" A new thcor>' has been startctl with rejrard to the use of soap

on the facc. Women who for year, l u v c been careful of their com-

plexions would never, under any circumstances, wash the face in

soap, as it was said to roughen and coarsen the skin. Now, that

Ivory Soap lias been invented, this idea is exploded, and a well-

known physician in the metropolitan profession recommends his

women patients t o use it freely every day. lathe ing the skin well.

He states that none but the most beneficial results will be effected

by this method of improving the skin.

H e holds—with considerable plausibility—that the pores of the

(ace become as much clogged by grease and dirt as the hands or any

other portion of the body. And if .soap is considered a necessary

purifier in the bath, its needs must be felt equally on the face. By

an abundan: and regular lathering the facial pores, he claims, are kept

open, clean, free from the clogging matter that produces unsightly

blackheads, acne, pimples, and a pure, healthy, fresh and brighter

complexion is the resultant Not mincing matters, he says that the

trouble with most women who have s^ ,ow, pasty skins is, that from

INTERNAL KEVESCE COLLECTOR STEK-ETEEhas appointed U10. W . Per ry , of

the Bellevue Uazette, Deputy Collector for tho third division of th is district , composed of Ea ton , Barry, Allegan. Van

Buren. Kalamazoo, St. Joseph, Cass and Berrien counties. Mr. Perry was tbe Secretary of t h e Michigan Press Associa-tion a t its meet ing this year, a n d brings to th is position all the quali t ies requir-ed. as he » young , energetic, compet-ent and popular .

A READER suggests t ha i the reason the purchnsing power of a bushel of wl-eat

is grenter to -dsy than thi r ty yeare ago is on account of the develoDment of this

country , good count ry roads where there was simply a trail , and rai lroads form-ing a network over th is vast count ry . Surely tha i is one reason, hut what brought about this wonder fu l develop-ment . W h a t is the cause of these vast sys tems of rs i l roads that m a k e as good markets for products in the sparsely set-tled west as in t h s overcrowded east , if not ti e wise policy of the Republican party in protect ing home induslriee

against tbe pauper labor of the Old World.

OP ALL art icles of human production and consumption, t h e products of the f a n n e r , especially breiidstulTs. are pre-eminent ly neces»aries. No substi tute ezists in our widely separated |)anilells

of lat i tude, fo r grain, beef, pork and dairy products . Every blow intended to di-stroy protection is a s tab a t the well being of the f a n n e r more than at

any or all t h e other classes. And kere let ua ask what is the i tnporianco of the much vaunted World's market to Amer-ican farmers? A howl of distress was lately heard a t Ibe New York Corn Ex change because the "8 cen t s per day Asiatic and Afr ican loborer" was offer-ing grain in tho English marke t s lower than our f a n n e r s could, would or should supply it- These conditions are not now. Over f i f ty years ago Gen'l. Jack-son. the demi-g'Hl of tho democrats , the man who they claim put the i r party on a permanent foundati '>n, wrote the fol lowing to L. II . Coleman, of Virginia, who warned him ths t his protection ideas were liable tu lose him hlselect inn:

" D r a w f rom agricul ture tin- aupeia-bundant lalior, employ il in inecliamsm and manufacl t i res , thereby r m i t i n g a home marke t fur your breadstuff ,and ills t r ibn t ing labor to a most pmfl table ac-count . and benefit to tho countrv will result . Take from AgrlculturH in t h e United Slates, six h u r d r e d thousand men. women and children and you at once give a home marke t for more breadstuffs than all Eunipe now fu r -nishes us. In short , sir, w e have been too long subject to the policy of these British merchants , ll Is t r u e we should become a l i t t le more Americanized, and instead of feeding the paupers and lalKir era of Euro|>e, feed our own , or else in a short t ime by cont inuing our present policy we shall all become pauper* our-selves."

Did any one ever see any article more

completely Imbued with t h e Protection idea than this? Can any one tell us why it is not t rue ?

The widow Mnuvalro had «iilTer«<l msny reverses of fnrtstne Her eldest son. who had heen her snle support, bail |ierlslied by *hii> wrr^k and left his f"ur motl.erle^ children to tier enro. This inlufnrliine hml Imlelluitely postponed. If not entirely prevented, the marriage of her ilaiiKhter, ImMes cutting •liort the studies of her second son, who wa* obliged to coinn home nt unci! and m-ck for work. Dut in the midst of the nn: le t in of the poor family an unexpected ray of hope appeared.

A letter wn* received from Ilfuno Mao-vaire, tho widow's hrotber-ln-la ' who had left home a- a sailor twenty years liefore. He wrote from I)lepi«. which win but a few miles awny. and Nild Ihnt he hail just come from America with all his worldly K'««l'.and intended immediately to visit UnnondvOlc, his native place. At that time It was not very unusual to see at Dieppe merchant*, whose shlpe crowds"! the harlsir, and who had left home years before, In tho dre* of common sailor*, and the sijlil of these fortu nate onw was a constant source of ••ncourage-fient to tbe ambitious, and of hope to the penmless. The unexpected news of their un-r!o from America, therefore, gave rise to the most delightful conjecture* in tbe Mauvalre family, for although be did not state tbe ex-act ami.unt of his fortune, it was easy to see from the Jovial tone of Ills letter that he wa* a msn of wealth and prosperity. Once start-ed. Imagination ran riot, each one adding something to the first supimtition.

'Te r lups if he had como liefore, my poor Didler need not have worked so hard," »ij:hed the widow.

Julienne, her goddaughter, who helped with tbe housework, replied quickly,"But there are bis children tu bo provided for. and beside* the rich uncle will no ilnulit >co lo il that Miss Clemence has a rich marriage dowry."

"That would lie no uie now."said the youug girl, shaking her heHil hopelenly.

No use!" repented Julienne. "Is it not for the want of a dowry that Mr. Mark's parents have refused their cunMi.it to his marriage and sent him olTtu sear Your uncle lias hut to say tho word and tho young man will soou como back again."

Perhaps he does not want to come hack." said Clemence in a low tone, and turned away.

But her brother, thinking less of the man than of the marriage, added oousoimgly: "If he does nnt another will. You may be sure, •deter, that a pretty girl with su uncle from America nyed never want for a lin.-l.aiid Very likely he will bring uyoung friend with him. some millionaire that be bos chosen for • nephew."

I hope bo will do nothing of the kind." cried Clemence in dismay. "I am in uo hurry lo get married."

"What is most urgent is to Und a good |>ORI-lion for you. Martin." said the widow tu an anxious tone to her son.

"Tho count has almost promimxi mo the overseer's place," said the young man.

His mother answered: "But he seems to Iw in no hurry. Tliat is always the way with t i e rich. They think only of their own pleas-ure*, and when a t last they happen lo remem-ber the bit of bread promlsnl to a fellow creature the poor roan bus starved lo death."

"Uncle Bruno will not forget us." suid Martin. "The letter says. 'I shall be in Or mondville to-morrow with all my worldly goods.' Ho will soou ho here."

"Clemence. is everything ready f" osKed Uie mother, bustling alsiut.

For answer her daughter opened the pantry aod showed tho well tilled shclvra. Near lo a roost leg of lamb was a huge ham. flankrd by two dishes of wheat cake* and a bo« I of sweet crcnm. while several Jugs of elder and a butler tart completad a bill of fare which made tbe children exclaim in delight. The widow had taken from InT linen chest her best tablecloth, which had grown yellow through want of uso. and Julienne now hast-ened to set tig fible. putting in the place of honor the only silver >poon. Just then one of tlm children who had heen wotchiug out-iiilo rushed Into the houae exclaimlug: "Her* be is; hero he is!"

"Who is i t f asked tho others. "Undo Bruno, of cournel" answered a

cheery voire, and there appeared in the door way an old. bearded sailor, holding in one Imnd n small bundle and nn his other wrist a green parrot, while on his shouldur perchcd a monkey. Tlio younger children in aMj i/bt ran behind their grandmother's chair ami the grown persons gazed at tbe aowcomer in dismayed silence.

"Von need not be afraid of my menagerie." •aid tho sailor, laughing. "Come aud l.iss me, children, for I have traveled three thou-land Itagues to have thai pleasure."

Martin Mauvalre was the llrsl lo recover hiniM-lf suflicietilly to greet his-relnllon; then Clomeuv. her mother and tho eldest of the children followed his example, but nolhiu^ could Induce tho liirce little ones to stir.

"My faith! I lliought I would never bo here." said tho uncle; "ll is a long walk from Uisppo."

His nephc^r glanced down and saw that tha traveler's IwoU were covered with mud.

"Do you mean to suy that you walked all the way!" ho criej.

•Indeed, 1 did. Uo you IhlnU I could sad acroai the Ueldsf"

"Bu t -your baggagef" "I have my baggage on tne." " I beg your pardon, uncle, but wo thought

from your loiter that you would" "That I would come in a Ibteo decker, tuy

11* tnndea sign to the moukey. who leaped from his ihoulder and lurn.-d three •umer-kaults across the room, thuu sat up, grinning and scratching ins head. His master then seated himself at the Ublu and, with a glance a t the half open pantry, declared that hi- wai nearly fiimlihel. There was nothing to be d >iie but to m t boforu him tha bam and the •bier which be bad seen, but Mum. Mauvalre ihul tbu pantry door on tha nut of tho daln-tin.

"Vou are right." he said; "I chanced to he on tbe const of India whore he was wrecked, r.nd 1 found the spot where they had buried him with some other*. 1 planted a bush on the grove."

"Oh. thank you. Brother!" said the mother, tearfully.

"Then I learned that his watch was In the prmesaion of one of those miserable I .a-cars, so I bunted him up and gavo blm all 1 hod for It. and here It U "

He put an old silver watch Into her hands, and she. recognizing It as hnr son's, pnjsed It tn her lips and soblwl softly. Tho others wiped their eyes, and Uncle Bruno hurriedly drank a glaw of cider to bide his emotion. A long talk followed, and although the Mau valres found Hint their first Impressions had been correrl—their relative having returned to his home absolutely as poor as ho hsd left It—the attentions they now liestowed on him were dictated by pure offection instead of by policy, as liefore.

Martin having left the room for a minute, came hurrying lack to ask his undo what he would sell tho monkey for.

"Sell Rnohambeaur cried the old man. "Why, I raised him myself, and he ha* always been my companion. He loves me de-votedly. snd shall never have another mas-ter. Who wants hlmT

Tho young man replied, with a disappointed air, that tho count whs [Kissing and took such a fancy to tho funny animal thst he told Martin to find out tho price and bring it up tu the chateau.

It is very nnfortunate," said Martin, wistfully, "for ho said that he wanted to see mo aliout the position—and your refusal will put him in such a Ind humor."

The untie, on bearing what this position was. said: "Then I give you tho monkey, Martin, and you can do what you like with bim. Now go at onto, liefore the -.•onnt change* his mind."

An hour later tho young man returned and delightedly recounted how ho had ob-tallied tho position nt a good salary.

It is all your doing, Druno," said the widow; "how thankful wo are that you came home!'

"Why. I brought you nothing hut two useless brutes," ho answered, with i. twinkle In his eye.

They have j u s t reached Ihe age l o ob-tain tbe greatest good f rom s rhoo l t ra in -ing, to receive the crowning benefits. To stop going to school nt this point is like slopping in a race before Ihe g'utl Is rend led. The prize Is not won in tha i « n v . It Is like p lucking the f r u i t liefore

A Plea for Hoys. I am sorry that boys are not generally un

dentood. Between U and 14 years of age lbs masculine nature Is a mixture of mis chief, and sensitiveness, and spunk, and fun. and trouble, and pugnacity, which ihe diem istry of tbe world falls to analyze. A little girl is deflnalilo. Hbo laughs alien die Is pleas"!, crio* whon ihu feels Ind. |sMlf» wbeu she is cro** and eats when she is bun gry. Not so with a boy. Ho would rather g o a nutllng than tu eat. forgeU al the llsli pond bo has not bail bis dinner, ufton laughs when ho fwls bad, and luoks siibmisaive to an Imposition practiced upon till he gets tho perpetrator alone in the middlo of Uie road and tumblcx him Into tlw dirt, till eyes aud mouth and none are full that the fel low Imagine* thai twfure hi* time h« Im* ro turn si to dust.

A boy under a calm exterior may hove twenty eniolious struggling for aK-etulancy Especially do I feel for a boy who lias more fun alsKinl than he can master. How well I rgineinlier the country achoolhouse, where wo all bnd to Iw solute, though one boy would make a fucu enough to pnl the whole sch< ol In duuger of t mining oicr with giggle, ll Is an awful tiling for a child not to dure to Ijngh when the mcrriineut rise- mi l well* up (111 the Jacket gets flight and tbu Issly i* a bull of Inn. und lie knows Hut if out of one of the eoi tiers uf bis comprsWed li|»>a*nickcf abotllil esoipe nil tba Isii* would gooff in ex ploMlon.

Eiomple. Courage. HUo covv:irilioc, is contagious,

and the olllcer who longs to lead brave men into battle of ten needs only to ahow his own personal dar ing.

During the defense of Vicksburg siz batteries wero coiuploted by tho Con-federates under t h e eyet nnd fire of the Federal troops. Ono of these liatteries. in process of construct ion, was u n d c r i h e couiinaiid of Col. Henry W. Alien, ond bo main had live or six guns in position. Tho enemy discovered hta mpldly nccom-plinhed task, und by tho Unio Ihe lost gun was fixed tlieir shells fpll thick and fast mnong tho ('-onfederulu soldiers.

Tim men. unused to such warm work, began to dodge, n ccurso of action which mused tho Ire of t ' leir Intrepid com-mander . Springing upon tha moat ez-poeed gun. hn shouto I:

"Soldiers, you cauu- here to fight; you arc ordered to build this battery, and (drawing his revolver) I'll shoot down tho first one of you that dodges f rom this work. No soldier of mine shall dodge from his du ty , "

The effect was sudden and tremendous. Tho colonel remained standing e rec t on his g u n , and tlm men a t once mailed around him.

" W u won't dodge!" cried they. "Gel off tlint gun! We'll d ie with youl"

There was no more dodging tha t day. —Youth's Companion.

The lady smiled. '•Show mo the way to the Janitor's room.

At a door lending from the entrance ball— a pretty door with a little sliding panel be side it like those at the IHJX olllces—they (mused at the Instant a terrible •cream was heard within, and the lady opened the door and entered.

A wiry, old woman In a black dress and while apron, with a little cap on he rhead-the very picture of neatness—flood in the middle of an orderly room, holding a little Iwy by the collar of his pluk shirt waist and beating him w iih a bundle of tagged leather thongs. It is the old instrumeut of punlsli-ment on some vessels yet, I believe, hulsall-omimku Ihem nnd sell them to civilians a* "furniture heater*" now.

This woman was putting tbe thing to Its original purpose, and the torture of such blows, even when given by her weak, little old arin. must have been terrible to so small a child.

"Take that and sass mu again," she c r ied-"taku that, and Hint!"

A mouienl iiioi-e and she paused. Some one had coolly taken her by the collar of her drew aud drawn her hack. Now a lady, to whose shoulder the Janitreas* head scarcely reached, took the cat-o'-nine-lalU from her and Jix'w the walling child towai-d her.

"You ought to bo ashamed of yourself." said this unexpected visitor, curtly. "If the ehlld needed correction s little switch would 110 enough. I've a mind to have you arrestod for using this."

"And what right have you to Interfere, iiia^ani. I'd like to knowi" cried the womau.

"1 am Lady Vernon." responded theoiher, guietly.

She knew lhat the woman waa of English olrth by her accent, and she chose to overawe her by a title. She succeeded.

"Pin sure, my lady." cried ths Janit' •your ladyship can't know huw lha child

tries my pnlieitce, and all I have to bear." "And I'm sure." replied my lady, " t i n t

"Put suro you'll not do that to a poor wid-ow, my lady," sobbed Ihe lanitress.

"If yon strike the child again 1 shall," said l.aily Veruou. "Phcebe, lirlng Ihe child up «tolr« aud anuise him a little Now, my good woman, what is the price of this thing("

"It's my furniture lieater, ma'am," cned the woniaii. "worth a dollar."

The lady placed some money on the tahle snd walked awny <?ith the .•at-o'-niue-tails uuder her inn. while the lanitress darted after her.

"A real Iady. r the said. In an awe stricken voice. "Ah. but ihey aro 'aughtyl they're born to it."

It so happened that I.ady Vernon was bom In Massachusstta. a Yankee girl to the back-Iwne. and a country mluUter's daughter, but an Englishman of title had come to "the States," met her and married her. She had gone to Kugland with him and there great misfortunes hsd befallen her. Her husbanil broke hU neck while huuting, aud a few weeks aflci'wanl her little aon was drowned. The nurse had left him forainoment near the shore al a teasida resort, to which she had taken hmi; when she returned h» was not tu be aoen. His hat Uualin - upon Ihe water told the tala. And shortly th - widow found ihul the sad event had made a dllference in her means and iNwitiou. The estate* went to tlie second broiher iu the event of the child's death, nnd that which was hers as his guar . dlan during his minority passed away.

She cared very little, for her heart was broken by this aeoond blow, nnd with what little ronmliifd to her she left the home en itemed lo her by snch fond recollections, plainly weing that the new heir was glad to have her go. lie had always haled his broth-er'* wife, "that Yankee womait"

That was live years before. TI1110 had soft-encil her sorrow, hut life had little lo offer her She had loved too well 10 marry again. Uer parent* w ere dead aud ihe had bevu so only child.

She had traveled quietly over Europe dur ing Ibese years, aud now roturned to dwell in her native umd, bringing her maid Phssbe with her.

The girl now knelt on the Ooor playing With the child, a pretty little fellow, wall cared fur at lu cleanliuess.

"Why does sho lieat you so. darlingf" she asked. "How euuld any on* strike him. uta 'amr

"Heaven know*," raid Lady Verpon "Pha-lie, he Is Just the age my boy would have been, i think." Uer leait began tu fall

A foolish fancy that tbe child w u like her lost sou came into her mind.

"Troulile uoftuiu tha bralu, I fancy,* tb* aald to hnrtelf.

Tho child played with Phcabe for an hour, and then tho girl conveyed a meuuige to the janltn-s that Uuly Vernon would like lo have him come up wli«.iever uc CIIOM, oa sliu bad taki n n fancy 10 him.

The old English woman, overawed by tho fact thst n great lady patronised the child, licnl him no more, umi sent him up stairs at fresh and tidy us hands could make hint Slut hml nl least tho virtue of eleaidlnua,and hour afler hour the child played in the losUs fui aparlnienta of the dear good lady, as he called her, showing no trace of ths olsiUnacy of which hisgrandinolhoraccuscd hint

He was a genllemiudy little fellow, and never broke what he wns allowed to ploy with, nnd Lady Vernon, who fancied her heart grown cold since the object of her adoration had been torn from it, found her-self once more warmly attached lo a living creature.

She began to wish that tho child belonged to her, and from that went on saying to her-self that it might. She could adopt tho boy, perhaps; remove him from his grandmother's influenee. educate him, and bring him up as her aon He wns one lo do her credit. Yet any mother will understand how- a molher would shrink from puttlug another in hor dead son's place. It almost seems like trrach ery toward that other nearer and dearer ono, and I.ody Vernon hesitated, and indeed aban-doned the Idea more than once, only to recur to it again. She strove hard not lo love the child, but her heart was beyond her control

l.lttle Martin crept Into ll, though tho strove lo banish him by tbe thought of her baby Roderick, whoso grave wai In the sea. OIM day, to steel herself agalqst ibis uew

love by memories of her boy. Lady Vernon took from the depths of ono of her traveling trunks a box In wulch "he kept Roderick's •oys. She Inniod Ihem over and her tears fell upon them.

"No. my tiahy." sho said. "I will not hav» snnther son 10 lake your place—I will not." flien she cried out to Phirbo: "Ah. Phtebo, here is the mamlarln he loved sol He had Ihe head in his hand when nurse left him 00 the shore. Oh. Phmbe!"

"Dear heart, so he had." said Phcebe. "Hr used to take the head out always."

At that moment little Martin ran into the room. Us spied the Iw* of toys and rushed tiwerd it,

"Vou mutt not tonch them." said Phosbo. "They are dear little Master llndenck's, and

he it dead." And -Jie drew him back For the first tune thechlld showed the tem-

per the Janltress credited him with. "They are minor he said. He ran up lo tady Vernon again and

caught her ar ia "Say." bo cried,-"they are miner aud sud-

denly he seized the mandarin in both hands aud itathsd out of tbe room with it.

Ijtdy Vernon stared In amazemsnt. The toy he had clutched was iu her eyes • sacred relic of her dead tan.

"Stop hlni, Phcebe!" she gasped. "110 11 a bud child—a rude little oreature. after all!"

Phiebe started in hot pursuit, but the child was already back again. He had availed himself of the elevator which was coming up. He wai radiant, smiling, his cheeks aglow.

'•See!"1 he cried to l^ady Vernon, and pro tented her with the china mandarin noionger hendlots. but wearing his round, smiling face, hit arebed eyebrow*, and hit braided pigtail again.

"That Is Just what he waned."addM little Martin.

Lady Vernon had never fainted in her life or sbo would have dons so then Sho was bewildered, terrified.

She examined the mandarin cloecly. She as positive that the head ho wore had origl

nail* belonged to him. Besides, tlio toy wai nut an ordinary one to he matchcd in every shop.

This was tho head that had been lu her child't band when he was IMt by bis nurse upon the beach. She looked at Martiu again.

'•Where did you get tha t f she asked. "I t Is mine," said the child, "and so are all

those." Lady Vernon was trembling from head to

lady asked, pointing to the mandarin's head. •'The chauy headf He has always had It,"

said the old woman. "It fits the image; but indeed I think bo's no thief. Anyway. It's been with him since 1 had hhn."

'•When did you get himC asked l-ady Ver-non. "Where! Whose child is hof Vou call him your grandchild—is he really to'"

Tho woman heeltated. Then the answered, dowly:

"No, my lady, I've nothing to do with him any way. Hois nobody's chilli, I've always thought. William and mo never had any chddren—wo married late In life—and one •lay a gvntleman William had been groom to nune to blm. 'I 'm going to lie married, WH Ham.' said he, •and there's a buy I'd like tu have out of the way. I've bsen a little wild, and—you understandr And William of course thought l.e did. So he lold William that he'd give blm a lum of money to lake the child to America and call him his grand child—ond it was enough 10 open a public house with, and that was William's aiubitiou. So he paid the money and we got the boy the day we went aboard thlp, live years ago thit autumn. Hr cried a good deal and wanted his molher—some light of love of the gentle man's, I snpisise And he had that chany head iu his pocket, he's kept It ever since. He don't break anything, sud—1 hope noth Ing it wrong, ma'am f"

"No—go on!" gasped my lady "Tell m» 'he gentlemairs immel"

"The gentleman's name was Mr. Alfred Pnrnhum," said the Janitrass "And my poor husliand failed ia the public house, lost all, aud left lha child on my hands lienides when he died. Ohl my lady, what is i t f

" I t is this," cried Lady Vernon; "Mr. Al-fred K'urnhani is my husband's younger In-other. My child inlisrited tho estatea and titla.

It Is he—it it Ihe little follow therol I have loved him from Ihe flrst My heart told mo the iruth, though I did not understand. Roderick, my <tsi'ling. .vine to me—I am your molher!"

I fancy that Mr. Alfred Farnham bated his Yankee sister-in-law mora tbau ever, and yet she was lenient to lum.

"I could 1v.;iil8h you terribly," she said. "But you were my husband's brother; I

shall keep tbe story lo mytelf. Tho family lawyers will maintain silence, and the world need only know thai my boy—the rial Lord Vernon—I* restored to ins. Only, at you have a place in Scotland, yon will go to it and never let me see your face again."

And Mr. Alfred Faruham, though before the lawyers ho affectA-d 10 Iwlieve that ths Yankee wife al his dead brother had tricked them all. wus glad to Uke himself away lo safety.

"You are too merciful, lady Vernon," one uf the legal geutlemen who kept the family secret said tu lier, but she answered;
