EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
Well | thought had tried your pa
tiepce long enough so | will send you a
dollar to pay my subscription for another
year. We are having some bad weather
here, high water aud cyclones. The
wheat is ready to cut, but it is so wet they
cannot get in the fields with their ma.
chimes to cut it. Crops look fine here
Small fruit is getting ripe, auch as ber-
rles, cherries, peaches etc. This country
is taking on boom in the way of new
railroads and land transferes. Town lots
have doubled IN price in the last thirty
days. There are speculations here by
the wholesale from the east, several par
ties from Warren, Pa. This place has
got to be quite an oil field. The Cherok ee
Oil Co. has about 400 barrels production
per day. The Standard is putting in a
pipeline from here to Kansas City, where
they are building a refinery. They are
putting up 30, 900 barrel tank here now,
having lour 3,OOO-bOl tanks here already,
About all the talk you hear in this sec
ton is oil and rail roads and Parker for
President. Politics runs high here such
at they are. The people think there is
no party but the Democratic party, and
no mah fit to run the government but
Parker. The most of the soreheads have
gone to Memphis, Tenn, to a confederate
reunion. and 1 expect Parker will be
our President when they get back lin

judging from the plans arranged by Mrs
P1att this fall, some of which are nearing
completion. While others are as yet barely
under way and will not be completed until
the Senator and his wife return from Wash
ington at the close Of the winter season.
Mrs. Platt has already won in the village
the reputation Of being a splendid house.
keeper. That comes in part from the
fact that she does her own marketing and
does 1t in a way that provokes the admira-
ton OF the village shopkeepers. Mrs.
Plat shops usually early in the day, in
fact long before most fashionable folk are
breakfasting.
Breakfast in the Platt household is served
at 1880 A. NJ. After breakfast Mrs. Plat
drives the Senator to the station, a distance
OF about one and a quarter miles from
Tioga Lodge. 1t has become a common
sight for the villagers to see the white
haired Senator and Mrs. Plat driving
briskly along toward the Erie train. Some
times the coachman accompanies them,
but Mrs. Platt invariably handles the reins.

pexions.
Blue eyed girls, and hazel eyed girls
even the girl with violet eyes who should
never go near brown, all want tanned faces
"a dark even tan from hair to collar with a
splash Of red that looks as though it had
been put on under the brown.
Its all nonsense to suppose that out
door girls rush back to New York in the
fall to be bleached. l have far more
applications this fall for tan oil to make
girls who have been in town all summer
look brown than l have for face bleach.
Why, l know girls who went away this
last summer solely to get tanned. They
really couldn't afford to go, and they gave
up fur coats and things just to look brown
in the fall, because it was the only way
to be smart"
But IL you're an outdoor girl, how about
getting weatherbeaten through playing
golf in the stiff fall winds, and what OF the
yachting girl who acquires a complexion

young woman with a humiliating pallor.
How can a girl stay out OF doors and get
red and brown without having by the
winter solstice a complexion that looks
not unlike the new brown pressed pigskin
portfolos?"
The man who was questioned smiled with
that fine air Of superiority which in skin

out upon the mountain scenery toward
the south and east. The colors in this
room are OF a maroon tint, but softened
and mellowed.
The next room. or rather a continuation
OF the big hall is in dark, rich blue,
softened by an intermingling OF buff color.
The dining room is the only room with
partitions. 1t has dark wood for doors
and wainscoting, which reaches almost to
the ceiling. On a shelf running all around
the room are ranged curious and pretty
jugs, plates, mugs, de-, forming an at
tractive whole. The windows here look

It is rather difficult to describe Mrs.
Platt accurately, 40 much depends upon
expression. upon the quick lighting up OF
face and eyes, upon the youthful grace
of movement and action. She Is perhaps
about feet or inches In height. of build
not too slim, with brown hair. dressed
loosely and becomingly. around a rather
oval face. All the rest can best be summed
up as eyes and energy and SMILE"
As to the eyes, 1t needs no second glance
to admire their clear brightness, merri-
ment and sympathy. OF the energy, one
is convinced by the quick, light tread and
alertness Of manner.
Il have always kept house. Mrs. Plat
said to visitor. 1T Is what like to do.
And the country-it is beautiful. When
we look out over the mountains and valleys
it is easy to imagine ourselves several hun

about fifty miles. But why should any one

acquired the deepest sort Of coat Of tan
last summer without burning at all. She
was out in the sea winds and sun day after
day without getting even blister. She
Just grew browner and browner and rosy
on the cheeks instead Of the nose, and her
complexion from being slightly spotted
grew perfect.
Indeed there is nothing so good for
blotched skin as sunburn, provided blisters
are warded off and proper treatment is
given. And the course pursued by my
patient would serve as an excellent model
for any girl going in lot for fall outdoor
life.
First she prepared her skin to meet
wind and sun triumphantly. Always be-
fore going out for a long walk, sail or q
number of hours OF golfng she would mas
sage her face lightly with the purest cream,
say about three minutes, then pat the skin
dry with a soft bit OF old linen, and powder
with the purest sort Of poudre de riz.
This not only prevents the sun from
enlarging the pores, but 1t keeps dust and
germs from sitting into the skin when the

hour. Then came the slightest wash OF
cream and busting Of powder.
If the skin is very oily naturally and 1t is
impossible TO start out with cream mask,
then cream must be used Immediately
on returning home. It should be patted
on without rubbing or massage and left
on fully half an hour.
Another important thing Is to avoid
putting water on the face just before or
just after going out. Water robs the skin
OF its natural oil and leaves 1t much more
susceptible to any action OF wind or sun.
sThe best time to use water Is night
and morning. Just before going to bed
the face should be thoroughly washed
in suds 81 lukewarm water and pure
olive oil soap, using a crash washcloth.
After drying with crash towel there should
always follow cream massage Of three or
four minutes, and the cream should be
allowed to remain on all night

with alcohol before putting on the cream.
