Homemade Cold Cream.

Cold cream made at home is above
suspicion of materials, and it is quite
easy to prepare. Cut fine mutton tallow
into bits and put it into saucepan
without any water. Set the saucepan
in jar OF boiling water, and let it re-
main until the fat is thoroughly "fried''
out of the tallow Strain through a fine
sieve, and while still warm, stir in tea
spoonful of the essence of camphor in
the porpotion of one teaspoonful Of cam
phor to every cup of the tallow. Next,
a table spoonful of your favorite per
fume and stir until all is a understanding

| the ice over night 1t will keep indef-
nitely and will be found one OF The
| best remedes in the world for skin that

| little costume which grandmother had
| and which may be dainty initiated, was
the use of empty egg shell for the recep-
ton of the cold cream. To prepare the
shell, make small opening in one end
of an egg and pour out the contents.
| While the shell is still moist pour in the
camphorated kcream and set away to
harden. The egg shell may be tied with
ribbons and hung by the eide of the tot

Questions and Answers

Has there not been a table compiled by some
one showing a woman's chance to marry at va
rious ages2 By giving It's essential points you
will oblige, AN OLD MAID.
A woman's chance to marry at from 10
to 20 years Of age is said to be 144 per
cent. From 20 to rs the chance is in
creased to 81 per cent: from 25 to 80 it
diminishes to is; from 80 to 35, to 15a
per cent. Froms35 to 40 the chances oil
an unmarried woman sink to 81 per cent;
from 40 to Do a still further diminution
is seen, her chance being but 2a. From
45 to so the old maids chance OF getting
husband is but three-ejghths Of l per
cent, while from 80 to IS she is supposed
to have but one fourth of per cent of a
chance. 1t should, however, be added
that the table of averages does not apply
to widows. Accurate statisticians, who
would not be caught in mistake for the
world, affirm that a widow OF any age
has at least 76 spinster drawing power,
and some place her figure up to 50. The
widows chances at any age are. there
fore, rs to SO times better than that of
spinster.

In regard 10 granting the right Of way
to an electric compGny to construct a
track on the National pike through to
