A GOOD COMPLEXION.
How Almost Every Woman Can Have
n CIear Skin.

tItuF Skius
There is no beauty more necessary to
make a woman attractive than clear
skin, and this with very little trouble
almost all of us can attain.
The first thing necessary for good
complexion is a good digestion; indeed,
there are few human ills that cannot be
laid at the door Of badly-working
liver. To remedy this one must of
course apply to ones doctor. Next to
this comes cleanliness. Everyone
should take warm bath once a day.
Not jump in the tub and then out again,
but take a scrubbing with first quality
of soap. Afterward one should sponge
off with cold water; but there is no dam
ger anyway of catching cold, If one does
not go out for an hour. This rubbing
opens the pores and let's out all over the
body many impurities which otherwise
would find vent through the face.
The face itself should be washed night
and morning, good soap, and oat or
corn meal. After this rub gently but
liTHlly lHtO lllc Shll lUI ubout llNc iiili-
utes little cold cream, and the soften
Ing effect of this treatment is almost
amazing. If one could wear flannel
mask for an hour or two during the
"a, so the skin would become very warm,
It would be Of great benefit, Last but
by no means least, avoid carefully
catching cold or sitting in damp shoes
clothes or draughts.
Strange as II may seem to the cas-
ual observer, one of the greatest skin
beautifiers is an equal temper and q
regular life. l have seldom seen a
Quaker or woman belonging to re
ligious order without good skin
often to the age of so; and / am firm
ly convinced that 1t is entirely due to
the equable, passive lives they lead.
We can't all be Quakers or Sisters O
Mercy, but we can get up, walk, take
our baths and eat our meals at regular
times, and this rule, II followed will
the other suggestions l have made
is bound to have most beautfyinl
effect on the skin.-Amy E. Hull, IL

THE FARMERS HOME.
Its Various Needs and Maintenance Con.
sldered.

The final object OF II farmers labors
is to maintain his home and support
his family. But maintain" and sup
port in this connection, are very large
and comprehensive terms. A home
should not mean simple shelter from
rain and sun, nor necessarily palace.
1t may be humble or palatial, accord.
ing TO means OF owner, but it should
be warm and comfortable in winter,
with sashes and blinds, sufficient CHM
neys, with abundant supplies of prop

summer, with verandas or vine-trellises
and shade trees. 1t should have all
practicable appliances for rendering

never pollute the well water. SAM
tary arrangements are too much neg
lected on our farms. So much for the
bodily wants of the household. But
this is not or should not be all. The
mind and soul hunger us well as the
body; they demand things to interest
and please, and the removal of things
which offend and disgust. Beauty
as well rs utility is included in true
home. A neatly-inclosed 1ower-gar-
den should adorn the front of the house,
and under the shade-trees around and
beyond, which should always be pres
ent to temper the heat of the summer
sun. perennial grasses should carpet
the lawn. The unseemly worn fence
| should disappear, also stables, barns,
and other out-buildings remanded to
some less conspicuous place than the
front of the dwelling. 1t is remarkable
how often these buildings are located
right in front of dwellings on our
farms. Stock of all kinds should be
