every township in the State there is
either special or a bond tax, and
that this !hree-mill tax will just about
balance the special levies. He has
gone to the trouble Of figuring on the
increased assessment, and has found
that in the counties on which he has
figured the special levies will be about
covered by the three. mill ta;x and
that if the ,hree.mill tax raises
an amount equivalent to'the speaial
!. school taxes, then there is no need fol

BEAUTY OF THE SKIN

The clearness and consequently the
beauty of the skin depends SO much
upon the health Of the body that no
one can hope to have brilliant and
healthy complexion who suffers from IN
neuralgia, anemia, ETC.; there
fore due regard must be paid to every
thing which affects the general health
il you want your skin to be in good
condition. The best aids to beauty are
abundant additions Of the entire body,
wholesome and easily digested food,
plenty of fresh air and sufficient sleep.
Sometimes where the skin is very
greasy, sallow and filed with ugly spots
that seem neither oliver spots" nor
freckles, just "blotches," this method
Of applying lemon juice may prove
good: Fill cup half full Of milk and
squeeze the juice Of half lemon into
it; curd forms, of course, and this
should be applied freely to the face
and neck; the effect is not unlike that
of buttermilk and the wash should be
allowed to dry on. It should be used
in the morning in place Of water where
the skin is very bad, and then it may
be wiped off with soft cloth; other
wise it is better to apply at night, lei
it dry, then rub in some cold cream
in the morning use cold water.

FOR MOSQUITO BITES

Salt wet into a paste by adding a
little vinegar, if plastered on the bite
will not only soothe the irritation, but
if not rubbed or scratched will pre-
vent any mark from remaining the next
day. The same remedy is good for
the bee and wasp stings.
IF mosquito bite shows signs Of
swelling and intense irritation, SO that
the swelling spreads over the member
stung, and does not yield to ordinary
home remedies, the case should be tax.
en- at once to a physician for treatment
as the mosquito $ bite has become pois.

which the insect has previously come

stance injecting the. wound afterward
A bad case Of blood poisoning has otter

BUTTONS AND HooKs

It may be observed how general is
the fashion of using button trimmings
midway on skirts, rather than lower
down. Greater effect is gained by three
or four self-colored covered buttons
used at the head Of group OF plants,
nearly knee high, than when placed
within few inches from the hem. But
tens also accent the angles in strap de-
signs favorably.
Women who are annoyed at the ten
dency Of wash skirts to cape in back,
displaying a yawning row Of rusted
hooks. will be wise to adopt the tailor s
suggestions and have their tub skirts
button instead of hooking down the
vent. The tailor is making many linen
skirts this way this year. A row OF
small pearl buttons is quite decorative
and fastens the vent securely past the
possibility Of rusting gaping open.
There is one vital point in princess
skirts, and that is their fastening in the
back. It should be done to such perfec
tion that person looking critically a

FROM ELIZABETH LEE
A. Country Girl,

Dear Miss Lee: want to find out
what way should dress, how I should
fix my hair, etc., I am feet 10 inches
tall, and my age is IL. I have round
face, few freckles, dark blue eyes,
brown hair, very light skin and very
little color in my cheeks. I live in
the country so I don't want anything
too nice. -Pigeon.toed Fanny.
You are evidently fair brunette,
therefore successful colors will be all
shades Of blue, also gray, tan, fawn,
golden brown, pale coral and pale sal
mon pink, pale yellow, cream, old rose,
and deep red. Pale green will not be
very becoming, but dark bottle green
will suit you provided the skin is quite
clear.
Comb your hair back from the face
and loop in braid in the nape Of the
neck, tying with a broad ribbon. In
regard to becoming models. I can only
speak generally, as I do not know your
exact proportions. Shirtwaist frocks
and sailor suits are always in good
taste, and, as a rule, becoming to al
girls, unless too stout, then the loose
sailor styles should be set aside, an6
those on the Russian order chosen. Ma
terials for these frocks will be gingham

taftbTnoon, and pretty checked yoils

REST IN THE KITCHEN

Be sure to have an easy lounge or
chair in the kitchen, where you may
spend the few waiting moments between
acts, as it were, in rest.
IF you cannot afford to buy lounge
especially for that purpose, make one
This is easily done.
Get two long boxes from the dry
goods store; place them end to end and
nail together Make a mattress and I'LL
it with any desired materials. Shredded
shucks are clean and excellent. Over
this drape any kind Of cover to suit
the fancy.
Be sure to get something that can be
washed and ironed. Red and white bed
ticking is, pretty and desirable, and
never fades, and when laundered looks
as good as new. Make a pillow to
match.
Now, while you are watching the
cakes, bread, pies and the like, remem.
Der there is your lounge. Rest. Do not
say you have no time. You have to
wait for your baking to brown. Why
not rest while you waits
You will be surprised how much re-
freshment you will gain even for one
minutes relaxation upon this lmpro,
vised lounging quarter.
