HINTS ON WASHING THE HANDS.

Some philosophy" is useful in even so simple
n matter as washing the hands. Ii any lady
doubts II. let her, with microscope, examine the
surface to be cleansed by water, aud she will be
interested ut the discoveries made. Instead OF n
smooth surface of skin, presenting when unwash-
ell dingy appearance, there will be seen rough
corrugated surface, with deep, irregular burrows,
In which the foreign particles are deposited like
earth among the rough payng.stones of n street
II they lie loosely, II would be an easy matter to
dislodge them with little cold water; but the
pores, the waste ipes Of the body, arc continually
discharging into these open drains perspiration
and oil, which by evaporation become q cement
to hold the particles Of dust etc !, and to remove
them requires both chemical aud mechanical &C
tion. Warm water softens this cement, expands
the burrows, and makes the skin pliable; so that
by rubbing, the soil is disturbed and partially re-
moved. But chemistry must aid little before
the process is complete; soap is therefore added,
the alkal Of which unites with the oily matter,
and the whole is then easily disposed Of. The
towel is useful, because its soft threads of hbers

be soft and pliablc. Flannel is preferable to cot

Harsh, strongly alkaline soap should be avoided !,

the skin, and makes II chap or crack Cold
