An actor at the Elite theater re cently made a break while on the stage that made the audience laugh and which disconcerted the speaker. The actor was taking the role of the stern un- old guardian and he was in a properly serious mood. His pretty little ward was listening to the sad story of her life as told by the stern old guardian who said: "My child. I have watched over you since your dear mother placed you in my charge when you were a mere child. I have watch-id you grow up from infancy into beau tiful manhood ." The audience, which had listened breathlessly was quick to see the break and several minutes were spent in unrestrained laughter, while the object of the mirth stood and wondered what had happened.

HOW IT HAPPENED. Billy Bay of the Bijou news stand, put in a fairly busy morning today telling his patrons why many of their l hicago morning dailies were scorch ed around the edges.

P. Colorine ia not intended lo color the hair instantly. It works grad ually and must be applied every four or five days. 1K not shampoo your hair oftener than every 10 days. You can continue uaing hair tonic just as you have been doing after you have colored your hair. Always brush yoir hair after taking it down at night, and let it remain as loose as you possibly can. If you feel it must be braided, let it be very loose. Teatro Principal. City of Mexico, Nov. 3. 1905. The Peruna Drug Mfg. Co., Columbus, Ohio, 0. S. A. Gentlemen: Having used your justly celebrated remedy, "La Peruna," for some time, i have the pleasure of informing ybu that I consider It the best tonic I have ever used. It Is a wonderful fortifier of the nerves after exhaustion and It in creases the vitality of the whole body, and in my own case has produced the most complete and permanent restoration. It Is also pleasant to the taste. 1 ... .. do not Ssesltate, therefore, to recommend this remedy to all women as the best mod most pleasant tonic that they can possibly take. Yours very truly, (miss) H. monterde. No matter how long you have been a sufferer from ail ments of the Stomach and Bowels you will be greatly bene fited by taking a short course of the Bitters. In hundreds of cases, probably worse than yours, this has been conclus ively proven. But be sure to start today, as delay only makes a cure so much harder and you suffer longer than rtecessary. For over 56 years HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS has proven to be a sure standby in cases of Sleeplessness, Biliousness, Constipation, Dyspepsia, Heartburn, Bloating, Headache, Cramps, Diarrhoea, General Weakness and Ma laria, Fever and Ague. A trial today will convince you of its great merit. Mr. Jacob Hats, of Bangor, Wis., writes, "I find nothing that does me so much good as Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It always gives satisfaction in stomach troubles." - ' ' ' Mr. T. H. Halloran, of Newport, Ky., writes, "I have taken Hostetter's -Bitters and will always recommend it in cases of stomach trouble." . II. H. It is very easy to develop your arms. This is one of the most satisfactory things a person can do, .is the development is noticeable in such a short time. I do not think it will b? necessary for you to massage them, if you will exercise faithfully every day. It might be well for you to mass age the elbows in orcer to round them out using skin nourisher for this pur pose. To exercise, stand before an open window, noiaing your arms: straight out from the shoulders, palms up, clinch the hands as tight as you can, bringing them over to the should ers, using all the resistance possible in the movement to the shoulder and in taking it back to the first position. Do this 10 or 12 times, and a3 many times during the day. Another effect ive movement is' to place the tips "f your fingers to the back of your head and bring the elbows together in front of your face using the same re sisting force you did before. Lulu If you have trouble with your hands getting so chapped, I would ad vise you to try almond whitener on them. It is a very fine hand wash and is also very - pleasant to use on the face when.it get3 chapped. You can rub in the almond whitener every time you wash your hands, if you wish. Be very careful to rinse off every par ticle of soap from the hands as well las from your face . Irene You undoubtedly have be.en using too many creams and lotions on your skin, as -you say you have been using them. for years without any ap-J parent improvement in the condition of your skin. If you would obtain some pure antiseptic cosmetics that will do! what is claimed for them and then use! them conscientiously every day, I. am' sure you 'will have no difficulty in greatly improving the condition of your skin. But this will require time so you must not expect all the lines to disappear within two it thre weeks. You must purchase or make some good skin nourisher, cleansing cream skin tonic and a harmless vege table powder the", same tint as your skin. With these you need not have blackheads nor .wrinkles. in keeping the face from becoming wriukly. You can use warm applica tions, if you apply cold water after ward, and this should always be done. Cold water is more essential in the care of the skin than any other one thing excepting cold cream. There are Home skins that cannot use even a mild soap und in such cases, I advise skin clean-o. Your skin will be softer, smoother and cleaner, if you wdl cleanse first with princess cold cream before washing. Then wash in waran water, with a drop or two of tincture! of benzoin in the rinse water, if skin is oily, and use the benzoin every cthep day, in that case. Then rins face and dash cold water on with bath spray. See that your face is thoroughly dried. Dolly Hair colorine is a liquid es pecially prepared for fading and grav hair. It colors the hair gradually, giv ing it a natural tint and must be ap plied every four or five days for about a month. By using hair invigorator every night regularly excepting on the day you apply hair coloring, you wU in time attain a beautiful head of hair, which is essential to beauty. Very of ten a fine head of hair detracts atten tion from a plain face, making it ap pear beautiful. H. K. You must use judgment and common sense in caring for your face. I cannot tell you just how long it will be necessary for you to massage your face with skin nourisher daily in ordsr to remove the lines. You must fol low the directions each day until the flesh is firm and smooth. If you would massage with flannel and apply skin tonic three or four times during the day, it would aid in removing the lin-?s and build up the skin wonderfully. Skin nourisher feeds and rebuilds th broken down and decayed tissues and the flannel massage and skin tonic in creases circulation, atding the nour isher lo act and ktjfp the flesh firm and smooth. If you wish to obtain sat isfactory results you must do your work systematically,- with a determi nation to accomplish what you wish. It Reached the Spot. Mr. E.
