Why Starched Clothes Are UnheaIthfuI

Hygienists have been making
starched clothing the subject of their
Investigations and have established the
fact that starched garments act as a
barrier to the escape of heat from the
body. One, therefore, would suppose
that these starched garments, which,
as everybody knows, heat us so un-
comfortably in summer, would at least
have the advantage OF keeping the
body warm in winter, on account of
being a nOn-conductOr of heat. This,
however, is not the case, for the value
of starched pieces as nOn-conductorS
increases with the increase of outer
creaSes with the drop of the thermOm-
eter. This means, therefore, that in
winter, when we try our utmost to
keep the body warm and prevent as
much as possible of the escape of ami
NAL heat, the starchy raiment is re-
Guced to minimum as a protector on
account of the outer cold and in sum
mer. when we wish to keep cool. these
same garments are effectual in hold
ing back the heat of the body 1t is
also to be noticed that when perspira-
ton runs the starch, it not only clogs
up the pores of the linen, bat also
those of the body. and in that way
adds to the difficulty of entrance Of
cool air to the body. 1t is seen. there
fore. that the starching of the washing
is not only impractical. but also Il
imical to health. and perhaps when
this fact is recognized Universally dame
fashion may cond mn the pra tice.

4 New Sea Port.

There is a lusty young city grow
ing up down in Texas which is attract
ing widespread attention. 1t is La
Porte. located at the head of Calves
ton Bay. 1t is being made the great
seaport of the Gulf Of Mexico, the
meeting place of rail and water ways
for the vast commerce of the west.
The saving to western shippers via
this export outlet will run into mil
lions annually. The city has the most
magnificent natural port on the south
ern coast of the United States and one
of the best in the world. The
L. S. government is completing
a deep water channel through the bay
TO the gulf. which will soon bring the
largest ocean liners to La Porte docks
and wharfs.

Several hundred thousands of Amer

Several hundred thousands of Amer
leans find the American Monthly Re-
view of Reviews very useful and help
full reading In the political year it
becomes fairly necessary. In no presi-
Dental year will this be more true
than in 1900, with the many import
ant problems created by the cOuntry's
new colonial duties. In DR.. Shaw's
editorial survey of the month, in the
timely contributed features, in the de-
partments reviewing the other maya
zines of the world, the alert reader
finds each month a full and accurate
presentation of the political news,
with able discussions of the economic
and social questions which are inter
esting everybody. The authoritative
character-sketches of the presidential
candidates and other notable figures
appear at the hour when public inter-
est is greatest in these subjects. The
portrayal of current history in the best
caricatures of each month is not the
least attractive of these many helps
to a right understanding of ones own
times, and ones own public duties.
Each number is illustrated with nearly
a hundred timely pictures.

Simple Carelessness.

The average woman viii pay great
and the style of the neckbands she
must wear, and the way to arrange her
hair, and the fit OF her gloves; but she
will dose her face with cold water and
bad soap, use powder carelessly, and
then wonder why her skin is not
lovely. | have known women's skins
to be positively grimy and they we're
unconscious of the fact. | have known
their noses to be filled with black
specks which were nothing but dirt,
and yet these women believed that
cleanliness is next to godliness. They
simply did not know how to take care
of themselves. If woman wants to
keep her face in good condition. she
wants TO wash it once a day with hot
water. Not so hot that it stings for
that scratches the skin. The soap may
be 10 cents a cake, but she wants to
know that it is pure. Nothing with
turpentine or resin. Soaps with oil
are the best. When she finishes with
this she must rinse the face with clean
warm water, not a mere dash. but a
good, wholesome soaking Then rinse
with entirely cold water until every
bit of the face tingles and the blood
is brought to the cheeks. Once a week
she should steam her face.

The Fruits TO Eat.

Prunes afford the highest nerve or
brain food, supply heat and waste but
are not muscle feeding. They should
be avoided by those who suffer from
the liver The great majority of small
fresh seed fruits are laxative. All
stone fruits are considered to be inju-
riOus for those who suffer from the
liver, and should be used cautiously.
Apples supply the higher nerve and
muscle food, but do not give stay.
Oranges are refreshing and feeding.
but are not good if the liver is out of
order. Lemons and tomatoes should
not be used daily in cold weather; they
have thinning and COO ing effect.

Company Dinners.

Writing on Making Company of
Guests" Edward Box, in the December
Ladies Home Journal, considers lit a
curious fact that American housewives
are so lOath to believe that a dinner
with fuss and feathers is dreaded by
the vast majority of people. The
highest compliment we can possibly
show a guest at dinner is to let him
partake of an ordinary meal-to let
him come quietly in and be one of
the family'-yet this is the very COM
pliment which we withhold from him.
Instead of giving a guest what he
would relish most. we give him what
he really enjoys best. Let hostess
be ever so graceful and tactful. let
there be years of experience on her
shoulders, yet nothing can conceal
rom her guests that the dinner which
she is serving is other than an I'M
usual one. 1t is formal affair. and
no amount of grace can make any
thing else of it. For nothing speaks
formal company dinner. Every course
shows it: every movement of the wait
ress proclaims it: every piece of china
fairly cries out the occasion. And of
course no one at the table really en-
joys *. The guest certainly does not,
because he knows he is being made
company of. and that feeling is always
enough to Offset every enjoyment The
hostess does not, for she hasn't the

A woman who has beautiful hands

best results, and is certainly simple.
Never dry your hands after washing

There is a theory that this whitens

then put on gloves for the night; this
only increases the tendency to chap.
Never use a steel file on the nails. 1t
thickens them and makes them coarse.
Soak the tips of your fingers in hot
water till the nail is pliable-this pre-
vents breaking. With the bowed scis-
sOrs cut carefully in the shape Of an

Never cut the cuticle, but carefully

polish. If there are hangnails, it is
better to tear them Off not roughly,
