'Why Et (my Face Should be Beautiful
Forty.
Three things enter into beauty—fine
features, color and expreesion. The features,
the forms of brow and nose And ohin, be-
quests, coming often from far ancestors ;
our colors, too, are in the main bequests,
depending on the quality ot tisane and of
blood, the more immediate parents give it;
but expression is very largely our own
affeir. And, even with good features and
the clearest colors, expression is the beet
part of beauty. The play of thought and
will and feeling on the face—of noble
thoughte, firmnees, self, control, and pure,
unselfish, gentle feelings—we oan secure if
we will. Ten years of habit, three years,
•or only one, will affect expression
much. Some one maid that "Every face
might to be beim:Weil at forty," and another
that "No old person has a right to be
mglY, became he has had all his life in
which to grow beautiful." That is to say,
life's opportunities of nobleness, or even
lorty years of opportunity, it well used, are
enough to make so much within that it can-
not help comicg through the medium in
graceful habits of the nerves and masclee.

able it may be, that high play should have
become not so much a mere fashion as an
absolute craze among the so-called smart
people of both sexes. Despite all that has
been done by the Legislature andthe police
for putting down gaming in those forme in
whioh they can take cognizance of it, it is
now premised, under condition's which
preclude the interposition of the
law and its emissaries, to an
extent and in a manner which
world have astonished even the veteran
frequenters of Crookford'e and the Cocoa
Tree in their palmy days. It is true that

than the gambling of the past. In the old
time when gaming.honees, whether in
THE SHAPE OE CLUES OR oRDINARY HELLS,
were tolerated, high plity was for the most
part restricted to men. No doubt a few
notorious women of rank and fashion were
in the habit of playing high at one an.
other's own houses. But nearly all the
gambling was practiced at gaming clubs or
hells, and to them women were not ad-
mitted. In • addition to this, no
man either belonged to a gaming club or
entered a hell except with the full intention
of joining in the diversion there provided
for him, and, whatever his luok might be,
he inourred the rieks to which he was ex.
posed deliberately and of melioe prepenee.
At gaming clubs and hells, too, publicity
generally, it not invariably, insured fair
pley ; and, save in the way of loans from
the proprietary, there was then no credit.
Between the gameetere themeelves every
transaction was a readmmoney one, and
thus, while winners reoeived their gains at
once, losers were cheated in any reckless
attempt that they might be disposed to
make in order to recover themeelyee. In
private gambling all this is changed, and,
with every disadvantage, not a single ad-

one of these tratesparent masks is never at

or when chatting with an acquaintance
during a call, and every two eeconds that

down, me thougta the frayed edge tickled
her nose, as I have no doubt was the case.
This constant tugging at flimsy lace ought

hemce the brightnese of the eye or the fair.

For, to speak nothing bnt the truth, that
dot has never been seen in precisely the spot
intended by the wearer of the veil. It has
a provoking way of slipping its moorings
and dropping into unbecoming positions,
which is never imagined by the personeeeho

saw a girl with two dots on her veil. One
ought to have stuck just at the corner of

woman's tip tilted nose resented the
pressure of the delicate web, and in order
to relieve its irritation those dots became

Tale of a Fiji Cannibal Who Claims to Have
Eaten Iliumah Flesh.
The general curiosity of our entire town
was aroused by the appearance upon our
streete of an individual who was bora upon
one of the Fiji Islands, says the Atlanta
Constitution.
He wore a very red or cardinanoolored
suit of clotbes, knee pants and jecket
trimmed with blaok velvet collar &net cuffs.
Over his shoulder he carried a eloakthat was
tied over the left eboulder and tinder the
right, msde of white ond red flittinel. His
head wee covered with a blouse that fell
down his bank, and still over this a som-
brero. Hie shoes were tied under the
instep with a oninhalf inch wide braid,
that wound around the lege up to the
knees. His general appearance Was very
gaudy.
This native was converted when 23 years
old, and is now 74 years of age. His
father lived to be 130 years of age. His
life has been spent in lecturing on the con -
ditto of his people. He speaks twenty
languages fluently.
When 5 or 6 years old he saw an Indian
woman throw her child to antr000dile that
weighed 1,000 pounds. The animal missed
the child, and the mother caught it as it
ran back to her begging for its life, when
she threw it again.
This time the crocodile struck it with its
claws, tore it into two pines and ate it very
quiekly. She then reported her sots to the
pagan priest, and be blessed her, saying to
her, "Go kin no more."

It best agrees with night,
And so tbie delioious, Boulmtirring smack
mit athwart the darkness and the
syropethetia audience immediately
burst out a -laughing, Jor " all the
world loves a lover," yon know.
It was no mere kiss of the cheek,
tender and dainty in its resound, but a
wholesome witball-my-heart-and soul lip
kiss, with such as intensity of pressure
that would pull a pretty month clean old of
ebape in the effort to "break away." It weS
a kiss that would have made Shakespeare's
premium love heroine turn pea green with
envy, and a kiss that would be possible
only where two hearts were booting in-
tensely as one.—Cincinnati Times•Star.
In the ,Garden.
Newelfork Herald :
Come out into the garden, Maude;
Come out, and watch me make it.
I've got two spades, three pecks of seeds,
Sind a rake with which to rake it.
Come out, and watch with what deft skill
An Irishman I bit's;
And help me sit upon the fence
To watch the man perspire.
Whon'I was young and foolish, Maude,
I used to do that 'work ;
And showed big blisters on my hands
As proudly ase Turk;
But now, although my head is bald,
les twenty tinaes as foxy,
And when the gentle spring time cornea,
T garden it by proxy.
Shanaeiken, the would-be Remain of the

Iwo or three applications of a powerful

not to destroy life. He will nos be sen-
tenced to death, or probably tried. The
Clzar exercises the authority in speoiel
instancee of dispensing with the forms of
trial for politibel crimes, and Shameiken
will nominally be sent io Siberia.

Is a dangerous condition directly due
to depleted or impure blood. » It should
not be allowed to continue, as in its
debility the system is especially liable
to serious attacks of illness. It is re-
markable how beneficial Hood's Sarsa-
parilla is in this enervating state. Pos-
sessing just those elements which the
system needs and readily seizes, this
medicine purifies the blood, and im-
parts a feeling of strength and self-con-
fidence. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the best
remedy for that weakness which pre-
vails at change of season, climate or life.
S rs
believe it is to the use of Hood's
Sarsaparilla that I owe my present
health. In the spring, I got so com-
pletely run down I could not cat or
sleep, and all the dreaded diseases of
life seemed to have a mortgage on my
system. I was obliged to abandon my
work, and after seeking medical treat-
ment and spending over $so for different
preparations, I found myself no better.
Then my wife persuaded me to try a
bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla. Before
the first bottle was gone I began to
amend. I have now used two bottles
and have gained 22 pounds. Can eat
anything without it hurting me; my
dyspepsia and biliousness have gone.
I never felt better in my life." W. V.
EuLows, Lincoln, 111.

"Early last spring I was very much
run down, had nervous headache, felt
miserable and all that. I was » very
much benefited by Hood's Sarsaparilla
and recommend it." MES, J. M. TAY-
LOR, 1119 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, 0.
I was very much 1011 down in health,
had no strength and no inclination to
do anything. I have been taking
Hood' Sarsaparilla and that tired feel-
ing has. left me, my appetite has re-
turned, I am like a new man." Crown-
ony, LATHAM, North Columbus, Ohio.

Man's Inhumanity to Man.
Ragland is very liberal in some diree-
tions, and about as stingy as can be in
other directions. She supports many well
paid sinecures, and on the other hand pnya
beggarly wages for bard work. We clip
these three netragraphs from the some
newspaper. they tell their own story, and
need DO comment:
Her Majesty's tenancy of the Grand
Hotel at Grasse commenced on Satnraset
last, and will continue until Monday, April
20E1a, the rent of the building, stables and
grounds being at the rate of £120 per day,
I see it is stated that the Queen has nothing
sent to Grasse from England, except slime
and linen and her bed. As a matter of fact,
nearly all the furniture of Her Majesty'a
eitting-roora, bedroom and dressing room
has been despatched from Windeor, and nil
the glass and chins and the batterie di
cuisine have been forwarded from England.
Upwards of two hundred packages (rostry
of them of great size) bad reached (ammo
up to Thursday last.
A Liverpoel paper last week contained n
piteous Appeal from ta local clergyman on
behalf of ibe incumbent of it neighboriog
parish, who is saad to be in the greeteta
distress. " Greateet distress" must bo,
indeed, a mild term for this unfortunato
gentleman's plight. His uncalled living"
brings him in 126 a year. He lac,s no
private meane. He is blessed with a
family ; and be is now lying dangerously ,
ill, in went of the oomroon neeessaries of
lite. Soh n case is, indeed, a learning '
shsone and diegrace to the whole Church of
England, which, it may be said without
hesitation, is the only religions community
in the world in which one minister con three
be perishing of starvetion and want while
scores of others are rolling in wealth and
luxury.
Here is a case which scone to me grossly
discreditable to our education/41 system. A
lady has been a National School mistresa
since December, 1852 --over thirty-eight
years. Prior to that she bad been a pupil
teacher. For the lest oineteen years eho
Inis been in charge ot echoole at Weider-
leigh, near Bristol. During that time she
hen increased the merit grant to the eolaool
froin £10 to £40. Lest year, however,
H. M. Inspector advised, on the ground of
age and deafness, that she should apply foe
a pension. This she did ; but, alter a lengthy
correspondence, the penaion was refased,
on the ground that she has not served fon
forty years. At the same time, the teen-
agers' in view of the Tespector's opinion,
insistthat she shall retire at ono°. Thiet
unfortunate lady has never had more than
240 a year, on which she hes brought up et
tanaily. She ia consequently oast upon tho
world, after tiairtenteme years of service,
veithont provieion of any kind, and with no
prospect before her but the workhotem
ahould hope that the parties responeiblo
for euela a result may yet lam some meanie
of avoiding it.
