HOW TO "MAKE UP"

Suggestions as to the Best Way to
Apply Cosmetics. e.
Although nothing Is more to be deplored
than any attempt at makeup" for ordinary
social functions. II Is sometimes necessary
to resort to artificial devices for fancy dress
parties, or amateur theatricals. For these
rare occasions 1t may BIO done In such a
way as to be entirely harmless, and indeed
the process must always be performed with
the greatest delicacy and Elaboration in
order to have the results satisfactory. It
goes without saying that only the very best
materials should be used. \.
After washing the face, neck and arms In.
very hot water, sponge them lightly with
eau-de-cologne and water, or toilet vinegar
and water. and when quite dry rub the
entire surface with some good cream, which
is neither sticky nor greasy. Then powder
the neck and arms very thickly with some
good powder. Now, with d hare's foot, ap-
ply a very little Of the best rouge to the
cheeks, shading it of naturally at the edges,
and powder the face we'll over. Take a large
piece Of fine. clean wash leather, and rub
the powder in we'll on face, neck and arms.
1t Is this polishing process that gives the
soft, natural appearance to the complexion.
The carmine for the lips must be applied
with great care. following accurately the
natural outline. smears at the corners have
an abominable appearance.
For darkening the eyelashes and brows,
the following homemade preparation is the
best: Burn a champagne cork until It will
crumble easily to powder. Put 1t in q
saucer, and when you have rubbed 1t quite
smooth. drop pure glycerine on 1t. and stir
until It becomes liquehed, about the con-

A TRUCE TO GIVING.
The Significance of ChristmRs 10 Los

The Significance of ChristmRs 10 Lost
in Crucial Tax Of Social Giving.
There Is no sentiment, no propriety, no
dignity, in such a scramble Of giving and
receiving as Christmas now witnesses, says
a writer in the Woman's Home Companion.
Gift within late years has become
q burden we'll nigh intolerable, not only be-
cause of the expense, but because OF the act
uar physical and mental wear and tear in
volved. In the matter Of gifts it ought not
to be hard to draw the line. There Is a
propriety both OF sentiment and tradition in
the exchange Of family gifts. certain near
friends there are whom We should remem-
Der in our Christmas plans; and surely every
one able to give at all should remember in
some way the unfortunate. But there Is no
excuse in making these gifts an unwarrant-
able burden-neither in the sense Of time,
expense nor effort, save only where the ele-
ment of self-sacrifce Is a Joy to the giver,
and never a source Of secret repining. The
mother who saves up to make her little ones
happy has a return within herself beyond
gross price. But even she should remember
that a child will enjoy a single gift, II it is
something that has been much desired, as
much as a large number Of gifts. We can
have no real pleasure in the years greatest
festival II we go beyond either our means
or strength in It's celebration. Whatever the
size Of our incomes, II we have any at all,
we can have our Christmas tree, our gift
making and our feast; the only point being
to gauge the character Of these several fes-
tival features exactly to the length Of our
purse, with no loophole for after worry or
uneasy conscience.

Mrs. Sarah Josepha Hale, a Boston

her suggestion in 1864. when there was
