MAY BEAUTY HELPS

Rainwater gathered in the month Of
May makes the skin fragrant. It is
very soft and it makes up beautifully
into scented lotions for the face. A
quart Of rainwater gathered in May
makes an exquisite cucumber lotion.
The cucumber must be ripe one,
gathered in May, and. simmered down
in the precious May rainwater. When
ready to strain and bottle, few crys-
tails of powdered borax are dropped in
the water and very little Of May per-
fume is added. The result is bottle
of scented stuff which makes the skin
positively fragrant.
Nerve pillows are made in May for
the healing Of tired muscles. They are
made entirely Of May yioletg and May

in the blouse shown by the trimming
bands at yoke depth and on collars
and cuffs. The use Of the tucks is also
unusual and attractive. The trimming
bands are terminated in front and on
the sleeve with pretty buttons and but
tonholes which prove smart and effec-
tive. The blouse was developed in silk
eolienne with trimming bands Of chit
fon broadcloth. Any soft silk or wool
might be adapted to the design. The
