THE POLITE WORLD
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Fads follow 30 closely upon each other
that we have scarcely an opportunity to
accustom ourselves to the last, when it is
presto, change, and we have something
new to occupy our thoughts and time.
And now it is the identifying process by
the newest method of complexion renova-
ton. and although it has traces of bar
barrie torture, many have taken it up and
consider that the end justifies the means.
Since the time OF Mother Eve women
have endeavored to improve their per-
sonal appearance-exercise of all kinds,
massage and all methods known to the
fair sex have been Yesorted to, but this
last supersedes them all. Even Cleo
patra. with her matchless beauty, is said
TO have written book on this subject
and handed down many OF her own re-
nipes. The girl who has thoroughly en-
joyed her summer outing, with scant re-
gard to veil, sunshsde and wide brimmed
hat need not be sorry. for she can have
tho pleasure of adopting the new fad and
at the same time have all traces removed
OF the havoc Old Sol has played during
the summer months. The fad was started,
says the New York Advertiser, by aswell-
known Russian society woman. who
spe.t the winter with friends in America
and who was the first subject of the skin
emover. To her there came one day a
suave and courteous foreigner, who spoke
excellent Russian and fluent French, and

Guibal and Ortiz remain, and who could
not enjoy and admire the performance

give remarkable exhibition OF psyco-
hypnotism. There is absolutely no trick
cry about their work. 1t Is the genuine,
simon pure power everyone has heard
about and which so many doubt the ex-
istence of. TO see the marvellous seance
g iven by them is to be convinced that
there is a strange, subtle power that gives
man absolute control over human kind,
q power by which he can compel them
to obey him in every wish and the wishes
of others expressed to him. AS an intro
ductory to the principal part If his per-

Such incidents as the above are ALMOST
every day happening at this popular
house, and the funny things that happen
at the box Office are as amusing In truth
as the stage performance.
The effect of popular prices has. in
this city as elsewhere, been to draw aud
fences three times the size that they
woulu be wers the old-time high scale in
force. Cheap prices do not make cheap
show, and the Orpheum bears out the
truth of this statement. Better vaudeville
than is given there cannot be obtained
and it is a fact that oftentimes there is
single act of the bill that is in itself
worth double the highest prices charged.
AS compared with the eastern music halls
and vaudeville thsaters, the Orpheum's
artists are just as good. In fact, the

The Mail Service Change Because
of No Car for 1t.

Postmaster Castle said yesterday
that the proposed changes in the mail
service from Chicago were hung I'D
temporarily by the refusal of the Mil
waukee road to furnish a mail car
from La Crosse to st. Paul for the
morning train. There was some cues
ton as to whether the government
could compel the company to furnish
a car under the contract as it exists
without paying extra for it. 1t would
not require a whole car as no regu-
lar railway mall clerk would be on it.
but just one of the local force to work
the mail in transit after leaving La
Crosse. Therefore a combined mail
and baggage car would answer. The
postmaster said that it had been sug-
gested by Supt. Barclay, of the rail-
way mail service, that the difficulty
might be gotten around by having the
local man work the mail between Chi
cago and La Crosse, and have it all in
pouches ready to send on from there in
the baggage car as now The matter
was being considered and something
would probably be done very soon.
