I,enpft Of Exercise.

Next to bodily cleanliness, exercise
may De reckoned as the greatest aid
to beauty. In fact, exercise is almost
necessary to cleanliness, for it is a
great incentive to pefspiration, which
is natures way of throwing the impu-
rites of the body to the surface of the
skin, from whence they are then re-
moved by the use of water. Cpen-alr
exercise should be taken every day,
but according to strength. One Should
return home after walking, riding or
cycling with a sense Of being pleasant
ly fatigued, but without any feeling OF
exhaustion. Exercise should be taken
regularly, and, if possible, dumb-bells
should bc used night and morning. The
corset should not be worn while eXer-
cising with dunib-bells. Skipping is
an excellent exercise for the figure, and
il is one of which our grandmothers
we're fonu. 1t is usual with children
to throw the rope forward when skip
ping, but it is far better to throw it
backward. for it expands the chest
much better.

save the Scraps of Wall Paper.

No scraps of wall paper should be
thrown away. They Can be utilized IN
a dozen different and pretty ways.
One Of the charming things makable
from them is a lamp shade. Cartridge
paper in old rose, oak, yellow, stone
brown, sage green. aid reglmental

as invsiDly as possible. Bind the top
and bottom c.; the shade with a mar
row strip of smooth paper, paper bor-

either darker or lighter in tone than
the paper of the shade itself. The re-
suits gotten by this simple means
ore so good that many women now
buy or beg scraps of wall paper from
rapering establishments. When car
fridge paper is used, it can be decor.

Starch Polish.

"Where;s the starch polish?' called
the new girl on Monday, after the
manner of new girls" who take it for
granted that all the special require
ments of my way Of doin' things"
must be at hand when demanded.
This particular variety Of starch pol
ish was not on hand on this occasion,
however, and the process OF prepar-
ing it was watched with interest. One
ounce of pure white wax was mixed
with two ounces Of spermateci and a
large pinch of salt. When melted an
thoroughly blended this was poured IN
to cup to become cold, and 1t soon
formed a hard white cake that will
not mould or sour.
A piece about the size of a grain OF
corn is put into sufficient hot starch
for two or three shirts. Then, in iron
ing, after pressing we'll once, the
i1oned surface is dampened with a
clean, soft, damp cloth and rubbed
with the iron until glossy. The iron
must be moderately hot-if too hot
the shirt bosom will become yellow
during the polishing; if too cool 1t
will take longer 10 give the right pol
ish.-Philaielphia Record.

Over the thin face there swept a

beautiful flush.
"Is that for me?" she said, in al awe
struck voice. "Oh, thank you, thank
you"
There was so much radiance in the
lCok that Madam Jackson was startled,
and then a wonderful thing happened.
For the moment it seemed as II the
years had rolled back, and the worn
face shone with it's lost beauty and its
lost youth.
The eyes were very bright. a tender
smile hovered over the tremulous
mouth, and Madam Jackson saw what
the woman must have been long ago,
before the hard years had robbed ner
Of her bloom.
Il wish John could see me- the lit
tie woman whispered.
AS if in answer to her wish. there
came a knock at the door. Madam
Jackson opened it quickly.
Come in, won't your sne said,
pleasantly. Your VIE is a-xlous to
have you see ner in her new dress.
The man entered. When the blue
gowned. radiant vision faced him. he
started. why. Loilic, he said, 'why
my dear. is it really you?'
"Do.you like it, John?' she said.
Like it! Why, you look just as
you did when we we're married, only
somehow, sweeteH and dearer." and
then, regardless of Madam Jackson in
the background. he took the small
woman in his arms and kissed her on
her glowing cheeks.
A few minutes later Madam Jackson
stood at the window and watched them
drive away with the blue dress care
fully wrapped up. The flush still lin
gered on the little woman's face as
she waved last good-by.
Madam Jackson waved back. She
knew that before long the flush would
fade from her friends cheek. the
lines would come back, the cares re-
turn. The burdens must be taken up
again.
There would come, too, the weary
hours and the lonely ones that must
be lived through. The blue dress
would be folded away as something
sacred. seldom worn, but never forgot
ten. There would be something beau
t;ful at least to look at in the bare old
farmhouse.
AS the rattling wagon disappeared
Madam Jackson turiled away from the
window with a smile that was half a
sigh.

after ALL she murmured.-Youth's

ten inches in width. In the dining
room it may extend all around, If de-
sired. to hold ornamental china, stems,
pitchers or other objects of which the

The height should conform to the
wall decoration, and the shelf may be
as high as the door casing with ad-
vantage.
In den or sitting room, where it IS
intended for bric-a-brac, photographs

There is room for the display of a
good deal Of taste in the placing OF

to stand upon it, the furniture of the
