HOUSE VEItMIN.

TO the househeeper, whose daily life
is a '.conflict with Satan and sin, rs
embodied in the encroachment of va
rious species of vermin in the kitclr-
en- and servants room. this warning Of
practical architect to women antic
pating building will be both timely and
helpful. s.Thc woodwork" he says,
"in kitchens, bath rooms and servants
quarters should be reduced to mini
num-" 1t is rank heresy using wains-
coting in the kitchen. Tiled walls and
floors are most beautiful and appropr
ate, but, if too expensive, use hard plas-
ter and paint. Even wash boards,
with careless servants proclivities,
become the hiding and breeding places
of vermin. Small holdings also arc
Objectionable, and all woodwork should
be reduced to the simplest forms. In
the hospitals of to-day there is no ques-
ton as to doing away with every pos
sible lurking place for infectious germs,
but no one thinks of the kitchen, which
we have ever with us.

WOMAN'S COMPILATION.

At this season women pay a great
deal ofattcntion to their complexions, as
well rs at every other. The skin needs
greater care when cold weather sets in
than at any other time, however, for it
is likely to crack, or chap, or get too
dry, when is bound to give a woman

dclicacy of her skin had this to say
about its preservation when question:

Every woman should pet her COM
plcNion in November more than in any
other month ef the year, for it is abso-
lutely necessary to get it in condition,
as athletes say, for the winter, to get
it in shape to struggle against extreme
cold. sudden changes, and wrinkle
bearing winds. use only three
things on my compleNion-soap. water
and pure white vasclinc. Half the
women in the world have had bad
compilations because they are afraid of
soap and water. They actually be-
lievc that beauty is only skin deep,
and they are afraid to scrub their faces
least they strike the bottom. The face
should be washed every night before
going to bed in tepid water and with
plenty of pure olive oil or white cas-
tile soap. 1t should then be rinsed
with clear tepid water, dried tenderly
and thoroughly, and little white vas
cline gently rubbed in. 1t is Il great
mistake to use either cold or hot water
on the face, for both shock the skin
and cause it to draw up, giving an
aged appearance. Let any any VIC

pie treatment try it for month and if

and women alike ride mules, the
wealthier females using the English
side saddle, though some prefer the
safer, though clumsy, Spanish saddle.
Poorer women ride aStridc without OK
citing any comment among the natives.
the correspondent continues:
Il noticed one rider near Juana
who took my mind back to The old
days of chivary. She was 4 lovely
girl Of about - or lG, with a face like
madona and figure like an artist 5
model. One little foot crcpt out be-
meath her silk riding skirt, and to my
surprise it was devoid of hosiery. The
skin was like polished velvet and was
of pinkish gold of an exquisite tint.
1t was shod with a slipper of satin or
silk. embroidered in color, and had an
arched instep which made the foot all
the more charming by its setting.
The time to see the women at their
best Is on Sunday morning, when they
ride from their homes to mass in the
nearest church or cathedral. On Sun
day morning, while riding leisurely
into small village on my way to this
town, | met Il crowd OF worshipers
on their way to mass. Nearly all the
women were on mulcback and sat and
lolled as if they were in an easy chair
in their own homes. \ few, probably
wcalthier than the others or delicate in
heath, were accompanied hy little
darky boys, who held over them par
asol or an umbrella.
"On Sunday each woman wears
huge rosary, sometimes SO large as to
be uncomfortable. | saw several that
were so unwicldy that they went over
the shoulders and formed a huge line,
larger, indeed, than 4 string of sleigh
bells. These are ornamental rosarics
and are not used for prayer. The
PRAYING rosary is rs small and dainty
as those used 10y fashionable women in
our own Roman Catholic churches.
Besides the fan and the rosary every
woman was provided with neat and
often handsomely bound prayer book
and huge lighted cigar or cigarette.

mass is over and they cmeIgc into the

SCPEItFLUOCS HAIR.
