ENGLISHWOMAN'S BEAUTY.
Some Ways In Which She Makes and
Retains Il.

Some Ways In Which She Makes and
Retains It.
The eyes Of the Englishwoman look
young She knows how to make her
eyes shine like stars by the use of a
little pure boraX dissolved in warm wa
ter. 1t takes out the dust and helps
the sight
She rests her eyes frequently. She
never sits and gazes sideways upon an
object.
The evergreen matron of London
when she looks at you has a way Of
gazing right through you. Her brows
are specially effective in this long,
lovely gaze. They are dark. glossy and
heavy. and they are perfectly nodded.
This is because they are painted ev-
cry night with simple oily lotion
which makes them grow. and they are
brushed every morning with a little
eyebrow brush. which encourages the
roots Of the hair to send forth little
rOOtlets,
The teeth of the Englishwoman be
long to herself alone. No other coun-
try has teeth to compare with them.
They are sound and white The Eng
lishwOman eats cereals. Like the Irish
and the Scottish woman, she thinks
them necessary to at least one meal.
And she chews them, too. for she
knows that mastication Is necessary
to good digestion.
The Englishwoman, who Is holding
the worlds record for keeping young,
has certain things in her favor. and
one is the habit of leisure. From birth
she has been taught to take her time.
The Englishwoman's habits OF
thought help her out in the work OF
keeping young. She has the artless,
dancing eyed expression of the young
girl.
When not busy with social duties
the Englishwoman is pondering on
bright thoughts. The nature of your
thoughts makes great difference in
your face

There are three ways Of obtaining the ruby; by
cuttings made in the hill sides; by boring into Xhe
elefts and seams; and by washing the ruby gravel.
The small stones are of little value, but a perfect
ruby of five carats is worth five or six times as muchN
as a diamond of,the same size and quality.
After all. what is a ruby? The man wise in science
will at once say that it is transparent and eolored
variety of corundum, possessing properties of
double-refraction and electricity; that its color is of
the heart of the solar spectrum, that its name
"rubino" signifies. red. and that the Oriental is the
only true ruby. But all that means so little; it ex-
plains nothing of the beauty and mystery of the
stone. 1t does not tell how that light. caught from
the deepest tint of the hearts blood came to be held
in the tiny crystal; nor how the fable grew Up about
it and the fairy tale clothed it with its charm. Why
try to analyze it? Rather take it as it is, a bit OF
petrihed glory out of the great warm earth, set in
a shining circle of myths and fancies. =
There is very old story, or legend associated
with the ruby. 1t is told by an ancient Latin writer:

she recognized the newcomer. 1t was the wealthy
and noble citizen Euclemion to whom she was in
debt. and a quick little anger stole into her gentle
heart as he gave her a kindly but patronizing greet
ing. She remembered, the past if he did not. Callias
had once done Euclennion a great service, so great
tint in the. warmth of the moment Euclcmion had
said that no favor could be too great in return. Yet
when ,Callias had fallen upon i'll times and gone to
his hIend for. help, Euelemion had lent him money,
it is tkue. but at a high rate of interest. and he had
said, nothing of his former gratitude. 'Canias had
concealed his hurt, but Hcraelea never forgot it.
The home in Athens was given up, the little house
on the hillside taken and the debt gradually paid.
The once warm friends stood only in the relation
Of debtor and creditor. Then came ,Callias' death.

tial standard bearer of the Progress

was attended by a good sized crowd
of business men. Frequent bursts of
approval interrupted the senator who
described what the Progressives stand
for and what the Progressive move

He declared the Progressive move

For Purpose, Dec. 20.

Shanghai, China, Dec. 27.-It is re-
ported that the delegates of the Is
provinces of China proper intend to
meet at Marking on Dec. 2S, to elect
DR.. Sun Vat Sen as President of the
provisional government of the United
Provinces.
An informal meeting between WI
Ting Fang and Tang Shao vi. the
leaders of the revolutionaries and I'm
perialists att the peace conference, took
place, today, when Yuan Shi Kai's
proposal to submit the future form
of government of China to special
National Assembly was considered.
There is reason to believe that while
in principle the revolutionaries agree
to this proposal they think the best
plan will be not to agree to the delay
that Yuan Shi Kai urges, because
they fear that the Imperialists will
take the opportunity to strengthen
their forces and finances.
The arrival of DR.. sun Vat Sen has
impaired an entirely new and forcefu
element into the ranks and councils 81

Hearing Before Commits
sion Opens at Concord,N.H.
Solicitor Rich Of B. & N. Be-
gins Opening Statement.
Points Out Lines Which He Thinks
Should Be Investigated.

Concord, n. H., Dec. 27.-Edgar j.
Rich, general solicitor of the Boston
& Maine Railroad, had not completed
his opening statement at the railroad
rate hearing before the new state
Public Service Commission, when an
adjournment was taken, tonight. The
hearing will resume at 10 o'clock, to-
morrow morning, and Mr.. Rich ex-
poets to occupy the greater part of
the day. The commission, acting un-
der instruction from the last Legis-
lature OF investigating railroad rates
in New Hampshire, will report to the
Legislature of 1913 In his opening
Solicitor Rich pointed out the three
lines upon which he believes the in
vestigation should be conducted, as
follows:
First, are the rates as whole on
the Boston & Maine excessive?
Second, is the State of New Hamp-
shire Disseminated against as com
pared with other states through which
the Boston & Maine Railroad runs?
Third is it to be assumed that the
Legislature desires the commission 5
recommendations as to what shall be
done with the restrictive statutes of
1853 and 1889? Has not the time come
to substitute intelligent control by a
commission for the rigid statutory
barrier"
The commission has engaged as spe-
cial counsel for the state during the
hearing Raymond B. Stevens of
Landau and Allen Hollis of Concord.
Legislative acts of 1887 and 1889 al
lowing certain railroad consultations
in New Hampshire provided that rates
of fare and freight rates on the roads
should not be raised above those in
force at the time of the consolidation
In 1908 the State brought suit, al
leging that certain rates had been IL
legally raised by the Boston a. Maine
After prolonged litigation it was in
effect agreed to settle the cases out
of court by reference of the matter
to the Legislature
| A special committee OH the subjec'
was appointed in the House of 1911
| but the final outcome was a reference
| to the then newly created Public Ser
vice Commission with directions TO
1T ito report to the next Legislature
with a schedule of rates for final &C
ton by that body. In the meantime
the existing rates are allowed t
] stand.
