 TRY OIL ON ROADS

Montgomery county Is preparing to experiment with crude oil on her roads to prevent dust and to harden the sur face This Is an experiment which has worked we'll in some Mississippi coun- ties, but has never been tried thor oughly in Alabama.
 The proposition was put to the Mont eomery board of revenue and they de- cided to try it on a mile of road. and if it is successful they will oil all the principal mecadam roads of the county.
 Jefferson will get the advantage or this experiment, and will be able to profit by Montgomery's experience. The practice Is general around Kansas City, Mo. where the roads are never dusty and are always smooth. The oiiing has to be done once year.

Health and Beauty.

A lotion for chapped hands is made of tincture benzoin, 80 drops; glycerin, 2 ounces; rose water, 3 ounces Rub this preparation on the hands at night Distilled water after having been ex- posed to the air Is one of the most salu- brious of drinks. It's daily use in meas ured quantities is helpful in cases of dys- functions of the body.
 If the girls will wear their coats open over their fine waists. then they should wear beneath the waist chest protector of chamois in lace-trimmed cover which will not show through. The silk ateen and woolen crocheted ones are worn by many.
 The juice of fresh orange rubbed Into the face and hands. followed with a good soap and water bath, will cleanse the face and clear the muddy winter complexion. The orange juice contains a certain percentage of saccharine and this sweet will smooth the face.
 Tea, coffee, and stmulants in any form are not for the red nosed, for hot liquids send the blood circulating with a rush and much of it will settle in the face. When going into cold air a woman so afflicted should wear thick veil and when indoors she must not sit near 0 fire or other hot place. She must do what she can to prevent local conditions from bringing the blood to the surface. In washing tho face only tepid water may be used.
 The eyebrows should receive as much attention as any other part of the body. With a little cold cream on the finger tips rub the eyebrows gently, 80 as to re- move any possible dandruff, since they often have a little in them. Then wash them with a solution made of @ little water and little alcohol. First brush them straight up toward the hair and then straight down, and the line will be thin and well shaped. If constantly treated in this manner the eyebrows will soon be a beautiful shape. The brush ing up of the outward tip gives coquet- hsh expression to some faces.

boxers to come down to Miiletts and
