The Chrisrisn seal of a young woman of

our fashionable churches. Recently she
took a class of own, all over 2i years of

about 30 years old in the rear of the

look about his carefully arranged attire.

The Mustache.
The home or the mustache is in
Spain, ancll‘hem is the history of its
origin: After the Moors first inVaded
the country the Christian and Moe-
lem population became so mixed that
it was dificult to say which were
Moors and which Spaniards. The
Spaniards then hit upon a means by
which they could at once distinguish
their brethren. They did not shave
their lips any long 11', and they al-
lowed a tuft. Of hair to grow below
their under lips. so that their beards
formed the rude outline of a cross.
Thus the mustache became a symbol
of liberty and fraternity—National
Barber.
To prevent pale and delicate children
from lapsing into chronic invalids later
in life, they should take Ayer's Sarsspa-
rilla together with plenty of wholesome
food and outdoor exercise. What they
need to build up the system is good red
blood.
