The Secret of Beauty.

Here is another "secret of beauty"
OF course, every woman wants to be
beautiful, and. according to Miss Silvia
Alfonso. the Cuban beauty, every wom-
an can be a beauty. NO, l use moth
ing TO make me beautiful, except the gifts
that nature bestows upon every woman.
no matter how plain she may be. |
merely try. by being kind, affectionate
and entertaining to my fellow creatures,
TO make myself beautiful. That is the
whole secret. There are thousands of
women in Cuba who are much more beau
tiful than l am. But they dishgure
themselves first by their surly and ugly
dispositions. second by becoming conceit-
ed and imagining that they are beautiful,
and third by using artificial means TO
improve. as they imagine, their looks.
ANY woman can become beautiful. no
matter what her features may he like,
IL She 50 desires You know the old say
ing that beauty is as beauty does That

Activity on the Gold Coast.

4 reawakening is taking place in the
mining industries of the gold coast of
Africa, after a slumbcr of years. That
there are ores of value in this district
there can be no doubt. on account of the
old operations and workings in the West
African fields. Mining and Metallurgy
of New York says thar the causes for the
failure OF the numerous companies
formed twenty years ago are many. but
anyone familiar with the region knows
that with very few exceptions all the
mines contain gold, some being really
rich. As soon as the proper methods of
management are determined by practical
experience we may look for good annual
production and renewed activity.

EUROPE LIKES THE PHONE.
Stockholm and Budapest the Best
Served Cities in the World.

Served Cities in the World.
1t would be difficult to say whether
Stockholm or Budapest possesses the
best telephone system, but it is quite Ger
tain that these two towns are the best
served in the world. Stockholm possesses
an installation of about 10000 tele
phones. In other words, nearly every
shop and private house possesses an in
strument, and the system is 50 extensive
that conversation is not only possible but
easy over radius of about fifty miles
around the city.
Budapest, in addition to being excel
lently served with ordinary telephones,
possesses unique system, the Telefen
Hirmondo, which practically performs
the function of newspaper. News is re
ceived at all hours of the day in the cen
trail office, and, after being edited and
condensed, is repeated over the wires to
some 1000 subscribers, VINO can listen
to it in their own sitting rooms at stated
intervals during the day. The system
has proved not only a public convenience
hut also a great commercial success

The Monument association, which
looks after the preservation of Bunker
Hill monument in Charlestown, some
time ago decided to erect a granite lodge
on the monument grounds to take the
place of the small wooden structure
which for forty-four years has served as
home for valuable ancient sntuary and
relics, the property of the association.
Within the near future it is expected
that the old lodge will be removed thirty
feet east of its present location in order
that work upon the excavation for the
handsome new building may be COM
menced. AT least six months will be
consumed in cutting the barge granite
and marble blocks used in the construc-
ton, and it is not expected that the new
lodge will be ready for occupancy and
dedication before June IL Of next year.
The estimated cost of the lodge is $35,.
600. The building will be of the Gre
clan type, with simple features of orna-
mentation. In it will be placed rare
trophies and mementOes now in the pres
ent lodge, and a large collection of addi-
tional treasures which. the association
has never brought over from the city
