Soft and W hito hands

Good Housekeeping: 4 woman whose
pretty hands are being ruined by wash
ing in hard water writes to ask rem
edy. Water can be easily softened
with few drops of amonia, or what
is better a small piece of lump borax.
Warm water into which enough borax
had been dissolved to make the water
feel little slippery when pressed be-
tween the thumb and finger is very
good for washing the hands. Hands
kept dirty are never smooth and white.
Absolute cleanliness is necessary.
Many people who do not work wash
their hands but seldom. The DAYS
accumulation of dirt is allowed to re-.
main on the hands at night. Upon
rising the hands are washed in cold
water. The possessor wonders why,
when she does no work, her hands do
not look any better, if as well as her
chambermald's The hands should
always be washed in warm soapsuds
before going to bed. White soaps are
safest. Highly scented and colored
soaps are almost invariably made from
rancid and ill-smelling fats. After the
hands are Thoroughly dried use few
drops of mixed glycerine and camphor,
which the druggist can prepare for
you. Drop into the palm of the hand
and rub on the hands. This will be
all that will be necessary to show de-
cided improvement.

A metropolitan Opera Box.

New York 7owm 7opics If any of
my lady readers has influence enough
with the authorities of the Metropoli-
tan Opera-House to obtain permission
to peep into Mr. Rockefellcr's box on
the grand tier let her use it at once.
The ante-room to the box is fitted up
in the most luxurious style; crimson
satin, plisse and tuf1ed, covers the walls
and ceiling, velvet carpet deadcn the
footsteps. and magnificent lounge,
with pillows. ETC., invites to rcpose-
especially when ''Parsifal'' or portions
of ode Meistersinger' are on. In u
corner is pretty cabinet, the contents
of which can only be guessed at. There
is door separating the ante-room
from the box, instead of portiere,
and the little window is provided with
a satin-covered shutter. A couple that
desired to shun Wagnerian noise and
the observation of their ncighbors
could ask for no more secluded, richer,
or more comfortable retreat.
