shore. The members of tho Baptist Young
People's union of the South Main Ave
nue First Welsh Baptist church met
In regular session last evening In tho
church parlors. In addition to other
routine business oincers-elect for the
ensuing term were Installed. Those
seated were: .Tames It. Hughes, pres
ident; Miss Sarah Meredith, first vice
president; Miss Elizabeth Hughes, sec
ond vice president; Miss Martha
Hughes, corresponding secretary, Luth
er Lewis, treasurer; Hugh Williams,
conductor of singing; Miss Elizabeth

MUZZLE THE DOC.S.
There is an ordinance among other
ordinances in this city which would
bear enforcing. The effort need not
be long continued mi that, those who
should enforce it might bo wearied In
so doing. The ordinance referred to Is
the one which declares that all dogs
Phould be muzs-led during certain per
iods of the year. That time. Is now
nnd yet not one dog out of COO Is so
harnessed.
Of course you will find many who
will say It Is such an apparent cruelty
to strap up a dog's nose or place a
wire cage like a baseball catcher's
mask on his face. But lot some can
ine, differing from the heat and prob
ably teased by some persons, bite a
child or grown person and witness the
Indignation.
Of late, much proof of the necessity
of the enforcement of this ordinance
has existed. Many Instances of bitten
persons have been recorded und yet
the dogs still wear no masks. One
oasis of consolation exists In this des
ert of neglect and that Is that nearly
every canine whether mnd or not, has
been shot, after the biting, this year.
It is 11 well known fact that many
dogs nro neither vicious or mad, but
during this hot, murky weather, the
unlmals are Just as irritable as human
beings and have not the means of
seeking alleviation ut their command
as human beings do.
Some one will see the poor canine
with froth hanging about his Jowl
and "mad dog" is the cry. Well It
will not take much chasing and ston
ing to madden that same dog and then
somo one gets bitten. It Is still fresh
In the memory of many on this side
how little Hennle Hevnns, of Acad
emy street, and Willie Jordan, of West
Lackawanna avenue, were victims.
Yet that don was given water nnd
food and even whipped after his wild
escapade.
Only Thursday evening Patrolman
Mc.Colllgan was notified that a large
dog was acting strangely on Thir
teenth street near Luzerne street. He
went back there and found the dog
and shot him. No one claimed the ani
mal and the hotly was removed to the
crematory. Instances like the above
occur almost dally yet tho dogs either
owned or unowned wander about with
out muzzles.
We would suggest that those who
own dogs put muzzles on them and
Keep them around home as much an
possible during the heated term. They
can thus anticipate the enforcing of
the ordinance and prevent the dos
being worried and biting some one.
SOCIAL EVENTS.

SOME BEAUTY RULES.
Modern Recipes for Attaining Good
Looks of Varied Kinds.
From the Philadelphia Times.
To Get Thin. Eat a great deal of
chopped meat without any potato In It.
Drink little tiuld of any kind except
strong tea. Exercise a great deal with
out drinking and do not eat bread, but
ter, or candy. Lemonade, acid drinks
of all kinds, and saline mineral waters
are excellent. Drink a glass of clear
water before breakfast.
To Get Fat. Eat vegetables and
sleep after each meal. Go to bed at 9
o'clock and lie In bed half an hour af
ter you wake up. Laugh a great deal.
Drink water by the pint or the quart If
you can. Drink weak and sweet tea
with plenty of milk In it. Take cod
liver oil and sweet oils as much as you
can. Eat until you feel as If you would
burst at the table. Put plenty of but
ter on your bread, and do not be afraid
of ales, lagers, and sweet wines. This
will guarantee a gain of live pounds a
month, and, If you can sleep a great
deal, of double that amount.
To Have a White Skin. Eat no meat
at all. Become a vegetarian; they al
ways have beautiful skin. Once In six
weeks or o eat a meal of fresh meat.
This does away with the tendency to
scurvy that curse of the vegetarian.
Drink as much water as you can, cat
little grease, and touch no tea or cof.
fee. Your breakfast may be oatmeal
and oranges; your dinner fruit, nuts,
fruit tea preferably quince tea gra
ham mulllns, cauliflower croquettes,
marmalade, and dishes of stewed vege
tables. The diet is not no bad when
you get used to It. In large towns you
will find one or two restaurants cater
ing to such as you.
To Become Very Muscular Walk a
great deal, carrying something always
In the hands. This develops the arms.
To roll a hoop might be good If
one were brave enough to do so In pub
lic. Practice lifting a little every day.
Never strain or tire yourself. Eat
meat, drink milk, and practice hendlng
backward, forward, and eldeways
every day. At night rub about a table
spoon of brandy or rum Into your skin
on the under and tender part of tho
arms.
To Have Plumb Hands. Rub them
with sweet oil night and morning. Ex
ercise them by rubbing together. Never
wear tight sleeves or snug gloves.
To Keep One's Feet Small. This Is
difficult. The first sign that one has
passed youth la the tendency to wear a
larger pair of shoes and this Is neces
sary. The feet spread and really
grow. To remedy this wear shoes ns
long as can be managed, but not
ns wide as seem necessary. Never
wear old slippers around the house, un
less they are snug in the width, and
be careful of corns. These nre never
necessary while the chiropodist exists.
To Havo a Fine Color. Wash the
face with the Juice of preserved straw
berries In the winter, and In summer
rub a ripe berry on the face.
For a Smooth, White Skin, Without
Dieting. Bathe the face dally with
buttermilk. A preparation of tincture
of benzoin and rose water Is excellent
for whitening purposes. There nre
very good prepared creams, but these
are never cheap. Do not go under a
dollar for them If you want them com
pounded of fine and pure materials.
To Have One's Garments Sweet
Scented. Make Fachet bags and slip
them In the linings of dresses. They
will, If good at first, keep their scent
for a year or more. Fold the bodices
of the scented gownsi and lay them
awuy In nlr-tlght boxes. This fills
them with scent.
A LETTER THAT GOES ALWAYS.

Children, and especially young adults,
are most subject to the disease, for It
is In them that the tonsils are most
fully developed and most prone to take
on Inflammation. The glands gradu
ally become smaller in middle life and
have more or less completely disap
peared In those who have reached old
age.
The cause of quinsy Is not always
evident. A tendency to the disease
seems sometimes to run In families,
and It has been noted that those who
have frequent attacks of tonsllltls In
youth often suffer from gout or rheu
matism in later life. The Immediate
cause seems often to bo exposure to
cold and wet when the person Is fa
tigued or a little "under the weather."
The presence of sewer gas In the house
has been accused of exciting attacks
of tonsllltls In those unfortunates who
have contracted tho quinsy habit.
The first Indication of trouble is
usually a chill or a chilly sensation,
such as many people have come to
recognize as a sign of having caught
cold. This Is followed by n little fever,
with dryness und "stiffness" In the
throat and u little pain on swallowing.
The pain, which rapidly Increases, Is
continuous, but Is greatly aggravated
by the chewing and swnllowlng of food.
On looking Into the throat the swollen
und reddened tonsil Is reudlly seen.
When both tonsils are affected they
may often to seen pressing against
each other, and seemingly blocking up
the throat completely.
Sometimes tho trouble may appar
ently, at leant be cut short by early
treatment, Mit usually the Inflamma
tion oes on to the formation and dis
charge of an abcess.
A person with tonsllltls should live
in milk and broths. Indeed, there Is
no temptation to take solid food, not
only because of the pain In Bwnllowlng,
but because the appetite Is lost.
