WRINKLES OF AGE
HOW THEY MAY BE AVOIDED
AND KEPT FROM THE THROAT.
In Addition 10 Massage, Tissue
Building Creams Must BE Applied
to Nourish the Flesh and TO Help
Tighten Muscles.

BY massaging the throat every
day the stringy appearance that In
dicates age may be STAYED off indefl-
nitely and the hollowness directly
ut the front OF the neck will not ap-
pear to indicate the absence OF
youth. In addition to massage tis-
sue building creams must be applied
to nourish the flesh and to help
tighten muscles.
An unguent particularly suited to
the throat is made from half a gram
of tannin, thirty grams of lanoline
and twenty grams OF oil OF sweet
almonds. The last two ingredients
should be mixed by placing in a
basin set into boiling water. The
lanolne should be soft but not hot.
As soon as II is in this condition re-
move from the heat and beat, add
ing the tannin while the mixture Is
still soft but not warm. This cream
is to be used night and morning.
Besides this treatment with To-
tons and massage, the manner or
holding ones head has much to do
and II the cords are not to become
weakened, extremely tight collars
should not be worn. A dress band
&C., that is shaped and properly
boned will look smart without being
80 small at the top as to impede cir
culation, for by stopping a free flow
of the blood and cramping the mus
cles one cause OF an "old looking
neck Is given.
That common habit OF holding the
head slightly drooped not only
causes double chin, but is incidental
ly bad for the throat, and one OF
the first habits that woman should
train herself In is to hold the head
erect, putting the chin at natural
angle.
Then, too, exercise for keenSlg
down any double chin tendency, and
for promoting f1rmness OF the throat
should be practiced night and morn
ing for fve minutes or longer.
No collar must be worn when TAX
ing these movements. The first mo-
tion should be started with the head
held erect and the chin well up; ther
the head Is bent back as far as II
will go. This will be felt directly
by the throat cords, which will b'
pulled. In bringing the head bach
It should be tipped forward until th'
chin rests on the chest. These tive
movements may be made ten time
each
Then the head is tipped from sid
to side, following this With a screv
motion, that is. turning the face a
far round as the throat will permit
describing a half circle in the al
with the chin while regaining tn
front. Simple as are these exercise

Find Revere's Well.

The old we'll from which Paul Re-
we're used to quench his thirst has
been located since the work of restor-
alton on the old house in Boston be-
gan.
In strengthening the walls Of the
old house workmen dug up under
a corner of the ell and came upon
some old hand-hewn oak planks.
Proceeding with great care they
found these to be the planking OF
what appeared at first to be a large
water tank or cistern. Further m
vestigation showed that they had
struck upon the old well. 1t was
seen that the we'll must have been
lined with plank all the way down.
1t is about four feet in diameter and
is square. It was filled up long ago
and the planking alone remains.
In connection with the work in
other Parts of the building other IN
teresting finds have been made
Many Of the articles being unearthed
will be placed In the museum, which
1t is proposed to establish In the
house.
There are two pieces of old Loves.
toft china, parts of cup and saucer
bottles of curious shape, having glass
about half an inch thick, bits OF Chi
ma and earthepware in white and

| old half dollar and an old fashioned
cent, bearing the date of 1874.

After the national democratic com mfttee had completed it's organization for campaign work at Chicago Iast Saturday, Colonel Bryan was quoted as follows by reporter or the Chica- go Tribune:
 The action of the committee Tn the selection of the officers is satisfac- tory" declared the candidate for pres ident. MT. Mack is a member of the committee and it has been felt ali the time that the chairman should be talk en from the committee, unless there was some weighty reason for gong outside, and no such reason appeared
 MT. Mack's appointment IS a recog- milton of the eastern democracy, and an announcent that We expect to fight our platform, and l can say of him personally that he has been a close and trusted friend in former cam paigns. One of the strongest argu- ments in his favor was that ne .s a successful business man, Beginning at the bottom of the ladder he has built up a business that amounts to more than half million a year, and the executive ability he has shown in his work commended him to the com mittee that made the selection.
