Contrary to the general notion, -
said well known chemist, good toilet
soap is the best preventive against
chapped hands that can be used.
don't mean its general use in wash
ing, but as salve or balm, just as you
would apply camphor ice or vaseline.
While the common soap generally used
for cleaning about the house is of an
alkali nature and chaps the skin terri
bly,, a good toilet soap is neutral and
acts as balm to the irritated skin. In

great number of times day At first

naturally tender, chapped easily, MAX
ing large cracks in the flesh which made
it dangerous for me to work in acids.
At last | discovered by covering my
hands with good toilet soap after I had
washed them-rubbing it well into the
skin-that l not only prevented chap
ping, but kept my hands in elegant
condition. Vaseline and salves are very
good, but none of them can do the work
of first class toilet soap. As said,
toilet soap is neutral. A person could
eat it without injury. Why, many of
the pills which are prescribed for you
are made out of nothing more than tot
let soap. "--Pittsburg Dispatch.

in the school the sight there
presented was to all more than
a revelation. They were delighted to
see the vast throng of earnest young
men and women engaged enthusiastic
ally in acquiring knowledge. The eff
! ficient work of the teachers was also
very pleasing to the visitors and they
we're indeed delighted with what they
had seen and learned, so much so that
they enthusiastically pronounced the

institution in all Zion.

held. There was prayer and song, an
address of welcome and other speeches.

Messrs Snow and Sharp visited Presi

unable to get out, and had long
and confidential chat with him.
They were told of the financial
loads the institution has to carry.
They could see the noble work it is
doing and realized that it is sinful to
hamper such work in any way. Presi-
dent Smoot was relieved greatly by the
positive assurance that he and his aids
who are carrying the institution would
receive help and that the academy
would very soon be lifted from any
financial ruin that is now threatening
it and be placed high and dry on a solid
tinanci al foundation, so that it may 90

Soft Words,

One of the most curious of current
beliefs is that of hypocrisy lurking in
pleasant manners and sincerity in those
that are rough or stern. It seems a
relic of our Puritan forefathers, but it
certainly is out of place today. One is
foolish, or very innocent, to give heed
to more than the letter of society cour-
tesies. But, on the other hand, the
wish to please is good sign in itself,
and the willingness to hurt, by word
as well as by deed, is bad sign in it
self. Selfishness is, far more than n.y.
pocrisy even, a usual failing. And
there is small hope for the habitually
self absorbed rough speaker, while there
is always chance that the soft manner
may sink into the heart. To those who
tell us that soft words butter no pars-
nips, we may retort, oil is also better
for a wig than vinegar. If proverbs
mean anything, it is because there is
one for every side of a question. --Ex-
change.
