WHEN A MAN MARRIES.

The new serial story, under the
above title, which will begin in The
Herald in our issue of December IA,
is a most clever piece of fiction and
humor by Mary Roberts Rinehart, the
author of THE Man in Lower Ten. "
the thrilling serial published in these
columns several months ago.
The new story, when a Man Mar
ries" made great hit upon the
stage, where it was played under the
title of 'Saven Days" It is full of
complex situations Jim Wilson is q
young artist who has not been success
full and has rich maiden aunt who
puts up the money for his career
Jimmy has married, but after a
stormy domestic career of one year is
divorced from his young wife, whom
the aunt has never seen. Upon tha
first anniversary of his divorce num-
Der Of his friends assemble at his
home for dinner party, to cheer him
up. After the guests arrive Jimmy
gets telegram announcing that his
aunt Will arrive that evening for a
few hours visit while passing
through the city. Knowing the
caunt's aversion for domestic troubles,
and being dependent upon her bounty,
he induces one of the young ladies in
the party to impersonate his wife dur
ing the aunt's visit. During the
short period she is there the butler is
stricken with small pox and the house
lis quarantined so the aunt cannot get
away. Just before this occurs the
real wife mysteriously visits the house
to induce the butler to come into her
employ, and she also is caught in the
quarantine The situations which
grow out of this involuntary imprison
ment for seven days furnish the pith
of the plot and make most clever
and entertaining story. You should
not miss reading the opening install
Iment <on December IA, and also tell
your friends about it.

A RELIGIOUS Movement.

"Buddhism," says a Berlin Taper,
lis rapidly spreading in Europe. The
number of converts is daily increas-
ing, especially in Germany, England
and Hungary"
The influence of the higher religious
thought OF the Orient was bound, in
these days of rapid travel and aroused
intellectual curiosity, to make itself
felt, and one of the signs of the times
is the growing sale of small popular
epitomes of various phases Of eastern
religious and philosophic thought, and
also translations of the great religious
poems of the Orient.
On this continent, Vedantism, The
osophy and esoteric Buddhism have
become fairly we'll known, and the
work of the new teachers is not sell
dom on broad humanitarian lines;
especially may be cited the education
al work carried on at Point Iona, in
southern California, and in Cuba, by
the Universal Brotherhood and Theo-
sophical society; in which are en-
listed men of wealth and high business
capacity under the leadership Of
Katherine Tingley, woman of great
executive ability. The work done in
training the young for practical life
is notable.

In a certain fortnightly club of young
married folk, where friendly rivalry
exists as to who shall give the most
| novel entertainment, one youthful
housekeeper made her function din
ner in italian style.
The table was decorated to suggest
the flag of Italy. Two broad bands Of
silk, one green, one red. were placed
across the cloth at the ends of the
table. They hung over the edges Of
the board like scarfs. The center
piece consisted of blue, red and white
flowers arranged by florist to repre-
sent the shield which occupies the
central white field.
At the head of the menu was writ
ten the name of the guest to occupy
that particular cover, thus making it a
! guest card also.

Oily COMPLEXION.

One whose complexion is naturally
abnormally oily should not use grease
in any form. 1t should even be elm
mated from articles of diet, for if
taken as food into the stomach it will
be thrown off by the pores If you are
eating gravies, fat meats and pastries
stop them.
For external applications you re-
quire astringents. Try camphor water
lotion, made from one pint of cam
phor water, one-half ounce of glycerin
and one-quarter of an ounce of pow
dered borax. This is to be used freely
as substitute for water. Let it dry
on the skin. Should there be any ap-
pearance Of roughness after using the
lotion for several days it must be dis
continued, for it is too drying to the
surface. Applications can be resumed
when the skin is smooth again.
