With its drawings by such artists as
Howard Pyle, Frank Du Mond, a, G.
x Lnson and its reproductions of
some of these in color, and its beautiful
seasonable special cover. McClure's
Magazine for December is a notable
artistic achievement. But it is no
less notable from the strictly literary
standpoint In the Introduction and
prologue OF DR.. John Watson's (Ian

is a more than satisfactory opening OF
what promises to ne unique and val.
liable feature throughout the year.
There are two Christmas stories-one
of the South and tramp life; one OF the
West and railroad life-both original in
incidents and genial in spirit and out

Beautiful Hands.

Beautiful. well kept hands denote re-
finement. therefore great care should be
taken to keep the hands and finger nails
in perfect condition. The hand should
be white, just family tinged with pink,
but the true value of hands does not lie
in their wilderness. but in their shape and
in their subtle suggestion of power.
Lemon juice we'll rubbed into the hands
will help to whiten them. Another very
good preparation is horse radish soaked
in hot milk. Scrape horse radish very
finely and allow it to soak in hot milk
for a couple of hours. Rub this well
into the hands and allow it to dry. then
wash well in soft water. Hard water
has tendency to make the hands rough
and coarse. Oatmeal or bran will soften

Kiss Cutler does no manual labor. but
spends all her energies in directing. She
hires experienced, high priced help. AS
to the routine work, she says: 81 think
that it takes the wisdom of Solomon to
get along some days when everything
hurries." When the hotbeds are filled

then comes four or five acres of nursery
stock to be disposed of in six weeks at
the most. The planting of different veg
etables is progressing all the time. and
the marketing is going on.
All kinds of vegetables are produced
early. so that they may reach the mar
kets before prices strike their lowest
point. Miss Cutler sends her carnations
to New York and her vegetables to
Worcester. She thinks that many people
make the mistake of not remembering
that there are hungry people in other
places besides Boston and that it isn't
wise to rush everything into Boston mar
kets, where there is sometimes even Q
glut of gilt edge products. Boston Globe.

An English Mother and Daughter.

One of the anomalous contrasts that are
often seen nowadays, especially in Eng
fish society, is the up to date sporting
mamma and the dignifed, quiet and OBJ
viously disappearing daughter.
ooh, Maud and l are not at all con-
genial" exclaimed Mrs. Dashaway. I'VE
have positively nothing at all in common.
We are good friends, Of course. but our
pursuits are entirely different. To tell
the truth, am rather afraid of her and
her companions; they are so awfuily tip
top, don't you know, and proper. l al
ways feel as if they were criticising me
and my friends, and finding US below
par! AS for poor me, really admire and
appreciate Maud's many excellent quail
ties, but l am bound to admit, neverthe-
less, that she is decidedly dull"
ooh, dear, no! l do not at all belong
to mammals set" remarks Miss Maud in
her turn. Il am much too old for their
juvenility. cannot play practical jokes
or smoke cigarettes or dance skirt dances,
or do anything that would recommend me
to their intimacy. How do you suppose
my mother and some of her intimates
amused themselves the other afternoon?
| They had a mock funeral in our garden,
and buried a rag baby. 1t seems that
Mrs. Freak made rag doll, and dressed
it like real baby. and sent it anonymous
~ to Jack Sport. who appeared with it
in his arms that evening at Lady Smart's
dance, where they all went off in shrieks
of laughter, and Count de r., who was to
lead the cotillon, borrowed it for fig
ure.
cit was an immense success. One man
got the woman and the other man got the
baby and had to dance with it. Every
one was vastly amused. But this was
not all. When the crowd had departed
and Lady Smart. my respected mamma
and some other young things, with their
attendant cavaliers, went down for q
coZy little supper. some one proposed to
christen the baby. This created greAt
enthusiasm. Lady Di Highfier and the
Hon. Anastasia Hunton were the god
mothers and Captain links the godfa
Their, the fond parent of course being
Jack Sport. Well. they kept up thai
baby craze for a week. 1t went every
where. even on top of coach to Rich
mnnd and to water party ON thu
Thames. 1t amused the set longer thar
anything had done for years, but finally
1t palled. and as grand finale some on,
suggested that it should die and be bur
led. That was a great idea. Interes
revived at once, and as | told you, tn,
funeral took place yesterday in my moth
er's garden. You see, it takes so littl
to amuse mamma and her set!"-Ney

Attention For Lamps.

Unfortunately for the busy woman,
lamps need more attention than any 9TH
er means OF light, and many women
know but little of the best methods Of
treating them. If lamp chimneys are
cleaned with cloth dipped into alcohol
instead of soap and water. the result
is better, and if the wicks are soaked
In strong vinegar and thoroughly dried
before being used, there will be no
smoke The burners will become clog
ged in the course of time and ought to be
treated to ten minutes boiling in a
quart of water in which an ounce of
washing soda has been dissolved. Wipe
with cotton cloth, and they will be as
good as new. This really ought to be
done every month.
