USE or COSMETICS.

The woman of today who spends time,
thought, money and occupation on the
care and the beauty of her skin had her
prototype in the women Of earlier CEN
turtles.
Even in the unhappy ages when peO-
pie knew nothing of the bath and it's re-
~JuVenatlng properties noted beauties
found out the secret of preserving their
loneliness by ablutionary aids. Isabeau
of Bavaria heard that c~hickenwced was
good for the skin and had enormous de-
coctions brewed from it, in which she
bathed daily. Diana of Poitiers was an
other clearly cOQuette and plunged into
a TUB OF every morning.
The eighteenth century beauties like
wise believed in bathing, but they put
all sorts of odd infusions into the water
to improve the skin-such as bouillion
in. which the veal had been boiled, water
distilled from the honey extracted from
roses, a preparation of almonds, melon
juice. the milky juices of green barley,
liIlseed distilled with Mexican balm dis
solved by the yolk of an egg. These re-
marhable decoctions were freely used by
the ladies at the courts Of Louis, before
the revolution.
Queen Marie Antoinette made liberal
use of the bath, putting into the water
wild thyme, laurel leaves, marjory and a
little sea salt.
Marie CzetWertynOska. the Russian
beauty who exercised so great an inhu-
ence over Car Alexander /, used to battle
in Malaga wine.
The Marechal Davoust, Princess Eek
muhl, was at 50 renowned for her Queenly
carriage, superb eyes and beautiful color,
her skin being 50 white as to rival the
snow of her undan locks. She had
never used anything but pure water on
her face, and she always kept to a very
simple diet, even when her table was
loaded with good cheer for her guests.
She remained equally attractive to her
last hour, although in her youth she had
been one Of the prettiest women of her
time. Her daughter, Nine. De Blocque-
vile, lived to be just such another white-
haired beauty, and was noted in her old
age for dressing with consummate taste
and elegance.

WHAT PAPA SAID.

There was silence for a moment.
Presently she spoke, and the tone OF
voice she selected to use was tremulous
and pleading.
"Gustavius, dearest, do-do you ever
drink"
Reluctantly he admitted that there were
occasions when he glanced carelessly up
on the wine when it was ready.
"Ah! dearest" she continued, with anx-
iety depicted on her lovely features what
do you suppose pa would say if he should
discover that his only daughters future
husband drank"
He discovered it yesterday afternoon
responded Gustavius, with some of the
same old reluctance.
oh, and what did he say?' she inquir-
ed, ~breathlessly.
He said"-the manly young fellows
voice trembled-"he said, Well, G~ustavius
my boy, 1 don't care if I do. Mines the
same, with just a dash of bitters.'"
There was silence for a moment-pOs-
sibly two moments-Baltimore American.

stories than that, stranger he added
authoritatively, "and l could. bat ]
won't. l won't even hint at 'em. You
wouldn't believe 'em, and it wouldn't
be your fault because you couldn't. But
you can swallow the Observation-Disclosures

almost as good a quail story as that one
is true as preaching.
Some day. when you git to know more
about this country, I'll meet you and put
you onto some real interesting facts
about quail and other game in this part
of Michigan. Good-by, stranger; here's
where l git off"
The reporters interest in the quail
story he had heard and the quail story
he knew to be true, were SO great that
he forgot to max any memoranda re-
specting the names of the conductor or
engineer of the train he was travelling
on. It's a train that runs from Manistee
to East Saginaw every day, however,,

less delayed by too many quail. More
over, its engineer and onducto are re-

sc!entious TO think Of planting quail in q

You needn't look surprised, friends
aid the man, turning and addressing
half a dozen listening passengers, "and
you needn't be in-c-red-u-lous This
story's all right, as you'll see in a min
ute, when l get far enough along to
make it clear to you. Martin Hand

less he'd blown out one Of the cylinder
heads of his engine. Now, mind, l don't
say he blew out the cylinder head pit

prove by the records of the Dad. And
l can prove by Martin Hands report
that he managed to get the engine to the
shop with one cylinder-discOnnected the
drive wheels on one side, you know, so
that the piston didn't work in the busted
cylinder.
ODD WAY OF SHARING QUAIL.
"Of course, he pulled along slow like

when he was letting the old engine rest
I went up front to take a look at the
break, just out of curiosity. At first I
didn't see anything more than a smashed

fiuttering noise.
1T seemed like it was in the cylinder.

a noise, but l looked in. Sure enough,
there was where the noise came from,
and it was a quail that made it. The
poor little creetur was alive, or it could
not have fiuttered. and it wasn't much

COLOR-BLIND PAINTERS.

To speak Of a color blind artist sounds
like joking, said a noted Oculist: but,
strange as it may seem, there are several
persons so affected who can nevertheless
paint extremely well. Numbers of color
blind people there are, of course, who,
draw perfectly in pencil, ink and crayonS,
but ] myself know a scene painter at
tached to a provincial theater who, though
color Blind paints all it's scenery, and
has quite a local name, not only for his
'intreiors" and oak chambers, but even
for landscapes.
I can tell you also of two London Ia
dies who consulted me for color blindness
who pant really beautiful pictures. One
is the daughter of a late famous artist
and was taught painting by her father.
She is quite unable to distinguish red
from green, but her colors are labelled
with the names, and she has been taught
which to use for certain effects. Possibly
her painting may seem to her eyes, as it
We're, drawing with a brush and "Shad-

The other is a lady artist of some
celebrity, who has for years exhibited an
nually in London The public is not
aware that she is cOlOr-blind. She paint
ed the wedding Group for a certain
noble bridegroom a year or two ago, and
also several public mems portraits and
one of an eminent physician fetched 500
guineas.
There is a gentleman residing at Ken
sington who, having years ago left the
navy through finding his Advancement
hopelessly barred by his colOr-blindness,
is at present making several hundreds a
| year by his brush as an artist, designing
most artistic and brightly colored picture

begin when the train slackened up and
the trainmen called out the name of d
station-'Clarer'
Among the passengers getting on was
a friend of the man in the blouse, and
TINS put a temporary stop to the relation
OF his yarn. At that moment the con
ductor entered the car in a state of great
excitement. Marching up to the reporter,
he requested him and a travelling COM

This was a distinct challenge, and the
passenger, still more mystified, climbed

through the broken headlight glass.
There he saw a bird lying limp and life

flector.

A few days ago a reporter Of this news
paper was travelling eastward across
Michigan, when the passengers in the
smoking car were beguiling the rolling
hours by telling stories. Stimulated by
the unprecedented number of birds that
frequently rose in perfect clouds from
the right of way" as the train sped
along, the stories told were largely tales
of marvellous bags Of quail and partridge
and other such like game that had re-
Gently been secured in that part of the
state. Most of these tales were Of Mum
ch~ausen-like quality, but they all seemed
to lack ingenuity and novelty to the re-
porter, and he concluded to sleep awhile,

They say that the directors of the COM

are going to issue an order that a conduc-
tor on receiving a fare from a woman
must raise his hat and bow profoundly,
A traveller asked a conducto about it
and the latter said "Such an order is
unnecessary. We do it now, but only to
those women who get into a car With
their nickel in their hand and don't keel
us waiting while they find their pocket"
How many times do you take off your
hat?" saked the traveller.
I've never had to 10 1t yet" the con-
ductor answered, but 1 nearly had to
once. The woman had the fare in her
hand, but 1t was a lead nickel and a
plugged one at that."-New York Sun.

ommend him but an o~verabundance of
energy and brains. This has been the
perpetual nightmare of Papa Astor ana
it is generally alleged by Mrs. Grumpy
that it has been due to this fact entirely
that the beautiful heiress has not been
allowed to either visit America or to
mingle with Americans of youthful
hearts and warm temperaments.
However. much to the horror of Mrs.
Grundy. there is a strong possibility
that the youthful Astor debutante may
kick over the traces and thus upset the
applicant of her fond papa's anticlpa-
tons. The Duke of RoXburghe is younS
wealthy and even said to be unusually
attractive and pleasing, but he is not
