Bulgarians and Turks are re-
ported at swords ends. To avert
war among discontented, oppressed
peoples is as impossible as it was
during the French Revolution and
Civil War periods. The people of
every nation are entitled to certain
inalienable rights. To secure such
rights the sword has ever been
mightier than the pen.

TRY BARLEY WATER
DECLARED TO BE INvETERArE
FOE OF WRINKLES.
Missd with Tincturs. Of eenxoin, the
Liquid Is Excellent for Cleaning
the Face - New Skin Food
and Tissue Builder.

It is easier to prevent wrinkles than
to cure them. This is not a new and
original statement, but it. bears repe-
tition because its truth cannot be too
firmly impressed. While woman is
still young and her skin is fresh she
should try to keep it so. To do this,
select applications both cleansing and
healing. OF the many lotions, ETC.,
recommended would suggest pearl
barley water as being most helpful
to flesh that has begun to show lines,
says a writer in the St. Louis Re.
public.
1t is made by putting three ounces
CT best pearl barley in a pint of boil
ing water and simmering slowly until
the liquid has extracted the starch.
This is easily told by the slight thick
ness it will take on. The grain is
then strained out and thrown away
and the liquid used as wash.
If it is found to be gluey when cold
1t must be thinned with clear wa.
ter. In the proper consistency it is
soft, but not sticky. For half a pin!
of the liquid Is drops of tincture OF
benzoin should be added when the
(, Former is Geld.
One cannot do better than. to use
this exclusively for cleaning the face
1t feeds the tissues, does not dry the
skin as clear water may, and is not q
cosmetic. 1t should be applied by

minutes should be removed with o
dry soft cloth.
The throat and neck should receive
the same treatment.
When wrinkles have made their ap-
pearance and are due to illness or
nerve strains, something more in the
nature of tonic as we'll as tissue
builder is required. To make such a
skin food combine so grains of alum,
three-Guarters' of an ounce of almond
milk and three ounces of rose water.
The alum is put into the water and
dissolved before being mingled with
the milk.
The latter is made by blanching al
nonds (about 12 will do) and pound
ing them in mortar with pestle.
After being broken few grains of
graauiated sugar are added, and then
4 gill of rose water. The last ingredi-
eat gees il drop by drop, the pound
ing continuing until the nuts are as
fine as they can be crushed. The
mixture is then covered and stands
over night. when it is strained and
ready for use. There is no better skin
food and lcticn than this milk, if
used alone.
Wien combined with alum it Is
wiped over the face frequently through
the day and remains on at night.
Very heavy wrinkles follow a great
less CT flesh in the face, and should be
treated promptly, or the skin will be-
come hopeless!y sagged. Best for this
is cream made of four ou1ces OF
fresh mutton suet, one and one-quar-
ter ounce OF glycerine, so grains Of
spirits of campLcr, eight grains of
powdered alum, a quarter of dram
! Of powdered Russian isinglass, and a
half an ounce of rose water.
The suet should be melted and
strained, and equal to the glycerin in
! quantity. Should there be more Of
suet, reject the surplus.
Mix these, and put in the alum.
Warm the rose water slightly and
melt the isinglass in it, Combine
these with the first two while they are
still liquid, and then slowly stir in the
tinctures.
Let the mixture stand until it con-
gea!s, and then massage the face night
and morning.

MAKES PLEA FOR SIMPLICITY.
Advice from Worlds Greatest De.
sioner of Women's Costumes.

Worth, the great Paris dressmaker,
has written an article on Dress for
Harper's Bazaar. Among other inter-
esting things he says:
Il dislike immensely the blouse that
is partly cluny and partly valen-
ciennes, with entredeux of point de
venise and interspersed squares of
filet and embroidered cambria. Then,
again, to me it is sacrilege to mate
lace and fur, two exquisite media in
their proper place, but so completely
opposite in character that union be.
tween them is impossible, if harmony
is to be the result.
'Old-fashioned' is accounted a
fearsome phrase by the unthinking,
by those lacking true genius in, dress.
Yet, believe me, it would be vastly
better for the beauty of the world if
women would revert to the spirit of

French Actress Victim Of London Res.
taurant Etiquette.
Some of the French ladies do not
understand at all the prohibition in
London on what they consider dinner
dress. There is one little French
actress now playing in London who, as
one of her first experiences in tlfe
British capital, was taken out to sup
per, and, to do honor to the occasion,
put on her largest and most gorgeous
hat. Her escort looked at it doubt
fully, but hoped for the best. She
was stopped at the sacred portals of a
restaurant, and was asked to remove
her hat.
What this means to lady only
those can tell who have been to matt
nees and have seen the display Of
temper when whole row of ladies in
the stalls have been told that the peo-
pie behind can not see the stage. The
little actress made gallant attempt
to be allowed to retain her headgear.

About Collars.

Amid all the lovely collars of lace.
ribbon and tinsel there looms up a
new style which is most attractive.
The collars are linen affairs worked
with groups of miniature dots, placed
in squares Of four dots, 16, or in tri-
angle or cross effects. With the col
lars will be found the linen tie to
match. 1t is either a single or double
bow, the edges buttonhole stitched
with the same material as the dots,
and also finished with small dots.
These collars are dotted with red,
brown, white, yellow; in fact, every
color imaginable. Many of the lit.
tie bows are shaped like pretty leaves,
while others are prim with only the
bow ends notched and whipped with
thread, but always the collar and bow
will be seen to match.
