with perfect harmony and the best
of feeling until the subject of a
Teachers Normal was suggested
by Johnnie Brumager, and stirring
speeches were made by ID. q. Hud-

confusion was a place TO hold the

decided, every teacher in Benton
County is expected to be present

ton and ready TO cast a vote for "A

D0CT0RlNG THE HAND
Different Types Require llaDy Kinds
Of Treatment
NALI ABLE
SOME
RECIPES.
sEnny Women Fail in Their Efforts
To Secure II beautiful Hand by
Applying the Wrong LOtiOn-SIccp-
fng Gloves should lie Worn.


One great secret OF having a soft, kiss
able hand is TO find out what kind Of
pomade or cream is suitable to It, and 20
make a point Of using that and that
only for the future. 1t may take a
weary experimentalizing to find out what
IS just suitable. but l assure you time
and thought are very well spent on H.
Some women are entirely too apt to try
a thing just because their dearest friend
advises 1t, or because they hear that a
woman they cordially dislike but secretly
envy, uses It in the mysteries Of her
toilet Now, this is just about as foolish
thing as they can do. and often an
otherwise passable hand IS ruined by the
nl-advised use Of the worst possible
pomade for that particular kind Of skin.
No two skins are just alike. One IS
fine; the other is coarse; while third is
notified and quaint looking. And every
kind OF skin. be It commonplace or rather
eccentric, requires different treatment.
Would that people would awaken 10 this
fact and not ruin an otherwise pleasant
looking skin by the variety OF harmful
things they see fit to rub upon IL
hand Is not Ike kitchen cooking
range, that becomes more lovely 10 behold
the more It Is polished, but requires as
delicate handling as a priceless china cup,
and should have quite as nuch care be-
slowed upon It.
The chief thing TO strive after when
you want soft, white hands is that you
should eat plenty OF nourishing food and
drink plenty OF liquid, only not with
your meals, but between them. Lack OF
nourishment produces that nabby wrin-
killed. kind Of hand which you have often
10 so reluctantly shake. Now, few
words as 70 the kind OF ointments to
use. For smooth, close-srained skin,
that looks much the same In summer
heats or winter SHOWS, a charming
pomade may be made as follows Bitter
almond, four ounces; honey and Glycerine,
four teaspoonfuls; yolks Of four eggs;
almond oil, one-half pint; eau de cologne
md lemon Juice. two ounces.
An easier pomade. and obtainaoie any

rew MIX. and four teaspoonfuls Of white
honey. Let this gently simmer over a
slow fire for twelve hours then squeeze
through a muslin bag or fine sieve; then
mix well together, and press into a pot.
Another very successful pomade IS made
Of lanollnc. one ounce; essence OF bitter
almonds, fifteen minims: dry chloride or
lime, one half ounce; rectified spirit, one
ounce; and a ltle honey and lemon
juice.
Lemon-juics honey, and eau dc cologne
ia equal parts. and the yolk OF one egg.
beaten together make capital toilct-aid,
and should be rubbed on several times a
day, when the hands are sull damp from
washing. Plain slices Of lemon rubbed on
the hands under the same circumstances
help TO whiten and soften the skin in a
delightful manner. Oatmeal made into a
paste, with almond-oil, oil of bergamot,
and honey is also very good for the hands.
White Of egg and alum, beaten 20 a thin
paste, is also good IN some cases.
When me pomade is applied, care
should be taken TO see that the hands are
perfectly clean, or the application Will
not be Of very much use. and / must
insist again on a point upon which too
much stress cannot be lald-yiz. that the
hands must be thoroughly dried after
they are washed.
Cacao butter is also a very good founia-
ton 10 use for one OF these pomades.
Take equal parts Of this with almond-ol.
deer suet, and eau de cologne, and mix
well. All these pomades require well
beating together till they are smooth ana
overlooking.
Sleeping gloves must be worn at night
If there is any redness or roughness seen.
as prevention Is always much more sat
isfactory than cure IN these cases.
These sleeping gloves can be bought at
a very tr.fing outlay. and should not only
be well ventilated, but should be several
times too large, so that there Is no pres
sure. The pomade should be well rubbed
into the hands before the gloves are put
on.
A better plan, however. and one adopt
cd by many fashionable women, is 70
turn the gloves inside out and well rub
them with the cold cream or nomade. and
the put the hands into the coverings
thus prepared for them.
\ hand soft and white is what every
one, especially the members OF the softer
sex, desires TO possess; but II is frequent
~, owing perhaps TO constitutional defect
or unavoidable use, q difficult matter 20
obtain In the winter months too, ones
hands. despite every care, are apt 70
become red and unsightly looking The
ladies' Of anclen. days kept their skin
dazzling fair by constant applications OF
milk washes and wonderful cosmetics. In
which many curious items were blended,
one Of the most valuable being almond
paste a marvellous specific for whitening
the skin.
