Spelling Ones Good Looks.

It should be the aim of every wom-
an to master the expression OF her
face. Expression is the action OF GER
tain muscles of the face. Joy, sad
ness, love, hate, fear or anger, each
calls into play a set of muscles. The
habitual use of one of these leaves
on the countenance marks which tell
their own story, says the Montreal
Herald. Cultivate placidity of ex-
preston, and rest assured that there
will be no danger of vacancy of coun-
tenance. Avoid wrinkling your brow,
closing one eye, frowning, smiling.
turning up the nose," thrusting the
tongue into the cheek, pouting, point
ing the lips, pursuing up the mouth or
letting it loll open, opening widely the
eyes, wagging the head, grinning, or
otherwise twisting or comforting the
features. It means sure damage to a
pretty face and is inconsistent with
good breeding.

HOW ANTHRACITE WAS MADE.

Scientific Explanation of. the Differ
ence in Coal.
The popularity of the Pocahontas
coal is to be found in it's low content
of ash and volatile matter as we'll as
of sulphur and other impurities, and
the resultan high percentage OF fixed
carbon with the high calorific value
that follows upon such conditions.
The Pocahontas vein is thought to
correspond to-the anthracite vein OF
red ash coal of the Lykens valley
near Pottsville, Pa. The geological
explanation of the difference is that
the anthracite bed was subjected to
a more thorough coking process under
pressure than the Pocahontas portion
of the vein, while the latter owes its
own lack of volatile matter to the
fact that it was subjected to heat
under pressure for more protracted
period than the bituminous Goals OF
western Pennsylvania and Ohio.

NEW YORK, May 24-Larry Tenn
pie, a negro pugilist, beat Charley
haghey last night in 3 battle with five
ounce gloves held in a dance hall up
town on the east side. The room was
crowded with Wall street brokers, a
few lawyers and half a score of bust
ness men. The fight was one of the
tiercest seen in this city since the Hor-
ton law was repealed. Tom O'Rourke
managed the show. The last round
was of the whirlwind order, but Tenn
pie was unable TO land a knockout
blow. When time was called at the
end of the tenth round both men were
bleeding freely from the mouth and
nose. Referee Harley gave the deci-
sion to Temple, and the general opin-
ion was that this was correct. Police
men were patrolling within 100 feet
Of the building, but so perfect were
the arrangements that not one of them
dreamed prizefght was, on.
