To massage correctly, steam the face
slightly by boiling water and holding
the face over the Vapor few minutes.
Then wash well with hot water, after
which a little good face cream can be
rubbed into the skin. Use very little
upon the cheeks, but be generous along
the line of wrinkles and around the
mouth.
Now comes the massage. With the
fingers slightly warmed, begin to pass
them along the lines, rubbing out the

gentle as possible, and do not irritate
the skin. Fifteen minutes is enough.
Now let the face rest, an hour is not
too long, over night is better. Next day
wash off the cream with hot water,
and, finally, before going out, dash the
cold. That is the best treatment know

brushed. Her hair is shining and free
from dust; her hands are neat and

It is embarrassing to talk too much
upon beauty, since it implies certain
degree of possession which no woman
wishes to claim, but there are certain
small and simple recipes for beauty,
hints they may be called, which are
such a direct aid to good looks that no
woman would hesitate to accept them,
nor need one feel hesitant about giving
theml
1t has been about exploded that wa
ter is bad for the skin. The day has
boasts that water has not touched her
face for years, except accidentally, and
that grease is her sole cleanser. That
to-day would be unspeakably unpleas-
ant!
Yet water, used in its hard harsh
state is bad! I should advise soft
warm water, especially for delicate
skins. The English woman, with face
hardened by the breezes of Brighton.
may be able to endure the cold dash,
and the Russian woman, used to the
biting air all the year around, may not
suffer from its i'll effects. But the
American woman with her soft deli
cate peach blow skin must pin her
faith to hot soft water. Hard water
may be sOftened by boiling and few
grains of borax will make it very pleas
ant.
A lemon is necessary to the toilet of
a lady, especially one who is accus-
toned to outdoor exercise. For sun
burn and freckles half a lemon may be
rubbed on the face and hands, and the
juice left on for an hour; then it can
be washed off with very hot water and
the hands dried before the fire. The
acid removes discolorations and is a
general beautifier.
Creams are all good; I should say
that a face cream would be very bad
indeed, if it injured the skin Every
thing in the nature of a grease feeds
the skin and makes it plump; and as
the skin grows plump the wrinkles dis
appear.
Massage is a good thing, properly
performed. But it can also destroy the
skin. Nothing would be calculated to
injure the complexion sooner than a

It seems a little odd to speak of one, 8
facial expression in a fashion article,
yet if you could stand, as your fashion
correspondent has done, for half an
hour upon the most frequented thor
Oughfare in New York for the purpose
of watching the faces of the passers-by,
you would not wonder at the para
graph. Faces that are adorned with
hats set we'll back, like the little toQucS
that have been mentioned, should wear
a cheerful expression. Only very young
faces can bear the strain if the face be
too serious. An elderly face, furroWed
and disconnected, is positively a garls,h
object under the brilliant autumn vel
vets. A smile must positively be IN the
recipe for good looks. ''Vivacity' IS the
word they call it in society; and IN
the South it comes under the head of

SMALL HATS WILL BE WORN.

New York, Oct. 6.-You are seeing
the most delightful headgear this fall,
of many a year. By this is meant the
soft, graceful lines and the flowing
feathers that mark the early autumn
display. After the stiff rigidity of the
summer sailor and its cousin, the rough
rider, this change to cloth and velvet is
very charming.
Passing the window of a Fifth Ave-
nue. milliner the other day, my atten-
ton was called to the six hats which
occupied places of prominence as sam
pies OF the wares inside. One and all
We're clOth-cOVered, and on not one was
there an inch of felt visible. They were
all made hats.
The tOque is coming in, to stay. The
toque as understood in Paris is small
hat, worn a little back, and made of
some cloth stuff, or of velvet or silk,
never straw or felt.
One of the prettiest of the toques was
made with a soft crown, stiffened in
side and laid in folds irregular and
graceful. This crown was of tan ladies
cloth. Around the crown was a very
full roll of emerald green velvet, as
large around, perhaps, as your arm.
The velvet was finished at one side
with a very large bunch of green leaves.
On the other side were green leaves
standing upright making a bush upon
which no flowers grew. The price Of
this was enormous, but it is not neces-
sary to name it because of the ease
with which such a hat might be manu-

those in the hat, and the couture and
toQue seem a part of each other so per-
fectly do they harmonize. That is one
reason why the toque IS not becoming
to more people; the hair is worn low
and unbecOmingly when it should sup
port the tOque and be specially oresseo
to meet 1t. Avoid the spreading pm IN
the couture which is supposed to hoid
the hat in place. This is useful only
with the hat that tips front; with the
little hat it is not becoming.
The tendency, while it is for smaller
hats, is also for higher hats. The vel
vet folds are built one on top of each
other; the feathers are maSsed ABOVE
the folds and over them all waves the
paradise plUmes, or floats the soft light
imitation paradise feathers.
We are not yet done talking Of the
wonderful rousseau of the Princess
Cantacuzene. One of her hats was per-
fectly round and made entirely of
shade known as japanese blue. The
crown was series of folds, stood up
right and twisted as though you
wrapped ribbon around your fingers.
The top of the crown was covered with
these silky folds. Around. the crown
the silk was twisted in a very large
roll and secured in place with garnet
headed pins. No less than twenty OF
these jewelled pins were visible, hold
ing the great roll of silk in place. When
completed the hat was perfectly round
without a particle of felt being visible.
At the front there were two broad
breasts of dark jay bird blue with
standing feathery plumeS OF white
There is this to be said in favor Of the
felt hat, that it is easily trimmed; and
in uncertain weather it is to be recon-
mended- Several simple styles of trim
ming the felt hat may be advised as
combining beauty and becomingness.
THE LANGTRY.
One of these is called the Langtry,
because it is so much worn by the Lily
this year, since she became Mrs. De
Battle. 1t can be initiated in either felt
or velvet.
The hat, which is preferably covered
with velvet, is a round one, with brim
fiat and crown not too high. At the
back there is placed a handsome buckle
of gold, set with mock gems, and
through the buckle is drawn a piece of
velvet made with pointed ends, not over
two inches long. The velvet is pulled
through the buckle, and the whole is
sewed fast to the hat right in the mid
die of the back, after which the ends
are pulled out smartly until they are
nearly the width of the hat brim
The front is trimmed with six ostrich
feathers, which are fastened under a
fancy ornament to match the buckle in
