LOOKS LIKE PILES

The outlook Tor the election or oSul Piles to the United States senate in the state of Washington begins to look bet ter. Itistrue, he has begun his cam paign, iu the same spectacular manner that characterized the trui,less fight begun by Harold Preston year and a half ago, and as was the case with Mr Preston, the Seattle Times, demo cratic paper, was selected as the vehi- ele in which to make Mir. Piles an nouncemeut. This was probably be- cause John L.. Wilson, the owner ot the Post Intelligenccr, the only republican daily paper in Seattle, Is candidate for the office himself
 However, here the parallel between the candidacy Of Mr. Piles and thlt Of Mir. Preston ceases Mir. Preston was the iavorite Of the farmers Of Eastern Washington and the others who tayor a railroad commission. Mir. Piles Is a railroad candidate. and corporation man. An effort was made last winter, at a time when the sena. r.al battle was up in the air. Co unite those who wanted a Seattle man, no matter what his position on 'he railroad question and the railroad forces on Mir. Piles, and it probab y would have succeeded had it not lccn that ihc railroad ma chine was under such great obligations Co Levi Aokeny that it could not with draw from his support with anything approaching honor Co its members.
 Many things have occurred Of late to indicate Che truth of the story that the Ankeny railroad comb nc had promised the King county senators. who betrayed the candidacy Of Mr. PrcS,oa st win ter. that they WorN dc'tvc. to them the seat now held hy Senator Foster at the next session, provided they would offer man more friendly to corpora tions than was Mr Preston. Accord ing to the story, as told in whispers by some of thc wise ones last winter, sam Piles was the man the combine had in view. The probabilities arc that the candidacy of Ed Hamilton Is for the purpose Of making good such a eompac. Ed Hamilton was the legis- latiye leader Of the machine which elected Senator Apkeny last year, and it was his word that sealed all pledges that were made for Aukeny votes. To those who are acquainted with his DO litlcal methods, it seems incredible that Ed Hamilton would seriously expect to become United States senator himself 10 Is more probable that he could figure 10 other way of handling the Pierce county votes so as Co place them where he wants to at the right time Hc Is probably playing stalking horse for Sam Piles. It such shall prove Co be the case, it win mean that Ed Ham, ilton will be even a greater power in the politics oi the state of Washington in the future than he has been in the past, as he is by DO means a cheap man. He understands what power is and be knows how t6 Use it.
 Sam Piles, withal, is one of the ablest men in his state. He is attorney for the Pacific Coast Company and other corporations, and is, therefore, close to the Jim Hill interests. He is a brilliant orator, shrewd lawyer and a skillful poli;ician.

vanced as regards all matters sartorial, are neglectful of that personal care of skin, hair and hands, which gives that touch of distinction, to their "chlc" sis ters of the north? Why during these days of endless card parties are their nails not brought to that perfection of beauty which only the care of a first class manicure can bestow?
 Not since the days of the French empire or the reign of the beautiful Marie Antoinette has so much attention been paid to personal adornment as to- day, and the wise woman will see to it that her own fairness is equal to the daintiness of her apparel The price of beauty is eternal vigilance" Scientific massage, sldllfully given, the proper use of a good, pure skin food will soon ban ish every trace of damage done by these gusty dusty days, and my lady breathes a soft prayer to her tutelar saint be- cause the gods were good to the beauti- full Greeks of old, and taught them the rightful use of oils and spices and in- gredients for the adornment of the forms and faces of the 'fairest of the sons of man."

Strenuous Weather
 An Enemy to Beauty.

There is no subject in the world which interests both men and women so entire ly as that of feminine beauty. But to the fair sex during these past few try ing weeks of wind and dust the subject becomes one of vital importance and deep study.
 NO woman who has any regard for her personal appearance will neglect her beauty doctor during this strenuous weather; and Birmingham is to be con- gratulated that she has at last an estab- lishment thoroughly up-to-date, where every woman may have the lines of care smoothed from her tired brow; where her hair may receive just that care necessary to give the gloss, which always distin- guishes the tresses of a thoroughly groom ed woman.
