A MAN TO AVOID.
The One who Is Generally Disiiksa
bv Dthpr Mem


by other Men.
The cynical old maid would probably
tell us that all men should be avoided.
The happily married young woman
will say that Is nonsense men are
good, as undoubtedly they are to GER
tain extent Rarely does one come
across any man who is thoroughly
bad.
Yet the old maid is not entirely
wrong, either. There are some men
whom 1t Is well to avoid, and the young
girl who Is Just entering social life
should take the advice OF those who
have had more experience than herself
that is to say, in the greater issues
1t savors OF youth and almost foolish
ness to refuse to know man even
slightly because of some faults.
In the matter of real friendship, how
ever and marriage, girl Is unwlse IL
she accept as friend or lover man
whom other men dislike. Such a man
ls not often worthy of good woman's
consideration and certainly the insx-
perlenced girl is better to keep at
arms length man of this sort.
Either he Is mean or selfish, a blus-
terer or must plead guilty to other
faults. AS an acquaintance perhapsshe
might be possible, but as friend most
inadvisable.
One wants man who is compare
lively strong all over IL he is to be ad-
mltted to the innermost sanctuary. The
man who is impossible in one Oh more
respects must certainly be relegated
to the mere outward fringe-New York

The best way TO correct II case of en-
larged pores Is to lay down certain
hygienic rules of living and stick to
them. Drink a great deal of water. so
as to keep the kidneys in perfectly
healthy condition. Eat fruit to keep
the digestive organs active. Take n
course of complexion treatments that
include massage and electricity. The
idea is to set the glands and blood
vessels about their business, so the
skin will refine itself, 1t is when the
pores are inactive and in an unhealthy
state that they become small indenta-
tlOns. Use the complexion brush every
night with warm water and pure cas-
tile soap, afterward applying creme
marquis. The friction is good, and the
habit of cleanliness is always com
mendable.

The Man In III. Neon n germany


The German legend tells us that
ages ago an old man went one Sun
day morning into the forest to cut
timber (hew sticks). He cut bundle
of fagots and swung them over his
shoulder and began to trudge home.
On the way he met a remarkable
looking individual with a face as
bright as the sun. "Do you know,
old man, that it is Sunday on earth,
when all men rest from their la
bors ?" asked the stranger. Sunday
on earth or Monday in hell, it is all
tie same to me- said the hardened
old wretch.
''Phen bear your bundle forever" 4"
said the stranger as he vanished
from sight. A moment later the old
sinner and his fagots were deposited
on the moon, where they stand to
this day, a perpetual warning to all
Sabbath breakers.

During the middle ages the cleo

coronation wore three crowns-the
silver crown as king of Germany,
the iron crown Of Lombardy as king
of Italy and the imperial crown as
kaiser of the holy Roman empire.
The first was received at Aix-la-
Chapelle, the second at Mona and
the third at Rome, but Karl V. was
the last kaiser-king who received
the imperial crown at the popc's

Challenger for 1907.


New York, Jan. 11.-Sir Thomas Lip
ton Is making plans for another cam
paign against the New York Yacht
Club next year and the bone of conten-
ton will be the Americas cup. for
which the popular Irish baronet al
ready has tried three times.
A letter received in this city this
week from Sir Thomas says that he
still has hopes OF capturing the famous
trophy and is considering plans for the
building Of a new challenger which he
hopes to have here some time in 1907.
Just what plans he is making now he
will not divulge, but he is pleased to
think that the next time he comes here
he can bring a good. wholesome type
of boat and will be met by one built
under certain restrictions that will bar
excessive overhangs and other freak
ish features.
1t is said on good authority that Sir
Thomas may bring over schooner and
that the new boat will be built up to
the limit Of that type Of yacht allowed
under the terms Of the deed of gift

it was denied that the premier stated
that the imperial manifesto of Oct. so

it was asserted, said that the Emper-
