Commission In England.

John w. Thompson, a commercial
traveller, is defendant in suit of di-
vorce brought against him by his wife,
who is a resident of Bradford, England.
She charges him with desertion. The
bill was recently filed in Chancery, and
this morning her counsel asked Vice
Chancellor Pitney for counsel fees and
alimony pending the suit.
Mr. Gilbert Collins, for the husband,
said he would not oppose counsel fee
but he would alimony, and told the Court
that Mrs Thompson practically deserted
her husband and lives in a fine house
in a fashionable part of Bradford. She
refused to see her husband when he
went over there, and as two of her sons
are working, and she takes in boarders
she has no need of alimony. One of the
sons IS in the British Army of India,

FOR THE COMPLEXION.
To Remove Tan with Lemon Juice
and White of Egg

Palid women may in time bring color
to their checks by bathing the face in
benzoin water or in the toilet prepara-
ton known as lait virginia., says the DE
lineator." To prevent that shine upon
the complexion with which many are an
noyed in warm weather, use little cam
phor in the water when bathing the
face. If the face is roughened by the
wind. sponge it often with equal parts
of rose water and brandy. Toilet wash
es containing alchohol are likely to pro-
duce harmful results The alchohol
parches. the skin, renders it brittle, and
lowers its vitality. Tan may be measur-
ably removed by the use of lemon juice
and white of egg. Place the juice of a
lemon and the unbeaten white of an egg
in thick earthen cup or bowl and set
it on the stove for half an hour taking
care not to let it get hot enough crack
the cup, and stirring often. Apply every
night to the face and hands. To bring
color to the cheeks battle the face in
tepid water in which have been mingled
a few drops of benzoin, rub briskly with
a. Turkish towel, then apply every night
the following preparation
ounce of diluted liquid ammonia
a ounces of rose water.
8 ounces of gllycerine.
Rub this well into the skin for at least
three minutes then wipe off with soft
towel. If any irritatnon is felt, add a
little more glycerine to the mixture.
