The ARGUS desires to return cincere thanks to its clever friend Mr. Steve w. Boardman of Clar- endon for many kindnesses and courtesies shown us during the past two weeks in getting details of the Orr assassination, lyncAing etc. It will be remembered that it was to Mir. Boardman that Mrs. Orr made her last statement, will and wish before she lapsed into inconsistencies after taking poison from which she died. (This last will and wish of the Orr woman was for the first tune published in the ARGUs.) It was thro' the enterprise and courtesy of Mir. Boardman that the photos of the lynching were secured. The services rendered the old ARGUS by Mir. Boardman ln this case will long be remembered and he is to be assured that the favors will be returned if the opportunity is presented.

To Clear the Complexion.

The scrmbbing-brush treatment is a cure for those blackhcads which arc the banc of a woman's lifc. Be sure you get a good face brush. Purchase a cake of pure hygicnic soap. The brush should be used at night before going to bed. lmmerse tho brush in hot wa ter. Rub the soap over it until a good father is obtained. Scrub the face carefully violently, but thor oughly. Ono minute should suffice for the scrnbbing process. Rinse with warm water and again with cooler wn- ter. Dry with . soft towel. If the skin is irritated by the unusual friction try . good cream or other emollient. The greasy look will disappear under the face-scrubbinq brush also.-Chicago Tribune. 4

MANAGING SERVANTS.
Teach Them Self-Respect and Always
 Keen YOur Own.

TR0Gh Vhem Selx-kt eB VeCt UAm nA wy -
 Keep Your own.
 The best rule for managing servants, in the opinion of writer in the Phlia- delphia Ledger, is a two-fold one, sim ple in idea, complex enough, but still possible to practice: Teach your serv' ant self-respect and keep your own.
 For instance. a pleasant room to sleep in, nice kitchen, with plenty of serv- iceable cooking utensils, good brooms' ample towels and dusters, fixed duties and regular hours; these give and keep up seh-respect in Q willing handmaid, be she cook or waitress. She learns to call your house her home, truly, and to take pride in her work.
 On your side an even temper, Q pleas- ant but firm oversight of necessary matters. a systematic plan of house. keeping-all these keep up the mistress self-rspect in dealing with her house hold staff. As soon as you feel that you have been careless, or that you have lost your temper in trying moment you realize that false position ex- ists that endangers your self-respect- ing relation with your maid, just as she feels, when her room is wretched, her tools out of order, her hours of work irregular and her training neglected, that her standard is confused and de graded.
 The ideal mistress Is always self respecting, and, having provided the essentials of self-respecting service may reasonably expect the ideal maid to live up to the opportunity. Ideals are perhaps never fully realized, but this especial ideal must be kept in view if improvement, however gradual, in household service is desired. It is easy to remember; try it, and see if it does not oil the wheels of your home ma chinery.

 "No man can serve two mas ters." Neither is it good to have too many irons in the fire. Some thing new is not always best. Learn to let very we'll alone and you will never get into a hobble.
 The old adage "A. wise man will change his opinion, but a fool nevel," cannot be applied to the periodical change that takes place with some folks. For in- stance, the man with whom you come in contact with to-day may talk pleasantly and courteously and manifest considerable social interest, who, on meeting to-mor- row, may present an appearance that highly indicates an insulted mind, or he will talkyss if he had only a limited number of words to speak before dying and that the utterance of each word brought him nearer to the grave. Such men will never revolutionize a republic nor reform a community. They do not realize that, by their monstrous state of selfishness and indifference, they become debtors to their friends and associates. Our business Hays rolling" when we meet one of these social para sites, for if there is anything that makes us pessimisticaily inclined, it is to meet one of these pitiful creatures. "Sameness," if it be in respect to courtesy, is mark of high order of man or woman :. hood, and should not be set aside at the expense of making sad our lives and the lives of others.

LORRAINE RIBBON WORK.

Fancy fer This Sort of ThiA1 ls eA the IncreaAe.
 Though the ribbon work known as "Lorraine work" has been in fashion l for some time the craze for it seems to be on the increase. It is now used for gowns as we'll as for small fancy arti- cles, as sachets, note books, cushions or screens. One of Chicago's leading dressmakers has prepared white satin skirt embroidered up each seam with suitable design, which is to be worn at ball near at hand. The effect of the
 embroidery is much improved by the addition of spangles and scquins. The bodice is embroidered to correspond. Such work must be done most care fully, or the beauty of the whole dress would be spoiled. The method of work ing is really very simple. as each petal
 and leaf is formed by the ribbon. which
 is threaded into the needle md passed
 through the material and only occa-
 sionally q stitch or two needs to be added in mo sewing silk. Small French knots are introduced as centsrs to small flowers, and raised flowers arc
 worked by just gathering small por- ton of the ribbon into shape before placing it where required.
 Dinner table centers and doylies worked to match are the smartest and newest idea. and just at this season
 decorative needlework comes in most
 opportunely. En passant, it may be
 suggested that on . large table broad ribbons can be most effectively intro-
 luced. and these must be arranged ac-
 .ording to individual taste. and also
 with regard to the silver or other orna- ments in hand for decoration. Much
 depends upon the arrangements for lighting. whether candles, lamps. or
 electric light be used. Two broad rib bons twisting in and out of the base of amps, fiowcrpots or dessert dishes are
 most effective in two colors. Starting
 from the center and ending in bows at each corner. this is much admired.
 snd if candles are used or shaded lamps their shades should match tho ribbon. Chicago Timss-Herald.
