Aourirrral Cava lUeoei-d. A cave which may prove to be one of the worldi wonder was dicovred n;ar Chama, Guatemala, lant month, by Leon J. Outton, a Pfnnsylvanla man, who has JuHt returned from that little-known country. Mr. Dutton trav eled two days In the cavern, without discovering anything of 1U terminug. and at one point paaped a cascade falling from a height of fully 200 feet and losing Itself in a bad of apparent ly solid rock, leaving behind billows of mist, which completely hid the sides of the great cave. From the natives Mr. Dutton learned that the end of the cave Is four days' journey from the entrance, and that hundreds of coffins made of pottery are stored la Its most remote chambers. Woman's frogrrts In Medicine. It is a trifle more than half a cen tury since the first woman was ad mitted in the medical profession of this country. Forty years later there were 3,000 in regular practice be sides an army of trained nurses, who In ordinary cases were a fairly good substitute for the regular practitioner. It Is estimated that the numDor has doubled since 1889. Women have not got alocg so well In England as In the United States. Theie are only eighty-six lady physicians in London and vicinity, but there are 396 In ac tive service in the United Kingdom and in India and China. In 1894 the sultan of Turkey surprised Europe by o-ning the door3 of medical colleges women. Four years later he re pented of this innovation, but per mitted foreign women to practice in the dominions. One Turkish lady Hllped through college while Its doors were open and is permitted to practice.

Our great grandmothers were selfish, ego tistical and silly little coquettes, who Etudled themselves in the mirror and brewed love potions and scented paste for the complexln, aping to the be3t Df human bent the Idle caprices of Empress Josephine and other fashion Able French women of the time. The romplexion was a religious study. Ex periment after experiment emanated from Parisian boudoirs to find their way to American shores and to en thrall the belles of Washington and Philadelphia. Kierelse Never Indulged In. Our .great-grandmothers never ex ercised. Jt was considered deplorable and ruinous to beauty. They w-ere constantly advised to avoid all excite ments and violent emotions, to sup press laughter, Joy, anger, and to cul tivate a sober, genteel life for the sake of the features. When It was found necessary to smile, generally by way nf coquetry, It was considered bad form to part the lips to any greater extent than to show four tes;h. In smiling the under lip was slightly raised. A hearty laugh was considered the hlght of vulgarity. Tricks for Improving the complex ion were simply numberless. The luice of strawberri-s was a favorite remedy for a shining, oily skin. An Internal remtdy was sometimes taken, consisting of a teaspoonful of charcoal mixed with honey. The worst face was softened by wearing a mask of quilted cotton, wet with cold water at night. This mask was often lined with a poultice of bread and asses' milk. A compress of this kind was worn nightly for weeks in order to effect the desired change. It Is said to have acted like a mild, Imperceptible blis ter. The shining pallor of the poet was affected by many women, and most heroic treatment was undergone to ac quire It A wash of vitriol was evei used. It consisted of muriatic acid fiO per cent, strong diluted In 12 parti of water. When applied It will gradu ally clear away the coarse outer skin to give place to a beautiful velvety new one undernejth. Dieting was an important factor In the struggle. Still hearty meals wert the rule, in spite of the tradition foi delicate appetite among our foremoth' ers. Coarse bread, made of graham and rye flour, was the imperative rule No white bread was eaten. It was es pecially avoided aa most fatal to t fine skin. Potatoes, celery, artichoke and salads were eaten freely. The wild tomato or love apple, as it was called, was considered a wonderful beautifier, and whole p'atterfuls were eaten at one sitting. Brawn bread and molasses was a remedy guaranteed to produce a pink and lovely skin. The fight against freckles and wrinkles was an absorbing combat. Most women sat all day long In seclu sion with their faces covered with court plaster patches over the wrinkled spots in their patient effort3 to smooth out the Ekin. Most heroic treatment was generally necsssary, and the face was actually coated with liquid tar and olive oil to Iron it out. Freckles and brown snots of all kinds were rubbed out with turpentine. fainted Like a Wax I'lirure. Strange as it may se.m, In spite ol continual efforts to beautify the skin, paint and powder were freely and dar ingly used. MiladI was a3 artistically painted for a public appearance as II she were a wax figure. Rouge was heavly applied, and the carmine used in artificial flowers often acted as a substitute. Washington women set the fashions in the use of cosmetics and they even appeared at breakfast with their fac's covered with chalk and rouge, their eyebrows stained with walnut juice, and with tresses touched up with bleaching liquids unless pow dered white. Powdered wigs were gradually going out of fashion, and a few to whom the white coiffure was becoming covered the head with pow dered starch, sifted through muslin and scented with oil of rose3. n IP ERILOUS ORCHID V HUNTING V T Gathenner the Cast w o ly Flowers is a . . . Dangerous Sport Probably yery few people have any Idea that orchid hunting, like lion or tiger hunting, Is a dangerous bport. The strange beauty o the flowers and the high priefs which they bring are the subject of common comment, but the fact that the beauty is sometimes fatal and that the price is the reward of labor that is both strenuous and perilous is little known outside the trade. On a calculation of chances, how ever, it would appear that shooting big game is a safe venture compared with the search for these lovely para sites of tropical vegetation. An arti cle in Harmsworth's Magazine gives a striking story in point. It relates that Df eight orchid hunters who left Tam itave, Madagascar, to look for speci mens seven perished within a year, while the eighth barely managed to es cape from the island's swamps with als health ruined. It is in such places that the search must be pursued, and men have lost their lives In the work not only in Madagascar, but In Mexico, Brazil, Ecuador, Venezuela and Sierra Lsone. Nor are the risks those of climate alone. It may be necessary to deal with wild animals while on a quest for the wild flowers, and there are gen erally hostile natives to be placated. All that the adventurers of old under went when they penetrated the new world to seek the fountain of life and fabulous mines of gold may fall to th3 lot of these adventurers of a later day. The romance is reduced, however, to a plain business proposition. Many of the men are sent out by regular dealers who pay them for their ser vices. For the person, who puts the capital into the enterprise there are chances for large profits, but it is said that a fortune is more likely to be lost than won in these orchid speculations. The value of the flowers consists large ly in their rarity, and on a rapidly stocked market prices may f'tll from many pounds to a few shillings within a short period. The Ffrst Torpedoes. Torpedoes, when first employed by the Americans against the British in the Kevo'lutionary war, were called American turtles, and their use was pronounced infamous and worthy only of savages.

OLDEST POSTMISTRESS i;;" f The oldest postmistress in the coun try is Mrs. Mary Paschall of Trenton, Ind., who was appointed by President Lincoln and who is now 90 years old. To her women who hold postofflce po sitions today owe much. Her bitter struggle to defend the malls la the early days of her appointment to the office and her ultimate success forever opened the field to women. She tells the story of her adventures in a spirited manner. "When I first received my commis sion," said the postmistress, "I found Immediately that my path would be very difficult Not only wag there the Imperfect mall system to stumble over, but the will of the men of the country was against mo because of too high riins onuosed to women holding nub ile office. Not Infrequently I was compelled to remain awake all night watching the mall bags, and occasion ally I had difficulty in securing the mall at all. For when the bng was thrown from the train upon the plat form at the depot the men of the town would elze It before I could get wlth Ing reach and assort the mall to suit themselves. Of course, the men had no right to disturb the mall, but Wey took the law In their own bands, be lieving a woman powerless. "I tolerated this behavior for a ihort time, and then purchased a gun. On day Just before the mall train had arrived I went upon the platform, lev elled my gun and declared I would shoot the first ruffian who touched tho United States mall. I was a pretty good shot, having often gone hunting with my brothers at the old farm in the wilds of WeBt Virginia, and when a fellow seized the bag I put a bullet In his leg. "That episode marked the last of the troubles at the station, but hostili tics did not cease at my home. At night attempts were made to rob the place, and this necessitated my sleep ing under the counter, which I did for three months. But I could not prevent broken windows. These cow ardly acts were not done by reputable citizens, who, nevertheless, tried more cffectlvo means of forcing mo from my position. Several petitions against me were sent to Washington, but Presi dent Lincoln remained my stanch friend. "After a few months tho chief an noyances ceased, and the only trouble I had was with the Imperfect mall sys tem, for which some peoplo blamed me." Although 90 years old, tho aged post mistress still rotalns her position. Before tho, end of this year, tele phonic communication will have beer established between the cities of Ital) and Switzerland. Miss Lillie Degenkolbe, Treasurer South (End Society of Christian Endeavor, 3 141 'Michigan Ave., Chicago, 111., Cured by Xydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. " Dear Mrs. PiNKiiAii : When life looked brightest to me I sustained a hard fall and internal complications were the result. I was considerably inflamed, did not feel that I could walk, and lost my good spirits. I spent money doctoring without any help, when a relative visited our home.
