SOME BEAUTY HINTS.
A Timely Little Sermon on ssEpider- mal Ethics; OF How Not to
 Wash the Face"

There are three dont's involved in the first lesson in face washing: 1. Don't use a Sponge. ?. Don't use a crash wash-cloth. And the third and greatest of these is: Don't use very cold water. The first because it is almost constantly wet, is full of germs insidiously poisonous to the skin. The second irritates and is not permeative enough to cleanse thoroughly. Keep your Washcloth for the soles of your feet, if you must use one, for tradi- tion's. sake. Cold water shocks the skin and roughens7it by closing the pores. as ss
 The face should be washed in tepid water if one is going immediately out, and at other times in water as hot as one can stand 1t. Hot water is stimulating and cleansing. Bathing the face in it will remove the lines from tired woman's face as effec- tually as half-hour's sleep.
 Rub the face with antiseptic gauge "a fresh piece .frequently-and if blackhead's exist, fine cameTs hair complexion-brush used vigorously with some pure vegetable soap every night will do great deal toward rout- ing them. In washing the face always rub from the chin up, from the eyes in and from the forehead toward the temples. The face should be washed with soap at night only, then rubbed with pure cold cream or some Iano- line preparation. This little attention given to the face every night is abso- lute1y essential to clean skin and healthy pores.
 Hot milk is an excellent tonic for the face and continued application of it will render the skin as smooth and velvety as baby's cheek. In the morning immerse the face in warm water to which have been added few drops of benzoin. Dry the face with soft linen towel. Don't rub. Just pat. You are not employees of a Turk ish bath welding the ''crash," and the soil is not glued to your face. It will come off without taking the skin with it if you will use intelligence and hot water in persuading it.--Adele o. Lehr, in Chicago American.

CHATTER ON 'KERcHIEFs.

The sleeve handkerchief is nine inches square, and is designed to put in the sleeve at the wrist.
 Handkerchiefse embroidered in colors are among the seasons novelties. They are made of the sheerest linen, with narrow hem-stitched borders. and the designs embroidered in the four corners.
 Mourning handkerchiefs are among the prettiest designs this season. Few have deep black borders. They are generally hem-stitched, and are all white except for spray of hand-em. broidered daisies or other flowers in one corner entwined in few irregular black bars.
 The golf handkerchief is in the mar ket. 1t is made of silk and linen material, is corded, and is barred with delicate colors. In some the bars cover the whole handkerchief, in others they simply make a border. They are pret- ty, cool-looling affairs, and most ap- propriate for the links"
 Colored handkerchiefs are popular, especially the new French print. They are made with hem-stitched borders and designs that almost cover the handkerchief, in pink, blue and laven- der. Thistles, daisies, holly and clover are the designs. These handkerchiefs were made to use with gingham morn ing dresses and cotton shirt-waist suits.
 The glove handkerchief-that is the latest novelty in handkerchiefs. It is dainty little affair, and really a most desirable acquisition to the toilet. It is supposed to take the place of the or dinary handkerchief when that arti- cle becomes nuisance because there is no convenient place to put it. It is so small and the material so sheer that it can be stuck in the glove without be- ing clumsy or in the way.

A wealthy Londoner, Henry Blood, who is now in Washington, has uncov- cred the secret of American success. He said: 'I have discovered the secret of Americas success. It is because you do things over here and don't take for ever to think about it. An American will conceive project and carry it into successful execution while an English man is debating on how he shall take the first step. England must copy some of the American methods of doing busi- ness if it hopes to keep up in the race" !"

The return of the president found all the prominent men in Washington discussing the insular decisions of the United States supreme court and ar guing for and against an extra session of congress, as result of the decision that tariff could only be collected on goods from Porto Rico by an act of congress after 1t passed into the pos session of the United States to impose tariff upon imports from the Philip pines. The president at once took the side of those, who contend that the holding of the decision in the Philip pines case made it obvious that the similar to that decided on the Porto Rican tariff, and that even if the same principle were applied, no extra ses- sion of congress would be necessary, as the Spooner amendment adopted at the last session of congress clothes the president with fuH authority to impose any sort of tariff upon Philippine goods he pleases. There was an immediate falling off in extra session talk The war department has a new Philippine tariff all ready to be promulgated
 Meanwhile Secretary Gage has an- nounced that the treasury department will continue to collect duty under the Dingley tariff act on Philippine im- ports Much of the discussion of the insular decisions is so bound up in legal technicalities that it only seems to confuse the ordinary mind, but the fact that they uphold the right of the United States to own and control ter ritory outside of the United States proper in any way that congress and How the decisions upholding that right were reached and the arguments in the opinions of the individual mem bers of the court are, of course, mat ters of the deepest interest to constitu- tional lawyers, but the general public is only interested in the actual effect of the decisions. There is much talk about the narrowness of the margin in the most important decisions-fiye for and four against-but that amounts to nothing. The decision is just as bind- ing as though it had been unanimous, and close margins in important consti- tutional decisions have been the rule, rather than the exception, in the su- preme court for the last seventy years.

curse of the deceased, who lay wrapped in blanket in their midst. The Indians repeated a great deal of jargon which they called talk to the Great Spirit, and then. they laid the body of the chief in small hut, over which was hoisted an American flag.
 The sun was now directly above them and hot. Many of the dancers were naked to the waist as they formed a circle around two big fires. Two drum beaters sat near these fires and made alleged music by which the Indians hopped around in what they called dance. The leading medicine men, assisted by many of the dancers, chanted another appeal to the Great Spirit. The fire grew hotter and hot ter 5s the sacred wood was piled on, but the Indians never moved out of more excited. Some fell to the ground in dead faint. Others went into the medicine lodges and pretended to be ill. They went through all sorts of motions depicting their agony. The dance lasted all night and at daylight the Indians went into the river and bathed in running water.
 At noon on that day Red Eagle an- nounced to the assemblage that during the night the Great Spirit had ap- peared to him and ordered that Ka- wan-so be chosen as the successor of Wa-pa-ke-sek. When the newly ap- pointed chief came out of his lodge he was weak from fasting and being sweated of his impurities. The In- dians were silent as he walked across the dancing circle, where they had as- sembled to meet him. Suddenly one of the medicine men threw sacred white otter skin at him and the new chief fell as if dead. Then the two men who had acted as his escort dragged him by the feet across the floor of the lodge, where he had rushed before falling, while all the spectators threw their otter skins at him. All surpris- ingly the fallen chief arose and reach- ing into the air brought out totem and several otter skins. Then he brought pony seemingly out of the air and gave it to Red Eagle. He told the Indians he had gotten these pres ents from the Great Spirit as offerings of peace. It was big piece of decep- ton, and if the Indians did not know 1t they are biggerfools than one would take them for. But they want to be- lieve such feats are done in fact, as it Is 8 part of their religion.
 After few remarks to the Indians of his tribe the new chief declared him. self duly elected and installed and in- vited the 300 Indians to eat dog meat at his expense, which they did with relish. Ka-wan-so will rule four years. YOu Never Can Tell. You never can tell what the future may bring;
 Where never was blossom sweet bird
 may sing;
 And the Towering vine to the dead tree may cling,
 And light may come out O the darkness! You never can tell, in life's sorrows and
 sighs,
 But call to the future may wake sweet replies
 And bright stars undreamed-of illumine the skies
 Out of the darkness-the darknessl IF. l.. Stanton, in Atlanta Constitution.

English Royal Customs.

Everybody may not know that in royal households it is not the custom to re1ight candle. For however short time it has been burning, if once extinguished, it is never used agafn-at least not in the precincts of the palace. Another quaint mon- archial custom is that there are al- ways two sets of servants, to insure better service. The one set goes on duty for three weeks, and when that time has expired another set will take their place, so that in the sovereign's palace there is always one complete retinue at work while their duplicates are resting until their three weeks of Onlooker.

G. ". Hill, chief of the division of publications of the department of agri- culture, believes that a small charge should be made for the books issued by that department, not to get the money, but because is would save an enormous waste caused by sending publications to those who make no use of them. Speaking of his idea, MT Hill said: During the last fiscal year we publish ed about S,0O0,000 copies of our various documents. This was an increase of 100000 over the previous year. The congressional appropriation for the coming year stipulates that each con- gressman shall receive 14,00O copies of each farmers bulletin instead of the 5000 he is now receiving. For next year, my lowest estimate of our publi- cations is 11,O00,OOO. At the presnt time many of our documents are vast ed, care1essly thrown aside or mis- placed. If paid for, even at five cents piece, they would receive more care. The money received from the sale of the documents should be .placed~in g regular printing fund, to be expended for printing new bulletins I have also suggested that each of our publications be sent to library to be established at all fourth-class post offices. There are 60,00O of these, so even by that means, counting the increase which is bound to come, our books would re- ceive wide dissemination"

Ice in the sick Room.

One way to keep ice in the sick room is to fasten a piece of flannel in a deep tin pan or pail so that it will sag in the middle, but will not touch the bottom of the pail. In this flannel a piece of ice can be put and so wrapped in its enye1oping folds that no air can reach it. When small pieces need to be broken off pin, prefera- ply hat pin, can be used.

TO BE RUSHED TO THE CHAIR
A Map of the Route Czolgosz Will
 Take.

Buffalo Sept. 14.-District Attorney Thomas Penney took steps today 10 bring Leon Czolgosz. the assassin of President Mckinley, to an immediate trial for that crime.
 On Monday morning MT. Penney will present to the county court grand jury now in session evidence of the das- tarily crime and there is not the slight est shadow of doubt that Leon Czoi- gosz will be indicted for murder in the first degree.
 County Judge Edward K. Emory will immediately receive the report of that indictment from the grand jury. Pen- ney will at once move that the indict- ment be transferred to the superior court for trial, as capital offenses can not be tried in the county court Judge Emory will direct this order. Then Czolgosz can be arraigned to plead to the indictment on Monday, September 23
 It is not known that he will be ar raigned then, but that is the earliest day upon which the prisoner could be brought before the court, as at thc present time there is no session of the supreme court. On September g Jus tice White will convene the regular September term of part III of the su,- preme court, which part is set aside for the trial of criminal cases. Should the murderer inform the court that he has no counsel and that he has no means with which to employ one. th,. court will be required to assign an at torney to defend the prisoner upon trial of indictment for murder.
 District Attorney Penney is perfect ly confident that Czolgosz will be con- victed of the crime Of murder in the first degree; that is, that the crime was deliberate and premeditated, and ths penalty for which under the laws of New York state is death by electrocu- tion. District Attorney Penney will. permit of no delay and the dastard as sassin will be given a speedy trial by a jury.

A POISONED BULLET?
The Prospect of an Interesting Medi-
 cal Controversy.

Buffalo, Sept. 14.-A death mask will be made of the dead president here by a Washington artist named Garet. Al the presidents relatives ana friends agreed that it would be desirable that the features of the martyred president should be preserved for the sake of history.
 Pursuing the precedent laid down in the case of uarfield. the coroner sim ply viewed the body this morning and later gave a certificate in accordance with the result of the autopsy. which declared that death was unavoidable by any surgical or medical treatment and was tine direct result of the bullet wound
 The report of the autopsy has again given rise to 2 theory f-nted at day or two after the president was shot, that Czolgosz, in order to insure the accomplishment Of his purpose, used poisoned bullets. Gangrene found 'n the path of the bullet is thought to be strong evidence in support of this view by Dr. Wasdin, one of the consulting physicians. pr. Wasdin is considered an expert of high standing in the ma rine hospital service.
 A chemical and bacteriolosical ex- animation of the remaining bullets in the pistol will. however. confirm or de- molsh this theory. and such an exam ination will undoubtedly be made. Whether this theory is established or not, it seems probable that the resui; of the autopsy will give rise to medical controversy.
 The gangrened condition Of the in- terior wounds which the physicians
 thought were healed, ana the fact that
 the physicians announced positively that the kidney which the bullet tore | in it's passage through the abdomen { was uninjured, were so contrary to what was expected by the public after
 the statements of the physicians dur | ing the progress of the case that its | discussion seems inevitable.
 1 The poisoned bullet theory might .i
 course account for the puzzling and
 sudden reversal of Mir. McKinley's con
 dition just when the physician laid
 such great stress on his improved con- dition and gave such strong hopes ci
 his recovery. The bullet was not found although an hours search was made foI
 it. The x ray apparatus was not ready
 for the use of the physicians and the location of the bullet is still unknown

A DAY OF GLOOM
Phoenix Draped in Somber Hue, Mourns the Martyred President.

Though the sun shone brightly and ,ra streets were filled with people, th re was never a mere gloomy day in Phoenix than yesterday. The great sorrow that rests upon all the people was depicted on every face, and there ,,as no attempt to cheer each other. Though the usual joke and laugh were nassed as casual remark and incident suggested. al seemed to end in a m1ckirg sound.
 Fear was not an elemsnt of the uni vsrsaI sadness, for there never was a time when the people as a whole had less t5 fear, but an inexpressible grief pcrvaded everything, a grief which in dicates that humanity is more than human: and can rise above human self ishness. Both men and women were distr Ssed and the actions of the former were most noticeable to the latter, for seldom is the sterner sex as a whole, given to prolonged and unus- ual silence. Many women were heard 10 remark upon the seeming mofose- ness of their husbands, saying that they acted as though some near and dear relation had been taken suddenly away.
 About the city the garb of mourning assumed the night before. deepened as
  house failed to display the flag draped in mourning and many of them dis played the picture of MT. Mckinley ap- p-opriately enshrouded in black. The county court house was deeply drapsd in black, and over the entrance a large picture was placed as above de- scribed. At the city hall the councilmen employed a professional decorator, who labored all day long for a tasteful effect in the arranging of the sombre fabrics. Many whl had saved their red, white and blue decorations. used on the occa- sion of the presidents visit to Phoe- nix. put thsm in place again with the added mingling of steamers of crepe. Little they thought that when laid away last May the fabrics were being preserved for so sad a duty in honor of the memory of the nan who was so recently welcomed to Phoenix with shouts of joy and loud acclaim.
