HUMAN FACES ARE
LIKE SHOW WINDOWS.
Unfailing Indications of Wl.ai
Can Ba Found on the Inalda ol
the Individual.
"Making Faces" was the subject ot
a sermon delivered at the First Meth
odist Church, Cleveland, Olilo. by
Rev. Dr. Charlea Bayard Uttchaltj
who took his text from Er.clclastes
8:1, "A man's wisdom mnkih his
face to shine, and the boldness of his
face shall be changed," and from
Jeremiah v. 3, "They havo made their
facea harder than a rock."
"These statements plainly teach
.hat the human fare Is the handiwork
jf the soul," aald Dr. Mitchell.
"There are two widely recognized
facts first, the soul Ib the temporary
tenant of the body, and second, the
oul and body renct powerfully on
each other.
"The first fact Is, the teaching ol
Scripture Is taught by the new psy
chology and Is recognized In all mod
ern philosophy..
"As to the second fact, It is univer
sally known that the body Is power
fully affected by tho mind. Fear, an
ger, shame, hope, love, all mightily
affect the human body. The face is
that part of the body where the
fleshy covering Is the thinnest. There
the veil Is almost transparent.
"You can study the soul by looking
at the face. Physiognomy Is more
character reading than phrenology.
The face Is the most Interesting part
of the body. The greatest paintings,
Ruskln insists, are those of the hu
man face. The human face is the
most beautiful thing God has made,
and this Is because man co-operates
with Ood in its making.
"There Is a universal longing to
have a pleasing and beautiful coun
tenance. Hence, men and women
grow rich selling paints, powder?,
washes and such like, to the multi
tudes who want to Improve the looks
of their faces. This is nothing new.
Writers tell us that froiu the da;s
of ancient Egypt down to the modern
face artlat, women and some men will
go to any length to bo pretty.
"Another interesting fact connoctel
with the making of tho face is tho
way In which the ancient gladiator, or
modern soldier, will dull his facs by
toic methods to give no sign of pain
when enduring fiercest agonies. All
these things are but surfuce views of
this subject. It is strange that the
many who are so much InterestDd in
the subject do not go deeper. A
closer study will show that the true
artists at work on the face are not
working from without, but from
within. Charles Kingsley said, "The
soul secretes the body like thi oyster
its shell." This Is not true, of course,
fcut the truth lies in that direction.
"The face of Stephen, of Moses, and
of the transfigured Christ tells how
tho Inner light breaks through the
yface and makes It shine. The Inn IT
-life Is the true master-architect of the
face. Solomon says, 'A wicked man
hardeneth his face;' and Jeremiah
says, 'They havo their faces harder
than a rock.'
"Nearly every virtue and every vice
is pictured in the face.
"The face of tho old Is a better in
dex of character than that of the
young. Hence a saintly old woman
Is more beautiful than youthful beau
ty. Youth may have tho advantage In
form and color, but ago In the beauty
of character. The facs registers the
kind of life wo are living. A hundred
inner artists are at work on the face,
taking their orders from us.
"All of this would be of mere rela
tive value If only the face of flesh
was involved. But If the face reflects
the soul, then how Important that the
soul shall be pure and holy! The
end of holiness is not a holy face, but
a holy life. It Is the soul which out
lasts the face. The artist lives watu
the statue is forgotten.
. "The highest ambition of the true
Christian is attained when he shull
awake in Christ's likeness. We tre
glad to say, 'We know that when He
shall appear we shall he like Him." "
Uses of Paraffine.
Parr.fftne was at first a valueless
by-product of the oil refineries, but
has now a thousand uses. Besides
the use of parafflneforcnndles 2,000,
000 blocks of paraffins are sold every
year for a great variety of pur
poses. Paper made watertight by par
otide has been utilized to protect
crackers from the effect of damp
weather and moist climates. It is
even said that a cargo of biscuit so
preserved has been taken unharmed
from a sunken vessel. Paraffine was
applied to Cleopatra's needle in Cen
tral Park, and stopped the scaling off
of the surface.
Stone fronts of houses are protect
ed In the same way. Paraffine Is
made luto colored crayons, which will
stick on glass as well aa on papr. It
Is employed in laundries to whiten
the clothes and In polishing tbe'aur
lace of starched pioces. It Is turned
to account In the sealing of canned
fruits, or anything put up In bottles
by manufacturers, druggists or cheru
IbU, and is used generally as a sub
stitute for beeswax, tallow and seal
ing wax, and for Insulating wires.

Pittsburg, Pa. Wives of hun
dreds of Pittsburg rich men, after
several years of alleged "holding out"
on the city assessors with their bonds
and mortgages, bave at last been
taken into camp through a clever
move on the part ot the assessors,
who are now boasting of It to the
; discomfiture of the women who wear
blue silk stockings.
I The assessors claim to have uncov
i ercd assessable paper worth more
than $1,000,000, which has lain In
rosewood cases for years under cover,
' the owners not caring to pay taxes on
i It, and so never made returns of It to
the assessors.
The Pittsburg blue book was the
medium through which the assessors
of Pittsburg hung one ot the most
monumental bluffs ever worked off
on unsuspecting women. The cry
ing need of more taxable property
appealed to the assessors, and they
decided to call on the rich women of
Pittsburg, who have long been sus
pected of having much taxable paper
which has never been turned In.
Thousands of letters were sent out
to Mrs. John Smith, Mrs. William
Jones or Mrs. James Oreen, asking
them to please make statements to
the assessors regarding stocks, bonds,
mortgages, etc., that they were sup
posed to possess. This brought noth
ing. Mesdamcs Smith, Jones and
Oreen ignored tho summons as they
had done for years.
Finally the blue book waB thought
ot. There was some hard detective
work, and within a week other let
ters were sent out, but this time ad
dressed to Mrs. Lucille Jamison
Smith, Mrs. Vera Worthlngton Jones
and Mrs. Margaret Clancey Oreen,
1 and the letters read something like
this:
"My Dear Madam You will please
: furnish at once to the office of tho
City Assessors full particulars re
garding that block of Pennsylvania
Railroad stock which tho late
Mr. , your father, gave you on
your wedding day; also regarding
tho mortgages and bank stocks which
were given you by your husband some
years ago. We wish to have an ac
counting of taxes, and must ask you
to give this your Immediate atten
tion." The rich women of Pittsburg never
stopped to ask questions. They simp
ly flew to the offices of the assessors
to settle.
They did not know what might hap.
pen later if tho assessors could get
their maiden names and their family
history so readily, and they decided
to get their long held stock placed
on the books and pay their taxes.
Some of tho women almost fainted
when told that their maiden namee
came from the blue book. The as
sessors sent out 4000 of these letters
and have been forced to put on ex
tra clerk3 to handlo the business thai
is coming In.
The Pennsylvania Railroad, which
had 65,000 holders of stock, is a
favorite for the rich Pittsburg wo
men. The railroad some time ugo re
fused to permit the city assessors to
copy names from Its books, as did
many banks, and there was no way
to get at the fair holders of thl9
t property. Mortgages htld on prop
erties outside the State of Pcnnsyl
anla was also safe from taxation in
Pittsburg as long as the owners could
keep the knowledge of their owner
ship from the assessors.
According to an employe of tho
city there Is groat fear on the part
of persons of great wealth that they
may be arrested for perjury, since
they recently took oath as to all their
taxable possessions and did not in
clude taxable railroad stocks and
bonds worth thousands of dollars,
but when the blue book was rung In
on them, they uncovered the bidden
storo of bonds.

GERMAN OLD AGE PENSIONS.
tlovd-Georuc Astounded by Magnitude of System- Punch's
Little Joke.
London. David Lloyd-George,
Chancellor of the Exchequer, has
returned to London. He said, when
It was suggested that he discussed
naval programs In the course of his
stay in Germany, that he had gone
to that country simply to investigate
the German system of old age pen
sions. Punch, commenting on this,
says: "Now that his recommenda
tion to grant pensions has been
adopted be naturally feels that he
ought to seriously study tho ques
tion." It seems, according to Mr. Lloyd
George's statements in an Interview,
that he did not find the German sys
tem to be of such a socialistic char
acter as he and his friends advocate
In Great Britain. He said: "Em
ployers will tell you that nearly all
their workmen are Socialists." i;
f erring to the pension system he said:
"What a gigantic scheme is theirs
compared with ours. Thlrty-foui
million pounds ($170,000,000) are
distributed in pensions every year."
He added that of this sum the
State pays $14,000,000, the cost ol
administration only. For the rest
$70,000,000 is sick pay. The work
men contribute two-thirds. Eleven
million pounds, or $55,000,000. Is
paid to the aged and Incapacitated
masters and men contributing
equally, and $45,000,000 is paid foi
accidents, which expense the employ,
era must meet.
