A LARGE NOSE.

A jroHiiiiMit now, mid wish to lessen the size of thfit
feature, if jxissible? I ma "frnil the evil is beyond
Imninii remedy. Expriments with wprin clothes-pins
mid compressors rcKiilt only in confiiHion. While nn
exaggerated mouth limy lie modified, ami nn expansive
fur concealed, (ho nose munt lie left to itself, nuked to
the eye of criticism and the teeth of the north wind. But
take comfort, A prominent none it not so unlovely a
thing on the face of a lady, and Landry bangs and a
plenty of Huffy lace around the neck will materinlly aid
in canting the unduly prominent feature into nuncio. The
pages of history and the rc rein of royal houses ore full
of cIccsIh of brave men and triumphs of fair women whose
now were as uncompromising as your own. Ca'sar,
Charlemagne and NaMileoii, Semiramis, Queen Elizabeth
and Catherine of Kussin, all rejoiced in an over-generous
nasal prominence. Why should their physical nnti-types
of lesser fame and broader culture regret the mark of
distinction which Nature has placed incrudieably upon
their faces' If fashion is at odds with such a feature,
then the wise woman will compel fashion to yield to it,
and will avoid the straight-haired, straight-collared order
of attire which renders her nose too conspicuous. She is
IniuiicI in justice to herself to do this. The fashionable
ruge fur imvoly has much to answer fur with regard to
the desecration of "the human form divine." It has
alternately bleached and blackened the hair, and given to
deadly hmm h permanent pluco on the toilet table. It
has H.ucey.od the feet, twisted th ankles and prescribed
n gait that is half twaddle and all wobble. But ho long
as no question is made of introducing the Ix.ard of the
Matheads and the foot bandages of China, it may bo as
sumed that the nose, whether bulbous, boukish, tip-tilted
"sharp as a pen," will bo permitted to remain un

BE SOMEBODY.
rilHE following is from one of It. J. Burdette's lectures:
1 " Be Bomebocty on your own account, my son and
don't try to get along on the reputation of your ancestors.
Nolwdy knows and nobody cares who Adam's grandfather
was, and there is not a man living who can. tell the name
of Brigham Young's mother-in-law." The lecturer urged
upon his hearers the necessity of keeping up with the
every clay procession and not pulling back in the harness.
Hard work never was known to kill men; it was the fun
that men had in the intervals that killed them. The fact
was most people had yet to learn what fun really was. A
man might go to Europe and spend a million dollars, and
then recall the fact that he had a great deal more fun at
a picnic twenty years ago that cost him just sixty-five
cents. The theory that the world, owed every man a
living was false. Hie world owed a man nothing. There
was a living in the world for every man, however, pro
vided the man was willing to work for it If he did not
work for it somebody else would earn it, and the lazy man
would " get left." There were greater opportunities for
workers out West than in the Eastern cities, but men who
went out West to grow up with the country must do their
own growing. There is no browsing allowed in the
vigorous West. An energetic man might go out into the
far West, and in two or three years possess himself of a
bigger house, a bigger yard, a bigger barn and a bigger
mortgage than he could obtain by ten years' work in the
East. All young men ought to marry, and no young mnn
should envy old men or rich men. In conclusion, Mr.
Burdotte said that a man should do well whatever he was
given to do and not despise drudgery.
BEEP JUICE VS. BEEP TEA.
pliOF. ROBERTS BARTHOLOW, of the Jefferson
I. Medical College, says: "Nothing has been more
conclusively shown than that beef tea is not a food. It
is nothing more than a stimulant The chemical com
jxmition of beef tea closely resembles that of urine, and
it is more an excrementitious substnne.fi th n fond. In
preparing beef juice the lean part of the beef should be

size of a lemon squeezer. The piece should be next
placed upon a hot coal fire for a moment, to scorch the
exterior; the meat is then trrnisforrfirl ttm lamon
