THE USE OF FACE POWDERS
They Contain Harmful as Well as
Harmless Substances to.
Some Skins.

propose to say a few words on the in
dCence of powders in the making and in
the marring Of the complexion. AS a
matter of fact, owing to the manner in
which these cosmetics are abused, the
general tendency is to mar rather than
to make, although the immediate effect
may be both satisfactory and pleasing.
The great mistake that is generally made
Is that these so-called aids to beauty are
used Unfortunately and irrespectively
of the idiosyncraSieS and peculiarities of
the skin to which they are applied.
1t must be remembered that the basis of
the great majority of powders is starch
substance which in itself is harmless.
1t has, however, drying properties, and
therefore should not be used thoughtless-
ly when the skin is naturally dry, And,
further than this, it should not be forgot
ten that starch is not soluble in either
hot or cold water, and, therefore, can
not be removed from the pores and in
terstices of the skin by the ordinary
methods of washing. In fact, it not in
frequently happens that, owing to this
difficulty in removing it after it has once
been applied. certain of the pores of the
skin become blocked and ultimately re-
suit in>blackheads or even in boils The
most common addition to the powders
of which the basis is, starch, is borax or
boracic ecid. These substances, again.
are comparatively harmless, are solu-
Bile in water, and act as mild antiseptics,
but, like starch, they also have drying
properties, and hence should not be lay
ishly used unless the skin is naturally
moist. For greasy skins they are par
ticularly useful.
Among the more harmful substances
which are added to these powders are
zinc oxide and certain preparations of
bismuth. These salts, though particu-
,arly soothing toirritated skins. have dis
advantages which it is worth while to re-
member. Both of them, when applied
to greasy skins, are apt to turn a some
what greyish blue hue which presents the
CHASTITY appearance with which we are so
familiar in the case of skins which have
been enamelled for considerable period
of time.

Every summer and fall her capac-

and coltsfoot, duly labelled, were hung
up, together with punches of sarsapa-

Perhaps one Of the newest ideas in

this style of frame would only be de-

combinations of colors and materials:

knows that bit of color is. like a. ray

every one look and feel better:

The long graves of the heeted year.

ladies of the Tryphena Club took part in
the exercises of the afternoon and in the
evening. Sec. Tead of the c. E. S. gave

Mrs. George H. Cross and Mrs. Robert

Woman's Club.
Educatien she Subject of the October
Meeting.


Meeting.
At the business meeting OF the Woman's
club Monday afternoon it was announced
that the ''Club Woman" would be con-
tinued at the library another year; and
also that an effort would be made to
have complete file of the club year
books at the library, together with any
other public documents in print belong
ing to the club, that are worthy OF pres
ervation. These may be referred to at
any time by club members or others,
through the courtesy of Rev. DR.. 3D.
ward T. Fairbanks, librarian. An in
vitation has been extended to the club
from the W. c. T. u, to consider with
them the advisability OF a curfew bell for
the village, and the question will be con-
sidered and reported on at another meet
ing. The child labor law was again
presented and Mrs. A. B. Moves spoke of
the law and its amendments, and the
club voted to instruct the secretary to
ask the senator and representative from
this town to do all in their power to
support it in its passage.
The program for the afternoon was in
charge of the education committee, Mrs.
c. II. Merrill, chairman. Mrs. Merrill
spoke of the completed work of the COM
mittee, thus far, in the vacation school,
of its success, and the work accomplished
by the pupils, some specimens of which
were exhibited. Miss Della I. Griffin
gave several mental pictures of the work
done in the school, which gave those who
did not otherwise know a very good
idea OF its workings. She gave due cred
it to the teachers for their faithful work
and to the committee in charge, especially
to the chairman. This appreciation was
voiced by rising vote of the club.
Mrs. Merrill then presented Miss Lucy
M. Sinclair, who spoke very Interestingly
of the text books used in former years,
compared with the very attractive books
OF the present day, and of the great diff
ference in the methods Of teaching. She
made clear the fact that there was a
scarcity of books in earlier years, and the
opportunities were lacking to make the
methods as attractive or practical as
now. She had as illustrations some
quite ancient books, to the special "at-
fractions" of which she called attention.
The other speaker of the afternoon was
c. Fl. Dempsey, who was cordially re-
ceived and who gave very instructive
talk on the relations Of teachers and par
ents. His principal topic was division of
labor, and under this head he spoke of
'the acquiring of physical vigor and
strength" moral training" including
truthfulness, reliability, and self control;
mental growth" =" including applica ton.
order, system, and prompt obedience;
couture and balance the training of
powers of observation in the right direc-
tions; as requiring equal interest of par
ents and teachers. He spoke apprecia-
lively of the assistance the Woman's
Club has always given to the teachers
and school directors. The public school
teachers were guests of the club at this
meeting.
