There is nothing the matter with

was only for skin troubles" True, it
is for skin troubles, but its great mis-
sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than a generation its delicate

Mrs. BROWNING.

Apropos of the jubilee of the death
of Mrs. Browning, it is not generally
known that the event occasioned one
of the tenderest things her husband
ever wrote. He tended her alone the
night before she died, and wrote OF
her passing in a letter of infinite pa
thos addressed to their mutual friend,
Mrs. Blagdon: Then came what my
heart will keep till 1 see her again,
and Ionger-the most perfect express
sion Of her love to me within my
knowledge of her. Always smiling and
with a face like girls; and in a
few minutes she died in my arms, her
head on my cheek. There was
no lingering or acute pain, nor con-
seriousness of separation. God took
her to himself as you would lift a
sleeping child from dark, uneasy bed
into your arms and the light"

WHERE VIRGINS FELL DOWN
Employer Now Realizes That There
Are Such Things as Grand
mothers of Office Boys.

Outside his own cleverness there is
nothing that so delights Mr. Virgins
as a game of baseball, and when he
gets chance to exploit the two at
the same time, he may be said to be
the happiest man in the world. Hence
1t was that the other day, when little
red-headed Willie Mulligan, his Office
boy, came shifting into his presence
to ask for the afternoon off that he
might attend his grandmother's fu-
neral, Virgins deemed it a mastery
stroke to answer:
why, certainly, Willie. What's
more, my boy, if you'll wait for me I'll
go with you"
"All right, sir" shifted Willie, as he
returned to his desk and waited pa
tiently.
And 10 and behold, poor little Willie
had told the truth, and when he and
Virgins started out together, the lat
ter not only lost one of the best
games of the season, but had to at
tend the obsequies of an old lady in
whom he had no interest whatever
