Medicine is very necessary at times.
but in OVERRIDING a remedy IL II only

complexion.
Cosmetics. emoIlients. lotions. etc. are
all very good and useful In their way n

on this side of the water is not so much
a question Of propriety as one of con-
venience; for even those restaurants
which are nearly altogether dependent
on the patronage of women make few
concessions to their preferences.
The restaurant question is not one
which interests alone the business or
professional women forced to live in a
boarding house, but the woman Of lei
sure who goes shopping or who is some
times compelled to spend a few days in
a strange city unattended and unchap-
eroned, is also deeply concerned.
What women like in a restaurant are
clean and quiet surroundings; no fussy
mattresses or naughty, shrill voiced
Jeans and Pierres insolently demanding
a fee. The restaurant of the future.
which will be popular with women, will
pay the walters an adequate salary and
make 1t a rule of the establishment that
no fees shall be accepted. A card stat
ing this rule can be placed on the print
ed menu TO notify guests OF the fact.
The walters. whether men or women,
will be respectful and attentive; the
only reason why women prefer male to
female Mattresses is the fact that, when
a woman is inclined to be insolent to a
woman, she has a thousand and one
ways of making herself disagreeable
that would never occur to the mascl-
line mind. The restaurant where the
Mattresses wear neat white caps and
pretty white aprons is admired and
patroniZed by women because its watt
resses are. as a rule, sensible women
who attend to business: the naughty or
the fllghty waitress is too elegant to
work in a shop that requires them to
wear a uniform. Besides, the neat and
natty appearance OF the attendants
adds to the picture.
Women never like the restaurant that
dispenses with the tablecloth; 1t may
be an economy in laundry bills for the
proprietor but, in the long run il will
be found not to pay. Every woman
who sits down to the shining. uncovered
board feels like taking a napkin and
wiping 1T on: il may be perfectly clean.
but she never feels sure.
Elaborate menus may be attractive.
but when the same women patronize
the same restaurant day after day. they
like change in the bill of fare. Most
restaurants are content with the same
bill of fare week after week.
AS women understand the culinary
art better than men, IL is a wonder that
more women do not go into the restau-
rant business.

There are preparations for keeping
the cuticle in good condition and the
nail q bright pink. For cleaning the
nails or pressing back the cuticle
about them, never use q blunt metal
instrument; an orange wood stick.
blunt at one end and pointed at the
other, is far better. In treating the
cuticle, a good cream and a good cuti-
Gle softener will be found very use
full. When the nails are discolored.
a nail bleach may be used. A piece of
pumice stone will be found useful in
removing stains from the fingers.
II. through an accident, you are
about to loose a nail. do not try to
hurry its removal; II is always better
at such times to consult a physician.
The cuticle should not under any
circumstances be cut away with a
knife or the scissors. and ladies who
are in the habit of having their hands
cared for by a professional mani
curist should bear this in mind If they
wish to avert painful consequences.
Always insist that the orange mani
cure stick be used.

wOMAN'S HAIR.
New York

Luxuriant hair Is to some extent an
inherited quality, and to a considerable
extent it belongs to healthy constitu-
ton. But the hair can be cultivated; it
can be made healthy and preserved in
its natural color until so with proper
care and attention. The first point is
clean scalp: the second entire free
dom-not pin, or comb, or a twist,
or braid about it, simply combed
back from the forehead and hanging
down behind, a ribbon combining it be-
hind and under the ears so as to prevent
it from coming forward over the cheeks.
The third point is to have it as freely
exposed to the air day and night as
possible, because the perspiration es-
capes in the form of steam and carries
away the extra heat and thus keeps the
scalp healthy and cool and more clean
than If confined with kerchief.

OF bodices I might write indefinitely
without giving you many novel ideas.
Individual taste is always cast for this
important role. In general, sleeves are
tight, collars high and bodices are to be

much in evidence as ever. An all over
tucked silk shirt waist, with sleeves
matching, is considered the very best
fall model. This is to be a season of
buttons and braid. Remembering these
two things and that one Russian blouse

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THE NAILS.

THE care Of the nails is a very i'm
portant matter to all persons of
good breeding. A nail which is
indifferently groomed is an abomina-
ton in refined society. Even in the
humber walks Of life there Is no ex-
cuse for rough, harsh looking nails.
for 1t is comparatively easy and in
expensive to keep them in perfect
condition. 1t is especially unpardon-
able for a woman TO neglect the care
OF the nails. for women are looked up
TO as models of refinement and good
taste. To a large extent the care
which woman bestows upon her
finger nails indicates her character.
Many men and women who are 9TH
erwise very fastidious in regard to
their appearance are totally unmind-
full Of their hands, contenting them
selves with detailed attention to mat
tiers OF far less consequence.
One would suppose that the busy
nail that performs so many useful
offices would receive the care to which
1t is entitled for the reasons before
stated.
