On the other side of the little clearing a strange Deer, as big as Light- foot, as handsome as Lightfoot and ap- parently as angry as Lightfoot, was also pawing the ground.

She acted for all the world as if she wondered why these two should be threatening to fight. Suddenly, as if by agreement, both plunged forward. As they came to- gether they rose on their hind feet and struck with their forefeet. They struck hard. You know those forefeet are armed with sharp-edged little hoofs.

You see, they had known Lightfoot for so lon{hnut he seemed to belong there; and they knew that whoever should lose the battle would have to leave the Green Forest.

I am all in favor of any treatment that cleanses the skin, for many bad complexions come from imperfect | cleaning. The pores of the skin must be kept free of any clogging material, they must be able to act without inter- ference, throwing off waste matter from the body. The ideal method of clean- cing has yet to be found—in my opin- fon. Soap and water, yes, by all means, but in some districts, the water is so hard it is bad for the skin, and some soaps are too harsh, Cold creams—yes, they help, but too much cream sticks up the pores of the skin too. The trouble really is modern conditions, with city streets that collect and blow dust, with country roads that send up | clouds of dirt with every passing motor, MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN.

But I think the nearest to an ideal | cleansing is to rub the face full of cold cream at night, and then to wash it all off. For, undoubtedly, the cream does go deeper into the pores than soap and water, it does take up and soften the powder, makeup, dust and other things that get into the skin, and it makes it easy to wash these out. By itself, it may take them out also; at| least, two applications of oil or cream would. But cream lets a tiny deposit of wax remain in the skin, which is| not especially good for you.

CRAIG. October 8, 1820.—~Stratford Canning, British Minister to the United States, wrote a letter to his mother today in which he told of the development of steamboat trafic in America. After telling of the voyage over the Atlantic and his safe arrival on this side Mr. Canning wrote: “The steamboats particularly at- tracted our attention. “While we were lyil“n.!I in Hmmn Roads § newly established steamboat set out for the first time from Norfolk ho | to Washington, and a few hours after she had passed us in gallant trim, with her train of smoke streaming down the wind and her wheels dashing through the waves as if nothing could check them, we saw her towed back in & most helpless condition. “No explosion had taken place, but her machinery had got out of order and the vessel was obliged to return to “The invention itself is a noble one and the Americans seem to understand its full advantage.” Steamboats are running once every weekday, except when ice prevents in the Winter, from Washington to Aquia Creek, Va. The distance is 40 miles from the city and the boat returns the same day. It was not long after this so-called Aquta “ferry” was established that ‘Thomas Carbery, who was one of Wash« ington’s mayors, advertised in the Daily National Intelligencer, August 9, 1817, what he called the “Steam Boat Experi- ment.” His advertisement ran, in part: “This new and beautiful Steam Boat is now fitted up in the most complete and eficient manner for the accommo- dation of passengers and will com- mence running from my wharf (mouth of Tiber Creek) to Alexandria on Sun- day next and continue to run regularly every day, leaving this place at 9 o'clock am, and Alexandria at 4 o'clock S.m," After describing in greater detail the vessel, its equipment and crew, Mr. Car- bery added in his advertisement: “The Experiment runs remarkably fast, and as to the general apprehen- sion from the busting of boilers, any person acquainted with the nature of them can be satisfled in a moment that these boilers are so constructed (with safety valves) as to prevent a possibility of injury from them or any part of the machinery. “It 18 hoped that the citizens of Washington and Alexandria will give | ample encouragement to this useful and pleasant mode of communication.” SONNYSAYINGS BY FANNY Y.
