Lemon Juice.

Lemons taken externally, or rather used,
will aid in identifying any one. There is
nothing more valuable for the toilet table
than a solution of lemon juice. A little
rubbed on the hands. face and neck at
night will not only whiten, but soften the
skin. A paste made Of magnesia and
lemon juice applied to the face and hands
upon lying down for Is minutes rest
will bleach the skin beautifully.
For discolored or stained finger nails
teaspoonful Of lemon juice In cup OF
warm soft water is invaluable. This is
one of the very best manicure acids. 1t
will loosen the cuticle from the finger
nails as we'll as remove discolorations.
Lemon juice in water is an excellent
tooth wash. This is about the only thing
that will remove tartar. 1t Will also
sweeteD the breath.
