A single person of a sour , sullen
temper what a dreadful thing it is to
have such a one in the house. There
is not myrrh and aloes and chloride of
of lime enough in the world to disinfect
a single home of such a nuisance as
that. No riches , no elegance of mien ,
no beauty of face can ever screen such
a person from utter vulgarity. There
is one thing which rising persons hate
the reputation of more than all others ,
and that is vulgarity ; but trust me ill
temper is the vulgarest thing that the
lowest born and 511 bred man can ever
bring to his home. It is one of the
worst forms of impiety.

How to Keep the Skin Smooth.
An inferior quality of soap may in
jure the skin , owing to an excess or
alkali or other irritating substance that
it contains. I have seen soap that
would smart the skin the moment it
came in contact with it. Using too
much soap must also be guarded ]
against. With good dietetic habits
and reasonably clean surroundings , very
little soap is needed , even for the face
and hands. Washing or bathing with
hard water will also make the skin
rough. Pure , soft water , free from
sediment , is the best. The use of very
hot or cold water , especially in the
winter , will make the skin chap ; or fac
ing a strong wind , and particularly a
cold wind , will tell upon the face , all
the more if there be dust other impuri
ties in the atmosphere. After such
exposure if the face be washed in tepid
water and a simple cold cream applied
with the hand and well rubbed in , ill
effects may be averted , or quickly cured.
Sweet cream will have the same effect ;
it is equally good for removing sun
burn and at the same time very cooling.

THE New York Herald has experienced -
porienced a sudden change o
heart. Ten days ago it wautet
protection hit between the eyes
because it was inipovoiishing the
workingmen of England and send
ing them over in swarms to take
advantage o our higher wages
Now it censures the "rather fresh'
young editor of the Atlana Const !
tution for calling for the immed
iate enactment of promised free
trade legislation. "The people
don't want the McKinley law re
pealed ! " says the Herald wjth em
phasis. "To repeal the law or to
chase congress on to tampei
hastily with its provisions wouk
disturb business , depress stocks
unsettle values , upset industries
and throw the country into such <
panic as it has not experienced
since 1857. The people have
just won a great victory , and the )
don't want it turned into a great
disaster by excited politicians
eager free traders , youthful edi
tors , aspiring orators or meddle
some pamphleteers.Vu have
just passed through one spell ol
excitement , and don't want anothei
forced upon us. For heaven's
sake give us a rest ! Let things
take their own course. Let wel
enough alone. " The last appeal
for a continuation of the regubli-
can policy is given the special
emphasis of italics. Will the
Herald kindly inform a wondering
nation what in the name of com
mon sense it does believe about the
tariff , anyway ? Journal.
THE ' rioting" at Homestread.
which is filling the news columns
of the papers , will have little bear
ing on the final settlement of af
fairs one way or another. The
"riots" appear to be nothing more
than street fights , and nothing
more is at stake in them than the
personal pique of individual work-
ingmeu , both in and out of the
mills. Union workingmen and
non-union workingmen in othei
parts of the world should not "take
up" the quarrel at Homestead ;
they have nothing in common
with it. If the union men have
in their ranks , as they claim they
have , skilled workingmen whose
places cannot be adequately filled ,
they will win their fight and their
organization will help them in
winning it. If the non-unionists
can do their work as well as the
union workmen , they will be given
an equal show , and there's an end
of it. They may quarrel and
"riot" for a year or two , but the
"best man" will win though not
at all by force.

LOXDO.V , Nov. 1(5. ( Thomas Xcill ,
otherwise known us Dr. Neil I Cream ,
the poisoner of Matilda Clover and
several other jfirls , was hanged at
Newgate at 1) ) o'clock this morning.
Shortly before ! ) o'clock the authori
ty to hang Neill was handed by the
high sheriff to Hangman Hillington in
accordance with the legal form and at
three minutes to 9 o'clock liillington ,
accompanied by an assistant who
carried pinioning material , entered
the cell of the condemned man , where
he found the prison chaplain minis
tering to Neill. Without a moment's
delay the hangman deftly pinioned
Neill by passing a broad belt around
his arms , securing his elbows with two
straps fastened to the belt behind. The
condemned man did not titter a word.
The procession to the gallows was
then formed , headed by the chief
warden , who was followed by the
condemned man with the chaplain
beside him. Neill walked firmly and
his face showed no emotion.
When the scaffold was rea'ched the
white cap was drawn over the con
demned man's eyes and IHllintrton
guided him to , the trap door under the
beam from which ? noose was dang
ling. The cap was then drawn down
so that it covered the chin , rendering
it impossible for Neill to see
the final preparations for his death.
His legs were pinioned with a
strap fastened belcw the knees. The
noose was then dropped over his head
and adjusted around his neck , the ring
being fixed behind his left ear. In
another second the hangman stepped
to the rear , pressed a lever and the
trap fell. Neill's body dropped five
feet. IHllingtonand the other persons
who saw the execution concur in the
opinion that death was instantaneous.
A medical register his been kept in
Neill's cell sinre his condemnation. It
shows that he onty slept a few hours
each night. Last night he went to
bed at H o'clock , but did not have a
single hour of unbroken sleep ,
The body was cut down at 10
o'clock. A cast of the head was then
made and at noon a jury viewed the
body and returned a formal verdict
in accordance with the medical testi
mony that death had been caused by a
fracture of the neck. The body was
then placed in a perforated coilin , into
which a sack of quicklime was poured ,
and was buried under the ilagstone in
the corridor.
Neill was a Canadian and during his
life had been in close contact with the
police of various cities in the United
States and Canada. In Canada Neill ,
or as he was known there , Dr. Thomas
Cream , studied medicine at McGill col
lege , Montreal , graduated in 1870 , be
gan practice at Kingston , Ontario ,
and had been there only a short time
when he was suspected of illegal prac
tices. Public opinion forced him to
leave Kingston , and he went to
Hamilton , Ontario. He was shortly
afterward arrested on a charge of
Criminal malpractice and moved to
Chicago , where he was arrested
on a similar charge. This
crime was proved against him and he
was sentenced to imprisonment for
life. lie served thirteen years , was
released on account of ill health and
went to England in September of last
3'eai' and took apartments in the Lam
beth place road. For a time he was a.
student at the St. Thomas hospital.
