Winters Were Mild in Olden Days. {Special to The Indianapolis News. 1 Jeffersonvillr, December 8.—People around this part of the State, perhaps, alsb, in other parts, are usually dissatisfied if they do not have a hard and freezing winter by this time, and sadly refer to the good old times when therp was winter weather. Your correspondent has taken some pains to ascertain, from pioneers, what kind of winters the southern half of Indiana is entitled to. The- general information is that winters are, or rather were, almost always mild throughout, with only occasional freezes. There was seldom any heavy ice, and seldom heavy shows. It was sp during General Clark's celebrated winter expedition to Vincennes. Parrakeets formerly wintered in southern Indiana, which if a
proof of mild weather.

Miss Emma Connor, the pla ntiff, is the school teacher near Ladoga, who was advertised tor and wide in 1891 because of her plucky defense of toe national colon, which had been cut down by Starke, one of the patrons of the school. This drew upon her the venomous tongue of the defendant, who made free with her good name, and accused her of scandalous conduct with one of her pupils, a boy thirteen years old. The plaintiff is thirty-five. The teacher then instituted suit for damages, and Starke took a change of venae, claiming be could not get justice In Montgomery connty.

BEAUTY
Is the greatest gift God ever bestowed upon woman; for it both
delighteth the eye, contenteth the mind and winneth the good will and favor of all men. It is so deeply' implanted in the human heart that millions bow to it as something to fear as well as worship. ' • Its magical power operates everywhere. It takes the good man captive as well as the miscellaneous one. Masters and teachers of men, as well as children and scholars of life, bow at its shrine. Statesman, artist, poet
and merchant all pay homage to its supremacy.
EMPRESS JOSEPHINE FACE BLEACH
It has been in use more than one hundred years by the society ladies of Paris, and has been found a pleasant and permanent cure for Freckles, Pimples, Moth Patches, Blotches, Extreme Bedness, Acne, Eczema, Excessive Oiliness, Ta n, Sallo wness, Brown Spots, Blackheads and Rough ness. It does not give the face a faded-out or whitewashed appearance, as the name Bleach would imply, but restores the skin to its naturally youthful color, making it soft and fair as a babe's, leaving a tint as beautiful as the
blush of a red rose mipted with the dew of heaven. i$ distinct from all balms, creams, lotions, washes, etc., as it does not require continual
but is a permanent cure.
