How the Japanese Lady Paints Her Pace

In Japan Il quite recognized thing that
a woman should make up her face with
powder and paints. and without doing so
pear in public than we should If we failed
to perform our morning ablutions. The
process of making up is somewhat compli-
a thick layer of white chalk with a soft
brush on her face. neck, shoulders, arms
and hands. Then. having dipped her fore
finger into red paint. she carefully colors
her cheeks, temples and then over her
eyes. Her middle finger. IS used for the
black pigment, with which SHE touches up
shaved off and blackens under the eyes
to improve their expression. With her lit
tie finger she gives the finishing touches to
brilliant carmine and a little bit of gold to
set off the charms of the lower lip.-From

AT THE THEATERS

ORPHEUM-Ranson and vivacious
galaxy of vaudeville artists delighted
a large audience at this house last night.
Ransone cut loose a lot of new stories
and songs, and they We're received with
the same enthusiasm that characterized
his first weeks engagement. The new
features of this week include Monsieur
Chevriel, the trick violinist, who, in ad-
dition to being Virtuoso, possesses a
bizarre and versatile fancy, and made
sweet music with all sorts of accessories.
Field and Lewis made their first ap-
pearance and hit as parodists and
comedians, and Carr and Jordan and
Martin and Mack, Watson and Dupre
and the three Nightons in their clever
and engaging specialties made up a rare
budget of fupmaking and enjoyment. A
notable and delightful feature was the
rendition by Romandy's orchestra of
Schubert's Serenade. 1t was eXquis-
itely played and heartily received by the
music-loving portion of the audience.

Of the men who insist that women have

The County Hospital

Editor Herald: am anxious
from personal experience to contra
dict the attack upon the county
hospital, published by a correspondent
in your paper on Sunday last. I was
patient at the hospital for six weeks
and could not have received better treat
ment in any place. Drs. Barber, Muir
ply and Hawkins made their rounds
regularly twice day and were very at
tentive to all patients. The nurses in
variably showed kindness, diligence and
faithfulness. Everything is kept clean
and neat as anyone may see by visiting
the hospital. Every indulgence is shown
to patients who conduct themselves
properly. The dining room under the
supervision of Mr.. Thomas Shannon is
also neat and clean, and every patient is
treated according to doctors orders. This
is the result of my personal experience
as patient. WILLIAM STANFIELD.

THE POLITE WORLD

delightful affair that combined both
social and musical afternoon occurred
ct the Ebell Club rooms on South Main
street yesterday. when the Monday Mus
ical club was the guest of the Ebell So
clety. The rooms were made very at
tractive with a profusion of ST. Joseph's
lilies. The program was eXcellently
rendered and gave ample proof of the
high standard of musical talent that is
within our city. The feature of the
afternoon was two charming little
French songs given by Miss Beresford
Joy, which displayed to the best ad-
vantage the deep tones of a voice that
IS wonderfully sweet and pure, and in
the expression and clear articulation,
with which each song was rendered,
brought forth an applause that was
hearty and sincere. Ouvre les YeuX Blues
was graciously given as an encore. The
charming natural grace and ease of
Miss joys singing in conjunction with
her unQueStionable ability as vocalist
give to her listeners rare treat. Miss
Frye read an interesting paper on the
development of the novel, and at the con-
clusion of the program the guests were
turned over to the hospitable care of
the house committee, who served re-
freshing and tempting viands. Follow
ing is the program:

Boycie Brash, Dick Boudar, Geo. Kilmer
Walter Butler, e. Kres, Ed. Sporleder ant
e. Warner, formed a jolly party that wen
out to the Pagosa lakes, Saturday evening
returning last evening. They camped out
and had lots Of fun, but evidently they
failed to agree on the number OF ducks
killed, as different members of the party
rave entirely different numbers, ranging
from four up to thirty eight.
A couple Of mighty nimrods went out to
the Pagosa lakes, yesterday, loaded down
with cartridges, ETC., but on their arrival
there, just happened to remember that
they left their shot-guns standing against
a certain lunch counter In town. Needless
to add, they got no ducks.
A party that went ont for strictly
business was composed of d. G. Winters,
Jim Saxon, G. s. Rogers, J.. Minium, T. B,
Mills and Ludwig Ilfeld. They took a
boat out with them and those big Pagosa
lakes had no terrors for them. They got
about forty ducks. s,s1

The ..citizens" Party.

As THE OPTIC has before stated that
peoples" "independeht" and "citizens'
tickets are very seldom the handiwork OF
the people, the citizens or those independ-
emit in politics, but are generally made up to
further the plans of some scheming pol
~itician, and by the way, is there any sig-
nifcance in the fact that both meetings OF
the citizens party" were held in the
Office Of q certain attorney, who Is in the
employ Of a certain other attorney, who is
employed in looking after the welfare OF
his country?
However, the "citizen party" met Satur-
day evening, an even dozen being present,
and agreed to oppose something this com
ing city election. 1t was sometime before
any one present could think OF anything
to oppose, but they had to have something,
for you know II strains a man terribly to
kick at nothing, SO they agreed to oppose
the improvement that was going on about
the city. This was a happy thought, i'm
provement must be fought. What will this
country come to if improvement continues9
No, sir. Down with all improvement!
