The scrubbing-brush treatment is q
cure for those blackheads which are
the bane of a woman's life. Be sure you
get a good face brush. Purchase a
cake of pure hygienic soap. The brush
should be used at night before going
to bed Immerse the brush in hot wa
ter. Rub the soap over it until a good
lather is obtained. Scrub the face
carefully-not violently, but thor
oughly. One minute should suffice for
the scrubbing process. Rinse with
warm water and again with cooler wa
ter. Dry with a soft towel. If the skin
is irritated by the unusual friction try
4 good cream or other emollient. The
greasy look viii disappear under the
face-scrubbing brush also.-Chicago

When it is necessary to keep a meal
hot for a belated conner do not set the
plate holding the food in a hot oven,
thus discoloring the china as well as
drying the food; instead place the plate
upon the fire over a pan of boiling wa
ter, covering the plate with a pan that
will just fit over the edge of the plate.
The food will keep hot and there will
be enough steam from the boiling wa
ter in the lower pan to keep the plate
moist and prevent its contents becom-
