nothing so good as spurmax for colu
sores, freckles and tan.
Carolyn: / am glad you found quin-
zoin hair tonic so satisfactory. NO,
you should not shampoo your hair
with soap and water while using the
tonic-nor at anv other time, for that
matter-so many snaps leave the hair
dull brittle and streaked. You Will
find a canthrox shampoo surprise
and delight'-that is what the mag

true Try one-either at your hair

H II. A.: All the external complex

creams or lotions-will not rid you OF
pimples If your blood is out of order.
| have always believed in the good old
fashioned methods of our mothers, who
every spring gave us medicine TO

Of impurities resulting from the indoor
life of winter. Get from your drug
gist one ounce of kardene, mix 1t with
y cup of sugar and u pint OF alcohol
and then add water enough to make q

spring tonic purifies the blood, arouses
the torpid liver, aids digestion, re-
stores lost appetite and clears the SKIN

tions by removing the cause. 1t
Strengthens and builds up the entire
system. You'll feel like a new girl in
a few weeks and that tired OUT feel

G. j.: Yes. my advlces from Paris
are that this years fashions will do
away with the wearing of rats. puffs
and all forms of false hair. | well
come this return to common sense in
styles and i am sure no woman VIII
suffer embarrassment If she takes
proper care of the hair with which
Nature endowed her. The use of the
right tonic will noursh the scalp and
the hair follicles. prevent the hair
coming out and keep ii glossy, fluffy
and lustrous-so that a small guam
tity of hair properly cared for and
richly glowing with its own natural
color (even If it be gray) is more at
tractive than a huge mass of coarse
and dead looking false hair. Get from
your druggist one ounce of quinzoin.
dissolve it in 4 pint of alcohol anV
add p pint of cold water. Rub this
tonic gently into the scalp and roots
of the hair once or twice week. THIS
treatment will kill the germs that
cause dandruff and falling hair. 1t Is
very invigorating. nourshing and re-
freshing to the scalp.
Mrs. c. McF. To secure the clear
fresh and soft skin you say you envy
so much advise you to use almozoin
cream jelly both as massage anu
face cream. This contains no oils or
fats that will make the skin dark and
greasy looking or cause a growth of
hair. Get from your druggist one
ounce of almozon and dissolve 1t in
- pint of water. then add teaspoon
fuls of glycerine; stir briskly for
few minutes and let stand over night.
Almozoin cream jelly, used for mas
saying, clears the skin of blackheads
and pimples not caused by impure
blood or the result of functional dis
orders. 1t makes large pores small and
keeps the skin smooth, soft and pliable.
1t is a thorough cleanser and will re-
move dirt that soap and water never
touch.
NJ X. j.: When your eyes so easily
become dull red and inflamed it is an
indication that you reed an eye tonic.
Bright, clear and sparkling eyes are
charm to any woman. while on the
other hand 1t requires an unusually
beautiful face to offset unattractive
eyes. You can make an excellent eye
tonic by dis5olving an ounce of crystos
in a pint of water. One or two drops
in each eye will promptly relieve your
eyes of dullness, redness or inflamma-
tion. 1t does not smart or burn and
will strengthen your eyesight, Crys-
tos is a great help to those who wear
glasses.

GOOD EXERCISE.
Praeticirs Juggling at Home as an Aid
to Health.

1t has been contended that the
easiest and pleasantest way to keep
in fit condition is to practice jug
Cling, the art of balancing and
catching objects.
When exercising at home, I'M
watched by ii teacher, one is likely
to perform his exercises in an in
correct or ~slovenly fashion, thus do
ing himself more harm than good,
but the simplest feat of juggling can
be done in only II way, the right
way. Again, where physical exercise
develops only a certain part or parts
of the body five minutes Juggling
calls into play every important mus
Gle, Finally, few physical exercises
train the eye or the hand. Juggling
does both.
The mistake the novice is like
ly to make is that he tries to do off
hand what it has taken the expert
enced juggler years of practice to
accomplish. The beginner should,
of course. start with the easiest
feats. such as balancing a walking
stick on his forehead or tossing a
ball from behind his back over his
shoulder and catching it as it falls.
If one is really fond of Juggling he
may invent his own problems.
Here are a few axiOms:
1t is easier to balance a thing on
your head than on your hand.
Up to the point where great phys
ical strength is required the larger
the object the easier it is to balance.
Thus it is easier to balance a walk
ing stick on your forehead than it
is a pencil.
One should always look at the top
Of whatever he is balancing. Begin
ners make the mistake of looking
at the bottom or the middle of the
stick or whatever is being juggled.
Again. when catching things do not
watch your hands. Keep your eye
on the object, just as you would to
catch a batted ball.
In all balancing feats it should be
remembered that the shape of the
object is immaterial. What M has
to do is to balance an imaginary
line passing vertically through the
center of gravity of the object, or,
in other words, to keep its axis per-
pendicular to whatever it is bal
anced upon. Juggling is said to be
the best and healthiest of indoor
exercises, because it does not weary,
because it develops every part Of the
body, because it trains the hand and
the eve and because it makes for
grace.--New York Tribune.

such a person was Professor Benja-

Sir Peter laughed at the SUPPOSE
ton, but the sirdar stood his
ground, and the matter was put to

but, strange to say, not n of them
hit the egg. The governor and his
suit kept their countenances and
excused the of the firing
party OF the ground of the difficulty
of the thing. At last a ball hap

the egg was fastened, and it fell to

the mystery was solved. The cum
