WHAT THEY ALL SAY.
Beautiful Women Give Some Wonderful Information Concerning Female Beauty We Do Not Think It Will Take Women Long To Act Upon This Idea.

The poet and philosopher. Ralph Waldo Emerson, says :
 "If eyes were made for seeing,
 Then beauty is it's own excuse for
 being"
 Beauty of feature and elegance of form have ever been the desire of the feminine mind. And 1t is a perfectly laudable and natural ambition. Women are born to sway the hearts and minds of men as much by their beauty and attractiveness, as by the subtler charms of goodness and purity
 And yet, how few women attain the beauty which should be theirs, and in those few who are beautiful how quickly their beauty fades This is wrong. Women are naturally beauti- ful-at least of pleasing and attractive appearance-and in nearly all the cases where women lack these phy- sical charms. the fault is their own.
 Good looks and beautiful forms are entirely dependent upon good health. One must have strong nerves and pure blood to be beautiful. Failing to have these, is to fail of good looks and fine

Stevenson's Unconscious Adventure.
 From Harper's Weekly.1


 During his last visit to this country Robert Louis Stevenson escaped very unpleasant experience and never knew it. A journalist, who knew Stevenson by his published portraits, entered a railway car at Long Branch, and saw the famous author seated in corner, with black square box on the opposite seat and rubber tube dangling from it. The conductor knew the journalist, and said to him, pointing to MT, Steven son:
 "I am going to put that man with the long hair off the train. He is smoking. I asked him not to, but he's been at it again while I've been out of the car.'
 "He is not smoking" said the jour nalist; "that is some device for carry ing medicine, in the form of a vapor, which he inhales in his lungs. He is an invalid. That is Robert Louis Ste venson, the novelist"
 The conductor seemed interested, but only for a minute. "I don't care" said he. Tt doesn't matter who he is. l

Speculation at the Stock Exchange Wal
 

Speculation at the Stock Exchange Was Strong.
 New York, Jan. Misrepresentation at the stock exchange was strong to-day, all though the dealings were again of a retail character. The strength of the the introduction of the Sherman f1nan- cial bill, which is generally considered the best measure yet introduced to mil itate the adverse condition now prevail ing in the financial world. Again the impression prevails that the senate will take favorable action in the matter of the Patterson pooling bill, and there are some who profess to believe that congress will take up the Union Pacific debt matter and adjust it before the close of the session. These enthusiasts followed up their beliefs by buying
 stocks.
 The engagement of S4,400,000 gold for shipment to Europe tomorrow did not dampen the ardor of the bulls, and the market ruled strong almost from start to finish. The gold to be shipped to- morrow, except $SbO.O0O forwarded by Barring, Magoun & Co.,, Is understood to be for Paris. The Barring gold will be shipped to- London.

 the percentage fixed in her department, by say $1 ,000, she would receive a com
 mission on, this amount of about 21a per cent, or $25. Besides this she would have her salary raised for the next six months by.an amount equal to the com mission per week that she had earned on her sales. In this example it would be ne-twentieth of $25, or SIPS advance per week.
 At the Hub the salesmen are all re- joicing over the money which they re- ceived last week. MT. H. c. Levi, the proprietor shared more than $7, 300 with the persons in his store who had work ed there over three years Not one of them received less than weeks sal ary, and many were paid more than they could make in whole month.
 There is no regular system of distri- button, each employee being paid ac- cording to the faithfulness of his ser vice as reported at the office.
 About 75 of the 250 employees in the establishment are now working under the system, and Mir Levi says that he has never had better service and great CT faithfulness in his store. He objects to set rules for distribution, because he thinks they take away the privilege of rewarding especial faithfulness in lines which do not largely increase the amount of sales.
 A large number of firms in the city also have a quasi system of profit shar- ing under which faithful employees are allowed to buy stock in the company and receive the same dividends which are paid to the head of the house. About twenty-five of Rand & McNally's employees are stockholders, and not one holds less than five shares. As soon as the balances for the last year. are made and the dividends are declared they will receive their profits, Secretary TIC. Haines says that thus far the system has worked very well.
 Hibbard Spencer Bartlett & Co. rtlr- sue a similar method and they com bine with it the payment of commissions to statesmen for excess sales. Other con- cerns which allow their employees to buy stock are Lyon & Healy, A. H. Revell &t Co, R. T, Crane X Co.,. and Kelley, Maus & Co.,, Mr Healy of Lyon & Healy and MT. Clover of A. II.

Successful Operation of the System in Some Big Chicago Dry Goods Stores.

 Big Chicago Dry Goods Stores'
 From the Chicago Record.l
 Tn each of the big downtown stores where the profit sharing system is in force of the employees will soon be made happy by the distribution of the fund set aside for that purpose from the profits of the firm. Early in the year business was exceedingly dull, but tow ard the holidays it frightened up so preceptibly that the share for the em- ployes will in many cases be snug lit tie sums.
 The employees of the Carson, Pirie, Scott & Co. will receive a large amount of money. The system under which it is distributed is something unique, and at the end of the first years work the company is greatly pleased with the re- suits MT. J. H. Wood says that it has greatly improved the work of the sales men, has swelled the amount of sales made, and largely increased the wages paid.
 All of the salespeople who had been in the employ of the company one year or more were then informed that if the amount of their sales for six months ex- ceeded the total for the same period of time during the previous year they would receive a commission-averagin 21s per cent. throughout the store-on the excess Immediately the young men and women behind the counters began to increase their efforts to sell goods, and when the distribution was made last July some surprising results were shown. Shop girls drawing $10 a week in wages received as high as $80 in premiums for the six months. At the distribution soon to be made, Mir Wood says that there are saleswomen in the store who will draw more than $100 as their share of the profits
 The salary of the employee is raised in ratio with the excess of the sales and according to the wage percentage which governs the department in which he works. For instance, girl receiving S10 a week would ordinarily make $200 in twenty weeks If however, she was successful in exceeding the amount of

 q was very pale and delicate" she says, land had no color, and had fe- male weakness with leueorrhoea, and suffered great pain at my periods. I am now well, thanks to Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. My face is plump and my cheeks red, and my complexion pure. When I began the use of this remedy I only weighed 81 pounds, and now weigh 115 pounds and am still gaining. pr. Greene's Nervrra blood and nerve remedy is a wonderful medicine. I have not had any trouble since I began taking it."
 Miss Emma Marlatt of Oxford, N. J., says
 q have been a sufferer for ten years, and the victim of large tumor weigh ing twenty pounds, which I had re- moved and I suffered untold agony for many months after.
 q tried the skill of many physi- clans, all of whom utterly failed to give me any relief.
 T then used that wonderful medi- cine, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and after using few bottles was entirely cured.
 ITO those who have been suffering from various diseases and have failed to find any relief, am to-day a living testimony and witness to the wonder ful and marvellous curative powers of this great medicine To persons suf- fering from various diseases, l earn estly recommend the use of this remedy if they would be cured For further information I will willingly cheerfully,
