PROPER CARE OF THE NAILS
Adequate Attention Necessary for
the Woman Who Would Have
Her Hands Beautiful.

- RETTY nails are considered a
great beauty. At the base there
should be a white crescent, and
the nails should be as rosy as
the dawn. Beautiful nails are
compared by the poets to onyx, and,
in fact, in Greek onyx means nail Ac-
cording to the NEUROLOGICAL legend:
zone day Love, finding Venus asleep,
cut he.. nails with the iron point of
his arrow and flew off. The clippings
fell on the sands of the shore, and as
nothing which comes from the body of
an immortal can perish, the Fates
carefully gathered them up and
changed them into the quasi-precious
stones which are called onyx"
The "art of manicuring' was origi-
mated by Stitts, who was Louis Phil
ippe's pedicure. His descendants are
still famous in France, and the Sits
method, which totally condemns the
use of steel either under or around
the nail, undoubtedly is the proper
and scientific one. Madame Sits says:
can orangewood stick with a little
French amadine will keep the nails
perfectly smooth and clean under
meath. Why roughen them with a
piece of sharp steel or thicken them
WIN an aclu AHO DIS lOT cutting dHu
decorating the cuticle around the out
side of the nail, why, that was intend
ed by nature as a selvage Qisiere),
and if you cut it, you make it ragged
just as you would the selvage on a bit
of cloth. AS well cut the border of
the eyelid or ear"
The nails should be cut in a curve
which follows the shape of the end of
the finger. The surface of the nails
should also be polished.
One hour a week spent in caring
for the nails is sufficient to keep them
in good order, if they are rubbed and
cleaned carefully each day.

1t and Powered ribbons are

Fancy gilt and Powered ribbons are
used as daily bag accessories.
The small three-cornered CONT
mental hat, or tricorne, revives among
the straw shapes for spring.
1t is pretty fashion to add frill
of soft satin or very closely plated
chiffon to the lower edge of fur muffs.
The soft Roman satins, woven with
wool backs, are both lovely and eco
nomical, as they wear exceedingly
well and need but little trimming.
The milliners are introducing flow
ers made of chiffon and in a more
novel manner, though it is really quite
old, composed of beads strung on fine
wire.
Again flowers appear massed under
tie brim of the hat-a fashion not
seen for some time. The brim is not
turned up, but the flowers appear as
if ready to fall off the under side.
Jet is 1avishly used in millinery.
Tie weight of these hats would be
uncomfortable laden with ordinary jet,
but the new jet is very light of
weight. Large. heavylooking caboch-
ons of it weigh no more than a
feather.

Persian Effects.

Persian effects are still good, and
are conspicuous among the best mem
bers of trimming collections. One of
the most charming classes of trim
mings. is the one in which the bead
work plays large part In these
trimmings fine silk braids of exquisite
weave furnish outlines and the beads
a solid filling for the centers of mo-
tives and for borders. The love1iest
green's. blues, rose colors, etc, are
worked out in these braids and beads.
The solid beadwork of to-day is not
embroidered on a background, like In
dian work, but is made in woven and
strung patterns, the result of lighter
effects.

ATTEND TO BURNS AT ONCE

beauty.
A young girl dropped some hot
fudge on the forefnger of her right
hand. 1t did not pain very much,
and after the preliminary scream lit
tie attention was paid to it.
The blister that was raised was
allowed to break rather than be
opened carefully with an antiseptic
needle; poison got into it, the finger
became infected and eventually had to
be removed below the second joint
Exclude air from any burn, however
slight This can be done in several
ways. If no other remedy is at hand
common kitchen soap applied in a
thick paste helps remove pain.
Wrapping the burned place in a rag
wet in baking soda or keeping it moist
with witch hazel will quickly give
relief, even to rather severe burns. A
good proportion for the former is to
use heaping tablespoonful of the
soda to pint of water.
For deeper burns, that are yet not
serious enough to call in a DOCTOR
use oils. Carron oil is possibly the
one most easily secured; indeed, a
bottle of it should be kept convenient
in the kitchen, where burnt fingers are
prevalent.
This carron oil is nothing but equal
parts of lime water and Hnseed oil,
but it is most soothing and healing
in its effect
Do not neglect a burn as soon as
the first sting is passed. Should there
be the least sign of Inflammation or
of pus accommodating call in a doctor
at once.
In case of bad burns it is sometimes
necessary to wrap the victim in cotton
to keep out all air. In such case the
doctor would naturally be in charge.

Satins are to retain their prestige
throughout the autumn and winter,
and manufacturers are launching sew
eral new varieties of this popular fab
ric. Satin directoire, marvelously soft
and supple, is one of the best of these
variations upon the satin theme, and
is particularly designed to meet the
demands of the clinging directoire
models. This modish costume has a
princess skirt of prune color cloth
with satin casaque coat drawn slightly
across front. AS will be noticed, the
sleeves are cut in one with fronts and
backs. The braiding is done in self
tone soutache and the buttons and
grelots are of black passementerie.

BAD MORAL CONDITIONS.

Elder 3. +. Grant delivered an earn
est address in the Pioneer Stake hall on
Monday evening. in which he depicted
the moral conditions as at present pre-
vaillng in this city. He told the story
of the "stockade." that WAS closed
through the persistent efforts OF the
sheriff's Office. with the aid Of private
citizens, but he expressed the fear that
the place will DO opened again If, he
said. the promoters of that institution
have reason TO believe that the people
are discouraged and that they have tho
administration behind them. they will
surely reopen the shops where human
vice Is turned into money. They will
advertise Salt Lake City all over the
freely spent. and where the government
is on their side. Hundreds will flock to
the City. Then cards will be distrib-
uted in tho City, and in every country
settlement north and SOUTH inviting
our young men and boys to come. And
many OF them will fall into the trap.
The speaker asserted that the chief
promoter of that iniquity has SO many
men In her clutches now that she can
control, to a large extent, City elections.
Her victims, he said. are afraid of her.
He told Of many attempts at entrap-
ping men prominent In reform move
ments. and he believed that many had
been caught, and although innocent
of wrongdoing. did not care to be pub
licly exposed.
The speaker urged the people not to
lay down their arms in this warfare
against fearful evil. He thought the
citizens ought to rise as one man, and
demand that the officers do their full
duty. or else that impeachment pro-
ceedings be brought against them.
We are now in about the same posi-
ton as we were when the so-called
Liberal rule became the curse OF the
City. At that time. too, q flood of
iniquity was let loose upon the people
here. The streets swarmed with deni-
zens OF the underworld. Gambling hells
flourished. Holdups became so numer-
GUS that citizens lived In constant ter
ror. Several murders were committed
in the streets. The citizens had to form
a special corps of night watchmen to
patrol the blocks and look after their
safety. Finally the consciences of the
Christian men and women who by their

OF the article would drive the man into
obScurity, circumstance which would
be little enough recompenSe to the
friend who was in danger of being in
jured.
We'll, it was only after very long and
very earnest efforts on the part of Mr
Gould's confldants that they were at all
able TO SwerVe him in the slightest
from the plan of action that he had
mapped out I'm the heat of his anger
But, t1nally, Mr.. Gould was reluctantly
dissuaded from making the printed at
TACK by the statement of one of his
friends that, while the article would
proDaoly drive the man into obScurity,
as MI. Gould hoped it would, 1t also
would probably cause the public to feel
great resentment in the end to the
prlnger of such unwelcome news, In
which anfmuS would unquestlonably
be discerned
That was something which Mr..
Gould had not taken into account. Nor
mad he thought what the effect of such
an hrtlcle might be on his financial
schemes. His sole idea was to help a
good friend who. he believed, was fac
ing most serious danger Later on,
when his anger had cooled. and he
had regained his usual control OF his
temper. no admitted that he probably
would have done the wrong thing had
he persisted in having the article pub
hshed: and from that time on TO
the day of his death. he WAS more than
ever convinced OF tho great danger
there Is in doing anything in the heat
OF passion"

described as a famous Mormon
preacher" although 1t is safe to
say that nobody in these parts
ever heard of his fame. He is
also said to have come west in 1S49
with the famous prophets band -

tlon naturally arises whether the au

does not confound the alleged counter
feiter with the famous villain of the
Mountain Meadow drama, who paid
the penalty for his crime, over thirty
years ago. That Is, generally, as near
as antl-"Mormon" writer's ever come
to the truth.
The author OF the item claims that
the alleged counterfeiter, now Ii years
old, was once a member of ''the Aveng-
ing Angels" and the remark is pertinent
that he must have entered 1t the same
year he was born, for that organiza-
ton, also known as "Danites." was
formed I'm 1898 and died an ignomnious
death shortly after Its birth. Alto
sether the counterfeiter must have
been a remarkable child.
The reference TO the "Danites" re-
minds us that strange mIsunder-
standing exists in the minds of nom
"Mormons' regarding that band. They
generally suppose II to have been d

Great as were his financial conuuests
probably the greatest of all of Jay
GouldS victories was that which he
gained over his temper" said an old
friend OF the family to me at the time
of the little wizards death in 1892.
I'm its natural state his was a most
unruly temper. Unmastered, II would
undoubtedly have led him into all sorts
of embarrassing situations and to my
mind. seriously imperiled the success
OF his aims in life. But more than once

certainly knows-that Mr., Gould was
the most even tempered man with
whom he had ever been brought into
business association.
Indeed go complete was Mr.. Gould's
mastery over his temper that / can
recall only one time when 1t ever got
the better OF him. Then, curiously
enough, Mr.. Gould got boiling mad In
behalf OF good friend and business
associate, and had not some of his
closest friends been able finally to re-
strain him, there is no telling to what
lengths he would have let his fury
carry him.

ears report that to this his friend

Conduct of this sort was the one thing
that Mr. Gould could not forget or

the alleged disloyaI friend out of rep
