How to Wash the Face.

With regard to the merits of hot or
cold water for the complexion, a skin
specialist, as reported in the House
hold, says that washing the face may
logically, for good results, follow in
the line adopted in the Russian and
Turkish bath.
In other words, that the way to wash
the face, so as to keep the skin soft
and yet fresh, is first to. use hot water
with fine soap, and then cold water
Immediately after, as douche. The
water and soap cleanse the pores, as
the cold water can not remove the in
sensible accumulations of grease and
persplration that catch and fix parti-
cles of dust and convert them into
"blackheads," and hasten the scaling
off of dead scarf skin.
For all these causes the hot water is
to be applied literally with fine soap;
the face sunk into the basin, and held
there. under water, as long as possi-
bic, until, in fact, it has had literally
bath and not wash.
Then, while yet the skin is soft and
moist, splash cold water plentifully
over it from basin standing ready
hard by. This serves as an immediate
and bracing tonic, counteracting the
relaxing effect of the hot water upon
the epidermis with brisk swiftness.
The face should be afterward hard
rubbed with a fine towel until a
healthy glow is created.

IT, sitting with his little, worn-out shoe
And scarlet stocking lying on my knee,
knew the little feet had pattered
through
The pearl-set gates that lie 'twixt heaven
and me,
[ could be reconciled, and happy too,
And look with glad eyes toward the jas
per sea.
II, in the morning, when the song of
birds
Reminds me of music far more sweet,
listen for his pretty, broken words
And for the music of his dimpled feet,
/ could be almost happy. though heard
No answer and saw but his vacant
seat
could be glad if, when the day is
done
And all its cares ana heart-aches laid
away,
could look westward to the hidden
sun
And with heart full Of sweet yearning
say
"To-night I'm nearer my little one
By just the travel OF a single day."

Romance of the South Pacific.

AS strange as anything written in
fiction is the story of the life and death
of the captive Queen of the Muna
Islands, in the South Pacific Ocean.
For three years Margaret Young,
daughter of an English sailor, who was
cast away on one of the islands, had
been Queen of the islands against her
will, and during all that time had not
been allowed to look upon the face OF
a man. She had been educated in
Samoa, where she had lost her heart
to chieftain. Her tragic death was
caused by suffocation when her savage
subjects tried to cure her of cold by
surrounding her with fire. Chicago

II I could know those little feet were shod
In sandals wrought of light in better
lands,
And that the footprints of tender God
Ran side by side with his in golden sands,
/ could bow cheerfully and kiss tho rod,
Since Bennie was in wiser, safer hands.
If he were dead would not sit to-day
And stain with tears the wee sock on my
knee;
would not kiss the tiny shoe and say,
"Bring back again my little boy to mel''
l would be patient, knowing twas Gods
way,
And that He'd lead me to him o er deaths
silent sea.
But, OH to know the feet once pure and
white
The haunts OF vice have boldly ventured
in,
The hands that should have battled for
the right
Have been wrung crimson in Che clasp of
sin!
And should he knock at heavens gate to-
night
fear my boy could hardly enter in.

The forests of Oregon are furnish
ing the timber which is being used in
the construction of the railroad now
being built by the Russians across the
Chinese territory of Manchuria. The
lumber is shipped across the Pacific
to Vladivostok, where it is trans
ported by rail to tributary of the
Amur River, and by water routes to
the line of the road. While there is
abundant timber in Eastern Siberia,
yet it will not be available until the
railway has been extended consider
able distance further, and even then
it is believed that the water freights
on the Pacific would be less than the
cost of land transportation. At any
rate, the development of China and
Siberia seems to afford new and i'm
portant market for the lumbermen of
the Northwest.

Marrow Toast-Procure two mar
row-bones and tie piece of cloth over
the top, which must be protected by
cap of dough, to be removed when
the bones are cooked. Boil briskly
for three ee-quarters of an hour; then
SCOOP out the marrow, mix it with q
little butter, and spread thickly upon
portions of buttered toast. Sprinkle
with a dust of cayenne pepper and
salt and serve hot.
Dewey Pudding-Beat the yolks of
four eggs well, add one pint of milk,
then one and half cups of flour
which has been sifted twice, with
teaspoonful of baking powder and
quarter teaspoonful of salt; add the
stitfiy beaten whites of the eggs and
bake i'll an earthen pudding dish half
an hour in a rather hot oven. Will be
very light and quite like a souffle if
skillfully managed.
Omelet With Peas--Beat four eggs
very slightly, allow tablespoon of
milk to each egg. Use a smooth
saucepan and cook the omelet in hot
brown. AS soon as the omelet sets,
pour over it canned peas that have
been cooked almost dry, then fold
over, and serve Immediately. Cold
meats could be warmed and substi-
tuted for the peas.
Baked Calls Head-CIean thorough
ly and cut in two. This divides the
chop from the skull. Take out the
tongue and brains. Boil both halves,
skimning well. Lift out the best
half before too well done. Spread
butter over, dredge on flour and dust
little pepper; set on trivet in baking
pan. add little of the liquor from
the kettle, and baste as any meat.
Serve with gravy. Boil the tongue in
salted water with bit of pepper. 1t
may be se,ved as beef's tongue. The
brains can be put on ice for a separ-
ate dish.

Considering that more than thirty
per cent. of French exports go to
Great Britain, it seems scarcely prob
able that the thrifty and sensible
merchants and kadesmen of France
will favor war with Great Britain if
it can possibly be avoided. And after
the politicians have had their say, it
is the quiet. practical men of business
who control the Republic.

A BRUTAL MURDER.
Body Of Brooklyn Student

New York, Nov. 2.-The body of a

body was that of Frederick Hardy, Jr.,

Young Hardy had been boarding in
Fort Hamilton, Brooklyn. He disap-
peared Oct. 2.
A post morten examination today
showed that the skull had been frac-

DEMOCRATS ACTIVE.
Many Wards Have Delega-
tons Pledged to Patrick
A. Collins.

Boston, Nov 2--An unprecedented
situation in democratic circles in Bos-
ton was found to exist this afternoon
when nominations were filed at the
rooms of the democratic city commit
tee for municipal offices. Not only arc
places on delegations to the mayoralty
convention eagerly wanted, but there
are contests in every instance for a
place on the city committee.
For mayor, every ward presents g
pledged delegation for Hon. Patrick A.
Collins; likewise seven-eighths of the
wards are represented by delegations in
favor of Hon. John r. Murphy, and in
the remaining wards where there are
no Murphy tickets, the unpledged del
egations are pronounced in opposition
to the Collins ticket. For once there is
no blank ticket in any ward.
The work of receiving the papers
made lots of excitement at headquar-
ters, but there was no trouble. The
rivalry among the delegations promises
the greatest ante-caucus canvass ever
known here, with caueuses probably
unequaled in attendance, it being es-
timated that $4,000 votes will be cast.
Some of the prominent democrats
have expressed fears that the fight for
nomination between Collins and Muir
ply will be so determined that 1t will
lead to strained relations between the
supporters of each candidate Today's
review of the republican side leads to
the prediction that Con. Thomas N.
Hart will be nominated without a con-
test by the republican mayoralty con-
Vention.
