Unlovely lips come from an unhealthy
stomach. Bad digestion will often
assert itself in broken or chapped lips,
sores in the corner of the mouth, fever
blisters and coated tongue. Chronic
sore mouths should be rubbed with
sweet oil or pure glycerine at night; in
the morning wash with solution of
alum or borax-a teaspoonful in a
tumblcr of water. Camphor ice is both
healing and cleansing. Good cold
cream is not bad salve. The receipt

There are no stones in it at all, it is
OF beautifully wrought gold. The
brooches are made in twelve designs,
introducing the signs of the zodiac,
hieroglyphs and flowers allotted to
each month, so that each tells the
story of the birth month.
January is represented by Aquarius,
the Waterman, sprinkling with his urn
wreath of snowdrops, the symbol Of
purity. February's wreath Of prim-
roses surrounds the fishes. The head
of Arias the Ram is framed by circle
OF March violets, denoting love. April
Is announced by Taurus, the Bull,
looking out from a wreath of daisies.

hawthorn arches above Mays twins,

Cancer the Crab. Leo, the rampant
Lion of July, is wrought upon a shield
bordered with water lilies. August is
represented by a shell clasped in pop
pies upon which reposes Virgo,
the Virgin. September's balance of
justice, Libra, is crowned with morn
ing glories. October hops surround
Scorpio the Scorpion.
The archer Sagittarius bands his bow
in bed of November chrysanthemums
Capricornus the Goat, signifying truth,
vainly tries to reach his December
wreath of holly.
The colors of the flowers introduced
