How to Stay Pretty.

M rs. Browning.

Tepid water is preferable for every season of
the year. Milk baths have been in favor from
time immemorial with ladies. and nothing is
better than daily hot bath of milk. Mime.
Talien was among the historical women who
bathed in milk, to which she added crushed
strawberries to give it an agreeable perfume. [
have also heard of an old lady of eighty who re-
tanned a girlish complexion like cream and roses
by always washing in the juice of crushed straw
berries and nothing else. But can, FORUM
ately, keep our skins healthy and fair without
resortng to these extreme measures.
For the full-length bath, bag of bran will
soften the water and make the skin deliciously
smooth and fair; but let me here remark that
bath il perfect in it's results without the long
and brisk friction of hands or a coarse towel
afterward. Friction not only stimulates circula-
ton, but it makes the flesh firm and polished.
like Parian marble. 1t is sometimes astonishing
to see the change made in ugly skin by fric-
ton, and any lady who wishes to possess
healthful body, firm to the touch and fair to the
eve, with the elasticity of youth well prolonged
into age. must give willingly of her strength to
the daily task of rubbing the body thoroughly
