WASHING THE FACE.
Nothing Else Is Quite ms Helpful for
Clearing the Skin from All
Impurities.

The story is told of young wom-
an who was afflicted with blackheads
visiting a physician in search of
remedy for the Disagreement, and
being politely and candidly told to
wash her face thoroughly in plenty of
hot water and soap and keep it clean.
Not every physician is frank enough
to tell his patient the true cause of
"blackheads" or the failure of the fine
sebaceous glands of the face to do
their work and cast out impurities
from the skin. When for any reason
whatsoever these oil glands are
clogged, what is popularity known as
''blackheads" appear. This is simply
a collection of impurities in the
mouth of the gland, which it has not
force enough to throw off. These
"blackheads" appear often on the nose
and in the space between the eyes
because the sebaceous glands are
very abundant in these places. The
only remedy for "blackheads" is to
stimulate the glands to do their work
by washing the face with plenty of
hot water, using just as hot water
as one can bear. Use pure white
CASTLE soap to assist in the slim
ulating and cleansing process. Large
"blackheads" must often be pressed
out, and if there is any irritation a
little cold cream should be used. This
cold cream is made of almond oil, and
not lard or mutton tallow, as most
of the cold cream of commerce are
made. Coarse animal fats, like lard
or mutton tallow, clog up the glands
themselves and produce 'blacl-
heads" Steaming the face by laying
cloths wrung out in water as hot as
you can bear it helps to clear the
skin from impurities.
A person afflicted with 'blackheads"
and pimples, which are the legitimate
result of "blackheads," has scientifi-
cally "dirty face" no matter how
many times it has been washed in
conventional manner. Sponges and
all wash cloths should be scalded fire.

become thoroughly dried after being

BUYING TABLE LINEN.
1t Is More Economical to Select "a Few
Good Pieces Than to Get "a Lot
of Cheap Stuff.

Table linen is an index of the taste
and neatness of the housekeeper. 1t
is economy to purchase only a fine
quality and to change often, in order
to prevent the wearing out by hard
rubbing in the laundry.
For everyday use that sold by the
yard will suffice. 1t is much cheaper,
though it lacks the elegance of bor-
dered cloth. A small patterned linen,
showing the familiar snowdrop, ivy
and clover, wears better than that
having larger designs. For a small
family four cloths for daily use, with
as many of a better quality, are
enough. Napkins usually match. Din
ner napkins are three-quarters of
yard square, and a dozen go with each
cloth. Both the tablecloths and nap
kins should be cut by drawn thread
and narrow hand hem finished with
the utmost neatness. Four dozen nap
kins, for a small family, helped out
by small tea napkins ought to suffice.
If linen of every kind is washed be-
fore cutting and hemming, taking out
the starch will greatly facilitate the
work 1t is to be remembered that
linen not bleached to snowy white
ness will last much longer than the
other.
Some housekeepers fancy, for
change, either the plain or the twilled
linen cloths. These are finished on
each of the four edges with wide hens
and hemstitching above, and are made
to fit the dimensions of the table
Handsome they truly are. But, as
figured linens do not, they show every
stain and muss. They are usually fin
ished with monogram from six to
nine inches high, wrought diagonally
across one corner in such manner as
to show on the table top. The hens
are from two to four inches in depth,
and are sometimes finished with
fall of renaissance lace, the depth of
which depends upon the housekeep-
er's purse. However the cloth is fin
ished, the napkins should correspond.
Table cloths of all kinds are procura-
BILE of any length, even up to five
yards.-Good Housekeeping.

SHIRT WAIST HANGER.
Clever Device of n Bright Girl Who
Had More Summer Clothes Than
Closet Room.

The summer girl, with her large as
sortment of gowns and shirt waists,
finds it quite a problem to dispose of
the latter where they will be kept free
from crease or rumple. AS freshness
constitutes the chief charm of the shirt
waist, it must be preserved at all haz-
ard. A clever art student who had but
one closet at her disposal, and that one
filleu to overlooking with all sorts of
odds and ends, from gowns to art mate
rails and sketches, set her wits to work
to solve the problem. The only unoccu-
pied space was the ceiling; she must
utilize that or her beloved waists would
suffer. The accompanying diagram of
her scheme will show the manner of
her triumph. A piece of curtain pole,

Growing Crops in Orchards.

The disadvantage of having grass or
growing crops in an orchard is not en-
tirely due to the chance of the crops
robbing the soil of fertility needed by
the trees. If it was it would be easily
remedied by the manure applied to the
hoed crops, of which the trees would
get their share, or by turning sheep
into the orchard to eat the grass and
the fallen wormy fruit, who would en-
rich the soil by their droppings. But
the greater trouble comes from the
summer and fall droughts when the
trees need all the moisture to perfect
their fruit. If the grass or other sur
face crop takes it there will be large
amount of fruit fall which might have
been saved if there had been moisture
enough to carry it through to matur-
fly. Where water can be supplied by
irrigation this difficulty is not as great,

Supreme Court Sustains the Foot-Easc
Trade-Mark

Justice Laughlin, in Supreme Court, Buff
taio, has ordered a permanent injunction,
with costs, and full accounting of sales, to
issue against Paul B. Hudson, the manufac-
turer of the foot powder called Or. Clark's
Foot Powder" and also against retail deal
er of Brooklyn, restraining them from max
ing or selling the Dr. Clark's Foot Powder,
which is declared, in the decision of the
Court, an imitation and infringement of

shoes for tired, aching feet, now so largely
advertised and sold all over the country
Allen S. Olmsted, of LIE Roy, n Y, is the
owner of the trademark Foot Ease" and
he is the first individual who ever advertised
foot powder extensively over the coun-
try. He will send a sample Free to anyone
who writes him for it. The decision in this
case uphods his trademark and renders
all parties liable who fraudulently attempt
to profit by the extensive "Foot-Ease" ad-
vertising, in placing upon the market a spu-
rious and similar appearing preparation, la
bled and put up in envelopes and boxes like

against others who are now infringing on

Of course there are objections to this
arrangement; dust and flies, and the
marring of the general appearance of
the room. But where a corner of a room
is curtained off for a closet it would
be an easy matter to carry the curtains
up to the ceiling. Summer hotels and
boarding house keepers would make
themselves very popular with the sum-
mer girl by carrying out this idea in
the curtained recesses that answer for

How to Clean Fine Lace.

Occasionally a piece of fancy work
on the lace order does not show soil

work is laid away for week in heavy

LITTLE, BUT Oh, MYl
How n LOw-Sized Lawyer Impressed
n Timid Servant with HIS
Importance.

The following story is attributed to SEN
ator Vest, says the Chicago Tribune:
Before the war there was a lawyer in
independence, Mo-, who was the counterpart
in appearance of the pictures of Pickwick.
He was as fussy in his manner as hen with
brood of ducks. One day he nearly broke
in the door of a residence by his vigorous
use of the knocker. The disturbance was
answered by darby, who was frightened
out of his boots as he opened the door.
Where's your master?' thundered the law
yer, and before the darby could answer the
lawyer repeated his question. Then the
darby replied that he was not in.
II suppose not thundered the lawyer
again. We'll, mind you, now, mind you,
when he comes you tell him / want to see
hlm-want to see him at once. Understand?
Tell him j. Brown Hovey, attorney at law,
wants to see him at once, at once
With that Mr.. Hovey turned and disap-
'peared in flutter. When the master came
he asked his servant if anyone had called.
The darby was still in his fright, and with
his teeth chattering he replied:
Yes, sab, dar was leetle, funny-look-
ing name come, an he said dat was to tell
you dat Brown j. Hovey, de eternal Lord,
want ter see you right away"
