Clear Complexion.

Everybody admires a clear
complexion; and every woman,
even the humble peasant girl
who owns a fine complexion val
ues it as one of her choicest pos
sessions.
There is no artificial means by
which complexion is manufac-
tured, and no successful imita-
tion is possible.
Complexion is something which
is more than skin deep. The
skin is a health indicator of the
highest value. Clearness and
transparency of skin mean clean
blood, transparent tissues, and
afford fair presumptive evidence
of health throughout the body.
Those conditions which produce
a tawny, dingy skin, produce al
SO a coated tongue, foul breath,
weak nerves, a dull and clouded
mind. The blotched and pim-
pied or jaundiced skin is only a
sign-board hung out to indicate
the contamination and general
vital disorder within.
A woman who breakfasts on
fried eggs, griddle cakes and ba-
con, and dimes on heavy meats,
ice cream and pie, can not hope
long to preserve her good looks,
even though her face may be as
fair as Hebe's. She will certain
ly suffer the retribution sure to
follow all infractions of natures
laws.
Abundance of exercise in the
open air, daily cold bathing, CO.
pious water drinking, avoidance
If meats, rich sauce and spices,
The free use of fruits, and mod
in all things, these are
he best cosmetics. Good Health

That there is wave of pro.
hibition sweeping the country is
shown in the falling off of the in.
ternal revenue receipts of the
Treasury department and the
government, to say the least, is
surprised. Liquor dealers ex-
pected hard times in their trade
but the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau, as far as its personnel is
concerned, is quite independent
of internal revenues. The clerks
of that gigantic Office will be paid
whether they collect anything or
not. They were not, therefore,
on the lookout and had no sus-
piciOn of the great monetary loss
that the government would sus-
tain. A big deficit is being Gre
ated in the government resources
and Congress will have to take
up the matter at the coming ses-
sion and cover the loss by impos.
ing other revenue taxes. There
was a deficit of two millions for
October and large deficits will
follow in succeeding months as
the prohibition movement
spreads. It is said that distillers
and wholesale liquor dealers have
lost so much already that they
cannot stand any further taxa
ton and remain in business. The
total loss in revenues since July
has been seven millions of dol
lars. The loss on beers and 9TH
er fermented liquors in Septem-
Der amounted to 81, 10000
There are some other curiousian
significant losses given in the in.

Now it is said that President
Roosevelt will be a candidate for
the Senate to succeed Senator
Platt of New York. 1t is also
reported that Mr.. Bryan will be
sent to the Senate from Nebras-
ka. The Roosevelt policies with
Taft in the White House and
Bryan and Roosevelt on the Sen
ate floor should have some show.

Not two days had elapsed after
the result of the election was as
certained and after Judge Taft
had announced that no establish
ment in this country had any,
thing to fear from his admins
tratiOn if it did not violate the
law, before the manufacturers
of the United States became ac-
tive. They did the same in 1879
when specie payments had been
resumed, and in 1897 when the
gold standard was declared for.
There is but one source of un-
easiness. Will there be a bona.
tide revision of the tariff or will
there be mere shuffiing of the
schedules without relief to the
overwhelming majority, that now
has to buy everything at enor-
mously highly protected prices?

The present head of the nation
keeps himself in excellent phys
ical condition by tennis, horse
back riding, walking and other
manly recreations. He would
have the Army and the Navy
and everybody else and his wife
follow his example. Last week
when he mustered sixty army
officers for a walk, he led them
a chase of about three hours,
which, if the facts were known,
sent most of them to bed and
might have sent some of them to
the hospital. The day of soft
knockkneed obesity is past in the
army.

GAS the modern world of letters has
mainly gone to Keats to learn style
the perfection of word and phrasing--
so it has gone to Poe to learn tone,
the truths of keeping an atmosphere
in composition. Poe did not set him
self to write copy-book maxims of
morality" observes Charles Leonard
Moore in The Dial, but the total eff.
feet of his work is that of loftiness and
nobility. His men are brave and his
women are pure. He is the least vul-

have any effect at all, his tend to make
men too truthful, too sensitive, too
highminded."
