How TO Wh;tsn the Skin.

A simple and very fine lotion for
whitening and cooling the skin and
preserving its freshness after the use
Of creams is the following: Tincture Of
benzoin. one-half ounce: tincture Of va
nilla. two drains; rosewater. triple. one
and one-half pints. Mix the tinctures
and add the water slowly to prevent
precipitation and curdling. 1t should
be q perfect milky emulsion.
As a complexion cleanser there is
nothing better than camphor water.
but do not use it oftener than once a
day II the skin is very dry. Add to a
pint Of camphor, water half an ounce
Of glycerin' and a quarter Of an ounce
Of borax and mix thoroughly. 1t is re-
fining and softening to the skin and is
excellent for dissipating redness that
sometimes af1licts the nose. It should
be applied with absorbent cotton or a
piece Of clean cheesecloth and after
drying on must be washed OF with
soft, clear water.

he worked at making those little me

to produce bad results.
Schneider In his old age set about
naking q music box which was to be
tar more wonderful than any he had
yet produced. 1t was to play a dozen
different melodies. Each melody was
to b a gem and be rendered with a
sweetness, a strength or a rapture
equal to that Of a human being. In
order to accomplish this he must have
the pieces he used played by q
musician whose touch, expression-in-
deed, all those qualities that go to
make up perfection in music-were Of
the highest order.
The old maj found such q one In his

music, from that p~ortraying q cascade

halloween PARTY.

How 20 Have jolly Coed Fun on
Oct. 81.
This jolly Halloween party given last
year may offer suggestions to the
hostess of 1918. On the invitations to
the party were inscribed the following
Jingle done In fantastic lettering:
When you arrive next Tuesday night.
Oh. be prepared to tell =.
The worst adventure. fearful fright,
That ever You hefell'
The rooms were gorgeous with au
tumn leaves. golden yellow pumpkin
jack-o'-lanterns and fantastic black cat
candle shades. An upstairs room which
was occupied had been turned into q
chamber of horrors" The walls were
hung with sheets. then witches. spi-
ders. bats. owls and cats had been cut
from black paper. almost life sized. and
pasted on them: the lights were shad-
ed with a green paper that gave q
most CHASTITY glow. In this weird place
the guests were assembled to relate
their horror tales. A black cat and
her family Of jet black kittens played
about. adding interest to the scene.
As the people entered this spooky
place a ghostly figure held out its hand
in greeting. A white kid glove had
been stuffed with 6ne "a wdust and laid
on ice for hours. q round stick was
fastened to It. which the ghost had
concealed under the flowing sleeve dra-
peries. This Ia an old trick. but onr
that always works well.
When the stories we're about finished
a strange rafting was heard at the
door and two little scarlet clad imps
rushed into the room and chased ev
srybody down to the dining room The
table was lovely with a huge pumpkin
coach drawn by twelve chocolate mice.
which cavorted about the table driven
by a black cat coachman. The coach
was filled with grapes and yellow
chrysanthemums. At each place there
was an individual lantern made from
an orange The bonbon holders were
yellow ice cups attached to pumpkin
wheels drawn by black cats. The host
esq said she had made these from Grape

ing them on cardboard. then touching
them up a bit with black and gold
paint. These wonderful Grape papers
are a great help to hOstesses. as the
napkins come decorated for nearly ev
cry special day in the calendar and
they are very decorative.
A simple but "Halloweeny" menu
was served. consisting Of coffee. crab
meat a In Newburg in the chatting
dishes. cheese. olives. cider. popcorn

apples. ginsercakes and a huge cake
containing the usual mystic symbols

On a stand by the fireplace there was

though he secured some remarkable re-
suits, still there was something In Hill
da's rendition Of every piece that he
could not reproduce mechanically. So
fretted did the girl become that at last
her power Of expression deserted her
and her music, instead Of partaking Of
human feeling, became mechanical like
the airs rendered by the box. Then the
old man began to curse and swear at
her, and ut last, seixing her violin,
brought It down on an iron lathe and
broke It In pieces. Hilda fed to the

 FOR CANCER CURE
Henry Rutherford Gives It to Rockefeller Institute to Seek
 Cause and Treatment

New York, April 29-One of the Iarg- est funds created for cancer research work since 1909, when George Crocker, of California, gave about $1, ,OOO, 900 for that purpose, is that which Henry Rutherford creates in his well, which was filed in the Surrogate's Court yes- terday. MT. Rutherford leaves $20o, 900 to the Rockefeller Institute, the income from which is to be applied for 'investiga tions into the causes and nature of the disease known as cancer and the methods of it's prevention and treatment
 MT. Crocker conveyed his house at No. 1 East 64th street to Columbia University for the same purpose. This property was valued at $1, GOO, 900.
 MT. Rutherford, who died on FTebru- ary 25, was a resident of Grand Isle, Vt. He died at the Hotel Astor. He gives to Charles K. Phipard, of No. tor of his well, $1o0,OoO 'In kind re- to me and as a token of friendship" Steel, of No. 256 West 18th street, and Elizabeth Clark Pearsa1l, of the same address, $5O,00O each, and Thomas W. Rutherford, with an office at No. Is Court street, Brooklyn, receives a sim liar amount. Mary P. Nicholson, of Philadelphia, receives an annuity of $1. 200.
 The residue of the estate Is left to of the testator, and the peti- ton for probate shows that so far the executor has located sixty-eight cous- ins of MT. Rutherford, some of whom live in England.

towns and cities, most of which are mortgaged, would have the larger part of these enormous sewer assessments to pay during their life time and their children after them would also have to be assessed during their natural lives for no benefits received, before the final payment of these bonds reached maturity. The average citt- zen and the poorer class of working people give little attention or thought to the many schemes that are contin- uously being proposed to increase tax es, spend their money, and load them down with enormous debts until it's too late to be remedied.
 People are easily influenced by a good talk, who without looking or in portant questions like thiss often com init themselves to certain policies, and after hearing the other side of the question, hesitate to acknowledge that they were mistaken.
 The representative men of our State more less for five or six months at a time, where the sewage at the pres ent time is discharged into the Con 'necticut River by a system of combin ation sewers, would not enjoy any bet ter health or appetite, or sleep more new and unnecessary sewer systems were installed.
 The cities and towns bordering Long. Island Sound, which have sew cred into the waters of the Sound since their first settlement, were given prior rights to use these waters for sewage purposes long before the oys- ter industries were ever known or heard Of
 Engineers universally say that where there are large bodies of wa ter to sewer into, the present method of disposing of the sewage cannot be improved upon.
 Ut would be 800 per cent. cheaper for the cities and towns bordering Long Island Sound to bond themselves and purchase all the oyster industries in the State, rather than to have this bill passed
