The foundation OF a beautiful COM
plexion is strong stomach. The
strongest stomachs are never large.
Soup is the best tonic for a weak organ.
Its object is stimulation, inauguration,
consolation. This food, taken as an
introduction for breakfast, lunch and
dinner, will very soon tone up weak
muscles. Nothing should be eaten with
this vegetable cocktail not even cracker
crumbs. About the worst beginning for
meal is fresh bread. Throw a hand

Curative Cold Bath.

People who have nervous prostration,
headaches. the blues or dyspepsia, who
take cold easily, who are subject to irri-
liability, who lead sedentary lives, who
need their wits about them all the time,
and who are not making the progress
they desire, should get addicted to the
cold bath habit. 1t Is not only cleansing,
but curative, stimulating, encouraging
and invigorating. 1t is brain Frightening,
nerve-soothing Notwithstanding and the
best treatment ever taken for the COM
plexion, digestion and disposition.

Mother. Never Take Thi. Advice.

To the Editor:
In reply to q poor mothers letter wish to
say that she has my sympathy and advice. II she
takes 1t. and that is to rid herself at once OF a
son who prefers the life Of bum in a liquor
store. drinking beer and eating free lunches. to
some lucrative employment that would help his
mother to pay the rent and make ends meet.
It's evident from this Poor Mothers letter that
hlr son is on the road to ruin. and that she is
powerless to save him. and the more she en-
courages him in idieness the sooner he is likely
to get there. sYMPATHlZER.

EmoIIients for the Skin,

"A woman's hands and face are her
own to do what she likes with them, but
II you wish my candid advice, here it is:
Have Just as little to do with oils,
creams, greases and 'compleXioning' as
possible. Skin foods are worse than rub
bish, for they produce superfiuous hair,
which nothing but shaving can overcome.
Glycerine burns some skins and darkens
others; cold cream will make the face
as yellow as the wax 1t contains, and
should only be used in removing grease
paint; like vaseline and glycerine, cold
creams eventually convert the delicate
down on a ladv's face into vigorous
growths Of hair. The very fact that these
emollients are constantly used by hair
dressers and BARRIERS should be sufficient
warning against them for the face and
hand toilet. The only food the skin
needs is fresh air and pure blood. Steam
ing the face is unnatural, produces sore
ness and beard effects. The best rem
edies are exquisiteness, neatness, pure
CASTLE soap, bran. corn or almond meal
