George w. Atkins. the well-known
Peninsula salesman for the celebrated
Atkins Shirt, Of Milton. Del. in COM
pany with his wife, is spending a few
days in this city with his ubiquitous eye
watching the construction of his mud
die buggy top, at the popular carriage
factory of Samuel j. White. Mr.. White
is using his best skill to make the pret-
tiost shape top on record. This is an
Improvement in buggy tops, and a
practical idea. No more leaving your
curtains at home CT under the cush-
icns TO be broken and ruined or under
the seat in the dirt. but always have
them with You in the top. to be pulled
up or down at your will like a window
shade or half way down when In the
sun. Also will prevent those large
holes in the side after a carriage is used
awhile. This idea of Mr. Atkins was
patented On April "a. 1900.

Dcanoss Cannot BE cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way TO cure deafness.
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an innamed condi-
ton Of the mucous lining OF the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube gets iniiamcd
YOU have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing. and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result. and unless the in
nammation can be taken out and this tube
restored TO its normal condition. hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases OUT
of ten are caused by catarrh. which s.
nothing but an iufamcd condition of the
mucous surfaces.

The pulpit is not place for amuse-
ment. Such things disgrace the church
and lower the dignity of the preacher.
Seriousness. solemnity, dignity and
good common sense are prerequisites
for the man of God who speaks to dy'
ing men. Men and women ordinarily
go to church for comfort, consolation
and encouragement. They prefer to
have their consciences keenly aroused
and their hatred to sin and their love
for righteousness awakened to the point
of appreciation of the evil of the first
and their love for the other intensified.
All this cry about separation from and
lack of sympathy for the poor is the
veriest trash. Here and there some
one may wish to exclude the poor from
the magnificent church of which he Is
a member. but he in no sense interprets
the minds of vast majority of his fel-
low members. The church of today is
the best friend the poor man has. and
the wonder is he does not know it

How to Wash Your Face,

Telling girls allow to be Pretty though
Plain" Mrs. Humphry, in Ladies' Home
Journal, guarantees any girl good COM
piexion who will wash her face every
night and morning, and twice a day be-
sides, according to her directions:
1.-THE water must not be quite cold in
wiater, and soap should be used but once
q day. The fingers are better than any
sponge or glove or flannel, and they
should be used as the masseuse uses hers
pressing them firmly but gently into the
skin and passing them two or three times
over every inch of the face.
"More particular pains should be de-
voted to the corners, where dust is al.
ways liable to lodge, around the eyes,
nose and mouth. II a washcIoth is used
II should be OF the softest and finest, aud
plenty OF water should be applied after
the soap so as to wash 1t all away. The
drying process should be equally thorough
and effectual, a hurried rub opening the
way to all sorts OF roughness and chap
pings. Not one girl In twenty knows
how to wash her face, and that In the
reason why massage aourishes. Il
thoroughly cleanses."
