Who Teaches the Secret of WOmanIy
Beauty and Grace.


Who Teaches the Secret of WOmanIy
Beauty and Grace.
Perfection in grace and beauty is the
chief desire of womankind. Beauty of
face and form are woman's two most
attractive characteristics. To attain
these two subtle charms has been the
chief aim of many women who appre-
ciate their own imperfections and who
have CROPPED blindly to acquire that
which ignorance of the true remedies
rendered impossible to attain. DR.. H.
B. F. Criston, late of the Paris schools
of beauty and physical culture, thor
oughly understands the formula and
holds the key to the gate that leads to
beauty and grace. The knowledge he
imparts is like draught from the ia
bled fountain of perpetual youth, so ar
IDENTIFY sought by the gray-haired and
decrepit Ponce de Leon that he might
restore the vigor and grace of his
younger days. He sustains reputa-
ton along this line and on this subject,
never before attained by any man, and
the thousands of testimonials as to the
good he has done is evidence of his
worth to womankind. No lady should
miss hearing his scientific lecture.
Monday afternoon, December 18th, at

A HORRIBLE CRISIS!
Wheeling Threatened With Distinc-
ton.

ton.
To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-It is with alarm and deep men
tai anxieay that l notice the terrific
encounter between members of the
clergy and the city authorities con-
corning the municipal regulation of the
city.
Columns after columns have been ex
hausted and the terrible disaster con-
tinues; and there is a feeling prevail
ent among the non-combatants that
sooner or later one or the other side
will talk itself to death. What could
be more awful? What could be more
terrible? Think of it! Strong, Wig
orous men expiring from loss of wind
in disputation! We are told that soon
er or later the opinions of the members
of the cabinet will be asked concern
ing this matter; that the judges of the
entire country will be asked to express
opinions-and, if necessary, opinions
will be asked from abroad The great
danger that threatens us is not from
any physical clash. but the great accu-
mutation of wind, drawn, as it is, to
one center-may, according to state
ments of reputable meteorologists,
cause cyclones and tornadoes.
Permit us, therefore, as a peace
loving citizen, to ask that these min
listers and officials either hire a hall
and talk this matter to finish-or,
through respect to long suffering
public, drop it. ANTI-NOISE.

RENDERED ny THE JURY, YES
TERDAY, IN CASE OF STATE
v. JOHN CRAWFORD.
DEATH PENALTY NOT IMPOSED.
The Code, In This Case, Prescribes
the Punishment mt Not Less Than
Seven Nor More Than Twenty
Years in the Penitentiary.

Yesterday afternoon the arguments of

dict of guilty, the penalty would have been
death, but with the recommendation at

in view of the evidence in the case, which
was strongly against the prisoner.

for Sensible Presents.
Too frequently do persons, In select
ing Christmas presents, consider only
beauty, and not usefulness. It is OBJ
vious that the receiver is better pleased
with an article of utility than a mere
ornament. Nothing is more acceptable
than an article of furniture. something
to adorn a parlor, bed room, or an
Office or library.
The Cooey, Bentz Co., corner Thirty
sixth and Jacob streets, have bought
so largely for the present holiday trade
that they have found it necessary to
rent large additional store room for
the display of their very complete line
of new goods and novelties. 1t en-
braces everything which may be de-
sired, and all goods are marked at q
very small margin of profit, while
terms are made as reasonable as pos
sible. Holiday buyers cannot pur-
chase so advantageously anywhere in
the city as at the Cooey, Bentz Co.
two big stores.
It would be impossible to enumerate
the full line of goods suitable for hoi-
iday gifts, which are displayed by the
Cooey, Bentz Co., but some hint to the
prospective buyer may be found in
the following list: Fancy lamps, rock
ers, sideboards, china closets, bed
room and parlor suites, ladies desks,
roll top Office desks, leather couches,
music cabinets, book cases, pictures
and easels, etc.
These articles and many others are
furnished in almost endless variety,
and at prices which the firm guaran-
tees to be as low, and in most instances,
lower than are charged elsewhere.
Articles may be purchased now for
Christmas delivery.

LOVES.

For the Register
You ask what means the word true love,
And who are they who dream,
Through raptures that are born above.
The plains of earth serene.
You ask if weak and mortal man
May hope through love TO rise.
Above ife'S narrow, selfish span,
That clouds affections skies.
You ask if one may hope to gain.
Contentment through her charm,
And if her sweet and mortal reign,
May diScord, vile, dlSarm-
And more you ask, as though one knew.
How precious sweet that gift,
Which spreads her white wings Ger the
true
The soul of song to lift
You bid us tell you, If we cam
How those who love in vain, -,
May hope that yet their truth Will ran,
Uncertain hight to flame.
We dare not say that one may tell.
The many treasures bright,
That lie within affections cell,
And need but 'true-ioves" light.
Some loves we shall not dwell ON here,
Which claim affections grace,
Whose bonds may often bring tear
To parting friendships face.
A mothers love for her own child
Is like a charm sublime
AS through affections tender SMILE
She seems to kiss lifes time.
A fathers love is ever strong,
More set on Ines of worth,
And rather prompts each right or wrong,
Through fear of dangers birth.
Sisters loves are sometimes swayed,
Through artificial light,
But when all truth is well arrayed,
They love as Others might.
A brothers love depends upon
The way the storm may blow,
And If Efe's gales are very strong,
The gem might be laid low.
A true wife's love Wilt brave all storms,
OF iifes great voyage through,
And crown each home with what adornS,
The happy loving few.
Of all the loves that we have known,
OF sister, friends, or brother,
There's ONE that shines above, alone.
To crown the brow of MOTHER.
