The Origin and Progress Of the Wrinkles
on the Face.

The Origin and Progress Of the Wrinkles
on the Face.
We all become interested sooner or
later in the subject o. wrinkles. They
are the "irreparable outrage" OF Ra-
cine, but although they are so univer-
sal few have endeavored to explain their
origin and progress. Wrinkles are pro-
duced in the first instance by the fire.
quent repetition of some muscular con.
traction or by sickness. They are not
merely superficial, but appear when the
epidermis is removed, and are found
not only in the face, but all over the
body. They do not run in any regular
direction, and no law has been found
including all their directions. 1t has
been said that the life history OF man
can be written from his wrinkles, but
physiology hardly agrees in this In
stance, for it has still to be proved that
a generals wrinkles differ from those
of physicians or laborer's from
lawyers. A man does not always or
even generally carry about faithful
autobiography in his face. Although no
part of the body is free from them they
| visit chiefly the face, particularly round
the eyes and lips. They run in all di-
rections - horizontal, vertical and
obliuue, straight, curved and crossed.
Going in the sun with the face INSULT
GENTLY covered brings them on proma-
turely, but they are in every case nor

Vertical wrinkles between the eyes
come quickly to men who study or wor-
nv themselves. This can readily be i'm

ton calling for an investigation as to
what effect the tariff had upon trusts.
His first speech was upon this resolu-
ton. 1t was not funny speech. 1t was
as serious as he could make it, crammed
with facts and figures, for Billy was
new to congress and took himself quite
seriously.
When he had finished, Sunset Cox

speeches, in the course of which he fire.

the well known lines describing satan:

Coxs speech set the house in an up

Republican leader on the floor, and he
went over to the detected Mason in a

The laugh had been turned on Cox.
Then Mason opened his batteries, double
shotted with facts and figures, and made
a most effective speech. But the house
never forgot his witty rejoinder and al
ways expected him to say something
funny whenever he opened his mouth.
Mr.. Mason was born in Franklinville,
Cattaraugus county, N. Y, July q,
1850. His father was a wagon maker,
and when Billy was 8 years old the
family moved to Bentonsport, Ia. After
being graduated at Birmingham college,
Ia, he taught school for few winters,
studying law at the same time. He was
admitted to the bar at the age of 81 and
soon after removed to Chicago He be-
came lawyer of recognized ability and
was finally appointed attorney for the
Illinois Central railroad. He has been
active in politics ever since he was old

in the Illinois general assembly and in
the state senate and was finally promoted
to congress. He has a family of seven
children and lives in fine house in

their purpose the care of the sick and
wounded in disaster and war. Florence
Nightingale had already nursed the suf
fering English soldiers who were dying
in the trenches before Sevastopol and
our own Clara Barton had already ap-
peared on more recent battlefelds. But
an international agreement was needed.
Sixteen governments, including the
United States, were represented in the
original convention. An informal con-
ference had been held in Geneva year
earlier, when the horrors of our civil
war were at their worst. Previous at
tempts had also been made to interest
the nations in such an organization
Switzerland was the first to give its
official sanction, and then the approval
of France was secured. Other European
nations followed suit, and when the
convention was held the international
agreement was prepared. This imposes
upon the victorious army the duty of
caring for the enemy's wounded and
guarantees protection to all surgeons
and nurses and their hospital stores and
materials. 1t makes military and field
hospitals in which the wounded are
cared for neutral places and guarantees
all attendants freedom from molesta-
ton. By its terms the permanently dis
abled are to be released and allowed to
return to their homes.
More than so nations have signed this
agreement, and in every civilized coun-
try there are Red Cross societies which
are well organized and ready to act in
any emergency.

complished by the consolidation of the
old public library, which, in its location
in the city hall, was of little use to the
public, and the Fisk library, which had
been struggling along without sufficient
means to sustain it and keep it up with
the times.
Some months ago the city government
of New Orleans found that it had on its
hands st. Patrick's hall, a spacious and
well built structure for which the CITY
neither had use nor could find a proper
tenant. The building had formerly been
occupied by the criminal court, but this
had been removed to new building. So
it remained vacant for several months,
when the proposition was made to COM
bine the two libraries and locate them
in st. Patrick hall, at the same time
making the consolidated library free to
the public.
This proposal was heartily Endorsed
by all members of the city government,
and the thing was done. A board of di-
rectors, consisting of seven gentlemen
who are to hold Office for life, was ap-
pointed. The combined libraries give
the new one "a, 900 volumes to start
with and an income which will enable
the librarian not only to make many adj
ditions, but to keep on file all the mag
azines and papers usually found in well
appointed reading rooms The Fisk Ii
brary was not a circulating library and
was merely maintained for reference. It
was founded by the gift to the city of
property yielding an income of so, 900 a
year from Abijah Fisk, a wealthy mer-
chant.
The new public library is to be open
every day in the year, Sundays and hol-
idays included On Sundays it will only
be open in the afternoon, but on other
days its doors will be open from 9 a. m.
to 9 p. m. Books may be taken out by
card holders. The new library has been
opened with appropriate ceremonies,
and the cataloguing is expected to be
completed by March l 8, when every book
in it will be accessible to the public

The word theosophy was first used in

the enlightenment of the world. Followers
of Paracelsus, in the sixteenth century,

Senator PETER.
OF the new western senators recently
elected two are particularly interesting,
William E. Mason, who represents the
big state of Illinois, and William A
Harris, who has been chosen by the
Kansas Populists to succeed Senator
PETER. 1t is not often that congress
sional humorist is promoted to the sem
ate, but Mr.. Mason has a wide reputa-
ton as story teller and Joker. He is
also known as a most successful lawyer,
an orator who can use convincing logic
as well as wit and a practical politician
of great ability.
The public has been laughing for so
long a time at Billy Mason s stories that
probably it has forgotten how he made
his reputation as wit. It was in 1886,
when he first went to congress as rep
resentative of the Third Chicago dis
trict. The most memorable act of that
