TO HAVE PRETTY HANDS.
Simple Methods by Which They May bs
Kept Soft and Whit


Any woman can have pretty hands
who is willing to go to the least trou-
BILE with them. The hand is easily
nodded and can be shaped or whitened
or the texture changed almost at the
will OF the owner. In the first place
the hand has rounded palm and Ave
graceful fingers that are bound to be
pretty, no matter how treated. The
only things to be done are to make the
flesh soft, the skin white and the nails
an oval which shall be becoming to the
style of the hand. These are the most
difficult things to accomplish, sp-i~-, !,
ore knows exactly how, and the&
IT the secret has been learned.
ultimate success there need be no doubt.
The best hand bleach is pure soap,
Get enough to fill teacup when
shaved finely--castile is very good for
this-and melt with a pint OF water
until it is n thin soft soap. Add
little cologne and set away to cool II
q big jar. Now, when washing the
hands, lather thickly with this soft
soap and hold them in water which Is
only warm. Wash off the soap with
hot wlter and after shaking the hands
well dry them in box of cracked ont
meal. Rub softly until thoroughly dry
and then dust them lightly with q
towel, and If in one week the hands
are not beautifully white they may be
given up as the only hands in the
world that are wholly incorrigible.
Bony hands, even, can be improved.
The skin of the hands is very suscepti-
bic to oils, and If mutton tallow, cream
OR quantity of good almond oil is
diligently rubbed in twice day, fot
ten minutes alta time, in month the
hands will begin to be plump ard
pretty. Vaseline is not so good fr
this, us ON some skins it is apt to pro.
ducc light though undesirable growth
OF hair Lord Eyron's old recipe for
pretty nail still holds good: "a rose
leaf with crescent in it," And r.
most rose leaves are oval let the mai.
be us much that shape as possib' >; and
II you can shape it SO. let it curve AZ
the tip exactly as it does at the end
where the moon" lies. This will ac,
complish the oval. Aftc. woman has
made her hands soft and white and
,netty she wants something else. ana
that something is the polish which still, /,
continues to be fashionable among sc.I
ciety beauties, in spite OF the verdict
that the maniurcs are against it. II
takes longer to manicure O polished
pail than IT does dull one, but thers
y no doubt that It q iporu eleaanl.

two years my elder, was at the bar.
We occupied suburban villa resi-
aence-rather superior to villa; it had
large garden in front and drive to
the door, and a terrace on w.iiJh the
drawing room window opened. We
liked to regard ourselves as cut above
suburban villa people. We kept car
riage and pair, and had butler, and
had a great-aunt who was an honora-
BILE, and so l believe we were what we
believed ourselves to be-
My father had been in South Africa.
He had made his fortune in the Kim
berley diamond mines, and had made it
somewhat rapidly, having had the good
fortune to find number of stones of
great size and good water.
One of tho finest he had not disposed
Of. He kept it as specimen, or as a
nest egg. 1t was rather u cause of
tnxiety TO us, as he carried it about
bith him in his purse. He would not
trust it in the house. He thought it
safer on his person. So it might have
been, had he not been wont to produce
it after dinner, as we'll as at other times
When servants were present, and show
t, and expatiate on it's beauty and
value.
We had butler whom we did not
like. We called him "The Bandit,
from his wild and savage appearance
His dress was right enough, but he has
a forbidding face.
He conducted himself harmlessly
nough till on one occasion he got
:-unk at a dinner party we gave. Then
ny father dismissed him, and he took
up his residence not far from ou,
house, where there was sort OF sluu
inhabited by persons of no very fixed
occupation.
My father refu ed him character. o,
rather he said IL. Ut ii he were called on
for a characte" he would state the
the truth concerning the man. and not

me to hook it.

one. So hooked it again and told no
one. 1 was ashamed to tell the
truth-that was dead sick of civiliza-
ton, that / loathed it to the toes. But
l was; so bolted.
II sold my diamond in New York.
BY the way, I've not made any money
this time; I've lost it. By the way,
also, I've had chap put over me in
the rancho that was my butler here
once; 1--WE called him The Bandit He
told me he'd been accused of having
murdered me, and the accusation had
hung on him, and forced him to leave
Old England He is not bad chap,
he advanced ne the money to come
home, and seat his respects to you,
Ethel, and asked me to tell you that he
did not rob and murder me and conceal
my corpse"
"oh, papa! Are you now home for
good?"
Eyes, think so-but can't say. I
shall have to hook it again some day;
but that will be into another world al
