Ways of Washing the Face.

There are several wrong ways of wash.
ing the face and but one right. Towel,
flannel, sponge are all ont of place where
the face is concerned. The hands only
should be used. Doctor Wilson's direc-
tions are Fill your basin about two
thirds full with fresh water; dip your
face in the water, and then your hands.
Soap the hands well, and pass the seaped
hands with gentle friction over the whole
face. Having performed this part of the
operation thoroughly, dip the face in the
water second time, and rinse it com.
plettly; you may add very much to the
luxury OF the latter part of the opera
ton by having second basin ready with
fresh swater to perform a final rinse. 4
But the care OF the complexion requires
that not only the face, but the whole
body shall be daily subjected to the bath.
The sponge bath is, perhars. the best, and
the temperature of the water must be
by the sensations of the bather.
and by the season of the year. No one
can deny the charm of clear, sots eplor
in the cheeks and lips, and it must lie an
incorrigible compleSi IN, indeed, that
will not yield to the measures that
hare recommended. --[Casselrs Maya

Minnesota.

One of the lions OF Lake Minnetonka
is Crane Island. Nobody lives on it but
the cranes. And. singularIy enough.
you never see or hear o. crane on any
other island on the lake. But on Crane
Island, which is heavily wooded, there
are millions and millions and millions of
'em. The boats that ply on the lake run
close to this islanu and whistle to scare
up the cranes for the amusement of the
tourists. The cranes used to live in daily
terror of the whistles, and when they
were blown the startled birds would fly
up in dense clouds, shutting out the light
of the sun and making the whole lake
so dark that you couldn't see torch-light
procession on it. But they are more
accustomed to it now. When the hattie
Mays whistles were blown the other day
only a few of the birds came out. One
was very large, petulant old fellow,
who stretched himself above the tree
tops and said: cav, give us a rest
And several impairment young cranes
advised us to ''go and chaw iron," and
to Ego sun yourselves. But even this
was very amusing, and the passengers
enjoyed it immensely. There are cranes
on this island more than two hundred
years old. Some of them are sixteen feet
high.
