IN THE BATHROOM.

In the bathroom or on the toilet table
salt is invaluable. There is no better
gargle for throat and nose than weak
salt water, and it has been known to
cure cases of chronic catarrh.
Weak salt water is also a good eye
wash. It can be used either hot or cold.
Battle freely or wash out the eyes with
an eye cup.
Pure, strong salt, thoroughly moist,
ened, makes an excellent tooth wash. re-
moves tartar and is good for the gums.
If one is fatigued, there is nothing
more restful than rub with hot or
cold salt water. For this. sea salt is
preferable. 1t can be bought by the
pound and should be dissolved a short
time before the bath is ready.
Incidentally the full value of salt is
only coming to be understood. A half
teaspoonful of salt in a cup of hot
water, taken night and morning. is
excellent for digestion.
In cases of overeating or acute indi-
gestion pinch of salt dissolved on the
tongue will often give relief. One
young woman with valvular heart
trouble warded off attacks BY drinking
hot salt water at the first signs of OPP
preston.
In cases of extreme exhaustion glass
of hot salt water acts as quick restor.
alive. If one is subject to nightmare, a
cup of salt water, taken before retiring,
will often ward off an attack.
Physicians often prolong life by in
iections of saline solutions. and skilled
hair dressers recommend its use to rub
the scalp where it needs strengthening.

Simple Ways Of Making
the Hands Graceful

| jy. Curving the little one sometimes
verges on the grotesque when it is done
to extremes. A woman should always
try to use her hands easily and without
stiffness. Beyond that she must let the
movement be spontaneous
When the hands are being loosely
held in the lap the fingers take on a
pose of their own which is not always
pretty. They curve as the muscles re.
lax, but the bend is too apt to come
from the middle joint instead of from
the knuckles, the two forefngers being
left straight and the others held against
the palms. A hand in repose in this
fashion appears attractive.
1t is not we'll to grasp an ordinary
object with all four fingers and thumb.
for again awkwardness will result. I'm
less the article to be raised is really
heavy, it should be taken by the thumb
and fore and middle fingers. The two
last are allowed to bend under slightly,
as they will of their own accord This
gives far narrower effect, and is much
more attractive.
The texture of the skin has much
to do with making a hand appear pref

and wiping, and is wiped off a moment
afterward. At night cold cream should
be rubbed over the nails.

RULES FOR DYsPEpTTCs.

The following general rules are ap-
plicable to all eases of dyspepsia and
indigestion:
l. Eat slowly, masticate thoroughly.
2. Drink fluid an hour before or two
or three hours after meals, rather than
with food.
8. Eat at regular hours
4. If greatly fatigued, lie down and
rest quietly before and after luncheon
and dinner or supper.
5. Avoid as far as possible taking
business worries or professional cares
TO the table.
g. Take systematic exercise in the
open air. Bicycle and horseback riding
are the best forms.
Z. On rising, cold sponging and
vigorous friction of the body are ad-
visable
; s. The bowls should be kept open
by laxative food and fluids rather
than by medicines.
g. Avoid too much variety at one
meal. Take meats and vegetables at
separate meals.--W. Gilman Thompson,
NJ D., in Practical Dietetics.

IN THE LAUNDRY.

Salt added to the water in which deli.
cate colored fabrics are soaked will pre-
vent the color from running.
/ To give your starched clothes fine
glaze, add a teaspoonful of salt and one
of pulverized white soap to every two
cupfuls of starch.
Should irons be soi1ed, nothing viii
clean them more quickly than rubbing
with salt and brown paper.
Knitted goods will look much better
if rinsed in salt water, and if salt is
added to the last rinsing water in cold
weather it will keep the clothes from
freezing on the line.
To remove mildew or rust spots, put
wet salt on it and let it stand for a
time. Then apply thick paste of
French chalk and water.
Ink can be removed, when not too
old. by rubbing the spots with lemon
and salt and standing in the hot sun.
Wicker clothes hampers and all wick
er baskets or furniture are kept much
nicer by washing occasionally with a
strong solution of salt water. Set out
doors in the sun and air to dry.

IN THE KITCHEN.

In the kitchen, the clever cook never
forgets the use of salt, not only in her
cooking, but as an aid to easy pot and
pan washing.
Dishes that have been spotted by put
ting in the oven to heat can easily be
cleaned by rubbing with wet salt. 1t
is also good to remove spots from agate
ware ana to cut the grease in skiliets.
Silver that has been blackened by
eggs can be quickly freed Of spots by
rubbing with wet salt. On the other
hand, salt must not be allowed to stand
in salt cellars between meals, or it will
blacken the silver.
In scrubbing the kitchen floor, it will
look better if it is done with hot salt
water. In sweeping, also, salt keeps
down the dust and makes a carpet look
much fresher.
Not every one knows that fudge pea
nut taffy and cakes are improved by the
addition of a liberal pinch of salt.
Salt water is the best possible test
for eggs. A fresh egg will sink at once,
while one that is stale will show signs
of coming to the surface.
1T salt IS sprtnkled over the c0a1s II
will make the fame in better condition
for broiling.
Another use to which salt on a fire
can be put is to recurl ostrich feathers
which are held over it.
One use for salt that is little known
is to preserve the length of gas nantes.
When they become blackened, turn the
light low, sprinkle with salt, turn the
light full on again for minute or two
and repeat until the mantle is clean.

With judicious care and management
of the fingers, etc., hands that are not
pretty may sometimes be made to APP
pear 80, for this effect is usually given
by long and tapering fingers and gen
eral grace Every woman knows it,
though few are born with it.
Close observation of the proper way
to use the hands will show that the
most grace is gained by bending from
the knuckles instead of the finger joints
when necessary to use the fingers. This
is easily illustrated by picking up a
book. A person who has broad,
square hand and short fingers naturally
takes the volume between the tips,
bending at the middle joint to make
the contact. If the bend comes from
the knuckles it necessitates taking the
object between the cushions of the i'm
ger ends instead of the tips, so a
straight finger line, giving an effect OF
length, is secured.
You hear much of "daintily taking
an object with the finger tips. In
point of fact, it is not with the tips,
but with the ends that any article
should be lifted, and by the ends is
meant that soft section between the
top joint and the tip. It is an odd fact
that. long fingered persons, who could
afford to bend their fingers, do not, in,
variably using the ends. 1t is this
attitude which emphasizes the natural
grace of the hands.
Alterations with the fingers are alb
surd and at no time can be called love-

TEMPE ELECTRIC LINE

The Many Advantages Offered by a Route East From Phoenix

The Center Street Bridge Publicity committee seem to be somewhat dis turbed and annoyed over the fact that the people of Tempe have aI- ways been and are now in favor of an electric line. They accuse the Tempe people of coming in at the eleventh hour. In attempting to show the voters that Tempe is in favor of a suburban electric car line, l can not see how Tempe is intruding on any of their personal or private rights I do not know what law. except the law of piracy, would give the people of- Tempe or anyone an exclusive franchise or a patent to- object to anyone building subur- ban lines or electric lines through any part of the country that can be agreed upon by the people most in

SUCCESSFUL YEARS WORK

The first closing exercises of the fTefifpe Union High school were held yesterday afternoon and were wit messed by vast congregation of parents, relatives and friends of the students. Some days since the par titions of the Curry hall were re- moved, to better facilitate the work of the closing program and the big hall was comfortably filled. The graduating classes of the Public and Normal Training schools at tended in a body
 The hall was appropriately decOrat- ed for the occasion, as was the spacious stage erected especially for the program.
