Joe Mathews.
Metropolis

1t were as futile to attempt to gid
the sun, paint the lily or add perfume
to the rose, as to attempt to tell the
people of Marion county anything
about Joe Mathews that they do not
already know.
Mr. Mathews knows every man,
woman and child in the county and
all their belongings down to the
minutest description Of fractional
half acre of land.
Joe held the Office of assessor for
sixteen or eighteen years and had be-
come such an expert in all the various
details in land descriptions that his
friends were willing to offer rewards
for any error that could be detected in
his assess ment rolls.
His friends say that he must be put
back into office and promise TO work
strenuOusly to that end.

Harris Show Hare.

The Famous Nickel Plate Show ar
rived early this morning and have
pitched their tents at McGTsnn's
Park for today. They gave splendid
street parade this morning, which
was seen by large crowds all along the
line Of march. Despite being here
after holiday, the afternoon per-
fOrmance was well attended, aud not
one dissenting voice could be heard
from among the large number who
attended.
The show is given in one ring, so
that all can see all that takes place,
and is much more appreciated than
one OF the three ring kind. The ac-
rObats, gymnasts, aeriOlists and riders
were good. They give another per-
fOrmance tonight and those wanting
to see a first-class show should not
miss this one.-Lancsster, Pa New

After the Governor.

Now the Marion county democratic
executive committee is after our gov
ernOr with a sharp stick because he
persists in ignoring party usages and
custom in making appointments of
county officials. The former COVER
nOrs generally referred all such APP
pointments to the county executive
committee and then appointed the
party or parties recommended, but
Governor Jennings doesn't adhere TO
this rule or this part of the party
platform, and goes ahead appointing
whom he wishes without consulting
any one on the subject, except, per-
haps, the applicants. A number of
democrats have protested to this viO-
latiou of party rules, but it does no
good as the governor keeps on max
ing appointments. Here in Jackson
vile the county committee has been
almost completely ignored by the
governor with the result that many
good democrats avOw they will vote
for him no more for any POSITION

Nai-SimpIe Rules to Improve the. Hand.

dividuality in perfumes can be INDUCED
in this manner at a really trifling ex-
pense.
Wash the hands with the oil just as
you would with soap and water, but rub
it in well. See that the nails get their full
share, for where the skin is unduly dry
the nails are apt to be brittle, cracking
and breaking off at the most inconvenient
times and places.
Let the oil soak in for few minutes
and then pat again with the towel to re-
move the excess; and finish by rubbing
the hands through some powder. Oat-
meal or almond meal is good for this pur-
pose, although the ordinary talcum pow
der does pretty nearly as well.
Where the water is at all hard a little
oatmeal, the whole Irish or Scotch meal,
not the steam cooked oats, may be
dropped into the water; and this will
prove healing and soothing as well as
cleansing. Borax, too. will soften the
water; but this sometimes leaves the skin
little dry.
For hands, on the contrary, where the
skin is too oily and sheds its oil too
freely, borax in the water is almost a
specific. A little vinegar, too, dropped
in, not more than a Tablespoonful to a
aoodly. sized bowl of water, will have
good results; while the use of some one
or another Of the French toilet waters
Evening journal., 1904-11-16

those coarse kitchen soaps containing an
excess Of alkah should never be used on
the hands, no matter how soiled and how
stained they may become. The free al
kali in those soaps is depended upon to
cut out the dirt and grease from metals
and the like, and was never intended to
be used upon the delicate skin Of the
hand.
When the hands and especially the
finger tips are stained-no matter from
what cause-a cut lemon, or the re-
mains Of lemons that have been squeezed,
will usually remove the spot. If this
does not do then use a little pumice
stone-the luxuriously minded can find
these cut into fancy shapes, termed vel
vet pumice, and mounted in more or less
solid silver mountines convenient to
handle. A five cent piece from the
druggists. however, will be fully as eff
ficacious; for this is one of the toilet
articles that is not for show but for
use, real and everyday use.
The toilet table or washstand should
never be left without those two items,
the cut lemon and the pumice. The
lemon will not only remove unwelcome
stains but it likewise whitens and softens
the skin. and a little rub with the
pumice occasionally around the flesh at
the base Of the finger nails will prevent
many a painful hangnail.
