Fall "Houscclcanlng" for Faces
By Alicia Hart

IuiI IlOuSCNACulIlHs TUT EuCSS
 If your face is windblown and sunburned because the summer winds have blown against it, and the summer grime has lodged in the pores more than usual. you will appreciate some vigorous means of cleansing 1t. Of course you don't want it to be too vigor- ous. You don't intend to stretch the skin or break down the tissue But it is nice to feel the cleansing agent at work.
 A simple, homemade lotion has complexion secret that is as ef- fective as any that you will find in beauty salon. Mix a tablespoon of cornmeal with a generous amount of cold cream. Don't use cleansing cream. A regular cold cream is needed.
 Place the whole mixture on a large piece of cotton. Cleanse your face with sthis. Sweep down. ward on your neck with long, swift strokes. Use an upward, outer motion on your face. Press gent | ly under your eyes. Let the cot ton meet your hairline. Use cleansing tissues to remove the mixture. Your skin will feel refreshed, young and hopeful again. When the cleansing com bination is entirley removed, ap- ply your powder base or astringent and follow with your usual make- up.
 Cornmeal has unusual cleans ing properties and also possesses a certain magic which makes 1t soothing to dull skins and smooth ing to rough ones.
 There are beauty grains on the market which act in much the same manner.
 Both the beauty grains and the cornmeal are effective for smooth

courage that can be summoned? !? . Still. ..." Now she smiled. You look happy. so Judge Thornton can't be such an ogre"
 The older woman laughed. "He isn't. He's great person. You score high with him whether you know 1t or not. He admires you a lot. But he had too much pride to re- lent. You see. he's been homesick for Jack .... he's been wanting him rather dreadfully"
 Have they made up?" Sue asked.
 "Everything's all right. Jacks name will go back on the door again."
 Thornton, Curtis and Thornton" Sue said it softly. Tt makes a much nicer name when it's round ed out, doesn't it?" But the older Mrs Thornton wasn't through speaking. You see, Sue, life is made up of things that we have to dc whether we want to do them or not. When a woman loves man she'll pocket her pride. =" T know, Sue nodded. "Women make most of the sacrifices. .or they wouldn'e be made. I've learned that already. I'll go down with you now. After all, live been wanting everybody to make up, only my father is so splendid and I can't forget how Jacks father tried to send him to prison."
 |. The older woman didn't answer But Sue caught sudden glint of amusement in her eyes.
 Are you so sure that women make all the sacrifices. Sue?" she asked "Oh, no, Pm not thinking of the things Jack gave up when he married you. that wasn't a sacrifice. ;. exactly. There are other types of sacrifices. Does Jack ever mention his mother?"
 "She died while he was away at a military academy. He never knew her very we'll"
 His father did some sacrificing. It wasn't happy marriage. He's suffered lot, too. Everyone has, I guess, if people only knew"
 Sue was powdering her nose. She turned aid watched the wo- man as she spoye. So Miss Parsons ...after all. to Sue she would al- ways carry that title. was find ing satisfaction in believing that she was really doing something romantic to Judge Thornton's life. Maybe she was. ...
 Sue went downstairs met Judge Thornton, and tried to believe that he meant the warmth that touched his voice and the friendliness of his handclasp. If she could only be- lieve that he wanted to have her friendship. . not because 1t was his duty to be nice to his sons
 She didn't have long to think about it. The doorbell rang again. At sight of two familiar faces at the door, Sue gasped. All of sud den all of the complications were doubled.

YOUR
 CHILDREN
R!ssz !. ~ ss H sssx:sk iesSI
By Dive Robsrts Barton

Twas almost through school be- fore the free text book system went into effect.
 Since then I have wished . hun- dred times or more that the board had waited another year or two before voting for free books. Be- cause now when I go to look up something in elementary chemis- try I would have the book used for so long. When I am after a German phrase from that little volume, "Aus dem Leben eines Taugenichts," there is nothing in its place in the bookcase. My first Latin dictionary is conpicuous by it's absence, and the other day would have given much possessed to be able to prove to friend that I was right about a proposition sin plane geometry.
 I have Latin books here, also other books of various kinds and varieties that have been collected, as books will, through various members of the family. But they are not my books. I knew my books. I hated to give them back into circulation when each year was over. 1 looked upon them as mine, and why should part with them?
 There is a point here. I believe |I looked upon those books as my own particular property because I had gotten the habit always at the beginning of each term before that. had had to buy my own, or rather my parents did it for me. Then they became my beloved pos- sessions. I never liked school, but I always loved books, any books.
 I wonder, however, If children to-day feel this way? There is something impersonal about a book that wears a heavy brown paper jacket with the words in black type, This book is the prop erty of the 10th Ward School" and so forth. It belongs to everybody and so to nobody. It ceases to be useful to a particular pupil after he has passed" beyond it. He has no reference--nothing to turn back to-nothing with cartoons on its fyleaf, or scribbled notes on it's margins.
 The free book system is an ex- cellent thing--a necessary thing a blessing-everything that can possibly be said of 1t. No one can dispute that.
 There would be many children who never could have an educa- ton if tax money were not used to provide the materials of learning. Besides there are other arguments in its favor--no lost days waiting until Dad gets paid before I can get speller."
 But sometimes I think that where parents can manage it with out too much trouble or expense, acquiring a duplicate set of school books would be well worth while, not only for the present but for the future.

FRENCH WEDDINGS
 SHOW INCREASE

Paris-(UP)-The number of weddings in France during the first three months of 1892 shows an ir1- crease over the corresponding period for 1881, the births dimirl-. ished by about the same ratio. The fact that the divorce courts granted over a thousand more de- crees during January, February and March, 1882, than in the came months for 1881, is not regarded as having had any bearing upon the anomaly.
 The official statistics just pub lished are:

July saw improvement. The
change was in sentiment rather
than in actual business, but there
was enough favorable happenings
to justify the idea that June had
seen the irreducible minimum J"
So states Frank Greene, editor of
Bradstreet's and compiler of the
map of the nations economic con-
dition in the Nations Business, .
magazine recently received at the
FL Centro Chamber of Commerce.
The chamber staff states that
still no white spots appear on the
map but that several black, Or
| quiet business spots, have been
changed to gray, indicating fair
business. This is particularly true
in the New England states and
along the Atlantic seaboard.
I'm the latter part of July" :"
Greene states, the stock market
seemed to awaken, the advance in
commodity prices broadened, and
an almost magical change in the
business atmosphere was appar-
ent." He continues, I'm a few in
duStrleS, notably shoe manufactur-
ing, fall orders helped speed up
output. Except where strikes pre-
vailed, clothing manufacture show
ed more life which, in turn, helped
some woolen mills. Retail buying
was largely made up of summer
wear on which prices were cut.
Taking industry as a whole, the
smaller units and secondary lines
seemed to sense favoring breezes
before the larger units, which did
not seem to share materially in
this change. All in all, it may be
said that business sentiment, and
to some extent actual business, is
better-not a great deal perhaps
