deprecate any such radical change as It's de-
feat would entail, have as yet rendered no aid

carried on without involving legitimate nut

White Hands.
Tea Table Talks.

lea dple alhS.
Ipromised to tell you about the care
of the hands. Always remember that
what is known as dead white" hand
is undesirable; nothing that indicates
ill health is beautiful. The hand should
be white, with a flush of pink showing
through. especially at the finger tips.
1t should be firm and well shaped. and
should be able to grasp a friends hand
all, it should never have an air of help
leSsness. After the finger tips have
been held in hot water for short time
the nails should be carefully trimmed
will. pair of sharply pointed scissors
kept for the purpose. In shape the nail
should resemble the half moon; the
pointed style is bad form.
Tight sleeves, tight gloves, and even
tight cOrSetS will make the hands red.
Sometimes clOse-fitting bracelet will
have the same effect. One of the SIM
plest and best methods of making the
hands white is to mOiSten them well at
night with glycerine or vaseline and
draw on pair of gloves. This must be
done for many night, and to stop, even
for little while, may counteract the
good effect of weeks of care. Soft un
dressed kid gloves ale best, and they
may be purchased cheaply if one
chooses an questionable color. They
must he at least two sizes too large or
they will do exactly what you are try
ing to prevent-cause the blood to rush
to the hands. Why do [ prefer vase
line? Because, my dear Kitty, some
skins are so sensitive that glycerine
actually makes them brown and some
times causes a painful eruption. If,
however, glycerine has been tried with
good results, prefer it to anything else,
for, like the dear little girls in the
nursery rhyme, when it is good it is
very, very good"

method of whitening the hands, but |
