WHITENS THE SKIN

The formula given below will
be found wonderfully effective for
whitening the skin, even that of
the darkest complexion. This
mixture, while being absolutely
harmless, has a peculiar chemical
action on the surface of the skin.
bleaching the cuticle and impart-
ing that creamy softness which
is so desirable.
Two ounces of Rose Water:
one ounce Spirits of Cologne; four
ounces Sartoin. Put the Sartoin
in a pint of warm water, then
add the Rose Water and Cologne
Spirits, and after dissolved and
cooled, strain through a fine
cloth. These ingredients are OBJ
tainable from any well stocked
druggist.
Beneficial results are usually
apparent from the first few ap-
plications. This should be used
daily. It makes the use of pow
ders or rouge entirely unneces-
sary.

MRS. MaCNEvIN IS
GRANTED DIVORCE
Suit That Threatened Big Social
Scandal Ends Peacably
in Court
Custody OF Child and Property
Rights Settled Satisfac-
tOriIy by Couple

Gertrude B. MacNevin, the beautiful
young wife of William B. MacNevin,
real estate dealer, secured her divorce
IN Judge Graham's court yesterday, ac-
cording to the peaceful plans agreed
upon by the lawyers for the quarreling
couple. MacNevin made no defense,
and there was no reference to the road
| house episode which played such a
prominent part in the angry statements
made to the press by MacNevin three
months ago. The testimony was brief,
| and confined simply to a beating al
legged 10 have been administered to Mrs.
MacNevin by her husband on August IL.
Gowned becomingly in a neat cos
tune of dark material, Mrs. MacNevin
first took the witness stand. She stated
that on the date mentioned MacNevin
rushed at her. struck her a severe blow
on the back Of the head, bruised her
shoulder and tore off her shirt waist
The effect of the injuries she sustained
on that occasion lasted several weeks,
she said, and for some days she was
confined to her bed. Her husband is
possessed of a vile temper, she testified,
and besides beating her he swore at
her.
Corroborative evidence was given by
Mrs. d. w. Haynes, sister of Mrs. Mac
Nevin. with whom the plaintiff now
lives at 531 Clayton street, San Fran
cisco. and who was present on the oc-
casion of the beating. She added that
MacNevin threatened to kill his wife
and throw her out of the room, and
had with him what looked to the wit
ness to be a pistol.

ASSETS.

With this trial balance, you enter your
marriage life.
At the end OLA year your wifc's ac-
count, and all other special accounts
actually used for the maintenance of
the family, must be transferred to and
charged to profit and loss account. And
after taking an inventory, all accounts
must be balanced and trial balance
made, which will give you a clear in
sight what married life has cost and
how you stand financially. Life insur-
ance premium paid should not be treat
ed as an expense, but as an asset, charg-
ing the company the amount paid.
For family, single entry bookkccp-
ing will be all sufficient, which may be
charged to double entry at any time
during, or at the end of the year, by
merely journalizing and posting from
the single entries. In single entry you
will only need an expenditure and in
come account.

MY EIRST TRIAL RAIANCE.

MY FIRST TRIAL BALANCE.
l remember when | first kept books
This was in the hard-time year 1856
1857. My father gave to my older
brother and myself the little stock OF
goods he had. and said: Now, boys,
you run the store, you provide for the
| family, and all you make above this, is
yours After a year from that time,
! Jan. l. 1857, ! struck my first balance,
and found a clear balance of SI25. 90.
This was our first years net gain. What
a pleasurable event. | rejoice every
time when blink of it. My happiness
drove me to TIT pell-mell to mybrother-
in-law. August Baensch, whom | asked,
Say. what do you think we cleared
last year." You mean lost" ooh
no, we cleared $4,000, which is the
amount we have more than we had last
year. Here look at my trial balance"
Never since was ! so happy and con
tent, although the results showed only
Il small fraction of what made in later
years.
will now give you brief plan of
DOUBLE ENTRY BOOKKEEPING.
Which is most interesting study
and is not hard to master. The repre-
sentative accounts confuse nj first, and
the best way is to have these in mind
as being person, and bear in mind
that you must charge or debit IA person,
OF representative account, what you
give it, and credit a person, or repre-
sentative account. what you get or take
from it. As cash will be the most fire.
quent customer you will have to deal
with, You will soon get on intimate
terms, and say, Mr.. CASH here is ten
dollars. This then, you will debit cash
with. And if this ten dollars was re-
celNed by labor, or salary, you will
credit labor, or salary account, as the
case may be, or income account, if you
keep no other.
You may soon have occasion To say,
Mr.. Cash, please give me ten dollars
This you will credit cash account, and
If you paid out five dollars of this for
coal, and five dollars for chair, you
must charge family expense account
five dollars, and furniture account five
dollars.
Now YOU must not ask Mr.. Cash for
more money, because he would think
you to be either impudent TO ask it.,
when you knew he owed you nothing,
or fool, because YOU did not know
Mr.. Cash was pumped dry, and had
Now let us suppose you are just en-
tering married life, and your capital is
three thousand dollars, of which you
have two thousand in interest bearing
Investment, and one thousand dollars
in cash. AS it is always best in the first
years to rent your dwelling, You pay
one month $ rent in advance, costing
say fifteen dollars. You buy furniture
for four hundred dollars, and pay your
wife, say monthly allowance of fifty
dollars, out of which she is supposed to
pay all ordinary household expenses.
Whatever she saves of this is hers and
what she loses is yours. But as she
knows there will be rumpus if she
taxes you for the loss, she will try Ia
live within her income, and of course,
if she cannot and strikes, as reason
able husband you will arbitrate gladly
TO avoid IA lock out.
If you balance your books at this
stage, YOU will find the following trial
balance:

EASY 70 INSURE DEPOSITS.

Some may want to know how deposit
insurance can be undertaken by the
government.
This can be done easily and speedily
by the passage of an act of congress,
providing for an annual taN on all ma
tional banks of 8 for each 81 900 aver
age deposit in such banks, which the
forty-thrcc years Of our national banks
existence has shown, would have more
than paid all losses, sustained by de
positors in failed banks during these
forty-three years.
