Be careful to use only the mildest. blandest, purest. unscented soaps when bathing.
 Rose water. eight ounces, and tine ture of benzoin. two drams, make one of the best skin tonics and whitepers.
 The orange stick is the only nail cleaner necessary. The stick properly pointed will not injure the enamel or the cuticle around the nail.
 To have the best possible effect from face creams the surface of the skin must be thoroughly dry. Any moisture will prevent the pores from absorbing the cream.
 A 3 per cent solution of boracic acid Is invaluable as bath for tired eyes It is also exceedingly effective to use as bath for the face if the skin has become muddy.
 Improper bathing-that is, bathing that is only half portion of a clean ing-will cause the complexion to be- come muddy and yellow. just as i'm proper and partial laundering will ruin fine piece of linen.

THE SIMPLE HOUSE.
How 1t May Be Achieved In an Easy
 Natural Way.


 Natural Way.
 The simple house must not only be simple, but it must be good. Its sim plicity is not that of mere bareness That is something quite different. Sim plicity in house design does not mean q mere denuding of ornament or it's de liberate omission. It means that the house must be designed in a simple way that is also beautiful. Simplicity of design is based on structural devel- opment. In the hands of the skilled de signer these structural lines become also lines of beauty. The construction therefore. becomes beautiful construc- tion. and the simple house is achieved in q natural, beautiful way
 Fairness. severity. commonplace ness. barrenness, must not be confused with simplicity. There must be artis- tic effort or the house will be con- pletely wanting in external merit. A fussy house will not necessarily be made beautiful by stripping it of its ornament. 1t may be bettered-at lcas' t will be rid of unnecessary parts. rhe evil is more deeply rooted than that It lies in the very bone and sinew of the house. and the remedy. if there can be remedy. must be applied to the whole structure.
 Mere p!ainness in house building has no positive qualities of excellence. A house that is merely plain and with no other quality has nothing else to rec ommend it. The simple house, on the other hand, has beauty in it's simplici ty, beauty due to it's fine lines and to the harmony of all the parts.- American Homes and Gardens.
