Enee EaA


Clear complications wait upon the con-
sumption OF oranges. They do much to
keep the digestion in order and nothing
makes the skin so clear and fresh as good
digestion.
The face should be washed in very hot
water only on rare occasions, for hot
water lOosens the muscles and tends to
make the skin flabby. When it is washed
in hot water it should be dashed in cold
water in which a few drops of toilet
vinegar or water have been sprinkled.
Every night, before going to bed. rub
a little pure cold cream into the face and
rub it off again with a soft cloth. Gently
massage the forehead. the skin about the
eyes and about the lips for ten minutes.
Then wash the face in water and go to
sleep with pleasant thoughts.

from two to three inches apart ali along
the muslin; shake the cuffs and collars
and fasten them by the buttonholes to
this line OF buttons, and the strip can
simply be pinned on the line, with no
danger OF these small articles being soiled
by dropping to tie ground.

Old Lace Is Unhealthy.

All the old gowns and laces and other
treasures must surely have been used up
at the time of the aesthetic revival, but
at all events there seems to be little cause
just now for the medical contemporary to
sound note Of alarm respecting heirlooms.
In these much valued properties the deadly

Tan and White Fronts.

Handsome vests for the most dressy
toilets are made of white satin ribbon and
tucked batiste or yellow lace. The front
proper will be made Of the lace or batiste
and down the center Of this will run
the ribbon in two full ruffles that narrow
down to nothing at the waist. At the
bust they stand out with q pouter effect,
which, with slender figure. is extremely
becoming. A splendid gown recently seen,
Of en,inence purple cloth, had vest of this
sort, the seams of the skirt matching with
narrow pipings of white satin.

Verdict of Second Degree Murder in
Case of Paterson Woman.
Paterson, n. j., Feb. 29.-Mary Van
Wycke was convicted yesterday in the court
of oyer and terminer of murder in the second
degree.
In August last she threw her five-months-
old baby Herbert into the Passaic river
because she could not support it and could
find no one to take care OF IL. Her
husband died five years ago, leaving her
without means of support. The boy
Herbert was an illeSitimate child
Mrs. Van Wycle heard the verdict with
out tremor. Her sex saved her from
conviction OF murder in the first degree
as the evidence clearly indicated that the
murder was deliberate and premeditated.

A CRIMINAL BLuNDER.

When DR.. jameson and his 600 or
700 rough-riders rode to defeat and sur
render in their piratical raid against
the Transvaal republic, the immediate
result not only proved disastrous, but
it is now regarded as a serious blunder
affecting the present Matabele trouble.
They are surely missed now in the part
of British South Africa, from which
they were taken. If that band Of adj
venturers were where they belonged, in
the territories of the Chartered South
Africa company, the Matabele rising
could soon be put down, and many
white settlers might be saved who will
probably be killed before troops can
be brought from the nearest points
where they can be obtained.
In fact, if the Jameson raid had never
taken place the chances are that there
would have been no outbreak in M3t2-
beleland The natives knew very soon
that the men who conquered them had
themselves been overthrown and had
disappeared from the country where
they were wont to be seen. The Malta
beles found the forces of their rulers
weakened just when all South Africa
learned that the Chartered company's
men were not invincible. That made
a double temptation to revolt, and the
consequence is seen in the killing of
more than 100 white settlers in Mata-
beleland and the loss of great deal
of property.
OF course, in the end the savageS
themselves will be the greatest suffer
ers, and the development OF a very rich
and promising part of South Africa will
be retarded, all by the reckless and I'M
principled raid of Jameson's freeboot-
ers upon a country with which Eng
land was at peace.

A FACT WORTH KNOWING.

Why does one feel chilly when lying
down while having on precisely the
same clothing as when he was COM
fOrtably standing or sitting? Harper's
Bazaar gives the answer: Nature takes
the time when one is lying down to give
the heart rest, and that organ conse-
Ouently makes ten strokes less minute
than when one is in an upright posture.
Multiply that by sixty minutes, and IL
is six hundred strokes. Therefore in
eight hours spent in lying down the
heart is saved nearly five thousand
strokes. and as the heart pumps six
ounces Of blood with each stroke ii
lifts thirty thousand ounces less OF
blood in night of eight hours spent in
bed than when one is in an upright pO-
sition. As the blood flows SO much
more slowly through the veins when
one is lying down, one must supply
then with extra coverings the warmth
usually furnished by circulation.

ed the contents OF the basket into the
stove and started the fire. He forgot
the bills. They went up in nice blue
smoke.
In the case OF James n. Wood against
r T. Beach. just decided by the secre-
tary of the interior. a much mooted ques-
ton is finally adjudicated- The commits
sioner OF the general landoffice has held
repeatedly that where the question of
priority of settlement cannot be deter
mined, the land shall be divided, and SO
held in this cause. which involves a fine
tract of land on the line south of Perry.
says the Enterprise-Times- This hold
ing IS reversed by the secretary. who
finds that where simultaneous settlement
is made, the burden is on the contestant
and the entry must remain intact; that II
is not sufficient TO simply put in doubt
the allegations of the contest affidavit.
This case will be precedent IN several
hundred others. in which the land has
been divided by the commissioner. Ran
som & Bailey were attorneys for Mr..
Beach, who gets final decision in his favor.

comes a second Canada. if not an indie
pendent nation. National independ-
ence would probably be followed by
union of all the British colonies with
the two republics, which are under
control OF the Beers. That, however.
is matter Of the distant future, II ever
it is TO be accomplished. In the mean
time the relation of the Beers and the
English residents 70 each other must
be considered. and wisdom demands
that the two races be brought as close
10 each other as possible
There was few years ago a notable
tendency toward more harmonious re-
lations- But the recent raid OF Jane
son and the animosities and jealousies
engendered by that blunder have turn
ed back the course of events and de-
layed for years the accomplishment Of
a purpose which every man truly loyal
to the interests of the country desires.
The attempt 10 overturn the liberties
of the Beers failed, and it would fail
if it were again attempted, but ii has
left behind a bitterness of feeling and
a distrust which are Of incalculable in
jury.
What the relation OF the Beers and
the English in South Africa shall be. is
the great question which bears more
directly than any other upon the well
fare of that country. There is no dan
ger that the independence of the Trans
yaal and the Orange Free State will be
overthrow, but the growth and devel-
opment Of South Africa as whole has
been most unfortunately and fOOliShly
retarded. 1t is another Illustration of
British stupidity, that the South Africa
company did not keep its hands of the
