When n Woman Uses Powder,
Most women use powder OH their
faces nowadays and it Is well that they
know the best way. 1t Is hardly worth
while to go into the matter of the pos
sible injury that powder may do the
skin. Much Is said for and against It.
Its advocates claim that it Is better for
the pores of the skin to be filled with
clean white powder than with the dust
of the streets.
The best method of applying powder
Is by means OF absorbent cotton. The
cotton should be dipped in the powder
and busted over the face. covering ev-
cry part. Then it should be rubbed
in thoroughly with the hand. Then the
face should he wiped off lightly with
soft cloth. Powder should never be
permitted to remain on the face over
night. 1t should be washed off and
the skin massaged with cold cream. By
this method it Is claimed that the skin
Is not Injured. Pure powder Is the
first requisite. Many of the expensive
powders are harmful. A pure vegeta.
BILE powder should be sought, or even
cornstarch or rice powder They canno,

True sympathy with Children.

True Sy patny WITH ShlluTSh'
There are many conscientious fathers
and mothers who make themselves and
their children miserable by taking
youthful folbles too seriously. 1t Is an
Innate propensity of child possessed
of average good health and spirit to
make older people laugh with him; not
ut him, but at the things that seem
amusing to his own sense. And the
mother who has the blithe and ready
humor to enter into his fun becomes
his most fascinating companion. He
needs her rebukes and bends to her
correction without Ill feeling, where
sternness would arouse his pride and
ire, for he is assured that she is ready
to share all his innocent FRANKS, and
that her disapproval has no foundation
In Impotence or injustice. And when
the day arrives that childish things
are put away" and the grown men and
women look backward to their early
home, with what throb of pleasure
they say, when things happen. Moth

quickest sense of humor Of any woman

How Women Should Stand.

Women who have formed the habit
Of standing In bent back -burdened at
titude e&aggerate this bad position of
the body when they walk-especally
If there Is u sense of hurry In the

these lines call up the mental picture
Of some neighbor hurrying in a sort
Of dog-trot gait, about her work with

from the upright, the head and Shout.
ders being quite in advance of the rest
of the body, as If the legs could not,
or would not go fast enough for the
impatient brain and body? This Is
the haste that makes waste" Such
position means straining and enfee-
bling the poor back, and it means in
reference with breathing, circulation
and digestion. 1t Is counting heaviness
of movement heaviness of spirit, and
oldness of body 1t announces that
the woman Is not master Of her work:
rather her work masters and drives
her. Now, we all must acknowledge
that this is wrong.
A woman with much depending upon
her should, first of all. be able wisely
to direct her body in her work, and,
second, not to let her work own her,
however much it may be in quantity.
When one is well-polsed, free and buoy
ant in bodily movement, one can walk
rapidly, or even run, while doing ones
work and suffer none of the exhaust

spirit Of hurry. An Arab proverb well
puts 1t that Hurry Is the devil Shall

The committee chosen consists Of Charles Gay, John Ashton, Joseph Belasco, Will liam Gay and Philip Daley. The sub stance of the communication from MT. McKerness follows:
 This nomination I accepted, but not on personal grounds. I accepted it in order that voters who desire to uphold the cause of labor, might on election day. while voting their respective party tickets, have an opportunity to paste my name over the regular republican and democratic nominees for sheriff Of this county.
 AS I have entered the canvass at your call, and am, in an especial sense' your candidate and without the politi- cal experience of professional office seekers, I hereby request that you ap- point a committee representing the | New Haven Economic league to aid me I in my canvass. Inasmuch as l have taken the nomination after another, who had accepted it. declined. l feel it incumbent for my own honor and reputation, no less than that of the 1 league. that I make as vigorous a can vass as the short time now permits, and I assure you that if labor does not vote for me on election day 1t Will not be because of my withdrawal from the race"
 The league sent copies of the follow ing letter to the gubernatorial candi- dates, the letter being signed by the president and secretary of the league: "As you are now a candidate before the voters of Connecticut for the office of governor, and as the Trades Council of New Haven representing the labor unions with many other citizens, have

 of the members of the Economic league

 posed this contract, and the league has
 by resolution adopted early in the cam

papers, the army offers favorite sub ject for attack.
 50 it often happens that some ami able people really get little afraid Of the army and have some idea that it may be used some time or other against our liberties
 'sThe army never has been, and, am sure. it never will be or can be men ace to anybody save Americas foes, or aught but a source of pride to every good and farsighted American.
 When an emergency like that caus- ed by the Spanish war arises, the sec retary of war becoms the most import ant officer in the cabinet. Altogether, there are few harder tasks than that of filling well and ably 1 the office of president of the United States. But if the man at the close Of his term is able to feel that he has done his duty well, he has the satisfac- ton of feeling that he has performed one of the great world tasks and that the mere performance is in itself the greatest of all possible rewards"
