Skin Feeling Natures
Aid to New Complexion
(From Woman's Tribune.)

MercoliZed wax is a natural beau
tifier. By taking off the devitaliZed
surface skin, it merely hastens Ma
lures work. The second skin layer,
brought gradually to view, exhibits
the healthy youthful color produced
by capillary circulation. This because
the capillaries are thus brought near
er the surface; also because the new
skin is unsoiled by dust and dirt.
This wax, to be had at any drug store
ian ounce will do is put on nightly
like cold cream, washed off mornings
with warm water. Its work usually
is completed in from seven to ten
days, long enough not to show too
marked results from day to day, or
cause pain or detention indoors.
A face bath to remove wrinkles,
made by dissolving an ounce of saxo-
lite in a half pint witch hazel, is
another natural beautifier. since its
astringent and tonic effects smooth
out the wrinkles in accordance with
Natures own process.

At The Murray.

1t is with the greatest regret that
the theatre going public see the pres
ent bill at the Murray leave tonight,
as it has been one of the most popu-
lar bills of the season.
Hallen and Fuller in their comedy
sketch by George NJ. Cohan, furnish
most of the laughs. The story deals
with a political fanatic paying the
foolish bets that he has made before
election.
Rogers and Bumstead put on high
class singing act, giving selections
from the popular operas. They both
have excellent voices and are most
fortunate in their selection of songs.
The Hamilton Trio, a young man
and two goodlooking young ladies,
singers and dancers, are one of the
big hits of the bill, while the Som
breros in their novelty act, are the
best of the kind ever seen here.
For next week the Pearl Brothers
and Burns in Vaudeville Vagaries"
will be the feature attraction.

COINS UNDER WEIGHT.
In England It's the Duty of Those Who
Get Thorn to Break Them.

1t is the duty of each loyal British
subject not merely to refuse gold coin
that is under a certain weight. but to
break it.
Every person." the act reads, shall,
by himself or others, cut, break or de-
face such coin rendered to him In pay
ment, and the person rendering the
same shall bear the loss"
But in spite of this act it is risky
business interfering with coins which
you may suspect to be under weight
or spurious. Some months ago Grims-
by woman offered a half sovereign in
payment Of goods to local shopkeep-
er. The latter put the coin in test
ing machine and as 1t broke in two.
refused to take it.
The coin. however, was pronounced
by experts to be perfectly genuine.
and when the case was taken into a
court of law the shopkeeper was order.

TONER
Money, both gold and silver, wears
out at a startling rate. 1t is reckoned
that there Is usually f1oOO00,OOO in
gold coin in England. a very large pro-
portion Of which is locked in the strong
rooms Of banks. Yet of that which is
in active circulation the wastage is so
great that during every twelve months
10000 worth of gold and silver is
rubbed off into fine dust.-Pearson's

Grand Opera.

Joseph F. Sheehan, the celebrated
tenor, does not need any introduce
ton. During the years that he was
the leading tenor of Henry W. Saw
ages companies he gained the reputa-
ton of Americas greatest tenor, and
his praises have been sung in every
part Of the country. During the past
four years at the head of his own
company, he has added to his glory,
and the Sheehan English Opera Com
pany is today known as the finest
opera company singing in the Eng
lish language.
Miss Gladys Caldwell, the eminent
prima donna of the Sheehan Opera
company, stands among the foremost
sopranos in the English language. To
hear this dainty young artist sing,
Il Dreampt 1 Dwelt in Marble Halls
is alone worth coming to hear the
Sheehan Opera company's production
of the Bohemian Girl" The entire
principals. as we'll as the splendidly
trained chorus have been picked for
their special fitness.
The production will be a most
elaborate one, having been built es-
pecially for this organization, and
will be in harmony with the high
calibre of the artists. Mr.. Sheehan
and his entire company of famous
artists will be heard at the Gennett
Theater, Thursday evening. April IS.

WASHING AWAY THE LAND.
Erosion Of the Drainage Basins Of tho
United States.


investigations by the United States
geological survey of the erosion of
numerous drainage basins of the Unit
ed States show that the surface of the
country is being removed at the aver
age rate of about an inch in 160 years.
Though this. amount seems trivial
when spread over the surface of the
country, it becomes stupendous when
considered as total or even in sep
arate drainage basins. The Mississip-
pi river. for instance. carries annually
to the sea 1876, 100000 tons of dissolved
matter and 34O,5Oe,OOO tons of sus
pended matter, and of this total the
Ohio river carries S3,350,O0O tons and
the Missouri river contributes more
than twice as much. The Colorado
river, which has built up for itself a
vast delta, brings down more suspend
ed matter than any other river in the
United States, delivering annually 3S1
tons for each square mile of its drain
age basin or a total of 100. 100000
tons.
The rivers of the United States car
~ to tidewater every year 27O,OO0O00
tons of dissolved matter and 513, 5000
600 tons of suspended matter. This
total Of 7S3,O0O,OOO tons represents
more than 35O.OOO,OOO cubic yards of
rock or 61O,OOO,OOO cubic yards of sur
face soil. II this erosive action had
been concentrated on the isthmus of
Panama at the time Of American oc-
cupation it would have excavated the
prism for an eighty-five foot level ca
nal in about seventy-three days.

A prominent Muncie business man
once remarked that he thought Rich
mond was very slow when compared
Ito their thriving city, that actually
the dry goods stores in Richmond
still hung red flannel and other old
fashioned fabrics in front of their
stores for signs, that the only time
we ever wake up was when we had

ty-five live T. P. AS to go there on
May 3rd, we will dispel any such
illusions from any Muncieites. Come

down for one or two tickets. Any
member of the arrangements commit
ltee will accommodate you.
1t is with sorrow that the many
/ friends in Post G of Charles G. Yelin
of Lafayette, learn of his recent
death. Charles was prominent fig
ure in state and national T. P. A.
conventions. He had wonderful
voice and frequently acted as reading
clerk. He served as state president
one term and was the first chairman
| of the state railroad committee that
did things. In fact, he made the
railroad committee factor in the
! T. P. A. affairs of the state. He trav-
eled for years for Franklin McVeigh
and company, being very successful
as a salesman. His family and many
) friends of Post E have the sympathy
of his many Richmond friends.
At the post meeting held in Febru-
airy the subject of the recent amend
. ment to the National Constitution and
BY Laws.by which members bene-
ficiary is entitled to $1,000, in case
the member is killed while riding on
a first-class passenger train propelled
by steam, was brought up for discus
sion. 1t seemed to be the opinion of
some that a rider" should be put
on the old certificates showing this
or new certificates issued embodying
this clause. A committee was ap-
pointed to investigate this matter and
reported last Saturday night that no
such step was necessary. The men,
Der is protected under the old form
of certificate just the same as the
new one. This we are assured of by
our attorneys and the National office.
However, any member holding one of
the old certificates and is not salts
fed, can have it exchanged for one
, of the new form by sending the old
| Secretary and Treasurer, st. Louis. A
new certificate will be issued without
extra cost.
