Of youth. You become a sun worshiper
all at once. You forget that you ever

Lines of Beauty.

Have you ever stopped to think OF
the difference in the lines which come
upon the face? Who minds the pencil
ings of good nature and kindness?
They enhance the charm Of face be
cause they mirror so plainly the soul
behind it, and women who have these
lines don't go to beauty culturists to
have them removed. They scarcely
notice they are there, nor do their
friends think Of them as anything but
beauty marks. 1t is the lines which
come from discomfort and I'll temper
chat are disfiguring. They crease the
brow and drag down the mouth and
encircle the eyes unpleasantly. They
make a woman fly to specialists and
indulge in quantities Of highly recon-
mended creams and lotions.

FREAKS OF THE TIDE.
Ne caIdron of the Spotted Seas and
the Amazon River Bore.

To the ordinary lay mind the tides
along our coast are most puZZling. He
knows that the tides rise and fall
twice in twenty-four hours and that
this depends in some mysterious way
upon the moon. But IL in his travels
he sees a spot along the shore where
there Is no tide he is at loss to &C
count for It.
To be exact. there is only one ocean
in the world where the tides follow the
moon with regularity, and this is the
great Antarctic basin. And the reason
is that there is the only place sweep
Of water Is to be found that Is entirely
uninterrupted by land. The enormous
waves caused by the moons attrac-
ton course round the world south Of
Cape Horn and the Cape OF Good
Hope, with absolutely nothing to break
them. Here in our northern hemisphere
great masses OF land interrupt the
shallowness of the inland seas, cause
them to perform antics which seem
most strange.
The depth of the water has much to
do with the tidal Irregularities. Out in
the open ocean, where the tide is
abnormal-about 5000 fathoms-the
speed OF the waves is amazing. When
the depth decreases to five fathoms
the tide cannot travel more than IF
teen miles an hour. In England, for
example, which is surrounded by mar
row, land broken seas, the result Is
that they get some of the most dan
gerous tidal races and currents to be
found. The most formidable Of these
is the whirlpool between the Islands
Of Jura and Scarba, on the west coast
Of Scotland This is known as the
"Caldron of the Spotted Seas"
There the current runs at times at
the rate of more than twelve miles an
hour, and the force Of heavy tidal
current rushing up to the wide mouth
ed river forms what is called n bore"
A most striking example of this tidal
feature Is often seen on the Amazon.

Mllady's
Mirror
The Egg Treatment.

AS a result perhaps of the constant
hurry and hustle Of modern life and
the nervous strain thereby entailed
many a woman finds that fine lines
and wrinkles are appearing on her
face-"crOw's feet making their I'M
welcome traces noticeable about her
eyes-far earlier than the actual pas
sage of Father Time should warrant
There happens TO be a simple cure
for these tired" wrinkles that many
women are unaware Of-sO homely is
it after the different kinds Of massage,
astringent lotions and such like treat
ments prescribed by the beauty ex-
perts.
Some will laugh at the idea, but
those who have tried it have proved
concluSively that its right to be claim
ed as a "cure" for wrinkles is by no
means unfounded.
The method is as follows: Break a
fresh egg and, removing the yolk, ap-
ply the raw white to the face, painting
1t up around the eyes or wherever the
wrinkles appear with soft caHseS's
hair brush. This should be put on at
night and allowed to dry, when the
white of egg will of itself form into a
fine skin. In the morning this should
be carefully washed off with warm
water
1t will not come Off very easily, so
needs bathing with a small sponge for
some minutes. When the white Of egg
has been entirely removed it will be
noticed that the skin beneath has
frightened up to a considerable ex'
tent
A constant repetition Of this treat.
ment will do wonders for lined faces
while once the cure has been thorough.
ly completed the application of the
white of egg can be continued at in
tervals to keep the skin In firm con.

Green Sunsets.

Green sunsets seen by the Russian
explorers in the polar regions have
been matched in England. Through.
out November and December Of 1888
the sunsets and afterglows were Of
wonderful intensity and varied colors
At Chelsea especially the sun went
down over the Thames amid a blaze
Of unearthly beauty ranging from
deepest red to green, as may be seen
in a series of water color sketches
made at the time and now preserved
in the Chelsea free library. Sir Nor
man Lockyer and other astronomers
attributed these winter sunsets to the
volcanic dust projected by the great
eruption Of Krakatoa, in Java, In the
previous August.

PATHWAY TO DISASTER.
overeonfidence Has Been the Ruin OF
Many a Good Man.

When the skillful general wishes to
capture fort he often tries to find
place that the garrison, sure of its
strength. has eft unguarded. So Wolfe
planned, and so Quebec fell.
Many of those accidentally drowned
are good swimmers. afraid Of nothing
in the water.
Many a trainer, before great inter
collegiate football match. has said that
his. team would surely win-if the
coaches could cure the players OF over
confidence. Overconfidence Is the sure
forerunner of disaster.
Every boy has seen some wretched
drunkard. with his blear eyes and bro
ken gait. his rags and filth, shamelessly
and pitifully pleading for few pen
MES with which to buy a drink No
one can look on that sight, common
as 1t is. without a shudder. Yet there
was a time when every such pltiful be-
ing was free from the desire for drink.
For a time he took his glass In moder-
alton, until suddenly a hidden inherit
ance from some ancestor, hitherto I'M
suspected. awoke in him and drove
him headlong. No one knows whether
that faint is in his blood. Yet every.
where men are saying, "Oh, l shall
never be a drunkard! I can take care

So 1t was that good swimmers
thought as they swan to a point be-
yond their strength. So it was that
the poor wretch thought In the days
when he drank-before it was too late.

Music and Melody.

Music" says Leoncavallo. author Of
81 Pagliacci," as melody and melody
alone. Compositions live and become
immortal because of their melody, and
they die for lack Of 1t. The melody Of
Wagner and Strauss is 'obscured,' but
the observation Is a defect and not a
virtue. Verdi is great because Of his
melody, and all musical greatness is
to be measured by its melody and by
nothing else"

The Navy and the Duke.

The late Duke of Sutherland always
took an interest in the reclamation of
waste lands. For the study of this
subject he took trip to the United
States, accompanied by the famous
war correspondent. W. ii. Russell. who
wrote a book on the journey, under
the title "Hesperothen." Russell used
to tell a story of the duke, who work
ed a coal pit close to Dunrobin, start
ing one day from Dunrobin station
on the mimic railway, which runs Its
brief course to the castle. when a
NAVY exclaimed: There. that's what
