A Study of the Decollete.

Women who wear decollete gowns
comprise three classes, but one of which
is justified and wears it with propriety
The women "to the manner born" edu-
Gated to it, taught the propriety of such
exposure along with her catechism,
wears this dress as a soldier does his
uniform-as matter of form, of duty,
of necessity and of habit. Such women
wear this exposeful garment with no
more notion of indelicacy than is enter
tained by the dusky belle of the Sand
wich islands when she makes her debut
in string OF beads, cotton apron and
clinking anklets.
The second class, not so well warranted
in following the fashion, are the women
not educated to it, ladies whose early
life and training were not in decollete
circles, but who instead have imbibed
much of the stern puritanism, or prudish-
ness, or provincialism, if you will, or
orthodox teaching, of modest example
and of rural simplicity.
The woman whose sudden rise of posi-
.tion tempts her into an unaccustomed
barring of neck and arms against her
conscience commits an improperly.
The third class are the vain women,
the silly and coquettish women, the
women who have perfect figures and
malformed intellects. These are the
women who have in the eagerness for
admiration disgraced the social regalia
and made it a reprOach.
The important thing is not how the
body but how the mind is clothed.

Rules for a Clear Skin.


You want to keep your skin nice all
summer? Well, then, here are some
rules for you:
Don't battle in hard water; soften il
with few drops of ammonia or little
borax.
Don't bathe your face while it is very
warm, and never use very cold water
for it.
Don't wash your face when YOU are
travelling unless it is with little alcohol
and water or a little vaseline.
Don't attempt to remove dust with
cold water; give your face hot bath,
using plenty of good soap, then give ii
a thorough rinsing with water that
has had the chill taken out of it.
Don't rub your face with a coarse
towel; just remember it is not made of
cast-iron, and treat it as you would the
finest porcelain-gently and delicately.
Don't use sponge or linen rag fol-
your face; use instead flannel one.
Don't believe you can get rid oi
wrinkles by filling in the crevices with
powder. Instead give your face a Rus
sian bath every night; that is, bathe it
with water SO hot that you wonder how
you can stand it, and then, a moment
later, with cold water that will make
1T glow with warmth dry it with soft
towel and go to bed, and you ought to
sleep like baby while your skin is
growing firmer and coming from out OF
the wrinkles, and you are resting.
