4 Dry salt Bath.

y dry salt bath is said to tone up the
general system and renovate the COM
plexion as if by magic. Il never had
anything do me so much good, " says
woman who has tried it this spring.
"When my fancy began to turn serious
ly to that tired feeling with budding
trees and buZZing bees, which it does
every year as surely as the youths does
to love, my physician advised me to
give tOnics the go by and to try instead
dry salt baths. l nearly filled large
earthen jar with the coarsest salt I could
get and added enough water to this to
make sort Of thick salt paste, but not
enough to dissolve the mineral Every
morning when I get up take this up
III handfuls and rub it brislIly over my
body. Next | jump into tub of clear.
cold water AID take Il thorough dous-
ing, but III lreat hurry. This being
done, take Il brisk rub down with a
Turkish towel. The effect is delicious.
1t gives one a sense Of exhilaration. But
the best part Of the Cry salt bath is not
the feeling Of freshness and renewed
life that it irlrarts, but the soft, satiny
texture OF the SKIN. = Exchange.

go and get some Of the soup that was
being freely distributed.
Soup is it, your honor: Sure, it
