The matter was not submitted to arbitration. The island of Trinidad came into prom thence upon the proposal to make it Q cable station between Europe and Bra gil, but owing to its volcanic condition it has been found unsuitable for the purpose, and it has consequently again become of very small importance so far as Great Britain is concerned.

THE NIGHT TOILET.
A Good Grooming Before Retiring is
 Very Beneficial

A Good Grooming Before Retiring fe
 Very Beneficial.
 Few women seem to appreciate the necessity us we'll as the value of a night toilet. They reserve all their groom ing methods for daylight trial and are content to slip into bed with only nasty attack on their teeth with the toothbrush and few rapid strokes of the hairbrush upon their locks.
 Now the ultra-fastidious sister would as soon think of sighting her toilet details before she goes to dreamland as she would venture into the break fast-room with uncombed locks.
 She realizes that night is the time to repair whatever ravages the day has made in her looks.
 In the first place, just before going to bed is the best time to take warm bath, for the bather then has the en- tire. night to rest if there is any fatigue attendant upon the hot rubbing.
 Night is the proper time to take facial steam bath. This pore e-cleansipg plan is apt to make the skin look blotchy and red for time. and it is an advantage to be able to apply a creamy unguent and let the "parboiled" effect wear off before morning.
 When there is need of facial hath of soap and water (and there are times when the skin calls for this practical cleansing), it is better to take it just before retiring. The use of a little cold cream will remedy the drawn, stretched feeling the skin is likely to assume, but no woman can start out on her days duties with a cream-daubed counte- nance. Hence the value of the night toilet. Those much-talked-about fifty strokes of the hairbrush" should be doubled at night when the dust that has accumulated in madame's tresses needs to be removed. It is an untidy habit, this sighting the head as well as any other part of the body. Noth- ing betrays lack of attention so plainly as ones hair.
 No one can expect to secure lus- trous, satiny head of hair if too lazy to bring the brush into vigorous play. Dentists bills would be less heavy if women would appreciate the value of thorough mouth grooming before re- tiring. The tooth brush should be deftly carried into every crevice of the teeth and the mouth well rinsed out with a little water and myrrh or lsterine. One young girl whose hands are the admiration of all her friends confides that she does her most careful mani- curing before she goes to bed, incas- ing her hands, after the digits have been artfully tended, in cerate gloves. In the morning she has only to wash her hands in lather of castillo soap and warm water or use a little almond meal and they are perfection from wrist to finger tip.
 Going to bed with half-soiled lands is sure to rub the dirt in. so to speak, and the skin soon loses its fineness of texture.-Philadelphia Inquirer.
