Under the latter conditions she might
work off the harmfulness of her indulg-
ence. but in the close air of a store or
office this is impossible.
So, if she has rough spots on her
face, there is one simple remedy-to cut
down the supply of sweets and greasy
foods. An excess of fats or graves Is
also harmful.
Careful treatment of the skin will
hasten in restoring it to smoothness,
and on the manner of opening the small
pimple depends the texture OF the hesh;
for If hastily and improperly done, large
pores inevitably ensue, but this Is quite
Unnecessary, as the operation consists
of lancing with a fine cambria needle
preferably one that is new If 1t has
been used before for any purpose IL

it into boiling water or in alcohol ana
lighting it in order to burn impurities
The eruption should always be soaked
for at least five minutes to soften the
skin. Holding hot wet cloths against
it will accomplish the purpose. Their
the spot may be opened and dressed
gently, but not hard, to extract the Sc
erection.
Immediately afterward it may be
touched with a paste made from tYe-
eighths of an ounce each of lanollne
almond oil and sulphur precipitate

of zinc and hold dram of violet eX-
tract To mix, the sulphur and zinc are
combined with the oil in SMOOTH
paste, the lanoline melted in cup SCI
into hot water and poured into the oil
as the former softens. The extract goes
in last. This is applied at night To
each pimple.
Less complicated to make is lotion
of one-half dram each of precipltate
of sulphur tincture of camphor anc
glycerine with two ounces of rose wa
ter. The sulphur and glycerine are
smoothly combined before thinning
slowly with the other liquids. This Is
used like the first prescription.
A third. more like cream, may DC
rubbed over the face at any time, and
is useful when there is a tendency to
pimples, for, taken in time, they may
be checked The formula is gram OF

Under no circumstances should
pimple ever be opened without putting
on something afterward to contract the
hole which has been made. Pure alco-
hol. tincture of camphor or cologne wa

these astringents when the pastes OF

LET IN THE FRESH AIR

There is one kind of air and one
kind only that is fit to breathe, and
that is the air of out-of-doors How
many hours of the day do you live in
the air of out-of-doors, within sight of
the open landscape?
When you rise in the morning, do you
forget that winter is past? Do you
close your windows? Why not put on
a warm bath robe instead? After a
cool plunge or spray, you will be so
warm that you will not know that the
windows are open.
How about the bath room? Is it as
much like the woods as possible; as
much as possible like the PLACE where
you take your plunge when out camp
ing?
windows to see what parts let in views
of nice things without, and may be left
uncovered without admitting the gaze
of outsiders? If you have not, you
have forgotten the first law of house
decoration.
Fortunately, it is usually the top of
the window that cuts the finest views
out of the landscapes, and it is the top
also which can most frequently be left
uncovered. 1t may let in not more than
bit of sky, but over that bit of sky a
pink or white cloud may float, and then
YOU will get the out-of-door feeling.
At what hour do you sit down to read
or sew? Eleven O'clock? How about
keeping all the windows of the house
open till that hour? Are you not NOV
ing about and busting and making
beds, and do you feel any chilliness
which a jacket or a sweater might not
remove?
When YOU start out to do your mar

IN HE desire to be beautiful is inborn
in every woman, and if, as mod
= ern authorities assert, beauty is
merely a matter of cultivation, and
each of us may become her own fairy
princess, then we have only our own
lack of energy to thank if that desire
is not gratified. However true thai
may be individually, it is true general
IT, Beauty is a mighty power, but 1t Is
not alone expressible in a pretty race
In fact, in these days when dress is
such a valuable asset it has become an
axiom that "a graceful figure and a
charming manner are more to be de-
sired than great beauty of race, With
out these attributes
While it is not possible or desirable
to change ones anatomy, physical eX-
ercise and a clever corsetiere are won
der workers in the development of q
good figure. The old idea that corsets
are injurious has been eliminated by
the new models, which are hclptu
rather than otherwise when properly
fitted. AS in most other matters per-
tanning to dress, the stout woman has
all the trials to contend with and per-
mits herself to suffer untold discom-
fort in an effort to melt that too, toe
solid flesh.
The newest medium is a corset OF
rubber banding fitted with Whalebon
which, when adjusted, correctly QlstIlp-
1ltes the flesh uniformly and holds it IN
place without undue pressure, because
it gives" to the figure 1t Is a very
unwise woman who, valuing a good ng-
ure, accepts a ready made corset. Bet
ter a little economy in another direc-
ton and invoke the services of a really
good corsetere. A little thought ano
observation is convincing that sartoria
success is dependent upon a good fig
ure. and that good figure, in turn, is
dependent, not upon nature, but upon
the corsetiere.
Facial eruptions may be caused either
by indigestion or poor condition o.
the blood, but the truth is that indis-
criminate eating of sweets is more OTTER
responsible for a blotchy complexion
than either condition previously men
toned. A girl cannot eat pastries fol

day and indulge in ice cream sodas

neat packages ready for market.
This is a garden enterprise that will
pay the summer through, and aside
from the first work of planting the
bushes would require little care or eff

products, sage leaves are not perish

will keep indefinitely, or until you tind

THE BRoKAW LIBELs.

CHICAGO, May 6.-The right of
telegraph transmit messages which
might reflect on the character OF a
person is to be tested in a damage
suit which has been brought by Mrs.
Mary Blair Brokaw, wife OF w.
Gould Brokaw against the Western
Union Telegraph Company. The suit
for divorce instituted by Mrs. Bro
kaw sometime ago contains sensa-
tional allegations concerning the
young millionaire's treatment OF her
both in private and in public. She
now alleges that her husband sent
many messages not only to her, but
to her relatives and friends derogat'
ory to her character. When the tele'
graph company was informed Of the
suit it dug up from the files several
hundred messages which had been
sent by Mr.. Brokaw. These tele-
grams, Mrs. Brokaw contends must
constitute libels on her not only be-
cause Of their contents, but because
the company on accepting them and
transmitting their contents through
its agents, disseminated the libel. The
telegraph company declared that ii
was not worried by the suit, as no
one had yet been able to recover on
similar allegations.

experiments in connection with the

planes, provided they can be obtained
without much cost to the division,
Congress failed to appropriate any
thing for aeronautical work by the
signal corps and the plans for the
test are therefore indefinite, II IS
generally conceded that the Wright
brothers will be able to fulfill all the
conditions OF their contract with the

According to statements BY

According to statements by the
attorneys Cunningham was l7'year'
old when the Civil War started. He
was unable to enlist but was so eager
to get into the fighting that he fol-
lowed the one hundred and sixth
regiment OF New York volunteers to
the front While not regularly enroll
led, he actually fought with the regi'
ment and also saw some service as
follower Of other commands
Returning home at the end Of the
war, young Cunningham told Of his
experience in battle. In time he be-
came a Grand Army man and year
after year on Memorial Day marched
with the veterans IN Brooklyn. Sew.
eral years ago Cunningham was cleo
ted commander OF Devin Post.
