affectionate rebuke. He said: ''This is

In Spain, as well as in Portugal, the

she is conspicuous for her profound

NEW YEARS IN SCOTLAND.
Bringing In the New Year at Iron
Church, Edinburgh.

Bringing In the New Year at Iron
Church, Edinburgh.
New Years is the great Scottish hol-
iday. Christmas is Of course an off,
cial holiday, and in the large towns,
despite old prejudices, its observance
is becoming more recognized among
the better business houses. But for
the general population of the country
the New Year is the great holiday festi-
val, and, though temperance sentiment
Is making it's way, there is still a great
deal Of hard drinking at this season.
It is none the less a fact, however, that
the spread of temperance education
and the better amusement Of the peo-
pie are gradually having their influence
in making New Years less Of a satur-
MALTA than it was wont to be.
Bringing In the New Year at the Iron
church, Edinburgh, is a time honored
custom which does not seem to be fall
ing into disuse. On the last night Of
1898 thousands of. young people, with
a sprinkling Of older persons, congre-
gated as usual at the Iron church,
which is In the heart Of old Edinburgh,
to speed the passing year. When the
church clock showed midnight, a loud
cheer was raised, h~andshaking became
general, the old s%alutation, "a happy
New Yearw was heard on all sides, and,
bottles Of the national beverage having
been produced from topcoat pockets,
healths were generously pledged. Aft
er this had been done bands Of ROSTER
ing youths and maidens set off to first
FOOT their friends .-Chicago Record.

M NEW YEARS..
Various Dates Celebrated Mt Differ
ent Periods.

Various Dates Celebrated mt Differ
ent Periods.
The good old Romans, who had som
hard common sense in spite OF their
self conceit, believed thoroughly IN
New Years day. They were a
teristically careless as to when 1t
should be celebrated, and sometimes 1t
was held at various dates Of the year
by communities living at no greater
distance from each other than a rail-
road train would take them In these
DAYS In a few hours. But so long as
they got the full number of high days
and holidays into the II months the
good old Romans cared little whether
they adhered strictly to the almanac.
or not.
Even when Christianity became an
established institution in the land and
the Christian leaders began to sys-
tematize the days for celebrations IN
which the church participated there
was still q difference of opinion as to
the day on which New. Years. could
properly be celebrated. It is even on
record that New Years day has been
kept on the date set apart for Christ
mas, while 1t got so mixed up with the
other divisions Of time at another pc
Rod that it was kept on Easter day
one year and on the LIST Of March on
another. It Is necessary to trace the
celebration Of the first New Years day
clear down to the sixteenth century be-
fore any definite understanding of the
proper day for the celebration a be
found.-Brooklyn Citizen.

FOOTPRINTS In the Ashes,

Sweetened ale or egg flip is the pre-
scribed beverage for the drinking of
healths on New Years. In Scotland
the housewife takes care before retir-
ing the last night of the year to spread
the ashes smoothly on the hearth. If
in the morning the print Of a foot ear
be detected; with the toe pointing to-
ward the door, 1t is thought to fore
tell a death in the family during the
year, but If the toe points in an oppo-
site direction there will be a marriage
soon.-Atlanta Constitution.

TOILET SUGGESTIONS.

Hints From q Beauty Doctor That WIN
Improve Poor Compilations.
Freokles are due to an excess Of coloripg
matter deposited in the second layer Of the
skin underneath the cuticle. They are
caused by On 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 o 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 a wineglass Of strong vine-
gar, two ounces Of glycerin and half q
pint of distilled water applied.
For people troubled with moist or oily
skin, q hot soapsuds bath once q week Is
recommended, using CASTLE soap, as 1t Is
Of O drying nature. Bay rum and camphor
may be used by such persons, as they dry
the oil somewhat, when the camphor
would parch other compilations. The OPT
UNI found in the stems Of Towering lettuce
relnes the skin and absorbs the oil. Rub
the milky juice collected from broken
stems of garden lettuce over the face at
night, allowing 1t to dry on.
Wrinkles depend on the attenuation OF
the skin and the reduction in bulk Of the
underlying surfaoial portions of the body.
They are not a dis ase, but are the results
of worry, grimaces, poor health, etc.
Wrinkles ought not to appear before the
