HOW TO sE BEAUTIFUL.

TO look beautiful is a duty which the fair sex owes both to themselves and their friends said one of the wise men of modem times, and with the discoveries of modern scientists there Is no good reason why they shouldn' perform that duty. Every one should do all in his or her power to supple ment nature in adorning the person and while it is true. that a fine com plexion is not given to all. yet the work of nature, not always beautiful, may be improved upon in many ways The many thousands wno have been bene- fited by Dr. T. r. Gourauds Oriental Cream, or Magical Beautifier, appreci- ate this. and know it's value as a cos metic. They know that a skin that is freckled, tanned, pimpled or moth patched can be made like the new born babes. It has been recommended by physicians for those who will use toilet preparations, and the board of health declared 1t free from all inturi- ous properties. All druggists and fancy goods stores appreciate its value and keep it for sale."-Tne Mail and Ex- press, New York.

BLESSINGS OF FEVER
Even Yellow JacB, Hated by all, Has
 its Good Points.

Houston, Tex, Sept. 15.-(Special Correspondence of The Republican.)- Students of municipal affairs here and throughout the south are just realizing that indirectly the yellow fever excite ment of the present year is proving the greatest blessing that has visited the south in the course of her recent history.
 Throughout the whole of the gulf coast country the crusade of cleanliness and sanitation has been pushed through the present season as it was never pushed before. Every city, town and hamlet has gone to undreamed of lengths in its determination to exter- minate the yellow fever mosquito, and cleanliness is generally recognized as the cure.
 The southern cities have been more criticized for their lack of proper sew craze and proper attention paid to the matter of general cleanliness than from any other score. Unkemptness has been the eyesOre of the southern muni- cipality. Financial troubles since the war, coupled with the southern liking for that which is of a past decade, have both tended to retard progress along sanitary lines, and the lOwnesS and flatness of the majority of the gulf

ADJUSTMENTS

In that refreshing comic opera, The Pretty Persian" is combined all the elements of a genuine entertainment. An interesting story, bringing on the trials and t-ibulations of one Hoola- boom. and abouRding in catchy music, pretty dances and witty dialogue, serves to introduce d capable company, of which F. A. Wade the eccentric comedian. is at the head. There is no villain. no crime, no suggestion of evil just fun, and plenty of it. During the play a number of high-cIass spe- ciaIties will be introduced, and we un- derstand the Persian costumes worn is another attractive feature. The seats are now on sale at Goodmans drug store and from the lively demand, the atregoers appreciate the fact of the re- duced prices, which are 25, 50 and 75 cents.

towns has tended to emphasize stag nation. and the unusual precautions naturally necessary have been to a large extent neglected. But with the breaking out of the yellow fever this year began a new era in the admins tration of the towns and cities of the south.
 In the light of modern scientific in vestigation of the disease there has come to be no doubt in the popular mind that the sole manner of trans mission is through the agency of "stig- amayia fascinatus," the mosquito. An extermination of this mosquito in any given locality was generally recognized as the only method of preventing the disease or of controlling it when once it got hold. And cleanliness meant the death of the mosquito.
 The reputation of the disease for deadliness. gained some years past when its treatment was little under stood, had placed in the minds Of the general public an uncomfortable dread of Yellow Jack which is in no way jus tified by the modern death rate, but which lent a frenzied zest to the de- termination to exclude it from any community.
 Every town from the CaroIinas to Mexico called special sessions of its municipal body, passed resolutions and ordinances looking to cleanliness. ap- propriated moneys to be placed in the hands of the health departments, en- larged street cleaning forces, drained all stagnant pools, cut and burned weeds, and in every way possible abol- ished the breeding places of the mos quito. Thousands of tons of salt and quicklime have been used in making z !, able to the wiggler which later deveI- ops into the mosquito. Enough oil has been spread upon the pools of the south to float the whole of the Amer ican navy.
 As a primary result, the dread fever has remained under control and mas not spread to any other state than Louisiana in any marked degree. But the secondary result of the crusade of cleanliness is of vastly more and far reaching importance than the tempor- ary control of an infectious disease
 The people of the south have devel- Oped almost a mania for municipal cleanliness which is being pushed with the customary enthusiasm. Reports are beginning to be received from all parts of the country pointing to very marked season of healthfulness. Ev- anywhere malaria has this season scarcely gotten a hold, and chills and fever and the usual complaints of the heated season are greatly reduced. The question is being asked as to the cause of this change in conditions, and an answer is being found in the unusual sanitary condition into which the whole south has been put.
 The many virtues of the system of this year having been exemplified. it is that t will in the future be discontinued. The yellow fever scare
