Rules for a Clear Skin

You want to keep yonr skin nice
all Summer Well, then, here are
SOM rules for you.
Don't battle in hard water; soften
it with few drops of ammonia, or
a little borax.
Don't battle 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 a
little alcohol and water, or IA little
vaseline.
Don't attempt to remove dust
with cold water; give your face d
hot bath, using plenty of good soap
then give it a thorough rinsing
with water that has had the chill
taken of of it.
Don't rub your face with 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 a linen rag
for your face; choose instead a flan-
mel one.
Don't believe you can get rid OF
wrinkles by filing in the crevices
with powder. Instead give your
face a Russian bath every night;
that is, battle it with water so hot
that you wonder how you can stand
it, and then, minute after, with
cold water thussInakingit glow with
warmth; dry it with soft towel
and go to bed, and you ought to
sleep like a baby while your skin is
growing firmer and coming out OF
the wrinkles, and you are resting

To use tcrse and homely phrase
my friends, let us mind our own
business. There is enough to de-
eide in our own lives; let us be I'M
mindful of the affairs of others, ex-
cept in so far as we can be helpful
and of real benefit. Let us be
charitable in all our conclusions.
mindful of the fact that we so often
need the cloak of charity ourselves.
AS we would wish to be judged, so
let us judge others-always with a
kindly spirit even with belief in
the better part of self. Strew a
flower where others throw a stone.
Fill your life so full of sunshine
that evil reports will find no place
where you are. Stop petty scan
dial by some pretty story of womanly
kindness. Make your life a bright

Pounding Bones for Poultry

1t is very difficult to pound bones
for poultry, yet there is nothing
that the hens will relish so we'll as
fresh bone from the butcher broken
into bits. Place the bones in the
oven of the stove, or lay them di-
rectly on the hot Goals, if YOU prefer
and they can then easily be pound
ed with a hammer. A Hat stone
may be used to pound on. Burnt
or parched bones are fully equal to
am other for the hens.

Grass Plots for Poultry.

If YOU have laid off a grass plot
for hens, one of the most objection
able features is the dried grass from
last years crop. Burn the plot
oyer, so as to clean it off thorough
~, and the hens will be less liable
to become crop bound, as they will
eat the long dried grass if it is diff
cult to find green food early in the
season. If convenient, it would be
well to divide the plot and SOW the
seed of oats, mustard or anything
that will serve the purpose, and
grow some kind of green food,
changing from one yard to the
other as occasion requires.

ton is not very certain Of the ad-
vantages of diluting milk with wa
ter to hasten cream rising. There
is a more rapid rising, but poorer

''There is possibility of being east

luting the milk. The cream not
only rises more quickly, but is
thinner-that is, contains less fat
