The pansy has, from its advent IN
the floral kingdom, been a fayorite
with flower lovers on account Of its
rich colorlng and for its facelike blos-

the pansy by the most fastidious was
that Il was odorless. but now THAT the
fragrance Of the sweet violet Las been
added TO its many good qualities Il bids
to be more OF a general fayorte than

"All the hand / had in creating the

A EORD on COMFORT
TO the DISTRESSED.

Fortunately for those suffering with
Rheumatism in ali its various forms, in
Guiding Sore Joints, Sore Muscles, and
sore Feet, a remedy has been discovered
by modern science which in every instance
effects a speedy and positive cure This
new remedy is founded on scientific prin-
ciples which are acknowledged by the
medical world as the only correct treat
meut for Rheumatic or Neuralgic troubles.
Medicines taken internally rarely ever eff
feet a cure without upsetting the stomach.
AS arule, they iniure the digestive organs,
shatter the nerves, and in many instances
the patient contracts a drug habit which
leads eventually to decline Of the physi-
cal aud mental forces.
Paracamph is the new remedy and it is
a departure from the Anticipated methods.
Paraoainph enters into The system through
the natural channels, namely, the pores
Of the skin. When applied it opens the
pores and allows the healing, soothingo oils
Is penetrate tile sore, inhamed mebranes
and muscles, removes the congestion and
draws ont the fever and inflammation, by
inducing sweating. This Is the only treat
ment that can beindorsed by science, and
is guaranteed to cure even the most obsti-
nate cases Of Rheumatic Swelings if used
as directed. Paraearaph can be procured
at drug stores in rs cent, and 50 cent, and

THE PROFILE
AND THE NOSE

1.-THE time to alter the shape of your
nose is in the cradle remarked wo-
man who makes a study of faces and
| their profiles You can look over a
whole audience and hardly see a single
pretty side face. Even when the side
fact is pretty, the effect is apt to be
spoiled by a front view.
THE nose that is graceful looked at
from side sitting may become ugly
and unshapely when looked at from in
front often it is actually one sided.
"A crooked nose is caused by bury
| ing the face in the pillow. As the
twig is bent the tree is inclined, and
the woman who begins as little girl
to sleep with her nose buried will grow
up with a pug nose or worse.
There is a fashion now for the nose
that turns up saucily. But the women
whose noses do not turn UP are earn
estly advised to let we'll enough alor-e.
There is a great difference between tle
nose that is naturally and saucily tip
tilted and the nose that is tortured UNI
til it turns up.
"If the nose were taken in childhood
and gently trained there would be no
such thing as ugly noses. The nose is
formed of a soft cartilage which in
childhood can be bent this way or that.
THE great ugly hump which In time
becomes a too prominent Roman nose
could be prevented If treated in time.
Even in old age it can be persuaded TO
be a little less aggressive if the hump
be ma aged daily and gently kneaded
with the finger tips to call it down from
it's proud and prominent position.
1.-THE great trouble with the nose is
its complexion. There are few noses
that look IS they ought to look. Near
Iy all too highly colored.
THE great cause of this is poor
blood The evil can be remedied in
three or four ways. all of which should
be worked at the same time
First of all. loosen the clothing and
wear loose shoes. Tight collars and
tight shoes will injure the circulation
and make the nose very red.
Then rigid diet must be observed
Unless the woman eats the right kind
of food, and plenty of it, she will con-
tinue to blush at the tip of her nose.
.'Sha must not eat meat. The nearer
she comes TO a vegetarian diet, without
actually embracing it, the better or
she Will be, speaking from standpoint
of her complexion
The vegetarian complexion is
thing not to be forgotten by those who
have observed it. If you doubt that
there is such a thing. you can reassure
yourself by attending vegetarian
banquet The women may be ever so
plain. but they are glorified by clear
and even brilliant mplexion.
1.-The things for woman whose com
plexion is not above reproach are
cooked vegetables, raw and cooked sal
ads. and stewed fruits The cooked
salads are those that are made of vege-
tables and the Russian salads. which
are composed of shielded beets. cold
pota toes. string beans and peas. all
beautifully dressed with mayonaise,
dish fit for the Car.

...'......'...
!: Yes: This is Bishop Potter's Gin
mill. Come In. You Are
All Welcome.

The barkeep had reason to suspect
that the change was made by one of
the aggrieved saloonkeepers from the
Bowery, because over in that thor
oughfare, unblessed and unsanctified
as they are. their trade has fallen off.
Many of their oldest patrons have
deserted them for the tavern where
they may read the improving Htera-
ture that the Great Oak had put on
the tables But the dispensers of
liquids bear their sorrow calmly and
content themselves with this bit Of
philosophy, voiced by a publican near
Houston street:
"There's room enough in this bust
ness for all. and as soon as the bloom
in novelty wears off the joint. why,
it VIII be just like all the rest of the
ginmills. and we'll get back whatever
trade we've lost
Certain it is that the tavern did not
make very noticeable hit with folks
in general until Bishop Potter jour
neyed down from Cooperstown on
Tuesday to give his Episcopal approval
to the Subway The place had run
along for a couple of weeks and had
just about paid expenses. But there
was an air of cheerfulness withal, that
was partially accounted for one day
when one of the barkeeps remarked
in a confidential way to customer.
Were going to have Bishop Potter
down here Tuesday to dedicate this
place as poor mans club. Then you'll.
see change"
Quit your joshing," said the Gus
toner.
But the barkeep knew what he was
