PRETTY IRISH GIRLS.
why the Lasses of the Emerald Isle
Are Beautiful.

The Irish peasant girls have long
been famous for their beautiful, clear
skins and healthy compilations. They
owe much of their lovelness TO the
moisture Of the climate and the sim
plicity Of their lives. Plain. wholesome
fare and rainwater for the wash basin
tell their own tale. No matter how
homely are the features Of the genuine
peasant girl. her skin is almost invaria-
bly, soft and firm. the arms nicely
rounded, the eyes brilliant and express

There are no eyes finer than those of
the healthy daughter of Erin's isle.
Soft and tender one moment. TO flash
with passion if aroused; dark blue,
gray or brown, the Irish eye is pecul-
iarly lovely and possesses a luster all
its own. Long lashes shadow these be-
witching orbs-lashes that curl upward
to sweep the cheek when the face is
betrayed into bushes.
So much time is spent out of doors
that the feet. usually bare. become en-
larged. The ankle. however. is usually
well shaped and neat. the instep high
and the skin of baby fineness. The
Irish girl of humble station is proud
of her shapely feet and believes that
walking through the grass before sun
rise in summer enhances their beauty,
which. of course. it does.

FAusT's WILD CHARGE.
Il Sent Marguerite Flying In Terror
From the Stage.


The name of the hero of this anec-
dote shall not give you. for he has
long since been gathered to his fathers.
Let it suffice that in his heyday he
was one of the greatest tenors who
ever sang TO a breathless and enthusi-
astic audience. He had a penchant,
however, for the red. red wine. which
in the end proved his undoing and ulti-
mately provided a pathetic ending for
an otherwise great career. In his prime
his drinking seemed only 10 affect his
legs, but never his head or voice He
could always sing and sing true. but at
times he had no more ability TO guide
his wandering footsteps than has a
sufferer in the last stages Of locomotor
ataxia.
At one time. when he was singing
Faust 10 Emma Abhott's Marguerite,
he appeared at the opera house in an
apparently hopeless condition. The
management was wild but there was
no one to take his place. ana so they
had 10 chance il with him as Faust.
All went well until they came to that
scene where Faust, in leaving Margue-
rite. crosses the stage and then. giving
way to an impulse. PUSHES back and
kisses Marguerite yet once again ere
taking his departure.
Faust on this occasion got to the 9th
err side OF the stage all right. but trou-
BILE arose when he tried to get back.
Marguerite sits in the window of her
cottage and Faust comes back and
kisses her through the window. Faust
measured the distance with a wabbling
eye, but made a start when his cue
was given. Then he seemed TO lose
control of himself One-quarter way
across he was trotting, one-half way
the trot was a run, and the remainder
Of the way 1t had become a gallop.
Up to this point Miss Abbott stood
her ground hravely, but that rapidly
approaching figure awed her. and with
frightened scream she fed. Faust,
poor Faust, charged on He reached
the place he had last seen Marguerite
and essayed TO clasp the atmosphere in
outstretched arms Then his impetus
carried him through the window, and
all that the astounded audience looked
upon were his waving legs. Somebody
pushed him back, and. absolutely I'M
disturbed he finished the opera. sing
ing in an unusually superb manner.
Not so with the unfortunate Margue-
rite. however. for from then on she was
suffering from a case of ''rattles, "
which in simple justice should have
been the property of Faust.-New York

The correct posture for sleep is to lie
on the right side with the limbs stretch
ed out to their full length and the arms
either straight down by the body or in
any comfortable position. provided they
are not raised above the head. The
mouth should be closed. and all the
muscles of the body should be relaxed.

NEWSPAPER OPINION
0uayism and Addiksism

RuaIloH anu NuulhololU
From the Smyrna Call.
The State Sentinel takes the Phila-
Idelphia Press to task because the Press
refuses to support the State ticket
made last week by the disheputable
gang who controlled the last Legisla-
ture Of rotten memory in that State.
The Sentinel plainly draws a COMPARE
son between the condition of affairs in
Pennsylvania and the national admin
istration's position in the premises and
the similar status of affairs in our
own State. IL denounces the admins
traton because the latter recognizes
Charles Emory Smith, reputed editor
Iof the Press, just as 1t denounces 1t for
recognizing the anti-Addicks element
in Delaware.
The comparison is unfortunate. BY
lit the Sentinel admits that Quayism
land Addicksism are synonymous. So
be it. The record of Pennsylvania
recent Legislature reelSs with rotten
ness and corruption. This was Quay
ism. So corrupt and venal was this
body that the charge is openly made
by reputable Republican journals that
the members were bought with a
stated price TO do the nefarious work CT
the bosses. who made the ticket which
the Press and all other reputable Re
publican papers refuse to support. The
Sentinel calls these journals who have
the integrity and principal to stand out
against this corruption party wreck
ers.' just as It calls reputable Repub-
licans who oppose Addicksism party
wreckers. There's where the obtuse-
ness of the Sentinel is made manifest.
Party wreckers and State wreckers
both are the men who corrupt the fran
chise of State for their own selfish
lbenefit. Party conservators are those
who have the manhood to stand for
\ principal against corruption even in
their own party. The Sentinel. of
course cannot understand this. But il
/ is understood by honest citizenship
everywhere just the same.
! Why does the Sentinel single out the
Press alone when seven-eighths of the
Republican journals of Pennsylvania
stand Just where the Press does? If its
editor will take them up seriatim he
will find work enough to keep him
busy for a twelve-month.

No. l3 Oueered the Train

That No. Is is an unlucky combina-
ton of figures is believed by many
persons, but with trainmen and sailors
thirteen ranks with the best, and is
feared accordingly. 1t was recently
that it came to the Wayfarer how a
railroad engineer breads this number.
The unlucky 10 is watched closely by
railroad men in general, and as a rule,
train dispatchers do not issue an order
with that number. A new dispatcher
on a nearby Baltimore and Ohio divi-
sion the other day handed an engineer
an order numbered Is. The latter no
ticed the figures at once and made a
protest, but it was too late to make a
change. The trip was without acct
dent. but the train was late. Several
times there were delays, and the crew
was uneasy until the destination was
reached.

We believe that the whole move

many persons by the resolution. Such
an investigation should proceed in an
orderly manner. and proper procedure
suggests that an investigation should
investigate before issuing violent reso-
buttons. Had such a conclusion been
