The emphatic type OF noses denotes
strong character, and those whom ProVi-
denee has given such a nose may rest
happy. But if your nose is red, look to
your digestion or the tightness of your
stays. If it shows blackheads. improve
your methods of bathing. If it freckles
easily, apply a freckle lotion. For with
the shape of the nose you may not tamper
with impunity but its complexion may be
improved.
If the nose is chronically red either the
digestion is impaired or tight lacing is re-
sponsible. Diet and exercise will cure the
one and common sense the other. When
black-heads appear. and they never will

face steaming and the use of good cream
will cure them. An excellent ointment is
made of flowers of sulphur one teaspoon
full; rose-Water, one pint; glycerin. one tea
spoonful. If the specks are very obstinate
and hard TO remove, this preparation
should be used: Liquid ammonia, twenty
drops; ether, one drachm; soft soap, one
ounce Battle the place affected with hot
water. and then rub in . little of this mix
ture with the ball of the thumb, Then
wash off with hot water. DO this till the
skin is clear again. In your washing wa
ter use now and then a few drops of tinct-
ure OF benzoin This will keep the skin
free from grease and dust.
The nose is very apt to freckle, even
when no other part of the face is affected
in the same way. These little brown spots
can be removed by putting on the nose
this lotion: Lemon juice three ounces;
vinegar, one ounce; rosewater, one ounce;
Jamaica rum, one ounce. Apply this with
a sponge several times a day, When the
face is washed care must be taken to dry
the nose downward, not upward, and
whenever the nose is touched with the
hand or a handkerchief this same advice
must be borne in mind or very ugly re-
suits will follow.
The ideal eyebrow is one that is slightly
arched, and the hair of which is smooth
and silky. Rather thick eyebrows are be-
coming to the eyes, but bushy eyebrows
give fierce expression to a face, whether
of man or woman. Scanty or Uniformed
eyebrows, which leave a red line visible
over the eye. are a very great defect to
the face. and care should be taken to
remedy the condition. Pure grease applied
AT night will help them to grow The
eyebrows should not he rubbed or brushed
the wrong way. Rubbing the brows at
all is very bad habit. and fatal to their
beauty. Stroking the eyelashes in an up
ward direction is said to give them ten
dency TO curl up. Children's eyelashes
may be very slightly clipped at the ends
occasionally, and will grow longer and
better in consequence; but grown-up per-
son should on no account tamper in this
way with the lashes, as IL only makes
them grow coarse and stubby. Even when
cutting children's eyelashes the very
greatest care should be exercised, and only
the very tips should be clipped
lnfamed eyelids may be washed in rose
water. When the eyes feel irritable. or
there is a prickly sensation, they may be
bathed in elder flower water. The fol-
lowing recipe makes a soothing and re-
freshing wash for tired eyes: Take a
quart of soft water, a pinch of coarse salt
and a teaspoonful of brandy. Mix all
well together and shake the bottle before
using the mixture. The best time for
bathing the eyes is in the evening.
