The Face and the Emotions.

Habitual worry shows itself in the
action of the facial nerve-the nerve
Of expression, as anatomists call it
producing lines which in course of
time become permanent. The same
is true of many other emotions and
states of mind; and those which are
dominant in the life Of the individual
will ere long produce permanent
changes in the face. The secret of the
beauty which age cannot wither is to
possess a beautiful mind, chin-straps
and depilatories and electricity and
massage and cosmetics are poor make
shifts compared with this.

ENGINE BELLS SHOULD BE RUNG
Railroad Commissioners Make This
Recommendation.

The Vermont state board OF railroad
commissioners have made a report upon
the accident which caused the death OF
w. A. Coleman at the local freight yard
February IA, l9Os. A public lnyestiga.
ton into the cause OF this accident held
at Battleboro April , revealed the fol
lowing facts:
On February II, 1905, w. a. Coleman
was fireman on the locomotive drawing
the regular, northbound freight train OF
the Central Vermont railway company
from New London, Conn, to White River
Junction, Vt. When that train reached
Brattleboro, it took the siding TO allow
the regular southbound passenger train,
known as mo. - to pass 1t, Mr.. Cole
man improved that opportunity to 90 TO
the engine house to procure lire hook
which he needed on the locomotive. lie
went to the engine house, procured the
fire hook, and started south, walking
along the side OF the main line towards
his locomotive. While so walking, light
engine bound for South Vernon passed
him on the main line. This engine was
then being followed by the local shifting
engine, drawing one coal car, on the north
end OF which was riding the yardmaster
and on the south end two brakemen. The
shifting engine was backing south, NOV
ing very slowly and following said light
engine at distance OF six or seven car
lengths. After the light engine passed
Mr.. Coleman, he stepped between the rails
of the main line from the west side OF
the track,-the freman's side. At that
time, the yardmaster noticed this and
Immediately signalled the engineer to
stop. which he did, not until the SHIFT,
ing engine struck Mr.. Coleman and passed
over him nearly its whole length. lie
was Immediately taken from beneath the
engine and died in few minutes, his
neck having been broken.
The shifting engine had been moving
about onefourth of a mile through the
ward, on the main line, when MIR. Cole.
man stepped between the rails. The bell
on the shifting engine was not ringing.
IL seems that it is not the custom TO ring
the bell as the engine moves through the
ward. even for such long distance. The
probability is that if the bell had been
ringing. Mr.. Coleman would have heard
it, for he was not more than 200 feet
in front of the shifting engine when he
stepped between the rails OF the main
line. This requirement is especially neees-
sary in ward like that at Brattleboro
where pedestrians, including railway EN-
ployees, are accustomed frequently to be
walking along the tracks.
Dated at Bratt1eboro, this second DAY

ALICE IN WONDERLAND.
Delightful Children's Entertainment to
Be Given in the Auditorium Tomorrow.

Alice in Wonderland will entertain the
members and friends of the Bratteboro
Woman's club at their annual Children $
day tomorrow afternoon at go in tne
auditorium. The play is taken from the
original beloved dream story OF Lewis
Carroll and has been put INTO acting
shape for children by Mrs. Burton liar,
rison. The curtain rises upon WOOD
in Wonderland with the sleeping Ahce
surrounded by band OF fairies who JON
in a chorus and dance. After uniting
their wands over the sl2eping child, the
fairies disappear and Alice arises as II
from fall. Now the wonders OF the dream
world appear. White Rabbit, Cheshire
Cat and the Duchess engage Alice $ atten-
ton until fanfare OF trumpets an
nounces the approach of the King ana
Queen of Hearts and their train OF
ladies, gardeners, courtlers and guards:
The Queen, indignant at the presence OF
Alice near her court, orders her head TO
be cut off. After spirited dialogue the
scene closes with dance OF the court
train around Alice.
The Mad Tea Party occupies the next
act. At a long tea table sit the March
Hare and Halter with tho Dormouse
asleep between them. Alice enters and
seats herself in large chair at one END
of the table. Lively exchanges of riddles
follow. In the midst of the tea-party
the Gryphon and Mock Turtle enter arm
in arm. After their surprise at seeing
such an odd creature as Alice is over the
Mock Turtle relates his history which
concludes with song and dance. Inns
scene closes with the appearance OF Whlte
Rabbit who announces that he mas ORDERS
from the Queen of Hearts to summon al
the feasters to the great trlal OF !he
Knaye of Hearts case about the stolen
tarts. .,
The last act sets forth the famous trial.
The court train is assembled in hall in
the Queens palace. The. King orders a
Jury to be summoned. The accusation Is
read as follows:
aThe Queen of Hearts, she made some
tarts
All on a summers day;
The Knave of Hearts, he stole those
tarts,
And took them quite away"
Witnesses are called. Sharp, questions
and clever cross-eXamlnatlon 1olloW: ousI
when it appears that the knave OF Hearts
Is to be executed or forced to marry the
Duchess, White Rabbit steps up to say
that he is the culprit; he stole the tarts
and he will wed the Duchess. Here Alice
again provokes the indignation OF the
0neen who cries out, "Off with her head!
Seize her, guards!" whereupon Alice re-
forts defiantly, Come on! Who's afraid.
You're nothing but ,paltry. pack OF
cards!" The court breaks up in contus,
ion. The scene changes and Alice is found
asleep again with the fairies about, her as
before. The spell is broken and Alice
awakes to find her strange adventures
only dream.
All who see the performance at the au-
ditorium tomorrow afternoon will be sur
prised at the dramatic ability displayed by
the 40 hoys and girls of the cast.

c eli problem, says the local correspond.
emf of the Springfield Republican. Some
time ago the practice of smoking cgarets
became noticeably prevalent among the
school boys, particularly in the grades,
and the school officials brought the, fact
TO- the attention of the parents, OF the
children, expecting that thereby the prac-
