based upon the superstition of the Red
men concerning the spirits of their
dead. There is portrayed in this pic
ture an exact duplication of the ghost
dance so prevalent a few years ago
among certain bands of Indians.
Throughout the picture runs a thrill

THE COMING DAY.

There'll come day when we must
make full payment for all the foolish
things We do to-day; and sackcloth
then pcrchance will he our raiment,
and we'll regret the hours We threw
away. We loaf to-day and we shall
leaf tomorrow, hard by the pump or
in the corner store; therell come a
day when we'll look back with sorrow
on wasted hours the hours that come
no more. We say harsh things to
friends who look for kindness, and
bring the tears to loving, patient eyes;
we sc0ld and quarrel in our frettul
blindness, instead OF smiles. we call
up mournful signs. Our friends VIII
tread the path that leads US only to
rest and silence in the grLss-grown
grave; there'll cCme day when
weary. sad and lonely, We'll think OF
them and OF the wounds we gave. In
marts of trade we're prone 10 over
reaching, 10 swell Our roll we cheat
and deal in lies, forgetfuI oft of early
moral teaching, and all the counsel OF
the good and wise. 1t is, alas. all evil
road we travel, that leads at last to
bitterness and woe; there'll come 4
day when gold will seem as gravel,
and VIC shall mourn the sins Of long
ago.

Comple3ions are worn by every
body but are most highly priced by
women who wouldn't be able to keep
house without one-at any rate not
for husband.
A Complexion CONSISTS OF the hide
with which the face is upholstered
It varies in color from purple to ala
baster, but the most valuable com
plexion is shellllke white with pink
trimmings. With complexion OF
this sort assisted by a few deft dim
ples and no brains whatever to back
It np from behind, womap can often
20 forth and accumulate $l1'OOO'OOo
worth of husband.
That is about all compilations are
good for outside of theaters-acqutr'
ing husbands. A fine, delicate com
pIexion is more soothing to look at
than a 100000 painting or a Swiss
sunset, and after a man has gotten
enthusiastic over it he simply has to
have 1t around the house.
Men do not get married OH their
compilations. About all mans COM
nleYion ever does for him is to lose
him his job now and then when ii
becomes too virulent around the nose
Compilations are of two sorts-7per'
manent and detachable. After nat
ural complexion has acquired season
cracks, and the pink has faded out oil
it, something generally has TO be
done in the interests OF art and the
detachable complexion Is used. TINS
comes in boxes and can be put on
with brushes. At night it can be re-
moved with a damp rag. the de-
tachable complexion Is Immensely
popular because it requires no care
and can be removed in few min
utes, whereas the complexion that
comes with the face is harder to keep
in order than a six cylinder racing
car.
A good complexion is a great boon
to the landscape, but unless 1t is IN
stalled and kept in good repair by ma
ture, 1t is pretty hard on the intel
lccl. When a woman has to spend
q couple Of hours day putting on
her complexion, rcadjusting 1t wher'
ever she can find a mirror and keep
ing il from being blown off by the
v int or kissed off by her children
she hasn't much time left TO devote
to tie inaammable questions OF the
day. And when a woman has to take
care 1l complexion and a dog both'
;,osterty seldom needs to pass a vote
