but your boat has no sooner maze
bit of offiug than the wind blows round
your waist, and seems trying to cut
you in two. In going, therefore, for
either a sail or drive, do not forget
your msckintosh; and should you ex-
pect to be out after sunset, take your
feather boa also. You are even better
provided thus than you would be with
an umbrella. l myself la6e all a

but l should be sorry to have our girls
look like that.
'1've got nothing on that will spoil. "
Yes, you have, miss. You have your
complexion. Many girl has had her
complexion ruined bv chill. 1 don't
refer to the effects of the wind or rain
beating in the face-that may even do
good; but to arrangement of the func-
tions of the liver, the stomach, and cir
culation. And from a arrangement of
this sort-neglected perhaps-often-
times date very many ruined complex
ions.
As to the liver, chill throws 1t out
OF gear by congesting it with the
blood; for the cold sends the blood
away from the surface of the body,
and it must go somewhere. No serious
mischief may occur to the liver, but
for time, at sll events, it is less able
to perform its duties cheerfully, and q
slight degree of bilIousness is the re-
suit, with lowness of spirits, and prob
ably dyspepsia. The bile is not prop
erly eliminated from the blood. The
eye is less clear-in some cases it is
muddy-and the bile lies on the under
skin OF the face; sometimes, indeed, if
you tighten the skin, say. of the cheek,
with the fingers of both hands, before
the glass, you will note that 1t Is not
so white as 1t was wont to be.
Some antibiIious medicine would
help to remedy this defect, if taken at
once; then the morning cold or tepid
tub, and plenty of fresh air, would
carry off all the bad effects.
But the chill may produce disturb.
ance in circulation, with or without
some degree of indigestion; and this in
its turn may cause the disfiguring mis-
chief commonly known as pimples.
Why, even one or two of these is suffi-
cient TO spoil the fair face of beauty.
Butindependent ofthis, some girls have
a tendency to dcne-the doct Or's name
for this trouble. It may be produced
from a too watery condition of the
blood, or from Indigestion, worry,
excitement, etc. In such cases the
cure must consist in restoring the bal
ance Of the nervous system, and getting
rid of dyspepsia.
Sea bathing, if it can be had, has N
excellent action for good on the skin
and blood, and therefore tends TO cnre
acne. Great care mast be taken with
the diet while dyspepsia lasts. The
same kind of food will not suit every
one, but it may be taken as a general
rule that sloppy food is injurious to
people with weak stomachs. Even soup
itself had often better be avoided. A
little good, tender, solid food is prefer.
able, time of course being taken to eat
it. But If you determine TO regulate
the diet, your living by rule must be
boldly maintained day after day for
many weeks, and strict attention given
to the rules of hygiene which l have so
often laid down.
Those little black specks or dots,
called by some worms in the face, may
sometimes be cured by rubbing in
every night little calomel.
When there is anything the matter
with the face, L warn you to beware of
face powders; for if you clog up the
sweat glands, or sebaceous glands, a
pimple is almost sure to come on. A
cooling face lotion for ordinary purposes
may be made as follows-Elderhower
water eight ounces, glycerine water
one ounce, California borax one
quarter of an ounce, aad a little
oil of lavender to suit taste. Cold
cream or rose cream are both equally
cooling.
Now, there is trouble called Acne
rOSacea, and this is really the technical
term for red nose. All that 1 have
said above concerning the constitution

l am sorry 1 have no panacea for the

sometimes extends over one side of the
face. In all bad cases you ought to
put yourself under the treatm. Mt of
your family doctor, and the sooner

To clear complexion from "muddi-

edy is as follows:-To pint of filtered
rain water add wineglassful of lime
juice and a few drops of altar of
roses. Shake we'll. To use it you
simply damp the face and hands with
it, and let it stay on for a few minutes.
This may be done three times a day.
The lotion is a cooling one, easily

have thought about such a plan. He
would simply have sat down and-and

AT any rate, IN ali our trials, and even
sicknesses, it Is always best to-look
