the south town, although the final count
may take this from them. The returns at
midnight, however. indicate that they have
a safe majority.
The vote from the wards shows, as far
as it had been counted, that the Republi.
cans have elected fourteen aldermen and
the Democrats nine.
The City Councily has been composed
OF forty-hve Democrats and twenty three

The Republicans look on this fight as
the first battle OF 1900 and feel that the
reelection of Mr. Harrison already seals

suffers from wrinkles is preparing to
give herself a massage. First anoint
the face with good cold cream or skin
food. Then, with the lightest touch of
the tips of the fingers, begin at the
roots of the nose and rub upward over
the forehead, five times. Make the
same number of strokes from the mid
die of the forehead toward the left, and
from the middle toward the right Care
should be taken to rub against the
horizontal wrinkles in the forehead.
Next stroke over the temples from the
right and left corners of the eyes and
near the eyes, especially against the
crow s-feet Closing the eyes, stroke
over the lids from the nose outward
as in figure a. Then take the nose. Be
gin at the tip and so over it gently
including the spreading portions, where
the nostrils come. Next take the lower
eye lids, and, starting at the nose
stroke over the cheeks toward the ear
describing a circular motion up and
down, so that the lower circles reach

The second begins at the chin and con-

as to pull the muscles and skin gently

The whole treatment will occupy from

four or three may also be employed.
Whatever number is chosen, it should
be uniform throughout.
Do not use too much of the cream.
Carefully remove every fraction of 1t

A chamois skin is excellent for thor

it does no one any good to go around

DECORATION.
A New Way to Use Bows.

1t is the day of the bow. Not only do
women wear bows on their hats, on
their frocks, on their slippers on
everything of personal adornment that
is susceptible of a bow, but they are
beginning to put them on their beds.
OF course you know that pillows are
out of date,-Oh, way out. If you are
so hopelessly behind the times and SO
welded to your comfort that you can't
give them up one course and
one only is left to you-you can stick
the Objectionable things in your closet
though and bring them out at night
when you are getting ready to go to
bed. But on no account must the two
big square cushions with "shams"
(horrid wordD be seen on your couch.
If they should be, you would be dis
graced forever. -'
Instead, the bolster, fat and beauti-
fully round and sausage-like, adorns
the base of the headboard, and exact
ly in the centre, poised in graceful I'M
dulations, is an enormous bow of wide
white satin ribbon. There are four
or five wired, outstanding loops, and
two long wired ends, which wrinkle
away as though they had been shaken
by the wind and then CONCEALED. 1t
is, in fact, exactly like a dinner ta-
Bile bow, and costs four or five dollars
A similar bow is percned above the mir
ror and is the source whence flow the
muslin draperies of the dressing table.
Another one, with shorter ends and a
