The Filipinos love jewelry, and some
of the crude settings contain magnificent
pearls, found along the shores Of thu
island. The women, rs q class, are at
tractive-many are really pretty. While
eschewing shoes, gloves and hats, they
often wear dresses OF the finest texture
beautifully embroidered, and made with
q flowing train.
Both sexes love music, and the FIJI

ON A RUNAWAY iceBoAT

A writer Ia Frank Leslie's Popular
Monthly thus describes thrilling hair
breadth escape 10 an ice-boat runaway :
Some years ago there was runaway
down at Shelter Island, 10 which young
girl Was left In the boat with gale
blowing. She had tried TO throw the
sheet loose, but 1t was frozen and her dn-
gers were too cold, added to which the
sheet had fouled the tlller, and she could
not bring the boat up into the wind TO
stop Its way, the sail being so set that
the boat continued running right along
at q terrible rate OF speed. Occupants OF
the other boats soon realized the posi-
tion and made chase, gaining but slowly,
one boat finally being In the lead Of the
others by the time the end OF the Island
was left behind. Right In front lay the
end OF the Ice, broken short by the action
of the tide water, and there the breakers
rolled In, throwing up the anchor Ice,
dashing II down, and then retreating,
sucking II under the dow, and packing II
for another break. For some time 1t was
q question rs TO whether the chasing boat
would catch up with the girl before she
was carried over the edge to certain
death. But at last the boats came to-
gether for one brief second, the girl was
snatched by strong arms to the pursuer's
yacht, the sheet was eased of In fash,
and, spinning around In Its own length,
II was set right before the end instead OF
reaching into II, just as the runaway
dashed over into the anchor Ice. A
short, sharp crack gave notice OF the
parting OF the Ice beneath the very run.
ners OF the now homeward-bound
savior, and with long stsgger, which
only her speed enabled her to Withstand,
she dashed across the fsst-openlng crack,
safe to be brought up In the wind at q
distance, while the late runaway danced
q wreck, among the broken Ice. 1t was
one of the close calls Of ice-yachting
which, thank goodness, very seldom
occur.

BEAUTIFUL. SOFT, WHITE HANDS.


There are some hands which are so
sensitive to outside influences that they
flush almost like the face, becoming
moist with fear or excitement, and
causing their owner much Inconvenience
and discomfort. For hands Of this de-
scription make wash as follows: A
teaspoonful Of borax, . teaspoonful Of
glycerine, and q teaspoonful Of eau de
Cologne. Mix these ingredients thor
oughly together, and put into little
china pot with q lid. Anoint the hands
with the wash after performing the last
sblutions of the evening, and allow It,
as far as possible, to dry on. Ii will
render the flesh firm, and prevent Il
cracking or flushing.
For clsmmy, moist hands, rub lemon
juice, eau de Cologne, or any spirit
thoroughly into them, both outside and
inside, after washing, and use oatmeal
occasionally. Vinegar is also useful
astringent In such case.
When gloves are used for sleeping In,
| IL Is better to slit down the centre Of the
palm, or even cut II away entirely.
These remedies will be found equally
good for the complexion ss for the hands
or the body generally.
| When the hands have been very badly
stained, wash them first In hot water,
and then rub the stain with lemon juice
and salt, and apply the pumice stone. II
the stains be very deep, and refuse TO
move after several wsshipgs, 20 to your
druggist and ask him to make you q
lotion or wash, with oil Of vitriol In It's
composition. This should only be done
as last resource.
A slow circulation Il q great enemy to
white hand during the cold weather.
For this reason II Is good TO rub the
hands and arms gently, especially after
washing, and undervests Of wool With
long sleeves should be worn.
However white hand may be, It's ap-
pesrance Is utterly spoiled II the nails
do not receive proper attention. They
should be filed every day, and cleaned
every time the hands are washed. II the
scarf-skin be pushed gently down, hang
nails will not put In sn appearance, but
II they do, on no account bite or pull
them off; a sharp pair Of scissors must
be used for the purpose. The tips OF the
fingers should be pressed between the
thumb and finger upwards to give them
good shape.
Biting the nails will spoil them with.
out doubt, as well as wither the tips
Of the fingers. Cut or file the nails at
regular periods; they should never be
too short or too long, and do not clean
them with sharp Instrument. Very
short nails cause the tips Of the fingers
to spread and look clumsy; II Is difficult
to keep them clean, they are unsightly,
and often sore. A mere rim beyond the
flesh Is sufficient, and this should always
be cleaned with an ivory instrument.

HINTS For MOTHERS


Children can hardly have too much
fresh air In fine weather, and should be
wheeled briskly, but not carelessly,
along as straight q road as possible.
Wheeling q cart or baby carriage down
3 steep hill is bad for baby's brain.
Babies should not be taken out In
thick fogs-the damp and smoke get
into their little threats and chests, and
make their eyes smart. In extremely
frosty weather, with q north or east
wind blowing and an absence Of sun,
babies ought not to 20 out. 1t Is simply
too bitterly cold for their delicate or
ganizstion, and to expose them IL to
court Group and sore throat, II not bron-
chitis and Inflammation Of the lungs.
The nursery should always be provid.
ed with bottle of good sweet oil; be-
cause II, at the very beginning OF q cold,
the chest and back and the lower part
OF the throat are rubbed with Ii the
child gets good nights rest, and that
always acts favorably. A little oil put
over the bridge Of the nose prevents II
from getting closed up and impeding
shS pAVSshidk'
The more milk little child takes the
better, that Is when Il Ia past babyhood.
A cup Of warm milk between meals,
with crust or biscuit, Is very desir-
able, especially In winter. They very
often cannot eat enough at \ regular
meal time to keep them going till the
next, and allow enough nourishment
for proper growth. This will be con-
sidered rank heresy by many parents.
The best gloves for little ones are the
old-fashioned mittens that have only q
distinct thumb, and comprehend the
rest Of the fingers in sort Of bag. They
must be long, and there should be a loop
inside the sleeve Of the cloak through
which to pass the strings, rs this pre-
vents the child from pulling Its gloves
of, and obviAtes the temptation TO tie
the strings too tight, which impedes the
circulation, and Is very uncomfortable
to the little wrists.

house In Queen Anne street unless spe-

keeper used to look and see who was
there. As an example Of the rarity OF

was great lover OF art and friend OF

no answers to his letters he resolved to
