Massage Crf ~ ~
Takes Away Shaving Soreness
A thick, fa'St growing: beard and a tender skin cause
trouble to many men.   An occasional massage with
Pompeian Cream not only takes away after shaving
discomfort, but gradually strengthens the skin and
enables it to bear the frequent use of the razor without
ill effect. Also cleanses the pores. 5ocand$i.ooperjar.

County In 1838.
This county, in 1833, of course, presented a very differeat picture Irom
what it docs at the present time. At
that time, tberev were only four yiK
lages, Ann Arbor, Yosilanti, Dfixter
and Saline. The land is described thus:
"Prairies, oak Openings and heavily
timbered land alternate throughout
the whole county, in which they are
eo agreeably diversified as to present
a? very beautiful and picturesque aspect to the traveller. Of timber is
found the beech, white wood, walnut,
maplo, butternut, red;" 'white'land black
oak, basswood, witli. a, great variety of
•the other kinds of forest trees. Mill
sites are numerous and many of them
are in progress of improvement for
manufacturing of various kinds;
though the capitalist might find many
unimproved that might be usefully
employed on the Raisin, the Huron
and its branches. Taken together the
county of Washtenaw, for agriculture
facilities of manufacture and beauty of
country generally is not exceeded by
any in the state.   Population 20,176."
Memorial to Mrs. Angell.
In Pekin, China, is a Woman's Bible
school erected in memory of Mrs.
James B. Angell and called the Angell
Bible school. It was completed and
occupied for the first time on last
Thanksgiving day and is in charge
of the Congregational mission board
Already a class of fourteen women are
at work in the school in charge of
iVliss Nellie Russell, who has had long
experience in work among Chinese
women.—Times. The building that
was erected is a two-story structure
It contains a prayer meeting room,
study and recitation rooms. The idea
of this school is to train Chinese to do
Christian work among their own people. This wus chosen as a fitting memorial tp Mrs.. AngeU because, of .her,
well known interest in missions aud of
her residence in China when her husband was ambassador there.
Has Backbone.
Mayor Hamilton of Ann Arbor, is a
man with a backbone and with courage
to strike at tbe root of evils. He has
himself made complaints against saloon keepers for violations of law, and
has given warning that he will vigorously enforce-the state law against
boys under 17 or students under 21
being allowed in billiard halls, bowling alleys or saloons. This will "get
rid of a state of affairs that has been a
serious evil, and Ann Arbor is fortunate in having a mayor with tome
sense of responsibility and courage to
execute, his oath of office.—"Ex." **■** "
