ful in design and coloring. It Is fre- quently made to simulate real lace, and although so fragile looking, is said to wear fairly well. A new fad is the self gartering hose, made with a ribbon run through the top and tied in a dainty bow.
 Evening slippers in the latest style are made of cashmere. in light blue or red. They have the high Louis XIV instep and are finished with fancy silver buckles.
 In walking shoes the most approved mode is in calf leather with fancy bro- guing laces and medium heel
 The gloves proposed for evening wear this season are decided novelties. The color is a gris de perle. It is stitched in silk of white or of the same color and each of these stitchings on the back of the glove is surrounded or outlined In the fainter and most delicate lavender threads.
 Another pail, of gloves for evening wear has black. white or cream lace reaching almost to the shoulders.
 Any one of these oddities make pretty and acceptable gifts for the holidays. The fluffy 5abots and stocks are espe- cially suitable for this purpose.

MRS. H. S. You must remedy the
 disordered liver before you can hope to get rid of the liver spots. Outward appli- cations will be of no earthly use as long
 as the condition which causes them exists. When one is afflicted with shiny nose, the first thing to do is to look to the diet, for the refulgent nose is pretty sure sign that one has been indulging in gravies fats, pastries and other things disastrous to the digestion. Eat lots of fruit and avoid sweets of every descrip- ton. and then use the following lotion: Alcohol. four ounces, ammonia. one ounce; oil of lavender, one dram. Mix by shaking in a six ounce bottle. Add one scant teaspoOnful of this to two quarts of warm water when the face is bathed. Do quantity just given. After washing the face in the water containing the lotion, apply a little rose water and then pow der well.
 c. " K.-Oh, I wish I could impress upon you girls the utter folly of using lace bleaChes, or, in fact, of putting upon your faces anything that Is strong enough 10 remove the cuticle. Nearly all such preparations contain corrosive sublirnate. which is deadly poison and often. as in your own case, the result is most disas- trous. I think 1t very likely that soap does not agree with your skin. At any rate, discontinue it's use for a time. Use almond meal instead, and stop using the skin food Never use anything of that sort that you buy in the shops and do not know the ingredients of. The following skin food cannot be improved upon: Sper- maceu, F ounce; white wax 15 ounce sweet almond oil, ounce; lanoline. i ounce; cocoanut oil, 1 ounce; tincture of benzoin, 10 drops; orange fiowef water. 1 ounce. Go only to a first-class druggist to have this prepared. so as to make sure of getting the very best quality of ingre- dients. After washing the face each night with tepid water and almond meal, mas sage thoroughly with the skin food Don't neglect the daily tepid sponge bath, with a hot bath once or twice a week. and plenty of exercise, and feel certain that your skin will improve. Let me know.
 MRS. S.--As your hair is so very oily should recommend a tonic made of if teen grains of quinine dissolved in one half pint of alcohol.

dread of the Dental Chair. This

1t has been given the SEVEREST
TESTS by some of the most successful
and distinguished dental surgeons in
America. 1t has never failed to AN

Cataphoresis has been a complete sue

The Killing of Lieutenant Wansboro

ably drew. Suddenly he sprang to his
feet gazing intently into the village,
but what he saw we never knew, ~ he
was instantly shot Though the heart

I Our Relations With AguinaIdo.

Our relations from day to day are
becoming more strained with the in
and Agunialdo. We forget
that they drove the Spaniards from
Cavite to their present intrenched po-
sition, thus saving us long-continued
the masters, and are making our pow
er felt, while we rather look down on
the Philippine Indian who used to be
our allies. Only day before yesterday
we unceremoniuosly seized Agui-
naldos telegraph line; but on his Wig
orous protest, and implied threat that
continued action of this kind would
be likely to turn the native population
against us, gave up his telegraph line,
and did what we ought to have done
at the first--built one of our own.
However much the bad feelings be-
tween American and insurgent may
grow, one thing is certain, that to
turn these islands over to Spain again
would be criminal. We entered into
war to deliver Cuba from oppressive
Spanish rule. BY our actions here we
encouraged the Filipinos with hopes Of
a free country, and made it possible
for them to rise and force the Span
iards into Manila leaving the rest of
Luzon Island completely under their
control. Having accepted Philippine
aid against the Spaniards in the hour
of our need, then to turn them over to
Spain again, that she mig this time
with undivided resources throw her
Cuban army into these Islands, would
be a dastardly act English mer-
chants assure me that the result
would be a wholesale massacre of the
natives. ANY action on our part now
seems preferable. Give them their
liberty and guarantee it to them.
GIVE them to Japan, England, even to
Germany, or, as a last resort, keep
them ourselves, rather than allow
Spanish dominion to re-establish it
self.-Harper' Weekly.

We print elsewhere the resolutions
concerning the new Court House, which
the County Con- missioners adopted un-
animously on Wednesday of this week.
The resolutions are very interesting
reading, and are of the highest import
ance to the people of this county. We
trust that the taxpayers of the county
will take kindly to the idea of new
building when the question comes to
the polls which it will do in November.
The need of a new Court House and
Jail is so apparent, that the case
scarcely needs arguing. The first de-
sideratum in Court House is an abso-
lutely safe place for public records-a
building that is ire-proof, SO that there
may be prevented the awful entangle-
ments in real estate titles which the
loss or destruction Of the records would
provoke. This point is most important
and cannot be uttered too emphatically.
A new and fire-proof Court House
would be to each landowner cheap
insurance for keeping intact his titles
to his belongings.
Not only the matter of safety enters
the case, but almost equally important
is the problem of more room in which
to do business. The Commissioners
need larger quarters, where they can
transact their affairs unhampered by
the crowds that sometimes swarm into
the Auditors office. The department
of Probate needs large room in which
to hold court. The present quarters
are wholly deficient for such purposes.
Then there enters the matter of
health. The old place is damp and no
amount of broom and mop can ever
make it shine, or even sweeten the
premises.
No words need be said for the jail
every body knows that it was out of
date quarter of a century ago. The
Jail building should adjoin, or be a
part OF the Court House, for obvious
reasons.
AS to the expense there is no coun-
ty in the land that could better afford
to build than we. Out of debt, and a
large population, at least $4,000 people,
no one person paying taxes would feel
the added tax. The rich could afford
it, and the poor man wouldn't know
he was paying anything for the i'm
provement. s125,000 is proposed to be
spent, and that amount would put at
the peoples disposal public structure
wherein it would be pleasure to do
business.
Many smaller counties in the State
have fine modern buildings that put to
blush that of Washington county; and
we hope the day may be not far dis
tant when Washington county will see
and rise from her seeming careless
ness of public safety and comfort.

election approaches. Mr.. vanVoor-
his absolutely clean record leaves the
opposition in hard luck for material.
Mr.. VanVoorhis' record is before the
people and is all right. He has made
good safe Congressman. The fact
that the Republican party of this dis
trict has nominated him three times
for Congress, is an endorsement that
will carry convincing force with it on
