A FAIRY DRAUGHTsMAN.

Jack Frost has wings of rainbow
And of skates a dainty pair;
He skins on the ice bound waters,
He speeds through the frosty arr
He carries a magic pencil.
And he sketches. every night,
Millions and millions Of pictures
Before the morning light
He draws for us the vision
OF his home at the Northern Pole,
The crystal sweep of the ice fields,
The frozen waves that roll
In hummock. and berg. and snowdritt
Across the Arctic sea.
And he smiles TO think that no other
Can draw IL as well as he.

PonltIcen for Heauty.a Face.

All women cannot go to Paris to
consult a celebrity who has just come
to the fore with a plan to benefit COM
p~lexion. 1t consists OF making poult-
ices of the interior of fruit, and wear
ing these over the face at night, says
the Philadelphia Inquirer. All fruit IL
good, but the best of all Is the straw
berry. You need not use pounds Of
fruit, like Nine. Tallien-a very little
will suffice. You spread the fruit on
a band Of linen, and tie this over the
wrinkled part of the face. Even one
trial will astonish you; but II you IN
tinue the result will exceed your Wild
est expectations. Women who follow
this treatment never wash the face in
quite plain water. nor In cold water.
nor with soap. Never, either, use
glycerine or any fatty substance On
the face. A little powder may COM
plete the perfect drying OF the face.
but 1t must be Of the very best quail
ity. Plain orris root is the best OF
! all. However, by continually using
fruit plasters or bandages nothing else
will be required to maintain the COM
