TO PREVENT WRINKLES.

Wrinkles are indeed woman's night.
mare, and any remedy or cure for them
Is always hailed with delight. II IL,
however, far easier 10 prevent than 10
cure these tclltale lines.
Among the numberess causes may
be mentioned worry. fretfulness, eXhi-
bitions Of temper and exposures TO ex-
ccssive heat and cold.
Wrinkles have been defined as "fur-
rows caused by the skins having be-
come too loose and large for the organ
II has TO cover" Dry skin also often
produces these burrows.
The mental causes Of this dread af-
fectlon are more numerous and more
potent than physical causes.
When the spirits are low the skin OF
the face follows suit and falls away,
leaving gaps and cavities. Hence
cheerfulness and a happy, contented
mind are more powerful to prevent
them than any number Of physical rem.

FIXED RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN MONEYS OF GOLD
STANDARD AND SILVER-USlNG
COUNTRIES.
Conference Between President, Sec
rotary of the Treasury and Sub
Committee of House Coinage Com
mittee Concerning Means Of Put-
ting Into Effect the Measure.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Sccretary
Shaw. Robert b. Armstrong, who will
qualify o o as an assistant secretary
of the treasury, and a subcommittee
of the House Coinage committee, con
~sisting of Representatives Southland,
SOuthell and C~oChTanc. had Il confer
ence with President Roosevelt concern
ing the means Of putting into cltec;
the proposition transmitted by the
president of congress on January 29tn
in a special message.
President RoOsevelt's message con
veyed to congress a report from SeCre-
tary Hay, with accompanying notes
and memoranda from the Mexico em-
bassador and the Chinese Charge
d'Affaires.
Mexico and China are seeking the
cooperation of this government in
such measures as will tend to restore
and maintain a fixed relationship be-
tween the moneys OF the gold standard
countries and the silver-using coun-
tries.
1t is not asked that the United States
codify is monetary system, and it is
| stated distinctly that there is no move
ment in contemplation for the restora-
ton of international bimetallism. The
particular desire is that a measure be
adopted hat will prevent the great
fluctuations in exchange which now
occur in trade with sil~ver-using oun
tries.
Citizens of the United States now
have investments in Mexico alone ag-
gregating more thar half a billion dol
lars. The earnings of these enterprises
have suffered a serious fall in gold
value with every fall in the value of
Mexican money. This fact. it is sug-
gested, brings home to this country the
desirability of adopting some means to
insure the stability of exchange.
After considering the subject care
| fully, it was the opinion of the parties
to the conference that it would be
wise for congress to confer with the
president and appoint three commits
| sioners of the United States to partici-
pate in any official conference on the
question of the stability of exchange
that might be arranged. 1t is expected
that another effort will be made at
the present session to leave that au'
thority to the president.

A BOYS AWFUL DEED
KILLS HIS FATHER, WOUNDS HIS
MOTHER AND SISTER AND
COMMITS SUICIDE.
After Shooting His Parents He Went
to House of Neighbor and Said
Robbers Had Attacked His Home
-Resents Inqui%sitiveness of Far
mer and Then Kills Himself.

Frankfort, Ind, Feb. 24.-Earl
Woods, the 17-year-old-son Of a farm
er living seven miles west of this city,
Tuesday afternoon killed his father,
shot and probably fatally wounded his
mother and sister and then committed
suicide.
After the shooting the young nan
went to the home of a neighbor and
said robbers had entered the Woods
home and killed his father, mother and
sister and that he escaped after a run
ming battle with the desperadoes. He
was apparently greatly excited and
said he a organizing a posse to pur-
sue his fathers slayers. The boy con-
tinued OF his way toward this city and
stopping at the next house, told the
same story.
After he was questioned concerning
the shooting he became confused and
resented the inq~uisitiveness of the
farmer to whom he had told the story.
Young Woods said he had no time for
further words, as he had to run down
the robbers, and started toward the
barn yard at the farmers home. After
he disappeared a shot was heard and
the youthful murderer was found dying
with a bullet through his breast.

CHRISTOPHER PLAGUE
MAY VISIT WYOMING.

There is considerable apprehension
among the ranchmen north and east
OF Gillette as the result Of the issu-
ance by the department Of agriculture
of a bulletin warning residents of that
section against a possible plague of
grasshoppers this season. Grass hop
pers appeared in large numbers along
the Belle Fourche last summer, and it
is feared they may appear in multiplied
numbers during the coming summer.
The tongue disease which recently
caused the death of a large number of
cattle along the Belle Fourche is disap-
pearing. For a time it was feared that
the foot and mouth disease that pre-
vailed in New England had attacked
the cattle of that section, but this fear
is now allayed.
