A Beneficial Toilet Preparation

A complexion beautiiier that Is not
only harmless, but that is positively
purifying, healing and beneficial has
a just claim to the attention of all who
have the praiseworthy desire to as
sist nature in the production of beau
tiful complexion. DR.. T. Felix Gour-
aud's Oriental Cream, or Magical
Beautifier, is gaining in favor with
those who know its value. and how
with its aid the skin that is freckled
tanned, pimpled or moth.patched can
be made like new born babes. Hav-
ing been declared by the Board Of
Health to be free from injurious prop
critics, and being recommended by
physicians. one need have no hesita.
ton in giving It trial. as 1t is on sale
at all druggists and fancy goods

Do Plants Breathe?

Respiration is part of the life Of
all organisms, animal and vegetable.
1t is series of chemical changes, the
first Of which is the absorption of
oxygen into the body. and the last of
which is the exhalation Of carbonic
acid. Any organ adapted to this
double work-the iphalation of oxy-
gen and exhaation of carbonic acid
is lung, though, of course. the or
gan is much more rudimentary in the
plant than in man. II is none the less
true, however, that every living or
ganism, whether plant or animal,
breathes.--New York American.

The Equitable Life l-jsurance
Society, Of New York, is plan
ming to erect a siXty-two story
building thai will be 900 feet
high with a flagpole on top $50
feet high. The new building
will be 200 feet taller than the
Singer building one of the tai.
lest in the world. The cost of
the building will be $4,000, 900.
Policy holders will not see
their dividends increased while
such expenditures go on. These
big buildings do not pay from
a rental standpoint.
And are built more as an ad-
vertisement than an investment.
Nothing more needless and de-
moralizing has occurred in the
State than the calling for and
distributing Of government ra-
tons to several thousand labor
ers thrown out of employment
in overfowed lands of the valley.
Those people could all have
found homes and employment
within a few miles of the scene
of disaster. To be sure this
was convenient method of
keeping plantation forces to-
gether, but that is a private
affair and every landlord was
competent to look out for his
own, and would have done so if
this unwise and pauperizing aid
had not been extended, Elk.
