TOILET SUGGESTIONS.
Hints From q Beauty Doctor That VIII
Improve Poor Compilations

Hints From q Beauty Doctor That win
Improve Poo Compilations.
Freckles are due to an excess Of coloring
matter deposited in the second layer Of the
skin underneath the cutiele. They are
caused by an excess Of iron In the blood.
If they are not of very dark color, they
can be bleached out, but If they are OF the
pronounced brown species, their removal
will consist in destroying the outer layers
Of the skin. :.
A paste. composed of vinegar, honey and
bitter almonds Is said to be good for re.
moving freckles.
As q, general thing the blood is not re-
sponsible for the different blemishes which
appear on the face. Dirt gets into the
pores of the skin, and the result is an erup'
ton of some sort.
Pimples should be opened with a needle
or sharp knife, the secretion squeezed out
and O lotion of q wineglass Of strong vine-
gar, two ounces Of glycerin and half o
pint Of distilled water applied.
For people troubled with moist or oily
skin, q hot soapsuds bath once d week Ii
recommended, using CASTLE soap, as 1t is
of a drying nature. Bay rum and carnphor
may be used by such persons, as they dry
the oil somewhat, when the camphor
would parch other complexions. The CPL
UNI found in the stems Of Towering lettuce
refnes the skin and absorbs the oil. Rub
the milky juice collected from broken
stems Of garden lettuce over the face at
uight, allowing 1t to dry on.
Wrinkles depend IN the attenuation OF
the skin and the reduction in bulk Of the
underlying surfacial portions'of the body.
They are not q dis ase, but are the results
of worry, grimaces,, poor health, etc.
Wrinkles ought not to appear before the
fiftieth year, but how often we see them
at rs. The more delicate the skin the more
-1bject 1t is to. these disf1gurements.-

How Did The Dog Know

ii How did "Trixie" know that her
master lay bleeding and unconscious
on heh floor, while men crowded around
to try to help him and the police am
bulance was flying through the streets
to his aid? She did know, although
she was outside the building, and she
cried and moaned until his sweetheart,
pretty Miss Nellie Getty, was warned,
too. So it was that when Surgeon
McGillivray reached Edward Corn
ley's side he found Miss Getty weep

her lap, and Trixie LICK ing his face.

Storage Company. Trixie is his lit
tie pet dog, who used to ride every
where with him on the big wagon.
But since her master has become en-
gagged to Miss Getty, Trixie has shown
q decided preference tor that young
lady's society, and spends most of her
time with her.
Saturday Miss Getty went out shop.
ping and Trixie accompanied her.
They were crossing the alley on Six
tenth street, between Lawrence and
Arapahoe streets, when the dog be-
gan to dance and whine, and called
Miss Getty's attention to Gormley's
wagon, which was standing in the al
ley. AS she had just been wishing
she could meet her lance Miss Getty
walked to tie wagon to wait until be
should come out of the store. She
had waited but a moment when the
dog showed signs of the utmost dis
tress. She hung her head and whined
and cried as If she had been whipped,
and she kept up her moaning. In q
few minutes q man opened the rea-
door of the store and asked Miss Getty
If she were waiting for the driver. He
then told her that he had been in
jured, and was laid out on the floor in
side. F.:
Gormly's escape from sudden death
had been marvellous. He was wait
Ing for the freight elevator, and he
looked into the shaft to see whether
it was coming. 1t descended and

sheared off as with a guillotine. The
surgeon found him with q torn ear, d

It Does Make q Difference.

In Munster recently a man received
three years penal servitude for attempting
to poison his wife by administering to her
sulphate of zinc in whisky. At Leeds q
woman was condemned to 90 years penal
servitude for attempting to murder her hus'
band by administering poison In his food
It is certainly difficult to account for this
vast difference in the punishment in two
such similar cases, and a lady correspond
ent insinuates that to the woman were
given 30 years because the judges, being
men, naturally regard the crime as more
heinous In a wife than In husband. My
own opinion, after reading the reports, Is
that the woman got nc more than she de-
served, but the man q good deal less

It's beneath a woman's dignity 20 keep

A girl who has been bridesmaid four
times, and thereby cut herself of from all
prospects of matrimony says, this ts what
happens at every wedding: The bride
gives minute and particular directions
about the packing Of her trunk. She knows
to within the n hundredth Of an inoh

Of the family assist In examining the trays

strap around 1t, but one person leaves 1t
to another until the moment for departure
arrives. At this %juncture the discovery is
made that the trunk Is not otked, the
keys are missing and everybody wonders
where the strap can be.
Twenty minutes until train time.
"Where's your trunk key'" some one
asked the groom. "My dear, they are ask

"Certainly-on the key ring" To the
anxious searchers, "You'n find the trunk
key on a small, heart shaped key ring, my
wife says" replies the happy young man.
"But where is thatp" comes In chorus.
"I'm sure I don't know" falters the
bride almost in tears. "Oh, never mind.
There, there; bother the trunk. What do
we carep'.' says the groom.
The bride has a happy thought. George
I have two keys to that trunk.
"Well, you're a wise little woman" In
tones Of pride from the young husband,
while the aunts and cousins say, "She has
another key"
"But they were both IN the same key
