HOW TO HAVE NICE HANDS
French Manicure Says Much Can BE-
Done by Keeping Nails
in Good Order.

Longing for lovely hands is natu-
raj.
1t is a recognized fact that French
women possess the most beautiful
hands. The hand itself is neither to,
fat nor too thin, but exactly in proper
ton with the long, slender, taperirl
fingers, while the nails are of u beautiful
delicate pink, their charm enhanced b,
the pretty half-moons at the base o.
each.
With the view of learning the secret
of some of the beautiful hands in Paris
| once called upon the best-known mani.
cure of the French capital and asked
her to tell me her method of dealing
with hands which had grown thick OF
fat, with the fingers short and square
says a writer in the Philadelphia Nortl
American.
"In the first place." she said, II gel
q basin of skin food or soft sweet oil
and fill it until the hands are almost
covered. This makes the fingers soft
and oily, and after a time | lift them
out and give them a thorough wash
ing with very hot water and very good
soap.
1.-THE hands are then dried and a little
skin food rubbed in.
IF you want pink pals, a little rouge
is put upon the nail, and if you want
them very bright, the polisher is used.
But If you prefer them dull, then leave
them just as they are."

Gated, although she has heard the story

that she had no fear of his doing him
any harm with pistol or razor. He had
taken other small articles with him

pistol. She knows his reason for his
leaving but considered that was theii
own business. Mrs. Pullen said she was

FAF
FORMER PASTOR IN
FOOTBALL GAME.

Rev, NJ. Wayne Womer, pastor of
the Wesley Methodist church, Belle-
vile, formerly OF Woodbridge, played
In a game of football Saturday at the
old Riverside grounds, on Belleville
avenue. He filled the position Of
right guard for the Belleville Athletic
Club. which defeated the Park Athle-
tic Club by tile score of IL to D. Mr..
Womer was right in the game from
start to finish and contributed largely
toward his teams victory. Many of
his congregation were on hand to see
him play and all went home surprised
at the agility aud proves of their
pastor.
When the manager of the Belleville
team was getting his men together a
few weeks ago, Mr.. Womer asked for
a position ON the eleven. He had
played football for four consecutive
years with the Ohio Wesleyan Univer-
sary team, which had q very strong
team, and he liked the game. He was
not permitted to play while at Drew
Seminary, and he soon found himself
getting "soft'' and stout. For the
good resulting from the exercise he
WAS anxious to get back into the
game. The manager thought the
Clergyman was joking, but after see
ing the latter practise he became con.
WINGED of his sincerity, and was glad
to get such a valuable acquisition to
his team.
MIR. Womer possesses a fine physi-
que. weighs $50 pounds n is five
feet eleven and one-half inches tall.
He was one of the most enthusiastic
players on the field Saturday and was
