GAZE OF THE FINGER NAILS.

CARE OF THE FINGER NAILS.
The finger nail as it should be IS
about one and a half times as long as it
IS broad, and always shows q crescent
at the base.
Highly polished or pointed nails are
not indicative Of good taste.
They should have a natural gloss anG
be neatly rounded at the top.
II the nails are rounded off with the
file every day they will not need to be
cut with the scissors, which is IN
furious.
In order to keep the crescent at the
base well formed the skin should be
pushed back from the nail with the
towel, or, If necessary, with n blunt
orange stick, every time the hands are
washed.
The orange stick is excellent also for
cleaning the finger nails after they
have soaked few minutes in warm
water containing a little lemon juice.
If the nails show a tendency to brit
tleness a little soaking in warm olive
oil after removing them from the lemon
water and an application o. cold cream
at night will prove beneficial.
In polishing the nails with the cha
mois polisher neither paste nor powder
should be used.
Powder makes the nails brittle, and
paste gives an undesirably high color.
After using the file to round the
finger nails in shape, it is well to use an
emery strip to remove any roughness
that remains.
Persons upon whom nature has not
bestowed taper-shaped fingers some
times try to attain them by the use Of
various Devices
Metal cones reaching to the second
joint, to be worn at night, are sup
posed to secure this result, but unless
one begins at an early age, when the
fingers are soft and amenable to exter-
nal appliances, it is doubtful if they
would produce the desired effect.-New
YorE News.
