BROUGHT THEM ALL FORWARD.
Husky Bridegroom Worked Bluff on
Occupants of Car.

AT village station a husky young
man and robust young woman board
ed the train, and they had only taken
their seats when his arm fell around
her waist and her head fell on his
shoulder. The other passengers became
interested at once, and general grin
passed around the coach. Some pepper
mint drops, carried in the young mans
vest pocket, and doled out one by one.
had been eaten before he caught on
to the smiles. Then he stood up and
said:
Ladies and gentlemen. this is my
wife. We were married an hour ago.
She is bride. We married for love. I
nam t no pictur' and she hain't purity,
out that's our business. Your congrat-
ulations are now in order"
The smiles faded away, and no one
moved-no one but the husky hus-
band. He slowly removed his coat,
rolled back his sleeves, and con-
tinued:
There's IL men in this here car
and want every burned one of them
to come forward and salute the bride.
It's her due, and it's got to be done
or you will have to settle with me.
Nancy, get ready to be saluted''
Nancy rose up with a blush, and
those IL men, one after another, left
their seats and came forward, and
gave her brotherly kiss and wished
her all happiness. When the circus
was over the husband rolled down
his sleeves, resumed his seat, and sat
down with the remark:
1.-THE bride now having been saluted
according to custom, will now under
go further hugging. and if any galoot
sees anything in it to smile al, he will

WHEN SHE REMOVED HIS BOOTS.
Wife Of Clubman Was Not Altogether
SeIf-Sacrificing.

Everybody in London" said Fl. K.
Adair, the western detective, "is wear
ing now, like us, the semi-total pledge
button. The pledge is, you know, an
oath only to drink at lunch and din
ner.
In London I heard Lord Roberts,
the head of the English movement,
make speech at a banquet
"One thing the little old soldier said
was that wives could without fear al
low semi-total husbands to go to the
club. A semi-total husband would
always come home from the club
early.
Thanks also to the. semi-total
pledge, wives wouldn't have to look
after their husbands so vigilantly.
There was an old soldier who said
to friend:
My wife docs look after me we'll.
She even takes off my boots for me-
When you come home from the
cl1b?' the friend asked
No-when want to go there"

Has a Bad Complexion.
Dear Madame Alta

Lear MdQdl1 Alta.
Am a constant reader of THE EVE
MING STAR and would like your ad-
vice on the following: The pores of my
face are very large, while the skin is
rough and red, especially around the
n~ostrils and chin. 1 am also troubled
with pimples and blackheads. Please
give me an effectual but inexpensive
remedy. TROUBLED.
Procure a camels hair face brush at
once and use it every night to scrub
your face, using olive oil soap and hot
water. Rinse with lukewarm water
and rub into the skin a good cold
cream. Do not use it sparingly, and In
the morning scrub the face again with
soap and hot water. Rinse this time
with old water to contract the pores.
You will find that the use of the brush
will contract the pores and cause them
to become normal in size. 1t will also
rid your face of the blackheads and
pimples.

Nine. Alta Suggests Simple and
Eficacious Home
Recipe.

Not a few women find the need of a
cooling, soothing balm during the
winter when the complexion is exposed
to wind and all sorts of weather condi-
lions. There are some creams and skin
foods that will not agree with all com
plexions, but there are few skin COM
plants that will not yield to the use of
cucumber milk, which Is easy to obtain
and perfectly harmless to the most sen
sitive complexion.
Here is a recipe for cucumber milk
that can easily be prepared at home:
Oil of sweet almonds, 4 ounces.
Fresh cucumber juice, 10 C.
Essence of cucumbers, 8 nee
White CASTLE soap (powdered), "
ounce
Tincture of benzoin, % dram.
To obtain the juice of the cucumbers
slice them very thin, skin and all. cover
with a very little water and let cook
slowly until soft and mushy; press
through a fine sieve. then strain through
a c~heesecloth. To make the essence,
take equal parts of pure alcohol and
the Juice; put the essence and soap in
a jar, the larger the better, as the mix
ture requires much shaking; after the
soap is fully dissolved add the cucum-
Der juice. Shake until thoroughly
mixed, then pour into a bowl and add
the oil and benzoin. stirring until you
have a creamy substance. Put into
small bottles. tightly corked and keep
In a dark place. 1t does not require a
preservative other than the alcohol and
benZoin.

THE MATTER VIEWED FAIRLY.

The question propounded by your
enterprising paper is as difficult of
solution as it is interesting to my
sex.
Difficult, because there is nc arbi-
trary standard in women's dress,
and also because the difference IN
the size of population naturally Il
tiers. Assuming there are fifty thou
sand ome in Newark, it is only
fair to take a corresponding num-
Der in New York. This granted, l
unhesitatingly assert that Newark
women dress better than do their
sisters across the Hudson.
Nor is this strange. Newark's
stores are equal, except in number.
to those of the metropolis, while
their prices, for the same goods, are
much more reasonable.
Better dressed does not neces-
sarily mean more expensively
dressed; but more tremendously
dressed. 1t is not only q matter of
selection, but the manner OF wear
ing ones apparel. Newark women
excel in this. We have no painful
