CRAIG. | June 11, 1865.—A large party of ex- ! cursionists, including many persons in | official life, left this city today on an extra train for Bull Run, Va., to attend the ceremonies incidental to the dedi- | cation of two monuments erected by the troops of Gen. Gamble on the field of the first and second battles of Bull Run, The train left the depot on Maryland avenue about 6 o'clock this morning Among the passengers were Maj. Ge | Heintzelman, Meigs, Wildox and Parke, Brig. Gens. Benham and Hall, Prof | Henry, Judge Olin, J. M. Brodhead of ! the Treasury and several ladies At Alexandria, several other cars, with additional passengers, including ' Gen. | Slough, were attached to the special train. | At Fairfax Station the party was met by Gen. Gamble and his staff, who at- | tended in person to the transfer of the visitors from the cars to Army ambu- lances provided for the occasion. About 50 ambulances, filled with visitors and provisions, moved with a military escort through Fairfax Court House and Cen- treville to the battlefield, about 18 miles distant, where they arrived about noon. The country through which the ex- cursionists passed still bears the marks of war, notwithstanding the luxuriant vegetation which seems to be striving | to hide the scars and unsightly wrecks made in the last four years. From Alexandria to the battlefield is one wide area of desolation. Fences are ’utur]y swept away. Here and there & dilapidated house shelters a few in- mates. Occasionally a small patch of | corn or wheat 1s seen, but for the most | part the whole face of the country is & dreary waste. A few decrepit houses and leaning | chimneys are all that remain of the | gnce pleasant village of Fairfax Court House, The old-fashioned court house itself is half ruined, its roof going to decay and its walls plerced by rifle | balls. Centreville is even more of a | desert. | . The dedicatory exercises were con- | ducted for the monument, in commemo- | ration of those who feil in the first | battle of Bull Run, by Rev. Dr. Me- Murdy. There was a parade by the 5th | Pennsylvania heavy artillery and a sa- | lute by the 16th Massachusetts battery. | Addresses were delivered by several of the visiting generals. At the monument | commemorating the second battle, the exercises were similar. The party got back to Washington on the special train about 11 o'clock to- night. Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Moods. Some people talk about emotions when they really mean moods. The difference is a question of time and organization. Time and organization are the two big things to take into con- sideration whenever you start in to talk about the psychology of moods and emotions. When you are in an angry mood you are not actually angry; you are merely organized. You are in a state of mind favorable to the feeling of anger which may easily be aroused. If and when this feeling is aroused, you go into action. Your behavior shows what the emotion is. A mood, then, is & psychological con- dition; an emotion is a psychological expression of the condition. oods have a way of hanging over after the emotions themselves have found expression. You can therefore say what a person’s mood 1s if you know what he has just been doing and how he has felt about it. On that point you will have to do a lot of guessing. ‘The weather has a lot to do with moods. That's why we are always talk- ing about it. One's routine of habits also plays a big role. That's why we sometimes say that a man in a sour mood “got up wrong this morning.” “moods of the day” are hangovers from dreams. During the night you do a lot of thinking, all of which has its appro- priate emotional tones. So when you start off on your “mood of the day” you are really continuing to think and ‘act in sccordance with the ideas that be- came organized in your dreams. you can do some According to some psychologists, these | Guess the stores must have let the moths get at these new bathin’ suits.

Care of Fair Skin. ‘The girl or woman who has a deli- cately fair complexion is often the envy of others. But while such a complexion is indeed very lovely, it has its disad- vantages. -From now on I know my mail will contain many letters from readers with sensitive skins who com- plain of having acquired a painful sun- burn with the resultant rough, scaly and even cracked skin. So let's begin early and do what is possible to pre- vent such disfigurements. In the first place, remember that a thin, fair skin should never be e: to the weather without first applying & thin film of cream and powder. This will not only prevent sunburn and freckles, but will keep the skin from becoming too dry and 1 Here is a lotlon which those with a ¢ S delicate skin will find most helpful: Two ounces almond oil, two ounces cologne water, 10 drops - tincture of benzoin. Shake well. Apply to the skin night and morning after cleansing and also apply a thin film before applying foun- dation cream and make-up. A fair skin usually freckles very easily, but these freckles are generally of the type which disappears with the assing of hot weather and fades en- rely ‘Winter. 8o instead of using & drastic freckle bleach to fade these temporary blemishes it is more satisfac- tory to give the skin a semi-weekly bleaching pack, which may be made as follows: One ounce carbonate mag- nesia, two ounces fuller's earth, one teaspoonful peroxide, 10 drops simple tincture of benzoin, sufficient rose water or witch hazel to make a smooth paste. If preferred buttermilk may be used in lace of the witch hazel or rose water. n unn;1 the pack, first cleanse the face with cream or ofl, then apply the pack and allow it to dry on the ski After 20 minutes or more, wash off the pack with tepld water and blot the skin dry. Apply cold cream or lemon cream and gently massage face and neck. Remove excess cream, pat on skin tonic and finish the make-up, if going out of doors. If the pack is used at bedtime apply soothing ofl or tissue cream after- ward and allow it to remain on the skin overnight. . ‘Those whose skins burn easily will be glad to know that the following lo- tion used as a powder base does much to prevent burning. Mix one teaspoon- ful of quinine with 20 teaspoonfuls of almond oil. Shake well and lge'l-‘u:o face and neck. When going ' this lotion is splendid for the back and limbs where they are ex by the bathing suit. Stearate of zinc or talcum powder may be dusted on the limbs after applying the base further to help prevent painful sunburn.

The following is an excellent way of cleaning white gloves: Some white soap should be dissolved in hot milk and the white of an egg and a few drops of am- monia added and the whole whipped to a stiff froth. Then rub the gloves gen- tly with a piece of woolen material dipped in the solution and dry in the open air in the shade. ‘The following is an excellent way of removing scorch marks from a silk blouse: Squeeze the juice out of two onions and add half a pint of vinegar, half an ounce of soap and two ounces of fullers’ earth.

The leav: had gathered there and had been swe, by the winds into a great plle for sev~ eral years. It was what would be called & m.x:g:n heap. Farmer Brown's Boy app! d it presently. He had long, sharp stick and with this he be« gan poking this heap of old leaves. He had no particular purpose. He was just idly running his stick into the hea) while he thought. Presently, it seem to him that that stick went in very easily at a certain point. He began to, open. In just a few minutes he discovered a little tunnel. Then Farmer Brown's Boy went to work in earnest. If there was a tunnel there, it meant that some one had made it; and he had a suspicion that that some one was Starnose. You ses, the tunnel was just the same size as the tunnels that Starnose had made where he had pushed up the sod into little ridges. So Farmer Brown's Boy carefully dug away the rotting leaves and presently he saw that this little tunnel led up from down in the ground. Yes, sir; from down in the ground this little tunnel led up into the great heap of rotted leaves. ‘Then Farmer Brown's Boy began dig- ging in the other direction, and after a while, right in the middle of that big heap he found a little room. It a very little one. In it was a nest made of rotted leaves, and in this were three bables. They were funny little babies. They were very funny little babies. The first thing Farmer Brown's Boy did was to look at their noses. He was looking for the funny little feelers such as Starnose had around his nose. He saw what might be the beginning of these little feelers. Then he was sure there till dry, then wash it off.
