How to Make Cold Cream,

In preparing creams or lotions II
must be remembered that the formula
should be followed exactly il certain
results are expected.
Fats or oils should be melted over
slow fire by the least possible heat,
and in a double boiler preferably. The
method as given of adding the other
ingredients should be closely adhered
to. Tinctures and extracts are in
variably added at the last, when the
mixture has slightly cooled. and drop
by drop, or at least very slowly.
Glycerine, properly used, is an in
valuable cosmetic. 1t whitens. softens
and dissolves coloring matter when
carefully combined with other agents.
such as rose, elder flower or orange
water. 1t is very injurious used in
concentrated form, as it burns, parches
and yellows the skin.
Fats are the basis of all cold creams.
Wax and spermaceti are often added
to give requisite firmness, but possess
no intrinsic value. They are inclined
to clog the pores Perfumes, aside
from being agreeable additions. pos.

EDWARD Wi AND HARRIET LANE.
Happiest Memory of His American
Tour Is Visit to White House.

During the prince of Wales stay in
Washington upon the occasion of his
visit to America, in 1860, he was
President Buchanans guest, and occu-
pied apartments of the executive man
sion looking over Lafayette Square, -
writes William Perrine, in the Ladies'
Home Journal. "One evening when
an elaborate display of fireworks was
given in his honor he stood on the
balcony of the white house, together
with Mr.. Buchanan and Miss Lane.
amidst great cheers. When dining
with mis- hosts he would escort Miss
Lane to the table, seating himself at
her right. His manner was somewhat
bashful, and most public ceremonies
apparently bored him. But while he
was with Miss Lane and the coterie of
beautiful women of her set it was not
ed that for the first time since he had
been in this country he seemed to show
the manner of gallant young gentle
man DESTROYS of pleasing. One of the
merriest mornings she had with him
was at gymnasium ian Washington
attached to female seminary. On the
brass rings suspended from the cell
ing he swung himself one by one
across the room, and the whole party
laughed heartily at his pranks on the
rope ladder. Then he fell to playing
Cenpins. Miss Lane and the prince
together succeeded in conquering Mrs.
Thompson and the duke of Newcastle;
it was next the turn of the victors to
play against each other, and Harriet,
who was one of the most robust girlsof
the day, speedily outbowled the prince
and put his muscle to shame"

Dexter at the Bat.

There was ease in Dexters manner,
there were twists in Dexter's legs,
AS he ambled to the rubber like man
who walks on eggs.
And when, responding to the gibes, he
made an awful face,
You would have thought twas poker,
and he hadn't drawn that ace!
Four hundred chumps applauded while
he tilted back his hat,
Eight hundred hands got busy as he
swung his little bat,
But when the ball came whizzing, and
the umpire yelled Strike onei"
The thin crowd walled in anguish, for
the game seemed surely done!
Again the pitcher poised the ball,
again he let it fly,
And Dexter. with an awful swat, drove
leather to the skyl
Around the bases skipped the runs,
the pitchers feet grew cold,
And the game was won by Dexter
that swat was good as gold!

The Jews IN GREECE.

King Georges Realm.

Full Rights are Denied the Race IN
King Georges Realm.
Whatever may have been the con
nections between Greeks and Jews in
past, the points of contact between
them at the pregent day are com
paratively few, for the Jewish popula
ton in the kingdom of King George
appears to be not only small, but
stationary. It's numbers, which IN
1891 were given at 5,722, are returned
In 1901 as $500, or a net increase OF
eight in ten years. SmalIness OF
numbers need not affect the natural
interest which English Jews feel in
their Greek brethren, and aprticularly
English Jews, for it was largely
owing to the efforts of the British
government that Greece became an
Independent kingdom. Moreover, the
fact that the Ionian islands were a
direct gift from this country to Greece
intensifies the interest of English
Jews In the fate of their brethren In
that part of the Greek kingdom. 1t
is true that the handful of Greek Jews
have no legal or state made dis
abilities like the Jews of Russia and
Roumania. In principle the fullest
equality obtains. But in practice.
even so ardent an apologist for the
Greek government as DIR. Belief has
to admit that 1t would be "pre-
posterous" to argue that 'the Jews
actually enjoy in Greece full rights"
When the premier of country
publicly declares that all Jews ought
to be put back so years it is lido to
contend that the Jews of that country |
are emancipated in fact, whatever |
they may be in name. The truth of |
the matter seems to be that in enamel |
pating the Jews the Greek authorities,
like the authorities in France, were
considerably in advance of the senti- |
ment of the people as a whole. This |
popular backwardness found brutal
expression in the ritual excuses some
years ago-excesses which drove Jews
away from the Ionian islands, where
they had once enjoyed the fullest
liberty under the British, and whose
effects have even now not entirely
vanished. IL seems as though the
long enslavement of people tends to
crush out its ideas or liberty, and 10
make of it a tyrant when it In turn
becomes free. The case of Roumania,
perhaps. is much more striking illus
tration of this than that of Greece.
Still, the decorations conferred by the
Greek government on several Jews
may betoken the development OF
better feeling toward the Jews. In
the ordinary course of things 1t would
only be natural 10 anticipate the
evolution of the ideas of people like
the Greeks in the direction OF liberty
OF thought and freedom of conscience.

The Ruling Passion.

On every vacant lot in town
Baseball the kids are playing,
And though in science they may lack,
Right with the rules they're staying.
They pick their teams with due regard
For vigor in disputing
And those who can't get in the game
With vehemence are roofing.
The pitcher does contortion acts,
In faithful imitation
or others who have greater fame
And hold much higher station,
The catcher stands behind the bat,
Where signals he is making,
Then roasts the pitcher when on balls
The man" base is taking.
Foul tips go speeding to the street,
And now and then are shocking
The timid persons who are grazed.
While quietly there walking,
At times a four-base hit is made.
And there is praise unstinted
When Ger the plate" though out of
breath,
The kid has safely sprinted.
And now and then the players hear
A sudden, fearful crashing,
Because the ball has crossed the fence
And done some window smashing.
A cry is raised-"Here comes the
copi"-
And then the kids are showing
How easy tits to make home runs.
In all directions going.
There's trouble all around the town
When kids the game are playing.
For balls they're knocking every
where,
And ne'er for damage paying.
But some of them. in years to come.
May win wide reputation.
And be regarded by the fans"

ment that the baseball season has
opened in dead earnest The poetical
fan of the Denver Times chants as
follows:
Now we sit in stand and bleachers,
gazing at the active creatures who
are posing as the features of quite
enthusing game.
And we see the gentle fylet, as it
wanders toward the skylet and for
center field is pielet, which we think
is rather tame;
But we find some satisfaction in the
violent reaction when the ball
strikes up attraction with the dim

we've had some chases for our hard
earned so cents.

YOU CANNOT CURE PILES
Py Internal Rernedias.

The only sure way to cure every form
of piles is to use a remedy like the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure, which is applied directly 10
the parts affected, and its wonderful heal
ing effects are apparent from the first APP
plication because the medicinal properties
are rapidly absorbed by tissues and SER
sltive membranes of the rectunl. and the
cure is made speedily and almost before
the patient is aware of it, every trace OF
piles has left him.
This is one of the reasons WHY the Pvra
mid Pile Cure has been so uniformly sue
cessful. 1t is applied directly just where
it is needed and where it will do the MOST
good. Not by the roundabout way of the
stomach nor by the harsh, barbarous
methods of various surgical operations
and so-called systems.
Direct applications to the seat Of disease
is the only rational way, and this is fully
accomplished by the Pyramid Pile Cure.
II the voluntary testimony of thousands
who have tried this remedy is worth any
thing, then no sufferer has any excuse for
longer delaying in giving it a fair trial.
knowing that when you do so the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure will have made one more
friend, the best possible advertisement we
can have. The chief advantages of the
remedy are: 1t cures without pain, the
cure is lasting, 1t contains no poison ana,
lastly, it is the cheapest and quickest cure
yet found. Your druggist can tell you
what it has done for others.
Testimonials OF cures from all parts Of
the United States will be sent on applica-
tion to the Pyramid Drug Co. Of Marshall.
