1ExERciSE.-.ThE NECK

Beware the first deep curve of round- ness at the chin.
 It is only a step from the gentle swell ing to the baggy pouch of the confirmed double chin. and double chin Is disiiked for two reasons-first, because 1t is not so becoming as a single one; second, because, as a. rule it is a sign of advancing age.
 One remedy for double chin Is a strap made of band of linen. fastened on firm ly under the chin so that 1t may not sip straps across the back of the head. or the band is fastened or tied on top of the head. This chin strap is worn at night One reason for using the strap at night fs that the muscles are then relaxed. It is the ugly habit of dropping the jaw at the moment of going to sleep that de- stroys the contour of the lower part of the face and gives the first tendency to a double chin,
 B4fore binding on the strap. tap the flesh under the chin -abc ut fifty times. and then, for five minutes. gently knead the flesh between the thumb and finger and rub with the ball of the thumb. Then tap again and alternate this treatment for twenty minutes. Use only cold wa ter on the chin and throat and dash it up with the hands. Be careful not to use cold cream on the chin; rub in little tincture of benzoin once week. or little rose-scented alcohol.
 
 as described. is to pour cold water on thespalnas of the hands. and. with one on eitker side of tfeehinJ rub up and around using some pressure. Let the movement be upward. .- -, ....... .-...
 An athletic for reducing a double chin and preventing the throat from be- coming baggy and fisbby is taken as fol- lows:
 Stand before the mirror and attempt to draw out and down the corners of the mouth. It will probably take some time to accomplish this. When you are able to get control of the muscles you will see the cuticle of the entire front of the neck move upward. The muscle is attached to the cuticle of the chin and around nearly the whole length of the lower jaw; It's lower Insertions ayssaktaehed t othe cuti- clesof the chest, and 3when in contraction it pulls the corners of the mouth down. ward and the cuticle of the chest up- ward. Repeat this exerise many times.
 If the beauty seeker is faithful in car rying out these directions. Nthe outward and visible results will be retention of youthful contours-that Is. If the treat ment is not delayed too late. An ounce of prevention. let beauty remember, is worth a pound of cure any day
 A thin and wrinkled neck is often the accompaniment of a double chin. and for the same reason-that with age the throat loses it's beauty. unless It's care is taken in band in time s@s

her manners were by no means polished, she made people believe that she was a princess. and the possessor of great wealth. She entertained all that was most brilliant in social Paris. she promoted charitable bazars, she lived in splendid style. she arranged wealthy marriages. and she gathered round her a number of noble eccleslastics.
 Yet she was nothing else than a clever swindler. as was conclusively shown af- ter a fraud concerning an arranged mar riage had been brought to light. 1ets
 Finally there was the case of the sham Countess Tabriany. the daughter of a woodman, who duped the whole of the society of Vienna and lived upon them for many years, until she was unmasked in 1898.

 Carrie Filch and Gladys-Hair has certain length of life. When the end of that times comes it falls out, and if the scalp is in good condition new hair comes in its place. The scalp should be brushed with softer brush than. is used for brushing the hair. Brushing the scalp stimulates the circulation. The fingers can be used for the same purpose. Place one hand on the brow the other on the back of the head. press the fingers well into the scalp and with a quick movement bring the hands toward each other. Much brushing of the hair makes 1t pliable Don't use a brush unless 1t is clean. A hair brush should be washed at least every other day. Care spent upon the hair is well repaid. for good looks de- pend almost more upon the appearance of the hair than upon fair complexion. sparkling eyes. rosebud mouth or pear ly teeth; and all these good points are set off to better advantage by abundant. beautiful and glossy hair.

More From Niagam.

1t has been decided to build a large
power plant. on the Canadian side of
Niagara Falls, which when completed
will enable the operators to furnish
200, 600 horse power. A few years ago
the idea of using Niagara's power
would have seemed ridiculous, but the
progress of invention during the past
century has now made it possible.
There has also been wonderful pro-
gress made in medicine during that
time, the most noticeable being the
introduction Of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters about fifty years ago. This
family medicine is for everybody, but
more especially for those who are weak
and sickly. 1t will strengthen the
stomach and nerves and cur indiges-

ton and malaria, fever and ague. Try
1t and see for yourself.

one-half Of a loaf are better than no
loaf at all. I'D
II is understood that Mr.. Stafford
has recommended that the territory
make the compromise referred to
above and that Solicitor General Bart
lett has the matter under considera-
ton.
Here is a case in point. Had the
Thirty-fourth legislative assembly en-
acted the law establishing the office
of a territorial travelling auditor as
passed by the last assembly, there
exists no doubt that under its pro-
visions Abran Abeyta would not have
been able to do as he did. These ex-
~tensive ~defalcations could not have
occurred under the system now estab-
lished. The travelling auditor would
have found out very early what was
going on and a check and stop would
have Immediately been put to Abey-
ta's use OF public funds for his own
benefit and for private purposes.
Here is also another lesson. 1t Is
gerry unsafe to put a political boss into
an office which has the handling and
care-taking Of public funds. This pa
per Is informed and it believes. this
information t be correct, that a
goodly part of the public funds In the
hands of Abeyta went for political
purposes. He had been collector and
treasurer of Socorro county for years
and did not wish to give up the sweets
OF the office. 1t takes money In So
zorro county as well as in some other
counties of this territory for a man
to maintain himself az a political boss.
When public funds aye entrusted
to bosses and when there exists a lax
method and inefficient supervision In
financial matters and OF h office
held by such bosses, the temptation
to take public money and use for one
self becomes very great and even
strong il en- submit to it very Q11en.
Abeyta did desperate and hard work
for his reelection last November and
had it not been for the patriotism, eft.
forts and energy of a few public spirit.
ed and honest citizens in SOcOrro
county, he would no doubt have made
good the shortage Of public funds In
Socorro county now existing. This y
probably true.
Be that as 1t may, the accounting
system contemplated by the provis
ions of the law establishing the office
of territorial travelling auditor and
which will be prescribed and enforc
ed by that oficiag will reduce the
chances for the occurrence OF cases
like the one of Abeyta to a minimum
and will prove a great protection te
the territorial and county treasur
ers.
The New Mexican, which macs ne
bones about showing up the bad laws
and ubiquitous actions Of the last as
sembly, is always ready ON the Othel
hand to give that body u and JUS
credit for any and all beneficial ant
wise legislation enacted by it and tn
travelling auditors law In the opinion
Of this paper and with an auditor lkt
Mr.. Stafford to enforce it. will prove
~far-reaching and wise legislation.
In addition, this paper desires tt
state as a matter of justice, that thu
urgent recommendations for the en-
actment of this law made by Qovernol
Otero to the 33d, 34th and 35th legis
lative assemblies and his insistanct
that il must be had, were a grea
factor In it's passage.

LESSONS TAUGHT BY DEEALCA.
TlONS IN SOCORRO COUNTY.

(From the New Mexican.)
From official sources it is learned
that Abran Abeyta, former collector
of taxes and treasurer of Socorro
county is short in his accounts and
indebted to the territorial treasury
in the neighbOrhoOd of $4,000 and to
the county in the sum of $25, 900. Trav-
cling Auditor Charles v. Stafford has
just made an examination of the col
iector's and t~reasurer's books of the
county of Socorro, and from the rec
ords available he is of the opinion
that the sums above stated are cor
rect. Some Office records are missing
and IL Is therefore impossible to give
the amounts exactly. 1t seems that
the stubs of tax receipts issued have
disappeared and that other papers and
books which might shed light upon the
peculiar financial transactions of the
ex-cOllector and treasurer are also not
to be found. 1t Is understood that the
bondsmen of Abeyta are willing to
make a settlement with the territory
for the sun of about $500 and with
the county for the sun of SIS, 900. In
view of the fact hat for years past
il has been very difficult to collect
public monies on bonds and from
bondsmen of d~efaulting officials and
taking also into consideration the fact
that important papers which could be
used to fix the ~defalcations of the
ex-collector and treasurer cannot be
found. it would seem to be the course
of prudence and wisdom that the set.

may be stated that there exists a

Las Vegans can buy Albuquerque and
then have enough left over to take
