ADJUSTMENTS.
DIR. II. b. Il. CRIsTIoN,


Perfection in grace and beauty is the
Chief desire OF womankind. Beauty of
face and form are woman's two most at.
tractive characteristics. To attain these
two subtle charms has been the chief
aim OF many women who appreciate
their own imperfections and who have
CROPPED blindly to acquire that which
ignorance of the true remedies rendered
impossible to attain. DIR. II. b. r,
Cristion, late of the Paris schools of
beauty and ply sical culture, thoroughly
understands the formula and holds the
key TO the gate that leads to beauty and
grace, will lecture at the Opera House on
Monday and Tuesday nights. The
knowledge he imparls is like a draught
from the tabled fountain of perpetual
youth, SO ardently sought by the gray-
haired and decrepit Ponce de Leon that
ne might restore the vigor and grace of
his younger days. He sustains a repu-
tation 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.

mastered it." he says. must stand amazed at
the moderation Of the British Government" 1t
Is pleasant to find Mr.. Halstead himself for all
his cordiality toward the British, for all his
candid criticism Of the Beers. writing on the
whole with admirable moderation. His work is
divided into two parts. the first summarizing
the history Of South Africa and describing its
resources, the second dealing with the present
conflict from its rise in the conditions immedl
ately following Majuba Hill to the surrender of
Cronje at Paardeberg and the occupation of
Bloemfontein. The numerous illustrations en-
brace portraits Of the prominent personages on
both sides of the war and military pictures. The
book will doubtless obtain the popular circula-
ton at which II aims.
Mr.. Pearse has enjoyed a slight advantage in
the failure of some Of his letters from besieged
Ladysmith to get at once into print. Brought
out in book form, they leave clearer I'M
preston than If they had appeared at inter
walls in a newspaper, and their publication after
the event has enabled editorial hand to fill
in more than one hiatus. making the whole
batch Of correspondence homogeneous and more
like history. The book tells Of perils which Mr..
Pearse shared with the soldiers. One Of the
illustrations shows the Royal Hotel with that

in their political aspirations he perceives the
natural insecurity OF their basis. The Beers
are a. narrow minded race. he believes, whose
pastoral and patriarchaI mode Of life, with its
leaning toward the enslavement Of the inferior
race IN South Africa units them to guide the
march Of progress in the Dark Continent. That
march is inevitable The British, concludes Mr.
Halstead are destined to preside It. their
commanding relation to it is not only inevitable
but altogether desirable and his volume offers
at a survey Of events and a careful eluci-
dalton of the points in the South African case
which make for British supremacy.
Mr. Halsteads view of the question has been
determined largely by his confidence in the SUI
periority Of the British over the Boer character
in political administration It looks also to the
peculiar facts OF recent years in the Transvaal.
He has patience with those who would ele-
vate Mr.. Krtger upon the pedestal Of a saint.
He portrays him instead "a monster despot"
a Grass reactionary whose rule has been harm
full all concerned. AS for the treatment Of
the Outlanders, the author observes that Mr..
Krtgers famous wisdom policy consisted simply
in refusing to permit those who conferred wealth
and distinction upon his barbaric State to insert
even the thinnest possible edge Of a wedge into
the knotted log of his despotism." Mr. Cham
