KEEP TOILET ARTICLES CLEAN
Sterilizing Process Highly Conducive
toe Hath, Says an Expert.

IOC Gays oil ENHSIIs
Philadelphia Inquirer.-AlthOugh
the majority of womankind are fairly
we'll informed as to the various
methods used in the newest treatment
for skin or scalp troubles or in the
work of removing traces of neglect,
not one in hundred stops to inquire
into the especially important subject
of sterilizing all instruments neces-
sary in this work in such manner
that the well being Of the patrons
may be assured.
In fact. SO careless are many wom>
en- in this respect that although the
souls of daintiness as far as their per-
sonal belongings are concerned, they
seem to be perfectly oblivious to the
dangers they may run in submitting
to treatments from the hands of one
who is not well enough informed to
realize the imperative demand for
scrupulous attention to the details OF
her work.
For instance, in the popular work
of massage alone there are many
ways in which most disagreeable
cutanea us disorders may be &C
CURED, unless the utmost precaution
is observed. First of all, one should
demand that for each subject clean
covering for the top of the operating
chair must be provided.
The bandage used about the head to
keep teh locks from becoming oily
must also me taken from a freshly
Numbered assortment, while the
towels used about the neck of the
gown will naturally come from the
same source. This is but the begin
ming of the good work and now one
must observe the operator If she
does her work carefully she will scrub
her hands thoroughly not only the
moment she finishes one massage but
also before she commences another,
and in addition she will immerse them
in an antiseptic solution.
The cup that is used for cleansing
the face before the massage is com
menced must also be immersed in a
sufficiently strong lotion and allowed
to remain in this mixture until ready
for use, when it may be rinsed with
very warm water or washed in a
milder lotion, if necessary.
All electric instruments, such as the
rollers, tiny hammers vibratiles, must
also be sterilized in the same manner,
and here, when one might think pre-
cautions could cease, still another
matter is to be considered. This is
i'll connection with the cream to be
used upon the skin for the purpose OF
aiding the manipulation and also for
remedying various defects.
Although this cream is a necessity
and may even have medicinal
qualities, still, if the operator dips
her fingers into the jar and applies
the cream to the face OF one patient,
then continues the same tactics with
others as they appear, the oils may
easily become fertile breeding places
for the very germs one has sought to
avoid by adopting the other pre-
cautions just mentioned. The only
way to avoid this danger is to remove
sufficient cream for use in one mas
sage by dipping a bit of cotton into
the jar, or else by means Of a small
ivory instrument, thus not inserting
the fingers at all.

Jameson received the leadership of British South

ored Premier of Cape Colony; the ransomed
millionaire conspirators of johannesburg were
left at liberty to manipulate the Kaff1- market

remained outside the circle where great rewards
were received for loyal service; and while his
friends knew the charm of oompanionship with
an unselhsh nature and buoyant spirit he was
embittered with a sense of failure, and consid-
cred himself misunderstood and unappreciated.
He was not an empire builder. but only good

face the reputation of having miscalculated the
chances and upsetting everything. n. +.

BACTERIA IN WATER.
Brooklyn People AdUised to Boil 1t
Before Drinking.

Health Commissioner Darlington stated yes-
terday that analysis of the water supply OF
Brooklyn showed the presence of the bacillus
COLI communis. which comes from the entrance
of animal excreta into the source of the water
supply.
The dangers of the situation are not so much
in present conditions as IN the fact that they
are forerunners of serious conditions, which may
obtain at any time said the Commissioner.
I'VE stand In fear that typhoid and dysentery
germs may also make entrance and by the
same means I may say that the conditions are
no better and no worse in Brooklyn than in the
other boroughs of the city.
Commissioner Darlington said that the rem
edy lay In sand filtration and that plants for
that purpose could be put up for all the Dor
oughs at cost not to exceed S1TOO0.0O0. In
the meantime all danger can be obviated by
boiling the water.
