she will be better able to judge than
you whether or not he is the right

Little Odds and Ends.

A collar for wear with a tailored suit

wide piece Of ribbon is gathered one-
half inch from the top to make the
ruching effect, and the second row of
gathers outlines the depth of the collar
and makes a wider ruf1e that encircles
the neck. 1t is necessary to use a very
fine ribbon and a double row of gath
ering stitches.

carefully. making sure hat they are
perfectly dry. Then rub in a lotion
made as follows:
Glycerine, l ounce.
Rosewater, " ounce.
Carbolic acid, 25 drops.
This should be rubbed In until alb
sorbed by the skin and should be used
every time the hands are washed. Re

the condition of your hands and the
nails as well.

proper Way to Bake Beans.

When chilly days come, thoughts GER
tainly revert to foods that contain
starch and fat, and this Is found In
baked beans. The proper way to bake
beans is to first soak navy beans over
night, change the water and boil them
with sufficient pork to season them.
They should be cooked until the skins
burst. While they are cooking add a
fourth of a ~teaspoonful of soda. When
done, score the pork, lay 1t In the bot
tom of a thick crock which has a lid.
Put the beans on top, with a teaspoon
full of molasses. Many do not like the
taste of molasses, and 1t can be
omitted. The beans should bake from
four to five hours. The lid should be
taken off one hour before they are re-
moved from the fire. Many prefer
cooking the beans without the meat,
adding slices of thin bacon when they
are baked. Either method is good.

A Common Ailment.

Blackheads are a form of acne indi-
Gated by little black specks which ap-
pear in the skin, chiefly about the nose,
forehead and chin. Each speck marks
the obstructed outlet of a pore or gland,
and, if pressure is applied on either
side. something having the appearance
of a small white worm will appear.
Upon careful examination this so-called
worm proves to be a mass of matter
which assumes this shape. The tech
meal term for this is comedo, and the
black at the top is, shocking as it may
seem, simply dirt.
Obviously there is but one way of
getting rid of blackheads, and that is
by forcing them out of the pores. But
if they are removed before the skin is
properly prepared for the process the
patient ruptures the delicate tissue,
causing either a scar or the enlarge
ment of the opening, which immedi-
ately fills up again, each time In
creasing in size.
Blackheads may not only be removed
without leaving a scar, but thu patient
need never be troubled with them again
If the following directions are carefully
followed:
For three weeks apply a good a
cream every night before retiring. and
let the cream remain on the face during
the night. In the morning wash 1t off
with water as hot as may be borne, and
then rinse the face thoroughly in cool
water.

GIVES NEW YORK THE LAURELs.

I'm my opinion the women of New
York dress the better. In the first
place, New York is a greater sea-
port than Newark, therefore goods
are purchased much cheaper.
I'm the second place. most of the
wealthiest people in the country
reside in New York, hence the rea-
son why New Workers dress better
than Newark women, although
most of the Newark women dress
more sensibly and not as gaudily
as New York women.
