'If "your skin la delicate, reject soap and water entirely during the day. Instead of the morning bath and usual sarubbtng. It is much better to coat the face and neck with a layer of cold cream. This does not mean skin food, but a lighter and more penetrating cream wftlch, will remove all soot, powder and dust. Try butter-milk if you object to cold cream. Allow It to remain on about five minutes and then rub off with a 8o(t linen wash cloth, you will be surprised at the dirt' upon your eloth. " After every rae of ' the cream has been removed. If your skin is not par ticularly sensitive, you can bring a fine glow to the cheeks by using a bit Of Ice In a piece of cheesecloth; this will act a an electric shook. Now ap ply a good clinging powder to every portion . of the exposed cuticle; the idea la to pea-feet the skin without giving one's self the appearance of artificially. The scrubbing with soap and water can be done at night before going to bed, but your face must have a liberal dose of skin food afterward.

Nowadays when a youngster decides to make a living with hia clenched fists he puts on a pair of pil lows -and engages In a preliminary of from three to six rounds with another lad similarly equipped with small featherbeds on his hands. There was nothing like that in Prof. Donovan's debut In the ring, which took place In St. Louis on June 8, I860.

He held the championship until 1883, when he retired. He returned to the ring in U888, however, to fight Jack Dempsey, the "Nonpareil," who was then middleweight champion of the world. Mike was then past forty. and the great crowd of fans who as sembled in Brooklyn to see the affair expected that Dempsey would "make a monkey" of the old veteran. Nothing like that happened.
