Health and Beauty Hints.

After using boraX and rosewater for
the removal of tan and freckles, a lit.
tie cold cream should be applied, as
borax makes the skin dry.
Large pores on the nose and chin
may be reduced by applying several
times a day a lotion made of lemon
juice and glycerin, or one of alum and
water.
Lemon strip, made by baking a
lemon twenty minutes and then squeez-
ing the juice upon half a cupful of
sugar. is excellent for hoarseness and
to break up cold.
A cure for hiccoughs is to inhale as
much air as the lungs will hold and
retain it as long as possible. If one
inhalation Is not enough repeat as often
as necessary.
Should anything get into the eyes one
drop of sweet oil should be dropped in
the corner of it, but if it be mortar or
lime battle with a weak solution of
water and vinegar.
A simple mixture of equal parts of
lemon juice, honey and cologne is an
excellent lotion for whitening the hands
if they are abnormally red. Apply at
night, rubbing we'll into the skin.
For an ordinary sore throat, with
loss of voice or huskiness, dip folded
handkerchief in cold water. Encircle

cover it with several folds of old fan
mel. One nights application is usually
sufficient to relieve slight cases.

A rich cream voile skirt was made
attractive by q neat trimming around
the bottom. The skirt was plated in
box plaits about two and one-half
inches wide around the entire breadth.
The bottom of each plat was trimmed
with a narrow pyramid of lace, possibly
seven inches long. The lace was as
wide as each plait. gradually tapering
to point. The effect for a dress skirt
was becoming indeed.
Ready-made riding clothes are now

semi-fitting and Norfolk coat styles and
in both cross saddle and side saddle

FOR MARCEL WAVING succeed IN making
a mass of burned or tangled tresses not
to be likened. for a moment, to the
beautiful undulation of the oceans
waves, but rather to knotted bunch
of seaweed thrown up on the shore.
The inventor has come to her relief
in the presentation of tool by which,
50 it is claimed, she can herself give
her hair a marcel which will put the
professional dresser to blush. At first
glance this device looks like something
which might be found in the doctors
kit, but it's mission is entirely harmless
and it can do no more danger than
possibly burn a lock Of hair if handled
too carelessly. The teeth shown are
sliding in a groove, and after the thing
has been heated the hair Is wound
around one of the arms Of the tongs,
and when the hair has been drawn
tight, by pulling the teeth along the
slot, the other jaw OF the tong is
closed down and it's heat gives the
hair the desired curl.

The fine art of dressing is to wear
good clothes and be unmindful CT them.
To be able to be "unmindful," one must
feel that all her clothes are in order
and becoming. Then, and then only,
can she forget her appearance entirely.
One idea to be borne in mind in choos-
ing hat for the hot weather is that it
shall be some protection to the face. It
really is more sensible to keep what
complexion you have than to have to
bother with pastes and washes. The
absurdly small and tilted hats worn
early in the season are useless for pro-
tecting the face. The sailor is still a
favorite and is being made in lighter
and daintier straws. While it con-
tinues to be trimmed simply. with a
band and bow, it is brought up to date
by bandeau covered with ribbon bows,
worn in the back under the rim. A
shade hat made of rustic, soft green
straws, and trimmed with wild flowers,
is most attractive

RUSH OF HINDoos INTO CANADA.
A Curious Movement Within the
British Empire.

4 Curious Movement Within the
British Empire.
A novel but energetic immigration
into the Dominion of Canada is in
progress, which appears likely to as
sumo large proportions, says the Pail
Nall Gazette. It is difficult to think
of Hindoos and of British Columbia in
the same moment, but coolies are go
ing from India to that western section
of Canada in steadily increasing num-
bers. This strange movement of pop
ulation appears to bring the incongru-
Gus into juXtaposition, for between
the newcomers and the colonials of
Dominion, there is absolutely no af
fnity or sympathy. Already the drift
from India to western Canada is ex-
citing symptoms of dissatisfaction.
Some of the colonial critics say that
the incoming Hidoos are not desirable
immigrants, or they are physically
weak and therefore not stalwart
enough for life in a land with climatic
conditions altogether unlike those of
India Few of these coolies are skill
full in any of the arts of life, and the
majority are inclined to Incidence.
Canada gives abundant elbow room
for new settlers in every province, but
these Hindoos persist in budding in
overcrowded tenements, to the intense
annoyment of the citizens of the town.
ships in British Columbia. They also
are greatly hampered by the caste sys-
TEN that they bring with them. Such
is the state of things, according to the
critics in British Columbia and in the
region of the Selkirks.
These new settlers, however, are not
without advocates. BY some Of the
Canadians here and there they have
been welcomed as valuable auxiliaries
in certain spheres of industry. 1t is
asserted that a large proportion Of
them are stalwart, hardy, thrifty and
ambitious, and are all sober and alb
stemious; while, as nearly all are Of
the lower classes of Hindoos, they are
in a very great measure free from the
bondage Of caste, or will soon break
the shackles. 1t is claimed that some
superficial observers have INDUCED in
too hasty a generalization of their I'M
favorable descriptions of the Hindoo
immigrants. 1t is also recognized that
the Hindoo is a British subject, and in
going from India to British Columbia
he is simply shifting from one part of
the empire to another. Canadians,
therefore, we'll understood how awk-
ward it would be to apply prohibitory
measures, even though some of the
colonists might consider the immi-
grants undesirable.

Care of the Hands,

For well-kept hands the nails are of
prime Importance. In the first place
they must be properly cut, following
the outline of the finger tips.
When the hands are washed the skin
at the base should be gently pushed
back with a towel or orange stick, so
as to disclose the little white half
moon.
When the hand is held up before the
face with the palm inward, tiny rim
of nail should show around the end of
each finger. The corners should be cut
round but not too closely, or they will
become sore.
Sharp instruments should be kept
from the nails, and cutting away the
loose skin should be avoided, as it is
apt to produce soreness. Lemon juice
is useful in taking off stains. Should
they look dull or rough, little vase
line or beeswax may be rubbed On and
then polished with a soft cloth.

Use Hats as Table Ornaments.

What's the use of harping on the ex-
trayagance of women when new and
attractive millinery confronts their Wis
ion? One might as well take it philo-
sophically and feel the worst is yet to
come. 1t is said, in fact, that not
only will hats be used in their proper
place, but the tyrant behind the bon
net counter is handing them out to
serve as decorations and to masquerade
as table ornaments. At a luncheon the
other day the center Of the table bore
a fat hat of Tuscan straw as large
as the great hat through which Mrs.
John Jacob Astor talked to the King at
Ascot, and which made society forget
the Derby debacle. The tabled hat was
pink and was tied with ribbon in a way
that made it resemble basket. A bowl
of water stood in the upturned crown
and was filed with Lawson pinks.
From it green vines trailed gracefully
over the table.

Wolf Teeth.

The old superstition about wolf
teeth in horses is still considered with
a good deal of respect by some people.
Many horse troubles are attributed to
these supernumerary teeth, when in re
ality the trouble comes from another
source. Competent authorities say that
wolf teeth never cause eye troubles
or blindness and do no harm unless
they injure the cheek or the tongue
by being out of position so that the
bit hurts the mouth. Shedding of the
molar teeth sometimes causes sore
eyes, which is believed to be wolf
teeth. We do not believe in the bar
barous custom of punching out the
teeth unless a competent veterinarian

costume be kept to its snowy effect,
but the shoes will not be stained, which
was frequently the case with the dark

dirt from the other shoes they were
worn with, and promptly smudged the
white or delicately tinted ties they
were used to cover in emergencies.

goes on mad shopping jamborees, the
frenzied one bent on the instant
achievement OF clothes and hats, tie
person who goes in for dogs, the one
who dotes on birds. the embroidery
fend-each and every specimen of the
variety of the universal feminine who
does not believe in doing things by
halves. She is so determined not TO
do it by half that she does it about
twice too much; she goes to the other
extreme and oversteps the bounds of
common sense.
The American woman is intense, she
is generally in hurry, she is thorough
life is earnest, and Herewith she pro-
ceeds to make it hectic; if she is in
society she means to be up at the head
of the procession: if she is wife and
mother she too often kills herself serv-
ing her husband and children and TAX
ing care of her home; if she is on the
intellectual order of women she over
studies and reads herself into nervous
prostration; If she is an ambitious bust
ness woman she is so dead in earnest
that half the time she moves around
in a sort of financial trance.
She certainly does need narcotic,
something which would force her to re-
lax, to take time to largh and indulge
now and then in a sweet and whole
some idleness; SO she would be a saner
and a less nervous woman. and conse-
Quently a more healthy one. But this
narcotic has not as yet been discovered |;
only when she comes to the end of her
strength does she give up, and then this
giving up is a complete prostration.
The sanitariums and health resorts,
both here and in Europe, are largely
recruited from this class.-EXchange.
