h h,rmonious, q ssllow or muddy compile exion
NAV be freshened, frightened and made clear;
dull eyes without xpression, may g1sten and
sparkle and unsightly blemishes OF every kind
may be rem owed. Facial defects and shrunken,
impoverished, undeveloped figures may be per-
manently remedied and womanly beauty ac-
uuircd and retained. 1t is every woman's duty
to accomplish these results" The Marilla Com.

NE WAS A COACHMAN YET.

Once on a time there were two men.
Ambitious Dick ana thoughtless Bsa.
And both drove coaches for boss
And played together pitch and iosA
Around the livery stable they
Spent many I rough bu. happy Gay;
They lauehs3 at one anothers jokes
And on clay pipes had chummy smoksA
Al last Dick left and Ben remained.
And after years had waNed and wansd
Jhere to the stable came man
To hire q handsome coach and span
Ben was the driver. Just the same,
Tough. rough and ready as his mama:
The gentleman, well dressed. and proud,
Was eyed with awe by al the crowd
Ru, something IN his face or tone
Appealed TO Driver Ben alone
He'd seen the gentleman before
Bue where and when? Ho watched him
more.
Along they rode, Ren thinking who
Could be that stylish gent he knew.
Then came a fash Of emory quick
Why, bless my heart-he's my OLD DfcA'
With hand held out and beaming eyes.
Ben turned around in glad surprise;
"Why. Dickl Ola chuml This IL a 5oy-
I'm glad TO see you. Shake, old boyr
The gentleman Ben coldly eyed:
His Kid gloved hand stayed at his SIDE.
why, Dick! I'm Ben-Ben Hick, you
know
Your coaching partner Long ago"
The passenger seemed not TO share
Ben's pleasure at the meeting there;
Excuse me, Mr.. Hick," said he.

why, Dick! Don't you remember when
We both we're coachmen," answered bsn

a dozen inmates. A good farm Is also
owned by the poor district.
At least two Susouchanna county
editors have yearning desire to go
to the legislature; and yet their ex-
cessive modesty prevents them from
announcing the important fact in their
own papers. Such self-sinking Is Its
own best reward.

evidently appeased. 1t hasn't swal-
lowed a newspaper in month.
