To Prevent Wrinkles.

Numbered with other beauty hints
dropped by contributor to the New
York Tribune is the following:
When the skin is inclined to show
wrinkles, lanolin is considered one of
tho hest possible treatments for dispel-
ling these evidences of the passage Of
time. 1t closely resembles the natural
fat, in which the wrinkling skin is def
cient, and it is more readily absorbed
by the drying pores than other greasy
preparations. Rub it in carefully, gen.
fly and slowly, first bathing the face
thoroughly in hot water and cocoanut
oil soap. Dry by pressing soft old DAM
ask towels to the skin, not rubbing it
at all. Then apply the lanolin, rub
bling it in with the fingers Let it stay
until morning, then wash the face in
warm water, using little cocoanut oil
soap to remove the greasy feeling Then
squeeze half lemon in large bowl
full of tepid water and rinse off the face,
drying with soft damask towel.

Miss Sarah Cones who lives about three
miles northwest of Aurora, Ind, is well and
popularity known. Miss Cones is a school
teacher, having charge of country school
about two miles from her home. She drives
to and from her school each day.
She is stout and robust, and in the best of
health, as the ruddy glow on her plump
cheeks testifes.
The reporter happened to meet this young
lady's mother in Aurora few days ago and
learned that although her daughter is now
in the best of health, Last winter she was
suffering untold agony, from troubles arising
from exposure.
Mrs. Cones said: "Sarah has been teach
ing for four years, beginning when in her
sixteenth year. She has always, taught at
the same school'and got along well until last
December, when the weather was unusually
changeable, and she took severe cold which
developed into the "grip." She was con-
fined to the house about two weeks, when
she got out and went to her school again.
She had relapse, and this time was con-
fined to the house several weeks, having to
give up her school.
"She was troubled with rheumatism and
nervousness, and suffered great agony, her
nerves being almost completely shattered.
She could scarcely eat, and in fact could not
retain solid food on her stomach at all.
"We tried five different physicians but
with little avail.
Zone day our druggist advised us to try
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People as
they seemed to benefit many persons about
Aurora.
Sarah used one box of the pills with
satisfactory results, and by, the time two
boxes were taken she was able to 60 about
the house. Seven boxes were used, the last
one in July. She was entirely relieved of
all pains or signs of rheumatism, and ner-
vousness and has since felt as well as she
| ever did and has not missed day Of her
school this winter"
Miss Sarah, who entered at this time veri-
| fed all her mother had said, as did also the
druggists of Aurora. The drug firms of A.
| j. Marshall & Co., j. A. Riddell & Co. and
John M. Ullrich, said the medicine was a
constant seller with them, and gave univer.
sal satisfaction. People who buy once
come and buy again." they said.
