TO KEEP PRETTY HANDS.
II Yoa Pay Attention to This Bunch
Of "Don'ts" YOu Can Have Them
the Year Around.

Don't polish nails too highly; they
should have only natural gloss. Too
much polishing makes them tender.
Don't polish nails without first rub
bling on a little rose-tinted paste. Use
the palm of the hand to polish.
Don't cut nails without first holding
them in warm water or sweet oil.
Don't cut them too often, or they
will become thick and ugly.
Don't cut the cuticle or any part of
the flesh around the nails.
Don't cut the nails in points, but let
them be carefully arched.
Don't use a file or emery paper on
che fat surface of the nail, but only
On the elge, to level II.
Don't dry the hands with towel,
but with a silk handkerchief, which
absorbs moisture more readily.
Don't wear gloves every night, or the
hands will become yellow. Occasional
use, of gloves, however, is advisable.
Don't use ammonia in the bath with
out applying Q cold cream afterward.
Don't let the hands hang down, or
the blood will I'LL and stretch tho veins.
Don't forget that warm feet have
much to do with white hands. When
the feet are habitually cold. the hands
are always red or blue. Washington

a woman works for living that II de-

graces; neither do think that n wo-
man that works is not as good house

at home. think to get out in the
world and work serves to broaden
ones ideas, and am sure some of the
workers appreciate their homes a
great deal more from the fact that
they are at home so little. To work
shows one how fortunate the woman

IN VIOLET TIME.


A bunch Of violets. dusk and sweet. -
Bought In a busy London street.
And wet with April rain!
Back. back the waves Of memory flow
To one dear haunt OF long ago:
A blossom-scented lane.
And there, beneath a dropping tree,
With smiling lips. she waits for me
The maid ] love the best.
Her hair has caught the sunset-light;
She wears a gown OF softest white,
With violets at her breast.
Again, through grassy paths we walk.
And talk as none but lovers talk,
While time unheeded flies.
The gold light fades, the sun Is set.
Twill soon be dark; and yet. and yet
There's sunshine In her eyes.
The moon climbs high above the thatch.
We hear softly lifted latch.
A distant clock strikes nine!
Then. 'twixt the silver and the gray,
"A bunch of violets finds It way
From her warm heart to mine.
All, love! your flowers died long ago.
Spring, summer, autumn-fell the snow
Ger countryside and town;
But often in my dreams / see
A little maid who smiles at me.
With violets In her gown.
Fate willed that from those far-on days
Your feet should tread the quiet ways,
And mine the noisler street.
Yet when 1 hear a fiower-girrs cry
IT'S for your sake I stop and buy
Her violets dusk and sweet
