Violet Bowersox writes, under date OF
June IS, from East Miggs:
What are your habits regarding care
of complexion and skin? How do you
manage to look always so young? Could
you give US your programme for pre-
serving so wonderfully your elastic and
rosy appearance!
Certainly there can be no reason why
of valuable experience, especially when
it is so useful to good health and an at
tractive appearance.
| arise in the early morning, bidding
dull care be gone, and almost at once
proceed to take tepid bath of twenty
minutes, followed by shower bath of
five minutes and rest of thirty minutes.
The face and throat are then subjected
to a gentle friction of elder flower water
mixed with half goblet of warm water.
This removes all impurities from the
pores and gives the surface clear, ivory
hue.
| got onto this in Paris.
Scented oris powder is then rubbed
into the hair and brushed out again,
taking care not to leave any IF it at the
temples or nape of the neck.
A delicate cream, containing the juice
of the lettuce, is then spread over the
face and throat. After ten minutes it is
removed with linen cloth.
This is said to remove the drawn OF
tired look contracted in society SO often
while trying to think of something to
say which will not betray evidences OF
| thought.
Valontine-a mixture Of rice, powder
and bismuth-is next applied with great
care, producing clear alabaster white
ness, with trace of luster, and tonin9

which is liable to come upon those who
allow the use of strawberry on the top
of their cocktail.
The eyebrows are then smoothed with
baby brush, leaving touch of farde
in dieu. Then with leather estampe
lay under each eye a delicate shadow,
which increases its brilliancy and gives
also touch of gentle remorse, which in
society indicates that wealth has made
one bldse.
The above is the secret Of my young
and well rounded appearance, and give
it here that all may, if they will. be
beautiful.
Sometimes when have not the time
for the above programme, especially
while here in North Carolina, simply
battle in the branch, afterward running
up and down an unfrequented path for
twenty minutes before dressing, and
avoiding so far as possible the haunts of

way, find.
Then l come back to the branch, rub
briskly with nose bag, dress and begin
my literary work for the day.
Any one can be well and beautiful it
he will obey these simple rules.

Kingston seems to be out Of the question,
Raceland and Banquet may be in at the
finish. In fact, it is understood that Mr..
Dryer has picked the last two to repre-
sent his stable in the great race. Race
land has wlntered splendid!y and with TO
pounds cannot be considered overbur-
iened, for he rode to victory in the
Suburban of 1850 with the same impost.
Banquet was in the great Brooklyn handi-
cap TO the finish last year, and landed
fourth after most plucky fight for the
place. He has wintered well. and his
4-year-old record will probably surprise
the public. Nomad is not a likely starter,
although he has wintered well and will
make most favorable showing as a
3-year-old this season. The j. \. and 4. II.
Morris contingent may prove after all TO
contain the winner. Terriiier and Russell

Her Charming Mannerisms

sions.

The Office girl is peculiar type of the
fair sex. Yes, she is quite unlike her
sisters who follow other vocations, or
who, perchance, have no vocation at all.
but who devote their energies. time and
talents to soclety's cause. The office
girl is chic, attractive and, in way,
puissant. She is conscious of her pow
ers to the utmost. and seldom loses an
opportunity to exercise them to her per-
sonal ACKNOWLEDGMENT. And who can
blame her? In that way she manages
to extract the greatest portion
of the pleasures, as well as the
profits, of her situation. Other
wise her daily routine would necessarily
become onerOus and dstasteful, and
she would be ultimately driven from
the field in absolute discouragement..
The Office girl, let it be related, is not
confined to the typewriter nor the stem
ographer. She is quite often entirely
ignorant Of the mysterious and puzzling
curves and hooks, and never touches
the typewriter. In other words. there
are office girls who are often employed
as company" and for her abilities IN
entertaining customers.
The office girl is found in every office
building in st. Paul. Her sweet face
and charming mannerlsms. says her en-
ployer, have their specific value. or
course her salary isn't of the princely
sort. 1t is usually tempered by the
generosity and income of the ''old man,"
as she invariably styles her employer.

favor of the sweet thing bad made sac
rifices.
But there are moments when she pre-
fers to be alone. She goes out for q
walk all alone, and she often may be
seen promenading the more popular
streets of the city. She gets on and off
a street car while in motion with the
same grace and ease that she displays
IN all her exploits. She patrQlizes the
restaurants where she is Most liable to
encounter some gallant of gentleman
who is always ready to take her check,
and she looks upon such courtesies as a
matter of course, for, if she didn't, one
fears that her luncheon wouldbe much
palmer very often, for her purse
will not often warrant Injuries.
She is so full of mannerisms
that they are quite noticeable at the
table. Unlike all other girls, her daily
practices have given her that business
like and brisque air. This is particu-
larly noticeable at the table. She eats
with that rapidity that is so often dis
played at the ordinary railway station.
and she often diSdains tine use of the
fork. but handles her knife very deftly.
The Office girl is always bright and
pretty, else she would never find en-
ployment. Often her employer makes
| love to her and it is not infrequent that
he is rejected, although now and then
the Office girl becomes the mistress of a
st. Anthony hill residence in this way.
She is bold girl, and fears nothing.
And TO prove her absolute independence
she sometimes has her boots Shined on
the street corners with the same air OF
nOnchalance that she always displays,
but this rare sight however.
