Explains His System.

Frof. Zabludovski, In speaking of
massage in general and of his own
system, or, rather, the system taught in
Berlin, says:
In many cases q, special apparatus
may adNantageously replace the move
hlehts of the hands. Nevertheless. for
cosmetic massage of the face the most
eHeetiye manipulations should be per-
formed only with the hands. By this
means complete renewal of the mus
GUAR npre can be effected, causing a
shght irritation of the nerves. which
is transmitted to the vessels, stimu-
latlng them and by that. fact producing
a more rapid movement of the san
gulneous fluid. The, massage has, an ore
over, an equalizing effect when the
sensltlNeness is exaggerated or weak,

the disappearance of flushing and pale
ness which many persons display on
the slightest emotion.
BY methodical massage one may
succeed in obtaining from the forehead

they are covered with large quantities

To Get Bid Of Wrinkles.

To get rid Of wrinkles the masseuse
stands behind the patient and smooths
| them with the tips Of the three first
fingers OF each hand in a transverse
direction along the forehead, begin
ming in the center and continuing the
movement as far as the temples.
If it is desired to attack the wrinkles
beneath the eyes they must be lightly
rubbed with the thumbs. The move
ment begins at the back Of the nose
and is carried over the maxillar bones,
beneath the lower eyelids and up to the
temples. It must be done quickly,
bearing in mind that massage of the
face should never exceed fifteen min
utes and that of the body thirty min
utes at the outside. A longer period
would produce no better effects and
would be contrary to the methods of
massage, which are as follows: 1t
must be done quickly, with force or
briskness.
The disappearance. or at any rate
the partial effacement, of wrinkles of
the lower lip, is also produced by light
friction with both thumbs, beginning
exactly below the lower lip and con-
tinued as far as the branches ascend
antes" of the lower jaw.

How Treatment Is Applied.

In applying the Berlin system to a
person, probably 80 years of age, fat,
with a faded complexion and a ten
dency to wrinkle-an ideal subject for
treatment-the patient is ordered to
close. her eyes, SO that the face may
be entirely relaxed. Then the operator
stands on one side or behind.
If the object is to remove wrinkles
of the forehead the masseuse stands
upright on the right side of the patient
Her right hand moves in a transverse
direction. The movements are Zigzag,
beginning at the root of the nose and
being prolonged to the line of the hair.
The left hand is engaged Simultaneous
ly in a similar movement, beginning at
the base of the forehead and being pro-
longed upwards to the roots of the hair.
If it is desired TO give to the nose a
regular form, that organ must be
kneaded with the palm surface of the
thumb and forefIlger of the right hand
The movement, which is in sigzags and
composed of light vibrations, extends
from the point Of the root of the nose
The masseuse passes her fingers over
both sides of the nose; she stands at
the right side of the patient, and her
left hand supports the nape of the
neck

SECOND CITY IN THE WORLD.
Greater New York Holds That Position
by Her Population.
From Scientlfic American.


The incomplete census figures Indicate
that the population of New York Is now
just under 1000. coo. or, to be exact. 1885,
154. The probabilities are that Manhattan
and the Bronx alone will be found to have
a population of 2,37S.6 96 1t is interesting to
go back and compare the population of New
York in the successive stages of its growth
with that OF today. The first federal GEN.
sus, taken In 1890. shows that the popuia-
ton was SO, 131. In 1900 ii had risen to
60 515, and In 1910 1t was 96373. In the next
twenty years it more than doubled. having
reached 202. $50 in 1880. By the middle of
the century 1t had passed the half million
mark. Thirty years later, in 1880, 1t had
again more than doubled. the population
being 200. 293. From 1900 to 1905 New York
had grown from 3. 437 600 to 1881 or at
the rate of over 100000 year. The stand
ing of New York among the big cities OF the
world is shown by the following figures:
London comes first. with 4,536.641 people.
and next to New York are Paris, with 2,714.-
COS: Berlin. with ], SIS, S4S and Chicago,
with 1.69S.575. Then follow Vienna, Can
ton. Toxic and Philadelphia, all OF which
have over 100000 inhabitants, the last
named having 1,293, 697 in the census OF
1900.
AS to the possibility of New York city
becoming the largest city in the world. there
is no indication That LONDON VIII lose the
first place for many decades to come, for
within the metropolitan and city police lin
its that city contains 65S1, 372 souls, this
being the population of what might be called
Greater London. To put II in another way.
London's Manhattan" contains 4.613,S12
souls, as against New York's Manhattan
population of 2,127, 6o2; while her Greater
London has 6.5S1 ,S72 people, as compared
with Greater New York's population of just
under 100000 The rate of growth how
ever Is faster In New York than in London.
and If the present rate should continue It
will only be a question of time before the
largest city in the world will be found in
the western hemisphere.

''The Aud Brig o. Doom"
rom the Providence Journal.

Lord Rosebery has done well to protest
against the proposed demolition OF the Brig
of Ayr. The town council of Ayr calls 1t
rebuilding. But as Lord Rosebery says, the
resources of engineering should be adequate
to preserve a structure which is almost sa-
cred. Indeed, were there no sentiment left
for Burns in the land he did so much TO
celebrate. the accustomed canniness of the
Scot should suffice to save a landmark that
Is yearly coined into good money. How
many travellers would care a rap for Ayr
without the old bridge?

Win Test Seed Corn.

The Farm Crops Department Of
the Iowa State Agricultural College
is DESTROYS Of obtaining accurate in
formation on the terminating quail
ties Of Seed Corn throughout the
state this spring. Much Of the corn
entered for premiums at Corn Shows
and farmers Institutes has proven,
on close examination, to be badly
injured by freezing, and conse-
quently is very low in vitality. The
past three unfavorable seasons have
greatly reduced the terminating
power of our corn and unless un-
usual precautions are taken with
the seed intended for planting this
spring there will be poor stand
and a proportionately low yield.
We desire to have every farmer
who reads this notice to take one
hundred representative ears of his
seed corn, remove two kernels from
each ear, send these two hundred
kernels to the Farm Crops Depart
ment Of the Iowa State College,

be made. A report will be mailed

pleted. The names Of individuals

1t IL Not More Uncommon Than II

A writer on natural history complains
that men are prone to regard mascu-

virtue purely human. In reality self
sacrifice for the female sex or for the
young is part of the scheme of nature,
and every male thing is strong and
splendid in appearance because lie is
the descendant of those who have
proudly held and guarded 'the privi-
lege of DEATH Another writer tells
story which illustrates this point. Two
entomologists, hunting at night clam
bered over a gate with their swinging
lanterns and found themselves in field
filed with sheep. The result of their
coming was panic and n furious STAN
pede. The sheep charged heller skelter
away from the lanterns and huddled to-
gether at the far end of the field. But
there was ram among Them and as
the flock scurried away this creature
stood firm, covering the retreat. Then,
steadily and majestically, the huge ram
advanced with lowered head toward
the mysterious lights and pressed them
back to the gate. This Is only one
graphic story of many that might be
told of masculine courage throughout
nature. Man has some virtues which
animals, SO far as we can Judge, know
nothing about; but heroism-the pride
of affording protection to the weak
and daring death for the security of

Former Generations.
A sure cure for the ague, according
to an old time specific, was to rub a
live spider in butter and then eat 1t.
The late Vincent Stuckey Lane, who
died in England after spending much
of his life in the collection of folk lore,
gives many other instances of the med
icines of former generations. To rub a
dried mole to powder and to swallow
us much Of it us would lie on a shilling
for nine days in succession was anoth-
er cure for ague. A hare's foot carried
on the person prevented collie, cells ap-
piled to the ears were n specific against
deafness, and epilepsy yielded to a

Just as they were forcing their way
through the ground and swallowed in
claret at midnight. There were many
ways of curing fits, but the simplest
plan was to go into church ut mid
night and walk three times round the
communion table. A snakes skin worn
round the temples was good for the
headache, but If that failed the sufferer
might try moss grown on human
skull, then powdered and taken as
snuff.
Whooping cough could never be
caught by a child who had ridden q
bear, but If no bear was handy the
child might be soundly. thrashed or
drawn backward through bramble
bush. The subject of signs and omens
fills number of pages of Mr.. Lanes
five volumes. Under the heading Good
and Ill Luck In Marriage" he shows
on how trifing matter the marital
happiness or unhappiness of our ances-
tors could turn. 1t was unlucky, for
example, to receive present of doves,
to marry on the anniversary of birth,
to tread on the tail of cat, to put on
ones stockings wrong side out or to
try the wedding ring on before mar
riage.
On the wedding day the happy cou-
pie had to redouble their vigilance, as
| n horse looking at them through a
gateway, pig running across their
path on the way to church, dog run
ming between them or the clock striz-
ing during the ceremony might wreck
their happiness. For the bride to look
in the glass after she was attired in
her wedding finery was sure to bring
Ill luck. On the other hand, 1t was
lucky to be followed by strange dog
when going counting, to be touched by
the wing of bat or for the bride to
hear cat sneeze on the eve of her
wedding.
