Specially Prepared for Our Feminine Readers

You will find them white and GER
tainly smooth.
Tincture of benzoin is the best
smoothening agent a rough hand can
have. Pour five drops of it into pint
of water and wash the hands in it.
.
For hands that are inclined to freckle
cut lemon is good. A lemon should
be upon every dressing table, and its
halves should be used daily, not only
for the hands, but for spots upon the
face. There is no better toilet COM
panion than half lemon.
For hands that are chapped the lem
on will not be of benefit, but there is
another and simple cure for them.
Into tablespoon of cold cream,
melted over hot water, stir as much
ground oatmeal as it will take. Make
into a paste and spread upon the backs
of the hands. Put on a pair of gloves
two sizes too large and let the hand~
lie in them all afternoon while you
read or take a nap.
If the hands are red or dark then
they must be bleached. There are sew
eral simple beaches, one of the quick
est of which has for it's foundation the
juice of cucumber.
Add to half a teacUp of cold oatmeal
and stir well together. To this put a
tablespoon of almond oil. Stir again
and the whole will be milky paste.
Rip open the back of a pair of gloves
three sizes too big and spread the mix
ture inside, filing the fingers. Put on
the gloves and let some kind friends
sew up the backs. Worn two hours,
this treatment will give the hands a
white, smooth surface.
There is still more effective whiten-
err but it cannot be used for so long a
time. 1t iS made by stirring the juice
of a lemon into cold cream, drop by
drop. Finally the whole is made thick
with almond meal, This paste is spread
upon the hands, which are incased in
gloves.
When the hands are taken out they
are washed in soap and water and are
anointed with few drops of sweet oil,
not enough to wet them, but merely to
soothe the skin, which will be slightly
irritated.

Outing Footgear.

The woman who finds her recreation
in summer on the golf links, yachting,
promenading the beach, climbing
mountains, playing tennis or ping
pong, has to look out for special foot
gear. Patent leather shoes with Louis
Quinz heels are discarded for more sub
stantial pedal covering.
In the display of smart outing shoes
made by one of the big shops are white
canvas oxford ties, with light colored
leather soles and heels, or with rubber
soles.
White suede ovfords of stylish aspect
have rubber soles.
Good-looking ties of coolie cloth
which resembles grass linen have
leather soles and heels. and are an
easy and cool form of footgear.
Then there are the outing oxfords of
tan calf. with rubber soles.
Tennis ties are of black canvas, with
leather trimmings, and these, too, have
rubber soles.
Ping-pong ties are of red, white or
blue canvas, with black trimmings, the
sole being of rubber. Ping pong ties
come in juvenile sizes also, and are
very popular.
For golf are the high-laced shoes of
tan calf, with very heavy sole and rub
Der spikes in addition, on sole and heel.
These come in black calf also.

Whims of Fashion.

White kid belts, with gilt buckles,
are fashionable to wear with white
shirt waists.
Very smart is the blouse of ethereal
fabric which bags all around
A touch of black in some form or
other appears on almost every gown.
White serge yachting costumes are
effective trimmed with bands of white
MORE, the "watered" lines waving in
unison with the sea waves. To carry
out the nautical mode, buttons painted
with exquisite marine views, are used.
Very smart are the wide sash rib
bons of MORE, with polka dots woven
in them.
The poSy Strewn muslins are among
the prettiest summer frocks, and will
be a picturesque accompaniment of the
large fiat fower-trimmed hats, if it
ever gets warm enough to wear them.
A charming frou frou sunshade is of
seashell pink chiffon, yelled with white
gauze and showered with silver pail
liettes.
Clusters of sweet peas, roses or other
flowers tied with a ribbon make a
Frenchy little brooch design.
Rose bowls of opalescent glass are
graceful receptacles for June's lovely
flower.
The blue rose is millinery novelty
There are also green rose and a black
rose, and, according to the latest an
nouncement from Paris. the more
faded and bruised looking the rose, the
more it is sought for in millinery
Blouses of white net, dotted or
sprigged, lined with chiffon or with
mousseline-veiled taffeta, are the new
est thing TO wear with white linen, wool
and pongee frocks.

Home From School.


Now here 1 am in good old place
Yes, little mother, I'm here to stay.
Let me hold your hair against my face
And kiss both cheeks in the dear old
way.
Just look at me hardin well and
strong;
Just feel my arms-they'n stand the
test;
I'll go to the kitchen where belong;
You go to the porch and rest.
Now, hear, little mother, you dear lit
tie mother,
Sit under the vines and rest.
1 liked my teachers; 1 liked my books;
1 had my share of the pranks and
fun;
But my heart came back to the sweet
home hooks,
And rested with you when the day
was done.
1 used to think what you had for tea;
Just what you were doing and how
you were dressed;
And somehow or other it seemed to me
You didn't take half enough rest.
You sly little mother, you spry little
mother.
Dear little mother, it brings the tears
Whenever | think what I've let you
do;
You've planned for my pleasure years
and years
It's time l planned a little for you.
So drop that apron and smooth your
hair;
Read, visit or knit, what suits you
best;
Lean back in your chair, let go your
care,
And really and truly rest.
You neat little mother, you sweet little
mother,
Just take vacation and rest.

A Flint for Helpine Hands

What do you do with the magazines
and illustrated papers at your house?
Once there was an epidemic of scar
let fever in our village, and from a
dozen houses there hung out red flags,
telling of little red-faced, ore-throated
patients, and of mothers and aunts
in quarantine with them.
Some girls whom 1 knew made a
dozen bundles of old magazines, and
dropped them at these quarantined
doors. to be thrust into the sick rooms.
All, what large returns of gratitude
they earned
For you see, a scarlet fever nurse
cannot borrow a book, or get one from
a public library, for fear of infection,
ana yet there are weary vigils when
something to read is a boon.
Moreover, long after the little con-
valescents can sit up and play their
eyes are not strong enough to read,
and the ''peeling' ands are dangerous
to books. Then the magazines may be
cut up, and the ladies and gentlemen
used as paper dolls. and the wonderful
advertisement cards turned into picture
galleries. until the big bonfire receives
them at the end of the long siege
This hint is especially for contagious
diseases, but any sick child, or mother
on nurse duty, would be grateful for
such thoughtful help over a weary way.

Neatness in Girls.

Neatness is a good thing for a girl,
and if she does not learn it when
young she never will. It takes great
deal more neatness to make a girl look
well than it does to make a boy look
passable. Not because boy, to start
with, is better looking than a girl, but
his clothes are of a different sort, not
so many colors in them. and people do
not expect a boy to look SO pretty as
a girl. A girl that is not neatly dressed
is called a sloven and no one likes to
look at her Her face may be pretty,
and her eyes bright but if there is a
spot of dirt on her cheek, and her fin
ger ends are black with ink, and her
shoes are not laced or buttoned, and
her skirt is torn, she cannot be liked.
Learn to be neat.

tiles affords gentle dignity which is
a charming attraction. Forward women
are generally disliked. They may be
witty and bright, but the courage they
manifest is too coarse to please re-
fined minds. The woman who is too
backward in her manner places her
self at disadvantage. She is gener-
ally self-conscious creature, whose
society is rarely sought. A well-bred
woman makes herself interesting by
endeavoring to unselfishly please 9TH
ers. She knows how to be friend
without being too familiar. She has
an infinite amount of respect for the
feelings of others, which is one of the
secrets of her success.

Politely Omitted.

This amusing story was told of the
little niece of Phillips Brooks. the ia
nous divine, relates the Philadelphia
Times:
One evening as her mother was tuck
ing her snugly in bed, the maid stepped
in and said there was a caller waiting
in the parlor. Her mother told the
little one to say her prayer, and said
that she would be back in few mo-
ments.
The caller stayed only a short time,
and when the mother went upstairs
again she asked the little girl if she
had said her prayer.
Yes, mamma, ] did and I didn't"
she said.
What do you mean by that, dear?"
well, mamma, / was awfully sleepy,
so I just asked God if he wouldn't ex-
cuse me tonight, and he said: oh,
don't mention it, Miss Brooks

THE VINE AND THE BROOK

A vine grows by my doorway,
All budding green and fair,
Fed by the light of heaven,
Kent in the fathers care.
Mute is the vine to thank Him?
Blind to His love, think you?
Nav 1t doth climb 10 reach Him.
Through sun and shower and dew.
This is Its daily purpose.
Here at my cottage door,
To spend It's strength to seek Him,
And live for nothing more.
A stream flows through my garden
Among tall, swaying ferns,
And. splashing Ger the pebbles,
The miller's wheel il turns.
Think you it scorns the service
God giveth it each day?
No. 1t doth sing praise to Him,
Laughing the hours away
For ii hath learned the secret
To blend with work a psalm
As on its way it dances
Past cottage, mill and farm.
And. as I see my ivy
Climb through the summer neat
And hear the brooklet singing
To grind the miller's wheat,
Why do l stand regretful,
And i'll at ease the while?
Does something mar the muslng,
And chase away my smile?
The vine and brook are teachers,
Though / be more than they;
For / forget my climbing,
And do not sing Away.

A DEFENSE FUND.
Plan to Raise a Big One For Striking
Miners

Wilkesbarre, Pa, July "a national
defense fund to which all organized
labor and the public in general will be
asked to contribute is the latest PROPOSE
ton placed on foot to help the strik-
ing anthracite coal miners if they need
assistance in their struggle for higher
wages and shorter work day. Henry
White of New York, secretary of the
National Garment Workers and MEM
Der of the Cancellation committee of the
national civic federation, had a long
conference with President Mitchell dur
miners chief, and Mr.. White will at
once begin preparations TO carry out
the plan. President Mitchell wants it
understood, however, tliet the miners
union will accept no aid until their own
resources are exhausted. Mr.. White
came here authorized by several Labor
organizations to place the proposition
before Sfresldens Mitensl. AFTER the
ing to say about the matter beyond that
he approved the plan. Mr.. White gave
out the following statement:
President Mitchell says that before
soliciting outside support the miners at
work must set the example themselves
by contributing considerable portion
of their earnings to sustain their fellow
members in the hard coal fields who are
fighting their common battle. This will
be determined upon at the Indian
apolis convention. Mr.. Mitchell also
welcomed the aid rendered by men of
means and influence outside the ranks
of organized labor.
Efforts will also be made to originate
a movement throughout the country, Sc
that the unions and others may be
prepared to collect funds when the time
is propitfous.
Public men will also undertake an
Independent movement and solicit SUBJ
scriptions from those not connected
with labor organizations.

rid the city of all the ootton-bearing
