washing the Face.

Helen Herbert In The Household
There are some who sect to washing the
face often, especially with soap, thinking
this an injury to the complexion. But those
who have made II speciality of skin diseases
say no part of the body needs soap so much; i;
that the face, being constantly exposed to
dust, collects so much it Is not enough to
wash it in clear water. They say IL soap
makes the face shiny, as so many claim, IL
only shows that it is the more needed, and
that the work of drying after the bath has
not been properly performed! The face,
however, should not be wet Immediately be-
fore or after going out Its most thorough
ablution should be performed at night, be-
fore going to bed, and the following method
should be observed in tho process:
Fill basin with set, warm water, lather
medium size sponge with good soap, and
wash the face carefully. Then take fresh
water, without soap, and wash again with
the hands, and rub thoroughly with Turk
ish or crash towel until the face is dry and
tingling. This will do much toward improv-
ing and preserving the complexion; and the
little, vexatious, black spots, called aflesh
worms" will usually disappear after a time,

Fashion at q Funeral.
[Chicago Herald.l

They had the poor woman In q $50 coffin.
The beautiful bunch of white roses in the one
hand that was exposed did not conceal the
marks Of toll on her fingers, the calloused
places, tho distended joints and the rough
skin. Her iron gray hair was neatly brushed
down on the sides Of her wrinkled forehead
and the black silk gown folded so gracefully
about her was full Of luster, brand new, and
evidently expensive. There were ten hacks
for friends Of the family, and the hearse was
driven by man in livery and had eight
costly plumes ON top.
How natural she looked, and what a lively
funeral, says woman who had known the
family.
AHow unn atural she looked and what an
inhuinan thing that funeral was" said a
male cynic who accompanied her,
@Whyr
because. There was good woman, a
bard working wife and mother, who never
had ride in hack, whose fingers never
pressed a flower and who never wore silk.
She didn't have time and didn't have money.
Now look ut her. Flowers rare and sweet in
her dead hanis. lots OF carriages following
her hearse and costly shroud for body
which IN lie was deemed none too good for q
SO-csnt worstsd A queer world this, which
ignores fashion in life and falls . blind yo-
