LATEST CHICAGO FAD.
1T Is Called the Dew Bath and Its De-
voices Claim That 1t Improves
the Complexion.

Chicago has a new fad which for
genuine novelty and originality seems
likely to stand unrivaled in a little
class of its own for some time to come.
In years gone by Chicago has imported
most of its really successful fads from
the east and across the Atlantic, but
this one grew and blossomed on ma
tive Illinois soil and as soon as society
gives ir vogue it is sure to leap into in
Simultaneous popularity, for society
| approval is all that is necessary to the
success of fad.
This absolutely new thing in fads is
the morning dew bath for the com
pleXion and it threatens to outclass
even the beauty doctors themselves.
Some morning, if you happen to be up
in time to commune with the sun as il
slips up across the lake, and, looking
over your back fence you behold a WON
an, young or old, kneeling in the center
of grass plot with her face in close
proximity to the earth, don't call the
police. This is the fad. AS a COM
pleXion producer it is said to surpass
anything in the squeeze line yet intro
duced, and the best thing about the new
complexion producer is that it is cas-
lily within the reach of every woman,
who can find grass plot large enough
to envelop her face.
These morning dew baths for the COM
pleXion were something of a secret I'M
til recently. The idea was such cap
The Morris County chronicle. [volume] (Morristown, N.J.) 1877-1915, 1902-07-25

ital and original one that those who
made the unique discovery that green
grass, freshened by morning dew, con-
tains the skin invigorating ingredients
for which the beauty doctors charge
money, held their tongue with consid-
cradle persistency. But the truth
leaked out down in Elgin, Ill. Miss
Evangeline Brusk, young woman re-
siding in that place, has enjoyed some
local fame on account of the beauty
of her complexion. Indeed, she has
been the envy of her friends on account
of this supposedly rich gift of nature.
The expose, however, came one morn
ing not long ago, when neighbor arose
early to catch train out of Elgin. He
lives next door to the Brusk home, and
as he was passing down thelback steps
he was considerably surprised to see
the young woman crouching on the
lawn and gesticulating in unseemly
| fashion as though saluting the sun.
| She would run her hands across the
grass, and then bury her face in them
| nd go through all the motions of wash
| ing. 1t was a new one on the Elgin
nan, because he wasn't up in dew baths.
His curiosity was aroused to the point
of investigation, so he crossed the lawn
noiselessly and, walking up behind the
intently occupied young woman, he
surprised her with question.
Such interruption was objectionable.
Without replying, the young woman
jumped to her feet and fed to the
house. But this was enough. for it
was in reality the beginning of this new
beauty fad which seems likely to outdo
anything in the way of novelty for
women's faces that ever has been i'm
ported even from Paris, New York or
London.
There really is nothing to the dew
complexion bath but dew and grass.
yet in addition to it's complexion-giv-
ing properties the early morning con-
tact with nature is said to be exhiIar-
ating. In the first place, to derive the
full benefits a young woman must be
up and out before the world is astir.
as dew will not wait for her to finish
morning nap. This in itself is one
step in the direction of q good com
plexion and when Il Clip in the cool,
refres7 ing grass is taken into consid-
Grafton along with this first natural
consequence, it appears that there is
more to the dew bath than is evident
But it isn't big hit with the beauty
doctors and complexion specialists.
Physicians, however, being less direct
" interested in the abstract question
of complexion, are non-committal.
''T wouldn't like to commit myself
for fear of mourning the ill-wiIl of the
women" said one doctor. eff some
young woman has found that a dew
bath in the early morning air improved
her complexion she ought to know
what she is talking about At least I
wouldn't care to contradict her with
out first having given myself over to
an investigation. Grass naturally alb
serbs, through its roots, many of the
natural properties of the earth. And,
as every one knows, dew falls on grass.
so it may be that there is something
beneficial in this combination. Who
| knows? /. for one, wouldn't like to
say Chicago Tribune.

started In the Seventy first regiment

spread to the Park avenue hotel, whers
eighteen persons were killed and many
injured. 1t was the worst hotel fire
since the Windsor was destroyed, TIT
fire was first seen at about 1870 in; the
morning. in the armory, and in a re.
markably short time that building wa
afame from end to end. The firemeL
made their way as best they coulc
through the streets, deep with slush
AMI did all possible to 'confine the fire
to the armory; but after they had beer
at work nearly an hour the discovery
was made hat the hotel was crowded
with guests. About the time the hote.
was found to be on fire the lights went
out and the corridors were filled witt
smoke. The guests, unable to find then
way through the darkened hallway
jumped from windows or ran directly
into the fame-swept portions of the
building. 1t is this fact that accounts
for the large loss of life, although the
hotel was not destroyed. =.
