brush. With a strap across the back, and an adjustable handle, for the back.
 A quick scrub" with this brush and a fine rubbing with rough towel af- terward will put your body in 2 splen-. did glow. and do more for you than any tonic sold from a drug shop. A brisk rub night and m orning will prove great boon. The pores must he kept open so that the impurities from the body can pass through, and only the scrub bath Will do that. And 1t keeps the skin so smooth and beautiful. I advocate massage treat ment as most beautifylng and health full and vapor bath not oftener than once al week will do wonders. The greatest luxury of modern times | Is the shower bath. Step under a show CT with the temperature of the water about so degrees F. Use the stiff brush I just spoke about. and good soap. Then gradually turn on the cold water. In that way there Is no shock Let the cold water particularly strike your throat and lungs and back. Qf you are subject to throat trouble You will find that the cold water treatment is splendid.)
 Then dry with rough towel. putting the body into a glow. After hath like that you will feel several years younger and look younger But 1t is not necessary to have shower bath. Just an ordinary bowl of water will do. It IS all Tn the brisk scrubbing and rubdown after ward.
 think a Turkish bath once a month is beneficial, if pc rsOp's heart is In good condition. do not believe in an alcohol rub afterward. A splendid rub bling with a rough towel will answer every purpose.
 wish the women of today would take better care of their bodies. Just a few dollars a month will keep ones body In fine condition. Some women say they are pressed for time and must | necessarily neglect themselves. But taking care of ones body does not take as much time as thought.
 Let me sum 1t up Ten minutes twice day for bathing; about five minutes for the finger nails: five min utes for the feet. Then once in two weeks we spend an hour In having our hair shampooed and dressed; once a week about an hour and half having our finger nails manicured and our feet pedicured Surely all that time and the money It costs is we'll spent. Now young lady speaks up and says. .I can't do all thai. for am in business and never get a day of but Sundays, and that day have to rest"
 Taking care of ones body Is resting. ynt ha tn ha nf b. AfF1 tain time in the morning, do not sleep up to the last minute, having just time to fall into your clothes, like a fireman. Get up in plenty of time to have your bath ami attend to your na!.E. You will feel better all day for your quick bath. Put little sea salt into your bath when you can. That will work wonders.
 Before You go to sleep take another quick five-minute bath. Go to sleep at reasonable hour. so that you will feel rested when the time comes for you to be up In the morning. Co to bed with the lamb and rise with the lark" is an old proverb. One hours sleep before midnight Is worth two af- terward. Try to sleep eight hours. From ten to six is a good timc Eleven to seven if you do not have to be at the office before nine.
 
 Few people know the value of sleep. Natures sweet restorer, balmy sleep" Women should indulge in it freely as a beautifier. It keeps away crows feet and keeps the eyes bright. A hard mattress. plenty of covering and a we'll aired room is one of the secrets of heaMh. I find sleeping face down, ly- ing on the abdomen is d pleasant. healthful way to sleep. Use small. Soft pillow. Do without l pillow if you can, but if you have to have one, sleep on a small one. have tried all positions recommended by physicians most comfortable.
 Air your room well. Always sleep with the window open. but be sure to be out of the draft. Do not ever let the cold air. or any air. winter or sum- mer, blow on you. I mean In the house. Of course, when sleeping out of doors. as people do here. there is no draught It Is such mistake for u person to take pillow on d hct night and go and Ike on the floor or cn a couch under an open window. Some constitutions may be able to stand It, but the majority of people cannot stand 1t. Neuralgia, rheuma.ism. consumption and other ailments have come from just that i'm prudence. and then people wonder why the dear Lord affiicts them so.
 or course I know nothing of Ariz- ona summers, and never expect to. If I stayed here through one I might do all kinds of things, like unto other mor- tals. such as lying Tn draughts drink ing heaps and heaps of ice water, etc., but hope to be able to steer clear of such things. just as avoid the bunk CTS and hazards out at the golf links.
