SOAP. and TO discover new uses for 1t daily.
For annoying irritations, chahngs and ex-
coriations of the skin and mucous membrane or
too free or offensive perspiration it has proved
most grateful.
In the preparation Of curative washes, solu-
tions. etc., it is most valuable; possessing, by
means of its combination with CUTIcURA, pecu-
liarly purifying, cleansing and soothing pro-
perties. 1t is thus enabled TO heal mucous irrita-
tions, the cause Of many annoying and debilitat-
ing weaknesses, while it imparts strength to

CUTICURA SOAP possesses antlseptic pro-
perties and is capable of destroying microscopic
life in many forms.
There is no difference between the skin and
the mucous membrane except that one is dry
the other moist. Hence CUTIcURA SOAP exerts
the same purifying soothing, and healing in-
huence in one case as in the other.

tivated everywhere as the most effective skin

She Is Making prOselytes in.England by
Means of object Lessons.
In England there are two kinds Of women
recognized in sociological classiheations-the
''new woman" and 1.-THE other kind Of a
woman" These are merely convenient
terms designed to suPplant the stilted ''ad-
yanced woman" and the commonplace
woman" writer. who evidently likes the
first mentioned describes a bicycle tour IN
dertaken by her.
The new woman has been on tour in the
provinces. in the hope, doubtless, Of convert
ing England 10 her neWness. At least, l sup
pose Miss Bacon is a new woman. At dawn,
on August 3, she mounted her bicycle in Lon
don and made iOr the east coast. Thence she
iourneyed by way OF Peterborough YORK and
Durham TO Edinburgh. and then back again
to London, through the lake district and
Chester. Altogether Miss Bacon covered
200 miles, anu wore rational dress all the
way. And no one. [ am glad to hear, even
laughed at her. Nor has the tour been barren
OF prOselytes.
Among the lakes she ran into a National
Home Reading party, which seems 10 have
consisted mainly of the other kind of woman
in irrational costumes. Miss Bacon took
them up Skiddaw as an object lesson. And
when came down. To- the other kind Of
woman was all muddy and bedraggled,
while the new woman was nice and tidy.
And so The other kind OF woman is thinking
OF becoming rational.

weird flower, one Of the uncanny mushrooms
that sometimes comes to us from Paris, and
the mere sight of it recalls a certain incon-

Fathers and mothers of all fashions at least

less resent openly, and with no mincing of
manners, any new whim Of la mode that

The first flower bonnet went down the
streets OF Paris followed by the boots OF the
multitude, and even stones. Foreign fashions
are stared at and audibly commented on by
the passers by; and one OF our countrywo-

once so amazed in Paris by remarks on her

Charity begins at home with those who

crown. Besides this Army and Navy officers
are constantly dying. and over and above the
money spent on a funeral junket. always pro-

pockets and buys house and lot for the
widow OF the deceased. But so far from re-

The young fellow was extremely difIident,
and very much in love with the girl.
He had made half dozen attempts to offer
her his heart and hand, but on each occasion
he had fallen short.
To add to the seriousness of the situation,
the girl was ready to accept him as soon as
the proposal was in definite shape.
Even the mother was willing, but latterly
she had grown tired of the dilatory tactics
and Fabian policy Of the suitor, and had
kicked on his coming so often and staying so
late.
One night, after three hours Of struggle on
his part, and much delicate encouragement on
the part OF the girl. he had seized her hand
convulsively, dropped on his knees impetu-
ously. and was about one-hith through an i'm
passioned appeal TO her to be his'n, when the
mothers voice sounded clear on the night
from ths head OF the stairs.
