EFFECT OF SMELLING SALTS
Frequent Use Brings Out and Pro
duces 'Wrinkles in the
User's Face.
Smelling salts »ill <«um ^rinkl?*. ir
me u»*“» cuientng silts habitually it w ill
make his fate prematurely old and
wrinkled. This discovery was made,
so the story goes, according to Health,
jy two ladies sitting by a fireside, both
about the same age. but one looking a
great deal older than the other.
The older looking one was constantly
taking oik her bottle of smelling salts
and inhaling It. The other woman no
ticed that when her friend used the
smelling salts all the ugly, unbecoming
lines of her face deepened, and that the
whole expression of her face was deter
mined by the lines made In using the
smelling salts. The pungent odor of the
salts caused her to screw up her face,
and these lines had little by little settled
themselves into a permanent expression,
becoming more and more deep-seated
and Irremediable every time the smell
ing salts was resorted to.
Smelling salts or anything else that
screwE the face day after day into lines
and furrows will finally cause these lines
to l>ecome permanent wrinkles. A
habit of frowning will In a very short
time produce perpendicular lines be
tween the eyes. Lifting the eyebrows
in talking will ruffle tile forehead leav
ing after awhile horizontal wrinkles
across the brow. This is often caused,
too. by squinting the eyes and wrinkling
the forehead when lacing a bright light
or walking in a glaring sunlight. We
see people every day on the streets w ith
their foreheads puckered and contorted
Into a mass of wrinkles that seme day
will become permanently fixed hi the
face
Allowing the mouth habitually to
droop will soon form very unbecoming
lines about it. and will give to the face
a very woe-begon: look.
A person can do a great deal to pre
vent the coming of wrinkles by simply
guarding against scri wing or pucker
ing the face into undesirable lines. There
is no use to massage the face in the
hope of ge tting rid of wrinkles if you
continue to frown, or to scowl every
few minutes. Cold cream and massage
will not he utile to eradicate these lines
unless the habit that is causing them is
stopped. The osteopathic principle of
first removing the cause applies to
wrinkles as well as to many other things.
Remove the cause of the wrinkles and
then massage and cold c ream will un
. doubted I y eradicate the wrinkles.
A TRIO OF SLEEVES.
Something Seasonable for Women
Who Keep Pace with the
Times in Dress.
The modistes said at the beginning o!
the season that there would be nothing
new this winter. Womankind, having
tried every new fancy, had at Iasi given
up the endeavor to have something out
of the ordinary and had settled down to
the routine of wearing the same clothes
that were in vogue last summer, says the
Brooklyn Kagle.
But events have proved that they
were wrong, -"j ste three distinctly u* w
sleeves this morning," announced an ol>
servant woman, "and not less than six I
new kinds of coats. Of collars there are
half a hundred novelties, and of skirts
and their trimmings none can guess the
number of new ones.
"In sleeves,” said she, "I note specially
the puffed sleeve. I see the sleeve that is |
Immense at the shoulder and that is
small at the wrist This sleeve is pre
clsely like the sleeve of ten years ago
except that there is less crinoline in it
It is padded out to make the shoulders
square, and it is slightly stiffened. But
It is not ihe smartly crinolined sleeve
which was the fashion then.
"However," continued she, “we shall
have the puffed sleeve next, all stiffly
crinolined as of yore.
"The second new sleeve is one that is
all in little leaps. There is a puff at the
shoulder, another puff midway , a pufT at
the elbow and a puff at the wrist. Four
big fat puffs make up this sleeve, whith
is shirred between the puffs.
And a third new sleeve is stil! dif
ferent. It has no c ufT. and it is like an
elbow sleeve. It is very wide and very
full at the elbow, falling open like d
great angel sleeve. Inside of this there
is a tight sleeve that exactly matches, so
that the waist has really two sleeves of
its own. a tight sleeve and an angel
sleeve. And very pretty they are worn
together in a handsome gow n on a chilly
day when the air suggests a wrap, anil
two sleeves seem appropriate.
"I don't think." said this woman, who
Is one of the handsomest dressers of (he
season, that l ever saw as many nov
elties—nor did anyone else."
Spice Pudding-.
One half cupful of granulated sugar,
half a cupful of butter, one cupful of
molasses. two teaspoonfuls of ciuna
‘non and one of cloves, one cupful of
boiling water in which has been dis i
solved a teaspoouful of baking pow der.
Beat well together, then add two cup- !
fuls of flour, and lastly four well-beaten
eggs. Steam and when done serve
with egg sauce.—Boston Transcript.
Mildew Stains.
Mildew may sometimes he removed
from white fabrics by covering the spots
with lemon juice and laying in the sun.
Lemon juice w ill not serve fine colored
fabrics, however, and it is said that lard
makes a satisfactory substitute. Hub
the spots well with lard, and lay in the
sun-shine day after day for a week. Wash
in the usual mauuer.—N Y. Post.

Tokio, Jan. 5.—An attack on Vladi

sea, with the simultaneous occupation
of Saghalkn, will form the principal
points in the immediate future for tlie
Japanese forces.
The apparent desire of the Baltic
fleet to linger at Madagasc ar until re
inforced by a third squadron has
caused a change in the plan of cam

Chicago .Inn. 5.—At 0:30 o'clock
Wednesday morning Theodore Thom
as. the noted orchestra leader, died
it his home, Bellevue place, from pneu
monia, with which he was attacked a
few days ago.
Mr. Thomas, who was in his seven
tieth year, was known the world over
us one of tile country's foremost niu
>icians. and was known to the masses
chiefly by reason of his connection
with the famous orchestra which bears
his name, and with which he had been
< onneeted for a number of years.
Born in (lermany. October It, 1815,
joting Thomas got his early musical
training under his father, and at the
age of ten made his debut as a violin
ist. The same year he came to Amer
ica. where for several years lie main
tained himself in New York city, first
as a violinist and later as an orchestra
leader.
In 1867 Mr. Thomas organized the
first Thomas orchestra, which he
maintained until 1888. In 1891 he
moved to Chicago, where he organized
the Chicago orchestra the same year,
and in 1893 became musical director
of the World's Columbian exposition,
a position which he filled with great
credit to himself and the exposition.
At different times Mr. Thomas had
been conductor of the Brooklyn Phil
harmonic society, the New York Phil
harmonic society, director of the Cin
cinnati college of Music, conductor of
the Cincinnati biennial music festivals,
and conductor of the American Opera
Co.
The real beginning in Mr. Thomas’
musical career was through a series
of chamber concerts in New York be
V'een 1855 and 1872. Ip 1864 Mr.
Thomas' first symphony concerts were
given in New York.
In 18S:> Mr. Thomas and his orches
tra made a tour from New York to
San Francisco, appearing at all of the
principal cities. On his return to New
York Mr. Thomas conceived the idea
of a permanent orchestra in that city,
but after seven years of endeavor, he
came to the conclusion that Chicago
would be a better place for his future
work.
On December 15, last year. Orches
tral hall, the permanent home of the
Chicago orchestra, built at a cost of
more than $800,000, was formally ded
icated. It is a monument that bears
witness to the untiring efforts of the
dead musician.

The Worst Storm Since i83S Sweeps
the Metropolis.
Truffle of All f)pM<*ri|>tlon Sa*
liemled nml u Food Fam
ine Threatened.
New York. Jan. 5.—The worst bliz
zard since 1888 swept over New York
Tuesday night and Wednesday morn
ing. Traffic was badly hampered, and
in some instances completely tied up.
All incoming trains are from one to
two hours late.
Elevated trains are running with
difficulty, and surface lines have been
in a standstill for hours. Hundreds
of people were unable to get to work
Wednesday morning and returned to
their homes. The subway was about
the only system in the city working
normally.
A sleet storm Tuesday afternoon was
the harbinger of the blizzard. The
temperature fpll rapidly and the streets
soon became coated with ice. A 50
mile gale blew up from the northwest,
and the wind sent the falling snow
hurrying along in a blinding cloud, pil
ing it up in greac lieairs on the side
walks and car tracks.
A mild food famine has been threat
ened by the non-arrival of milk and
meat trains
Bakers could not deliver bread, and
the same was true of coal dealers. The
various precinct commanders sent out
extra details of policemen during the
night to rescue those* who had suc
cumbed to the cold, while the station
houses were thrown open to the home
less and unfortunate.
Out in the harbor the ferryboat serv
ice was c rippled and the gale blew the
ferryboats about like chips. The early
storm warnings prevented the depart
ure of ships.
