A Queen
OF Beauty
By F. A. mitchell

Madeline HOLSTER stood before the
glass, startled. a frightened, express
sion on her face. One would suppose
that she saw the reflection of a skele-
ton looking over her shoulder.
Miss HOLSTER had enjoyed the repu.
tation Of being the beauty of the place
in which she lived for ten years. Her
comeliness was remarked upon when
she was fifteen; three years later she
was the acknowledged belle of her So
cial circle, and her fame began to be
spread abroad. She was now twenty
eight and was considered more beauti-
full than ever.
What Miss HOLSTER saw In the mir
ror that appalled, her was tiny crows
foot under her left eye.
Miss HOLSTER sank back on a lounge
and, buried in many pillows. gave her
self up to thought Should she not ac-
cept her fate, marry one Of the men
who wanted her and pass from so
cial belle to wifehood, motherhood?
She shrank from what she considered
the abandonment of sovereignty to &C
cept ordinary humdrum- There were
many men from whom 30 choose, and
there would be no trouble In making a
choice. Clarence Beale had loved her
from the time she came to vomanhood.
He was her favorite Of all her suitors,
and nothing had prevented their mar
rage except that matrimony would
curtail her realm
Madeline arose and stood again be-
fore the glass Since she had stood
there before the sun had passed be-
hind the branch of q tree, and the
light was not so intense. She looked
for the wrinkle, but under the lesser
light 1t was not apparent
A respite-another year at least re
manned to her before abdicating as
queen of beauties. AS soon as her
skin ceased to bear an ordinary light
she would resign her position, marry
and content herself as queen OF home
/ and children. But not yet. No. She
could not yet bear to step down from
a position that was part Of her be-
ing.

before her mirror. The sun was IL

In a lecture on Mechanics In the

institution. In London, Professor O. v.
Boys tried to explain why a whip
cracks. The Scientific American re-
marks that his explanation was only
tentative, and the greatest authorities
on dynamics have been at a loss to
give the reason Briefly, 1t has to do
with the fact that owing to the &C
ton of centrifugal and other forces,
the speed at which the whip travels
through the air is greater and greater
throughout the length of its lash and

the skin.
One thing she did notice-that the

Miss HOLSTER now became panic

she was fearful Of being denied being

EVOLUTION OF THE CHAIR.
Benches Without Backs Served For
Seats In the Middle Ages.


1t seems odd to contemplate that,
with the multitude of chairs to be
found In every home these days, once
upon a time there were no chairs as
we know them In any home. In those
days benches answered the purpose
lily drew up to the table for its meals
In the middle ages they sat on long
benches, which had no support for the
backs, instead OF chairs.
From long ago there were heavy
thrones on which the rulers sat, but
these throne chairs were so heavy that
they could not be easily moved. Later
the benches were given a back. and
still later the chairs as we know them
today were evolved.
1t was not until 1900, in the time of
Charles l., that the average English
man knew of chairs or had them In his
house, according to those who have
made a study of furniture. The first
English chairs were imported from
France. and the native cabjnetmakers
and carpenters made chairs in imita-
ton of these.
In those days the fashion in chairs
changed with the fashion of clothes
When full skirts were the style the
, chairs became wider, SO that milady
and her skirts could be accommodated
on one chair. The difference In the
size of chairs that we have today
made in imitation of old styles, comes
from this difference In clothes.-Lon

CHARGES MADE IN CIRCULAR

My Dear Sir:
Your letter of May 9TH has been

say in regard to the granting of a
permit by the Town Council of the
town of Vaudeville to Bechac and
Mugnier to operate a saloon with

that this is not in the province of
my office. There is no criminal
statute involved. 1t is true that
if this permit was given, as you
say, it was illegally done, but the
criminal court is not your remedy,
but the civil court instead. You
will find this by reading Section S,
of Act 176 of 1898.
AS to YOUR invitation to come to
