THE NECK BEAUTIFUL.
How Every Woman May Present an
Appearance Pleasing to Herself
and Her Admirers


Nothing is more aggravating to the
average woman than the black, gray
or brown streak that shows around
the neck after the wearing of high
dress collars. The mark is often the
result of bad dye in the facing of the
collar, and half an hour devoted to
facing all of ones collars with white
silk or even white cotton will be well
spent. Sometimes the rubbing of the
stiff band scars the neck, and scrub
bing with hard soap only makes the
skin seem more sensitive, and so still
more darkly bruised.
Loosen the collars a little and have
them finished at the top with a soft
roll of the material. Such finish is
always becoming, and often removes
he trouble in little while.
If the mark must be taken off at
short notice, perhaps because a dress
cut little low in the neck is to be
worn, then anoint the flesh thorough
ly with warm vaseline. Use a soft
linen cloth dipped in vaseline, apply
ing it as If 1T were soap, and turning
the cloth whenever the applied sur
face gets soiled.- This is very impor-
tant, or you will only scrub the stain
in deeper.
Let the neck "rest" a little while.
and then with warm soapsuds and
very soft sponge wash off the grease
thoroughly. Rinse with hot water
several times and then battle with
cold water till the skin is chilled This
should close the pores and leave the
skin dry and smooth. Unless this is
accomplished the open pores and
greasy surface will only promptly at
tract the stain again.
When the skin is entirely dry, dust
well with dry oatmeal. Rub off light
ly, and when the natural color of the
skin is regained, after all the manipu-
lation, the neck WILL in nine cases out
of ten, be pretty and white.
Don't employ rough methods. don't
use ammonia, and never scrub the neck
If you desire to make the skin oeauti-
full and white. Whatever bruises or
enlarges the pores of the skin only
prolongs the difficulty of removing
stains.-Chicago American.

marquis, who was Viscount Clande-
boye. He is just SO and-has been in the
English diplomatic service for the past
nine years, having served at Constan-
tinople, Paris and Stockholm. He be-
came peer the other day, upon the
death of his father, the gallant old
marquis, who was one of the greatest
diplomats, as well as one of the finest
gentlemen, in England. There is prob
ably little doubt that the old noble
man died of broken heart over the fail
ure of Whitaker Wright's company,
the London & Globe, of which Lord
Dufferin had consented to be chair
man without knowing much about the
company's operations. He gave up
most of his fortune to make good the
other shareholders losses. The new
marchioness is a beautiful woman,
mistress of tact and of the art of en-
pertaining, and will be abundantly
able TO sustain her high estate in the
society of Europe. The young earl
was the second son of his celebrated
father, and came in the line of sue
cession on the death of his elder broth
er in Africa two years ago. He is fol-
lowing in the footsteps of his father
in the diplomatic service, and is now
on assignment in the London foreign
office.

to them and screwed as well, and
the sides of the blocks coming
against the wall could be nailed to
the wall, thus forming not only sup
ports to the shelves, but keeping the
uprights in position. Settle how far
the shelves are to be apart and then
carefully measure the spaces off on
both uprights, so that when the
shelves are put in they will be hor-
izontal. The blocks in the angle of
the walls can be nailed on, having
carefully marked the width of the
spaces, so that these blocks CORE
spond with those against the up
rights. In mailing to a wall, it is
better to make a hole with a fine
bradawl before driving home the
nails. The sketch shows seven
shelves, as the one behind the cor

There need not be one at the bot

Having now the two uprights, with
the cornice, plinth and shelves ready,
proceed to put the cupboard toseth-

task If the measurements are cor
rect. The cornice and plinth should
be carefully nailed to the walls.
The projecting shelf from which
the curtain is hung is contrived bv
getting out piece of wood to fit in
front of the shelf and round the two
uprights. The corners must be cut

should be fastened underneath this
projecting shelf to carry the curtain.
