FIFTEEN CENTS A DAY.
nut Of This Munincent Income Mrs
Jansen Feeds Herself and Her
- Two Children.

Contrasting sharply with the high
living which seems to have become
necessity nowadays in this country is
the story Of woman who keeps her
self and two children on fare that costs
barely Is cents day.
The Jansens, for this is the name
of the family, have two ill-furnished
rooms in one of the fats belonging
to what is known as the Woolsey es-
tate, in Long Island City. They pay
no rent for their hovel of a home,
Mrs. Jansen says, because her hus-
band worked for several years as a
coachman for the Woolseys, and there

bringing forth exceedingly beautiful
ornaments for the arm in which the
combined art of the goldsmith and
jeweler is displayed. The jeweled
bracelet of the day is a veritable thing
of beauty, the old-fashioned type be-
ing modified to suit modern require
ments, without, however, detracting
from its olden charm and embellished
with gems in accordance with the de.
mand for elaborate ornamentation
characteristic of the age. The brace.
let here pictured is fine example OF
modern art in jewelry, the combina-
ton of gold links and turquoise and
diamond setting being very effective.
Rings are ever new, and yet as ar
cient as the Scriptures. It is only by
variation in the manner of arranging
the gems for which the golden circle:
serves as background that any touch
of novelty can be introduced. Jewell
ers are ingenious, however, and they
make the most of the opportunity for
variation with the most artistic and
successful results. OF the two rings
here illustrated, one shows three dia-
monds in a new and attractive setting.
while a single pearl is displayed to
unusual advantage in the second ring.
Both represent the latest ideas with
regard to rings.-Brooklyn Eagle.

THE FACE THAT SMILES.

Brother, you are gazing backward. toward
the scenes of your mistakes;
You are weeping Ger your errors till your
proud heart almost breaks. - r.
You're repenting and regretting, you are
signing, Oh, alas! .
And you're missing all the glories OF the
present as they pass #
Leave the grim and grewsome picture
look the other way awhile.
Fer the face that's toward the future 10
the face that wears smile.
You are lost in contemplation Of the blum
ders you have made;
You are signing, DER the countless times
your soul has been dismayed.
But the futures sun is shining on the H.
lures verdant trees,
And the futures birds are singing-you are
missing all of these.
Cease that useless gazing backward, look
the other way awhile,
For the faces toward the future are the
only ones that smile. e,-2,
When your back is toward the future then
:; the blazing lamp OF hope
Throws your shadow DER your landscape
and with blinded eyes you grope
For the blessings that had vanished with
j the times they strove to bless:
Face about and you'll discover all your
groupings fruitlessness.
You'll be dazzled by the glory Of the pros
pect for awhile. 's....
But with face turned to the future you will
learn to wear a smile. ',T'''

q Clear C0mplexiou.

Don't be afraid OF sunshine. Cur.r
tive powers are in the chemical rays
of the sun, and they rejuvenate.
Don't think of the complexion only
and fear tan and freckles; they can be
removed. The sun is one of the most
efficient of all surgical methods in the
treatment of morbid growths, as
warts, moles and all parasitical skin
diseases. " i
Don't use borax and rose water to
remove tan and freckles without put
ting on little cold cream afterward,
for borax makes the skin dry.
Don't use soap on the face oftener
than once day. Night is tho best
time for thorough cleansing.
Don't use cold water when giving
the face, cosmetic scrub. Warm wa
ter, followed by dash of cold water, il.
better.
Don't try to put cold cream on cold
skin, or the absorption will not be
Thorough h.
Don't despise the humble lemon.
With the juice of lemon and the
beaten white of an egg, milady, brush
in hand, may touch up her freclsles in
the seclusion of her boudoir, AID no
one be the wiser.
Don't forget that vinegar will erad-
icate yellow stains from the face.
Battle the bruise at once with vinegar
and discoloration will be prevented.
Don't have shiny nose and fore
head, because it is warm weather. Use
a little cologne or spirits of camphor
in the water when bathing the face.
Don't wash your face in cold water
the moment you reach a washstan if
you have been travelling. Remove
traces of dust and smoke with cold
cream, and wipe off with soft towel.
Don't be afraid of the flesh blush or
glove. Friction rouses the circc.ation
and restores tone and color to the skin.
Don't expect to cure an eruption on
the face by external applications only
A hot foot bath, containing washing
soda, will often cure this trouble.
Don't be afraid of using a little rice
powder on the face, neck and arms if
troubled with prickly heat.
Don't use alcohol on the face unless
the skin is oily.
Don't use tincture of benzoin on the
face unless the skin is dry. 1t is
detrimental to an oily one. This is an
instance of preparation excellent in
itself, but not suited to every COM

q plaintive air.
II buy soup beans, they can be
cooked in so many different ways,
though sometimes take notion to
have plain white beans. The children
are fond of onions, and they like them

five cents worth of beer for my din
ner; then the next day buy onions
instead of beans, which cost just the
same quart. This leaves me moth
ing for salt and pepper, so the only
way I can get these necessaries is to
subs titute oatmeal for the beans or
onions once in awhile. Oatmea is
cheaper than either, and goes long
way, though we get tired of it quicker.
1--WE drink water for breakfast and
supper, and whenteI have my mug of
beer for dinner I give the children
sip, but they don't seem to care much
for it. I wish the little ones might
have milk TO drink. instead; that al
ways makes people healthy, at least
people think it. does. My Ida and
Henry Bernard don't look thin and
