HEALTH AND GOOD LOOKS.
Good Blood Is the Great Beautifier
and Fresh Air Most Impor-
tant in Making It.

GOOD health is a positive necessity
70 good looks. Beauty Is a thing that
SHINES through the face, and is not on
me surface. Ii you lack color, which
Is the Chief point of beauty, and put 1t
on, no matter how skilltulIy and dain-
lily, there is yet the surrounding flesh.
minus the flesh tints.
How often do we see women wear
Ing little color on their cheeks when
the rest Of the face shows that un-
healthy lack Of color, and so the effect
Is neither pretty nor pleasing. The
healthy tinge must come from within,
and the blood must be healthy and
good to give the redness, and the skin
must be healthy and clean to give the
proper chance for the health to shine
through. On Iue same principle, that
TO have a good light, you must have
clean, clear windows.
Another feature Of woman's beauty
is her hair. This will look lifeless and
dull and no vitality, unless the roots
are well fed and nourished properly.
This nourishment comes from the
blood, so that 90 have pretty hair 1t Is
necessary for the blood to be in good
condition.
The color of a woman's eyes she
cannot help; the expression in them
she can help, and the expression has
much to do with her looks. Uncom-
Portable clothes, tight shoes or cor
sets, worries, an ugly disposition, all
tend to spoil the expression Of a wom-
ans eyes. Also a rundown vitality
will dull a naturally bright eye; hence
again the beauty comes from within.
Good-looking teeth, firm, white and
clean, another important factor for
beauty, are dependent, of course, large
ly on external care, but they get their
life from the roots nourishment, so it
is important that they are fed by
healthy blood. So II is that after all,
the blood is the chief promoter OF
health and beauty. What makes
healthy blood? How to keep it so aft
er you get II?
The most important thing is clean
air, as that is one of the chief things
Of the bloOds diet In the savage
state, when humankind slept out OF
doors. in the forest, they were physic-
ally more perfect, healthier and con-
sequently better looking than civiliza-
ton can make them, even with beau
ty doctors" and all the other means
of artificial aid to improve woman's
looks.

IS A CANADIAN PARADISE.
Beauties of "The Lake Of Deep Wa
tiers" with Its Myriad
Islands.

Temagami is shaped like an octo-
pus, with long stretched-out arms, and
fits shores are indented with deep cir
cling bays, island strewn and culminat-
ing in sharp points and curves that
add to the beauty of this magical
scene. The lake Of deep waters" is
the meaning of the Indian word, and
they lie deep and cool in their bed OF
granite; IN stiffness a perfect mirror,
in storm darkly menacing. with foam
edged waves showing fang-like teeth,
writes Kate Westlake Weigh, in Four
Track News.
Being 100 square miles in area, Te-
magami forms one of Canada's great
natural reservoirs. Mighty rivers
from the height OF land to the north
flow into II, and il in turn feeds the
streams that flow southwark, carrying
their life-giving waters through the
forests to the peopled lands below.
There are / 400 islands In the lake, and
the government has included the whole
area in a magnificent forest reserve OF
q million and a half acres.

suls general. While congress did not
authorize in this measure the practical
civil service recommended by Secre-
tary Root. it is understood that the
policy of the administration will be to
adopt civil service methods in future
appointments. Already they have re-
quired candidates for appointments to
pass an examination fully as rigid as
the civil service commission would de-
wise. The president has let 1t be
known also that after this bill be
comes law the appointments in the
future will be only to the lower
grades of consul and that the higher
places will be filed by promotion as
vacancies occur.
There is another reform that has
not yet been accomplished, but which
is being strongly urged by business
organizations and those who demand
that the American consular service
shall be filled by Americans. In an ad-
dress recently submitted to congress
by Minister Barratt on the subject of
Americans needed as vice and dep
uty consuls," he tells the following
rather startling facts: OF go con-
sulates general, 20, or one-third, have
vice or deputy consuls who are not
Americans. OF 225 consulates, 113, or

MARYLAND's CHILD LABOR LAW
In Effect Week and Brings interest

ing Facts to Light.
Baltimore, Nd, Sept. 1.-THE child
labor law regulating the employment
of children, which was passed at the
last session of the Maryland legisla.
ture, has been in effect one week and
some interesting facts have been
brought to light
The number of child laborers under
16 years old in the state, according to
the estimates made by the officials OF
the bureau of statistics from the data
at hand, is considerably over 10000.
Over 500 certificates emitting the
children to work have been issued and
nearly 800 children have been refused
the right to work because of physical
or mental deficiencies. These figures
show that about 10 per cent. of the
child workers of the state are either
illiterate or physically deficient.
The law prohibits children under 12
years of age from working and re-
quires that all child workers between
12 and 16 years Of age register at the
office Of the bureau of statistics to Sc
cure certificates enabling them to
work. 1t empowers the examiners to
refuse this permission in case they
are physically OF mentally unfit TO
work

PHTLADELPHIA,S
MURDER MYSTERY
Police Near Solution Of Brutal Stab
bing Of Young Woman.
MOTIVES FOR CRIME UNKNOWN

Philadelphia, Sept. 1.-THE mystery
of the brutal murder of Mrs. Morris K
Lewis, a young wife and mother, who
was stabbed and thrust into a closet
on the lower floor of a house of which
she and her 17-months-old child were
for the greater part of the day sup
posed to be the sole occupants, will
be solved in a day or two The police
say the murderer cannot escape, that
they know who he is and are watching
him
The. proprietress of the house, Char.
lotte Kelly, and lodger named Harry
SOmers, the latter a grocery sales
man, have been subjected to some Sc
we're cross-examination as to their do
ings. Just what the motive for the
murder was is still unsolved.
When Mr.. Lewis, the murdered wo-
mans husband, was seen it was easy
to see that the shock has completely
unnerved him and that he is much
broken up. Prompted by the police, he
refuses to discuss any Of the salient
features of the case and would make
only the following statement:
"This thing is an awful blow to me.
Only a day ago I was sitting in the
Hotel Ford, Altoona, going over plans
to build home in Tyrone.
'We did not have an enemy in the
world that l know of. Why anyone
should have done this I cannot imag
inc. only wish that baby was year
and a half older. He is a bright
youngster and could tell who the muir.
derer was. My wife was above suspi.
cion and no one can say anything
about her. knew her for two years
before our marriage and we had been
married four years."
Mr.. Lewis refused to say who his
wife's people in Pittsbrg are or to
discuss the case as to a motive in any
way.
Before the arrival of the husband
the detectives had made a thorough /
search Of the house. Upstairs every.
thing was in roder, but on the first
floor a tell-tale trail of blood led
through the hall from the dining room
to the parlor, at the door of which the
mat told where the
tragedy had eliminated
The position of the woman's body in
the little closet in the hall seemed tc
indicate that life had not been extinct
when she was thrust into its depths
Part of the weight of the body was on
the feet, but the major portion of the
trunk rested on a shelf, the head, with
jugular vein severed with some SHARP
instrument, which, the detectives say,
was a stiletto, and her long dark hair
elotted with blood, lay forward on the
eft arm, as though she had so fallen
when too weak to longer stand.
Against the closet door were placed
wo heavy chairs, dragged from the
)arlor. One of them had its back
,aught under the door knob in such
way as to prevent the opening of the
foor from the inside, and the other
vas simply placed against it.
In the kitchen were found further
vidences of the murderer's guilt. Two
loody towels, one a fine one from a I
oom upstairs, the other a tea towel !
licked up in the kitchen, showed that q
he man had endeavored to wash the
tain of guilt from his hands before
aaving the house. n
