BEAUTY OF SKIN PURITY OF BLOOD Ancient and Modern Ideas on lhc5e Interesting
 Subjects.
UP-TO-DATE METHODS
For Purifying and Beautifying the Skin, Scalp, Hair
 and Hands.

Socrates called beauty a short-llved tyranny, Plato a privilege of nature, Theocritus, delightful prejudice, Theophrsstus silent cheat, Carncades a solitary kingdom, Homer @ glorious gift of nature, Ovid 6 favor of the gods. Aristotle affirmed that beauty was better than all the letters of rec ommendation in the world, and yet none of these distinguished authorities has left us even hint of how beauty is to be perpetuated, or the ravages Of age and disease dened. Time soon blends the lily and the rose into the pallor of age, disease dots the fair face with cutaneous disfgurationS and crimSons the Roman nose with insight ly f1ushes, moth, if not rust, corrupts the glory of eyes, teeth, and lips yet beautiful by defaclDg the complexion, and fills the sensitive soul with agony.
 If such be the unhappy condition of one afflicted with slight skin blemisheS, what must be the feelings of those in whom torturing humors have for years run riot, covering the skin with scales and sores and charging the blood with poisonous elements to be- come a part of the system until death1
 It is in the treatment Of torturing, disiguring humors and affections of the skin. scrip and blood, with loss Of hair. that the Cuticura remedies have achieved their greatest success. Orig. inal in composition, scientifically com pounded, absolutely pure, unchange- able in any climate, always ready, and agreeable to the most delicate and sen sitive, they present to young and old the most successful curstivcs of mod eTn times.

Associated PRESS TRIUMPH.

The triumph OF the Associated
Press over all other news gathering
agencies Is being illustrated finely in
connection with the war In the
Orient. The special correspondents
have been able to get nothing Of value
while reliable and accurate tidings
from the theater OF war are being
sent promptly BY the great news
gathering agency. Those who read
the Associated Press dispatches fur.
nished by The Optic and many hun
dreds Of other papers of the United
States may be sure Of receiving re.
liable information. Those who read
the papers that set great store upon
their special correspondents and de.
pend principally upon them for news,
wade through a vast amount OF ma
tcrial but at the end they know moth.
Ing more about the real situation than
when they began. The special war
correspondents have been kept away
from the front and they spend their
time sending out highly colored re-
ports founded on mere rumor Or i'm
sgination.
An excellent Illustration OF the
powers Of the Associated Press Is
furnished BY an article published re.
Gently By the New York Herald on
the occasion OF It's receiving the first
dispatch from a correspondent direct
from the seat Of war. The dispatch
was given a great scare head, but
no attempt was made 70 explain why
the public had heard the news via
the Associated Press at st. Peters.
burg, six whole days before the special
got through. The Herald says:
This dispatch, the first to be re.
ceived from q special newspaper cor
respondent direct from the seat OF
war On the Yalu, came by way OF
Seoul to which Ii was sen by run
ncr from the Yalu after the battle.
The Japanese control all the telegraph
wires In Korea and newspaper dis.
patches are refused, hence the neces.
sity for forwarding the dispatch 225
miles to the Korean capital, From
Seoul the dispatch reached the Herald
over the cables OF the. Commercial
Pacific company, having been sent
first over Korean land lines to Flu.
San and thence BY cable TO Nagasaki,
Woo Sung, Foo Chow, Hong Kong,
Manila, Guam, Honolulu and San
Francisco.
