too often
repeated are worse than the evil they
are suppose to cure. The only way Of
getting permanently rid Of blackheads
Is to thoroughly wash, night and morn
Ing, with water as warm az can be
borne, and then bathe the face for ten
minutes at least in tepid milk by the
aid of soft and very fine sponge.
Continue this for month, and you will
find that your skin has become pure
and sweet as baby's.

before last. Lieutenant Governor
Chapleau delivered the address of well
come, and here is an extract from the
same:
Placid I am, content, serene;

And chunks of oleomargarine
Upon its tasteless sides | spread.
The egg l eat was never laid
By any cackling, feathered hen:
But from the Lord knows what It's made
In Newark by unfeathered men.

With fragrant chlcory so cheap:
Or with the best black tea In town.
Dried willow leaves-l calmly sleep.
But If from mans vile arts | flee
And drink pure water from the pump,
! gulp down infusorlae,
And hideous rotatoriae,
And wriggling polygastricae,
And Shiny diatomaceae.
And hard-shelled orphryocercinae
And doublebarreled kolpodae,
Non-loricated ambroeilae
And various animalculae
Of middle, high and low degree;
For nature just beats all creation
In multiplied adulteration.

appearance with Charles Hawtrey at

tice Van in Harvest" For the next
year or two she played small parts as
q member of various companies tour

pearance was in melodrama. Later she
went to the st. James theater under
the management of Rutland Barring

West.
NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-The volume of
trade elbows some falling off compared
with the week before, as was to 9 expect
ed, owing to holiday, aside from which
there are several not unexpected unfavor-
able features. The recent advance In iron
and steel prices, based on . more active de.
mand for those metals, has evidently been
too rapid. and not only demand, bat re-
Gently advanced prices have gone off, steel
billets reacting from SIC to SIS so, and
Bessemer pig iron being shaded. The
recent hrmness In wire and nails has dis
appeared, and while there ID little
doubt a moderate improvement will be
maintained in this line of industry during
the year, beginnings are likely to be halt
ing. Improved sales of cotton goods at
eastern and western cities are accompanied
with explanations that they are due to cut
prices, an outcome of which In New Fog
land in some instances Is reduced wages of
operatives. Print cloths are lower and de-
msnd for woolens ia as slow as heretofore.
Prices of wooden goods are shaded, which
results in slight increase in volume dis.
tributed.
The most encouraging feature of the
week Is q report from Chicago that whils
store business has fallen off order business
has increased, 90 that the total volume OF
transactions In staple lines is fully equal
to that of year ago. Boston reports nc
material change in business, but improved

WASHINGTON, Feb. % Representative
McEttrick of Boston was authorized this
morning to make favorable report 70 the
house on the bill granting a pension to
the widow of General John N. Corse.
The attendance of members of the commit

any previous meeting owing to the per-
sonsl friendship of several members for
General Corse. but some opposition was
shown to the bill because of the
amount allowed. Mr.. McEttrfok over
came this opposition and secured a uusni-
mous report by an eloquent appeal to
his ats cistes based upon the distinguished
services which General Corse rendered In

mans requ.ss to "hold on; 81 am short

which General Corse recsived there and a

The bill has already passed the senat,
through the efforts of Senator Gallipge
without opposition, and much stress va
laid there upon the fact that General Cors
never applied for a pension or accepted
one while he WAS alive to labor for hi
