For the Hands,

The eXigencics of domestic life make
many people treat their hands as If
they were insenstiye things. The fol
lowing simple rules may bring each
sufferer solid comfort. The hands are
to be rubbed at night with mixture
of lanoline, one part. and sweet al
mond oil, three parts. Large gloves
of kid or leather are then to be worn,
says the Kansas City Journal.
For washing the hands the best soap
and warm water must be used. and it is
preferable to employ a lather. Rinsing
should always follow a lather.

1t has long been a debatable ques-
tion whether heredity or environment
Is Hpsponsible for the depravity and
degeneracy of children. In either
case It is the parent and not the
child upon whom the responsibility
should rest II the Iowa Juvenile
court law will compel parents to
look after their children better, in
stead of hauling them into court on the
least provocation and asking that
they be sent to Jail or the reform
school, 1t will have done such a great
and good work that all the omissions
of the legislators in the framing of
the law will be forgiven and forgot
