TRAINING THE NAILS

Every woman can be her own mani

proper shape. which should be trihe
more pointed at the end than the
moon at the base-like an almond.
This IS done by a good file which is
smooth on one side so there may be no
danger Of roughening the flesh under
the nail.
After this is done the tips OF the
fingers are soaked in tepid water soften
ed with shaved soap and a teaspoonful
Of borax powder. Then a cut lime or
lemon Is gently rubbed round the nail
until the cuticle Is soft. Again the
fingers are washed, and, with a small

FIuttering Among the Cups.

"O BE able to conceal the de-
fects and bring out the good
points Of the hand is an art
which women are always striv-
ing 10 cultivate. The fingers must be
trained TO show of their beauty. Even
mOre-they must be shown how TO
behave. The iII-behaved hand is always
I'll at ease without showing the good
points which the well-behaved hand has
been taught to show.
Some hands have defects which can
be hidden. I have In mind a woman
whose hands are too broad for their
length. They have the pudgy look
which gives ore an idea Of common
placeness and poor ancestry. Now, this
woman. who happens TO have the
bluest Of blood in her veins. is very SEN
sitive about her ordinary-Iooking hands.
They are positively plebelan,' she con-
hded 10 me one day. They may look

then placed her in front OF a mir
ror 20 convince her by experiment.

placed It IN such a position that the

anything to go by. 1t certainly gave
a classic length 10 her forefnger and

some thought and study this woman

Women neglect their hands and

OLD HANDS AND YOUNG

OLD HANDS AND YOUNG
Pink palms are the sign OF youth. The
girl OF IS has them. and the woman
who wants 10 keep her hands from
growing old should study methods for
making them pink. The French woman
rouges them lavishly with a kind OF
rouge that does not come of on her
handkerchief Rubbing them With
rough Turkish towel is a safe method.
A little cologne rubbed on the palms
will make most hands pink and per-
fume them at the same time A few
drops Of oil Of jasmine diluted with aIco-
hol and delicately massaged into the
wrists will scent ones sleeves and make
the arms more supple.
The women Of Europe display their
hands TO much better advantage than
do the Americans. They express with
their hands what the American women
do with their eyes
The ancients had the harp. which al
most seems designed 10 display the
hands. The Spanish woman has the fan.
with which she gives expression to her
moods. She also has the mantiIla. by
means Of which sne shows of the white
ness Of her hands. The French woman
has her wonderful lace handkerchief
The beautiful women Of Venice are
never without their flowers Along the
Mediterranean women make free use Of
gestures, the graceful movements OF the
hands. and in this descriptive panto-
mime express their every mood.
In far-away Egypt there is the coffee
cup, dainty and delicate. holding but a
spoonful. but giving the Egyptian belle
an opportunity 10 display her hands.
Some appreciatlve man described his
hostess hands as white doves fiuttering
around the coffee cups. Does this sound
like an American speech?

The pitcher who is pitching good

puts three over without making any
effort to meet them and walk back to
the bench. The fans expect the pitch
or to do as much in the way of hitting
as any one else on the team. He must
help himself.
The argument has been that pitch
er wastes too much energy In running
bases and must make no effort to hit
the ball. Therefore hitting became a
lost art in the pitchers class.
They are regaining the art, and all
of them seem to be making an effort
to meet the ball.

Edgar Willett of Detroit, two pitchers
who furnished an Illustration recently.
In the second game of the last series
that the Tigers and the Maps played
in Detroit Donovan put one over the
plate for Joss. The big fellow swung
with all the strength he possessed, and
the ball bounded past O'Leary along

tended himself he could have made
