ADVISES GIRLS TO
PAINT And POWDER
St. Louis Pastor Tells Young
Women That Beauty
is a Duty

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 17.-Young women OF
the First NJ. E. Church may now use
the powder puff. likewise the paint
brush and the brown pencil without any
compunctions of conscience. Their pas
tor. the Rev Philip Cone Fletcher, says
1t Is all right
Lecturing on Love. Courtship and
Marriage" he told them that beauty
was a duty and that If they had not
been born that way il was incumbent
upon them to powder and paint and pen
ell themselves beautiful.
III / were a young woman ] would
try TO be winsome," he said. Beauty
is a duty. Young women ought to strive
to appear to the very best advantage,
mentally, physically and morally. II by
the use of the powder pun. the paint
brush and the brow pencil you can make
yourself more winsome. you have my
consent to use them freely. II is all
right TO supplement the works Of God.
To be ugly in an age like this is but
little short of a sin against God and
self"
He said: II take the position that low
ers should be sincere and honest with
each other. Descriptive courtship
means miserable marriage. No
woman can be happy with the man who
has lied 20 win her. No man can honor
and cherish the woman who caught him
as the spider catches the unsuspecting
fly.
There are several fallacies about love
that ought 20 be corrected. One is that
the first love is the only true love. The
first love may be true love, but II
need not be the only true love. Another
fallacy is that love Is blind Love car
see beauties where the world sees de-
formities. 1t is also a mistake to sup
pose that one can love truly but once
It is likewise false that true love never
runs smooth What kind does run
smooth? What kind does run smootr
then? And an error equally as great as
the others is the one which says true
love can never die Love will die II
It is not fed"

for governor by the Democratic state
convention In session here today. No
other name was placed before the
convention. The other candidates
named are:
Lieutenant governor, John A. Dix of

S. Whalen of Monroe; comptroller,
Martin H. Glynn of Albany; attorney
general, Geo. M. Palmer of Schoharie;
treasurer, Julius Hauser of Suffolk.
All were nominated by acclamation.
Just before the convention was called
to order this morning w. ]. Corners.
chairman of the state central COM
mittee, and Charles F. Murphy, the
leader of Tammany Hall, gave out the
slate which had been prepared by the
two factions during the night. The
entire slate was nominated. The
selection by the leaders of John A.
Dix as the candidate for lieutenant
governor came as big surprise, as
it was taken for settled since early
last evening that Francis Burton Har-
rison of New York would be the
choice. 1t is believed that the lead
ers desired to strengthen the ticket
by naming the far up state man.
Chanler is the present lieutenant gov
ernor of the state and was the candi-
date for the position two years ago on
the independence ticket which was
headed by William Randolph Hearst
for governor, Chanler being elected
while Hearst suffered defeat.

Winnipeg, Sept. 16-Forest fires
south of Fort Frances, Ont, on the
United States side are sweeping
toward Canada. Several large islands
in Rainy Lake are enveloped in
flames. The fine large islands owned
by James Harty, proprietor of the
Emory hotel, Fort Frances, was de-
vastated of trees. Grave fears are en-
tretained that the fire may spread to
Hunters island. Mamakan Lake. If

pine will be destroyed. The continu-
ed hot, dry weather with strong winds
adds greatly tq the danger. Unless
the flames are checked in northern
Minnesota, they will sweep across the
border. Lumbermen are anxious.
The fires are still smouldering around
Fort Williams. The smoke is so thick
as to be trying to the eyes. A high
wind like last week would start a
confiagration. Many farmers are on
the eve of abandoning their places.

this action tho prince remarked Miss
Alexander under the French law.
When the princess was seen at her
home today she was intensely indig-
nant at what she characterized as the
,'cruel and cowardly act" of her hus-
band. She said that the charge OF
adultery was baseleSs and that it had
been trumped up by the prince, who
doubtless wanted to rid himself of his
American wife for the purpose of mar
rying another woman or to effect a
reconciliation with his family. Con-
tinuing, the princess declared that she
had supported her husband by her
earnings on the stage this summer
While at Ostend, singing under the
name OF Manitza, she sent remittances
regularly to the prince. who was "idl-
ing away his time at Chamonix and
other resorts" Just before he re-
turned to Paris she sent him a con-
siderable sum of money. When he
returned home August 3, the princess
said, she noticed coldness on his part
and taxed him with it. He thereupon
left the house and told her to call up
on his lawyer If she wanted an ex-
PLANTATION. This the princess did, and
was told that her husband had left her
forever and that he intended to bring
an action for divorce on the ground
of adultery.
He claimed that the amount OF her
last remittance to Chamonix proved
that she had obtained the money dis
honorably The princess replied that
even had this money been obtained
improperly. which she denied. the
prince had not hesitated to accept it.
The princess describes her position
as desperate. She is besieged by
creditors and has not a penny to sup
port herself and baby. Her only hope
Is to secure another engagement on

of the death from Asiatic cholera in

Of infantry. This is the first infor-

At the surgeon generals office no
fear is felt of the disease spreading to
any extent and much less that the
army would suffer seriously If it did.
The disease, the officers say, is easily
prevented by the adoption of the prop
er sanitary precautions. - Secretary
Wright also is of the opinion that no
concern need be felt over the army
suffering from a cholera epidemic.

pertinent from Havana says there is

yellow fever there
