over 5000 feet wide and 1000 feet

on the scale Of two miles to the inch
ranges between 81 and 81 dollars to
the square mile. The work is now only
ABOUT three-eighths finished. To date
about 100000 square miles Of the ter
r1tory Of the United States has been
surveyed The work IS going forward
at the rate of nearly $4,000 square
miles a year.
The task of making the topoeraphfc
map Of the United States began in
small way in 1880. In 1882 the prepa-
ration Of a great geologic map of the
country was authorized by congress
The first thing essential to the con-
siderst ton Of such a map was the max
ing Of the corresponding topographic
surveys. In 1883 the topograDhic
branch Of the geological survey was
reorganized and extended The first
work done was on a scale of about
four miles to the inch. Since that
time. appropriations have been in
creased, and the work has been car
ried forward more rapidly and more
efficiently.
Requires Careful Editing.
After the author Of a man has n-e-
pared his work, like the author Of a
text 81 may be that he has ornfffed
important data, and that his manu-
script is more or less Indefinite and
ambiguous. Things which are entirely
clear to him in his map language NAV
not be so clear to others. NOreove-
the map output Of the geological s1ir-
vey is very large, and there is a con
sequent necessity of eliminating Der-
sonal chara cteristics from the mans OF
each topOgrapher. in order that they
may have uniformity and system. as
well as cIearness and accuracy.
Tt is therefore necessary that there
should be a topographic editor. He

DAYTIME Jewelry.

When lace makes a home among us
pearls follow. The picturesque Charlotte
Corday kerchief and the directoire jabot
have their most beautiful compliments IN
the closely fitting necklace of pearls and
the long double ro~e of the gems. one
encircling the throat and the other fes-
looming the corsage and falling below
the waist.
Nothing, Of course, equals the exquisite
quality of pearls, but there is a vast
amount OF effect in the cloudy amber
bead necklace worn with a pin-spotted
muslin corsage, and there are those who
aver that the clear and much darker
amber is a doughty rival, as the women
of the middle of last century knew full
well.
Amber is at present a very highly
favored item Of daytime jeweiry. 1t is
seen at the hitpin head, globular in
shape and of a medium size, and is
the ornament of combs and prongs.
Magical properties were believed to
be ascribable 20 amber in former times,
and there were wearers of the beads
who vowed they were saved by them
from that tedious and troublesome COM
plant, hay f-ver. The new delight found
in amber is traceable not to any &C.
cult connection. but to the fashion for
every shade of gold, through all the
graduation from the most pallid to the
most radiant tint.

HON. to Keep Face

National Hygienic Review

The way to ward off old age is not 10
fear it, not to allow ones self TO be
oppressed 6y the dread of advancing
years. Use only legitimate preyentives
and avoid trying experiments with
preparations not Endorsed by physi-
clans. An entirely safe and very eff
fective way TO keep the complexion
young-looking and beautiful is to ap-
ply ordinary mercoliZed wax at bed
time, using ii like cold cream, washing
1t of in the morning. This gradually
nbsorbs the withered, faded cuticle
which is replaced by the more youth
full, pink-tinted underskin. One ounce
of this wax, 10 be had at any drug
store, is enough to completely rejuve-
nate a worn-o.t complexion.
Wrinkles and fiabbiness of cheek and
chin, the first signs of advancing age,
may be lessened by a simple. harmless

ounce of powdered saXolite in a half
pint witch hazel 1t is used as a face
