what they wanted to do? 'sThe day n
too hot or too cold" Nothing ever Just
right. Fretting themselves and all
they come in contact with. Win they
ever be beautiful? Beauty Is life and
life is activity. If you would be beauti-
full Of face and figure you must exer-
else both body and mind. You have no
time to fidget. All the Tu lish baths
and masseuse In the world will not be
able to aid you unless you forego the
pleasure of fretting. So for the face In
general stop 1t and cultivate content.
For the face in detail. first the fore
head! II you want II smooth avoid ele-
waiting the eyebrows when talking. Stop
making faces and so creating unneces-
sary lines. Keep the eyebrows brushed
and oil them occasionally to increase
their growth. For the eyes. do not
strain or tire them. Rest the sight
often by closing them q few minutes
and feel the relief. Only half hour
fiat on your back with every muscle re-
laxed and the eyes closed will do much
to remove the dark circles from about
your eyes. Sleep whenever you can.
The mouth should not be too large
nor too small and the lips neither thick
nor yet too thin. In the one case you
can draw the lips in to reduce them and
In the other practice pouting or some
other gentle exercises to increase them.
Facial massage Is not only a luxury
but in many cases a necessity. 1t not
only exercises unused muscles, opens
pores and feeds the skin. but 1t soothes
the nerves and refreshes the patient.
Just so massage of the scalp not only
makes the hair grow more luxuriously
but 1t rests the subject. Try 1t.
This brings US to the care Of the head.
In the first place, the hair should be
cared for once a week regularly with
dry shampoo, as some term 1t, but In
reality massage treatment to increase
the circulation and stimulate the hairs
growth and good brushing to remove
dust. Wash 1t at least once q month,
In some cases oftener. Trim and SINCE
the split ends. When the hair Is falling
consult q specialist. You can rarely
give it the proper care yourself. DO
not use hair-dyes for they are injurious
to the brain. Ammonia used to keep
the hair light will burn both hair and
scalp.

Y. W. c. A. LUNCH ROOM.

A most prominent feature OF the
Young Women's Christian Association
work, Is the Lunch Room, where girls
may spend a pleasant and profitable
hour each day. 1t was established in
1890. and has steadily advanced In USE
fulness until the present time when
nearly 100 girls are taking daily ad-
vantage of the accommodations offered.
When first established, the Lunch Room
was intended as place where shop and
office girls might eat their lunch, but
the ever thoughtful management soon
ascertained that 1t would be an espe.
cial accommodation to many girls to
serve warm dinners and light lunch.
Progress has continually marked the
enterprise until the present time, when
a most substantial meal may be had,
and at reasonable price. Although
successful, beyond the fondest hopes Of
its projectors 1t Is just possible that
many girls Of the city are not aware
OF the existence Of SO pleasant a place
so advantageously located as the Young
Woman's Christian Association Lunch
Room, and 1t is for the benefit Of these
that this article Is intended.
The Lunch Room Is intended for all
classes and creeds and after lunch,
girls may take advantage of the read
Ing room and also enjoy themselves in
social intercourse. While it is not de-
MED that religious air pervades the
atmosphere In the vicinity of the Young
Woman's Christian Association Lunch
Room, whatever ones belief ia she will
find nothing to offend her. The man.
agement hopes that by the close Of the
present year every girl working any,
where near the Lunch Room will be a
regular caller and enjoy that which Is
intended for all.

Among the prisoners was a young

was cut short and her dress was of cal

Rlanco the richest man in the world.
When the Venezuelan dictator protest

richest man in the world, for who else
has estates comprising 100000 square
miles Of territory? Who else has an
income of $37,ooO,ooo? Who else has
100000 slaves?" Guzman was not

LISTEN, SILVER MEN,

The New York Chamber of Com
merce is alarmed. 1t knows that the
cause of silver is to the front, and it
fears that it may win. Consequently
it has sounded a general tocsin to the
business men and capitalists through
out the Nation, asking them to stand
firmly together, shoulder to shoulder
to unite in a vigorous effort to urge
the selection Of Delegates to the politi-
cal conventions of both great parties
who will advocate clear and dis
tinct platform of utterances in favor
Of the maintenance of the present

and action ought to be ali the more

the gold bugs will present solid

understood that the silver men will

ing squad, each man with his own
choice for Presidential candidate?
l. IL not time Tor the Republicans,
not only of California, but of the en-
tire Pacific Coast, to determine that
they will be for once united, that
their delegates shall be pledged be
forehand that they will not vote for
amy man as the Republican nominee
for President, who will not pledge
himself squarely and unequivocally
upon the side of silver?
Let the coming Republican conven-
lions of California, Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming
and Montana place in their platforms
unmistakable silver planls. and let
their delegates be unequivocally
pledged TO vote for that man as Re.
publican candidate for President who
will promise to stand squarely upon
such a plank.
The Pacific Coast delegates may
hold the balance of power. They
may be able to dictate terms to the
entire convention. They may be able
to name the next President of the
United States.
Will they put their united should,
ers to the wheel, or will they differ,
divide and become nonentities in the
great body?
Let none of these great Pacific
Coast States pledge it's delegates for
Mckinley, for Allison, for Reed, or
for any other man, but let them unit.
eddy instruct their delegates to vote
for the man who will promise to stand
solidly upon the silver plank present
