The lynching of the negro Lacey was a most orderly affair. fl such an affair can properly be said 10 be or derly in any sense. There was no drinking, carousing or rowdyism, and the men were sadly quiet, serious and in deadly earnest, determined tn avenge the insult and make an ex- ample Of what may be expected by any who commit or attempt to com nit this henious crime, such terri- ble example will continue to be mada just so long as brute passion uncon- trolled stalks abroad, and no amount of preaching will prevent it. The affair is greatly regretted here, and every effort was made to prevent it, bnt to no avail.

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

Do you ever listen to your own voice?
II you don't, please let me suggest it
as a valuable little experiment to make
occasionally.
What would we think of girl-or a
man either, for that matter-who never
looked in the glass? But how many peo
pie never in all the time Of their lives
hold up the mirror of self-inspection to
their voices!
The girl who spends an hour or two
daily before her mirror amounting her
face with lotions and creams and powders
and soliciteusly squirting at it from this
angle and that probably doesn't think of
giving ten minutes a year to inspecting
and attempting TO improve that other
great tool of her personality, her voice.
Gladstone once said. "Ninety-nine men
out Of every hundred never rise above
mediocrity because the training of the
voice is entirely neglected and consid-
cred Of no Importance
That is a sentence which not only the
| man who wants to rise above mediocrity,
but also the man or woman who wants to
be a pleasing and attractive friend, will
do well to consider.
The voice is a wonderful instrument.
By the person who knows how to play
more than one or two monotonous notes
| upon it 1t can be made veritable Ham
lin piper's pipe to charm people into do
| ing what he wants them to.
Our late lamented 0. Henry has
witty little story about two men, one OF
whom was, to use his own expression, "a
gargoyle with a silver tongue" and the
| other-to quote again-"a ringer for
Hermes. but with a voice that sounded
| like leak dripping in a tin dishpan at
| the head of the bed when you want to go
| to sleep" These two men went after the
same woman. The "gargoyle with the
| silver voice got her.
| Like many of o. Henry's tales. this one
| has a kernel of suggestion as well as a
| bushel of laughter
OF course, we can't all have silver
| tongues. but we can all have pleasant
| and we'll modulated voices. And the first
step to this end is to listen to them. l
don't mean to sit down and talk so as to
| hear our own voices. We wouldn't really
| get any idea of them that way The way
| to hear ones voice as it naturally is is
| to suddenly listen to it in the midst of
| conversation and compare it with other
peoples
| Do we speak too loud?
Do we talk always In one or two mo-
| notonous keys and thus lose the music
of voice change?
| Do we talk too rapidly?
| Do we pitch our voices from our heads
| or threats instead of from the diaphragm,
| as we really should?
| These are some questions for us to
| ask ourselves in front of the mirror OF
voice inspection.
And, l trust to answer by an effort at
| Improvement.

Concerning the Toilet.

The complaint that powder rubs off
can be overcome with the exercise OF a
little extra care In the application of
this first aid to beauty.
We hear SO much about the injurious
effects OF cosmetics that the woman
who hearkens to well meant but III
spent advice turns to her powder box
with fear and trembling. There is no
need for this parsilnony in the use of
what is. in fact, q. protection and a
supplement to good, clear. healthy
skin. This is only true. however. when
absolutely fresh powder is used and
when all traces of it are removed upon
and when stale has an irritating
rather than a soothing effect. Pure
rice powder kept in a closed box with
a sachet bag, or a stick of orris root is
fragrant and harmless.
Dry skins easily shed powder For
this reason 1t is better to use a founda :
ton of teaspoonfu of glycerin TO q
half pint of rose water. Apply the
lotion and dry off quickly. then see
that the powder is evenly distributed
Liquid powders, when pure, are
strongly recommended for some skins
Under the evening lights they give a
velvet transparency to the skin. be-
sides which they have the advantage OF
not rubbing off easily. Extreme care
should be used in their application &c
see that no white patches show. S will
be the case if carelessly applied A
good liquid powder is made by slowly
pouring dram of glycerin over an
ounce of oxide of zinc to make a
smooth paste. Four ounces of rose
water are then added slowly. and lastly
fifteen drops of essence of rose. Bottle
and shake we'll before applying the
lotion to the skin.

to ward off the pinching fingers of old
Jack Frost, who would be infinitely dis
couraged by a look into some of the shop
windows. One tan-colored model had a

green. all of the same material. Black

A Mothers Advice.

A mother who has discovered a cure
for quarreling children wants to pass 1t
along to other mothers at a loss to stop
the sharp words and peevishness passed
among their little ones When quarrels
become too frequent and complaints come
thick and fast she tries separation. She
sends one child to spend the day with al
aunt in another neighborhood, gives q
second permission to visit playmate
and keeps another busy at home. Wher
the little reunion occurs all three ar.
happy to see one another again, eager t.
tell of the things that happened while
the others were away and more tolerant
of one another's faults. Children tire o.
things easily, so that a change of en-
vironment is needed to set them right.
