TO COMPOUND COLD CREAM
Recipe for Most Valuable Toilet Prep
srstlon Which Can Be Made
at Home

To make sure OF getting colo

oils many women like 10 compound
their own massage creams.
They often fail to get results from
a good recipe by not understanding
the art OF compromising. All cold
creams are made in the same way.
The fatty substances are put in
double boiler and melted, stirring
constantly. When all are melted turn
out in bowl and stir. scrapinE down

The chief trouble comes in adding
the extracts and astringents. which
must be added gradually when the

then add tinctures or extracts last Of
all. These 20 in drop by drop also.
fat wire egg beater can be used
successfully when large amount OF
the mixture is being made up and one
woman swears by a mayonnaise mixer
for compromising her toilet creams.
Here is a recipe that can be used
freely without fear of becoming beard
ed or fuzzy: Eight tablespoonfuls
each Of almond oil and rosewater, two
tablesponfuls each of white wax and
spermaced. a teaspoonful Of tincture
Of benzoin.
Melt the oil. then add the wax and

Two Mi1shipmen Quit Annapolis.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. January 15.-For
'inaptitude." which covers a multitude
of offenses against the regulations Of
discipline, and general disqualification
to become an officer of the navy, Mid
shipman Charles N. Perkins OF New
York, member OF the second class,
was yesterday dropped from tho rolls
of the Naval Academy. The order of
the Navy Department providing for the
separation of Perkins from the service
was promulgated before the brigade Of
midshipmen at dinner formation yes
terday. Perkins had been reported for
misconduct until he had exceeded the
number of dement's allowed. In addi-
ton. he was not a satisfactory student
along general lines. ranking well down
to the bottom of his class, which has a
membership of over 200. Perkins en-
tered the academy I'm July, 1907, and
is twenty-one years old. Realizing that
he is behind in his studies and would
probably be found deficient in the semi
annual examinations to be conducted
the latter part of this month, Midship-
man Roger Williams OF the fourth
class yesterday rendered his resigna-
ton. which was accepted by the Navy
Department.

The Salary Basis of Retirement.
To the Editor Of The Star:


1 notice in your issue of January IL a
communication from Mr.. j.. Harwood.
calling attention to an article entitled
''The True Retirement Principle" in your
edition OF January .. have not seen
the article to which he refers but I
should like 10 say the point he makes is
we'll taken and to correct the impression
which lie seems to have that the plan
embodied in Senate bill 1914 tthe Perkins
bib would work the hardship which he
fears.
He seems to believe that the retiring
allowance would be based on the salary
received at the time of retirement. Such
is not the case. The bill provides that
the retiring allowance shall be equal to
112 per cent of the aggregate salary re-
ceived by the employee during his en-
tire period of service, which Is the equiv
alent Of IL per cent Of the average salary
mot the final salary for each year of
service. Mr.. Harwood is correct in say
ing that it would be fragrant Injustice
to base the retiring allowance on the final
salary, which might be much lower than
the average pay. The average salary is
the only scientific basis Of calculation
In England they compute the retiring al
lowance on the basis of the salary during
the last three years. but 1t has long been
recognized over there that this method is
objectionable. and effort has been made
has been that the final salary is often
much higher than the average pay
Whether the final salary Is lower or
higher than the average salary received
by the employee. such method of COM
putation is pretty sure to work an in
justice. Certainly it offers motive to
heads of offices to show favor in making
promotions and demotions that could not
be considered desira Bile.
Mr.. HARDWOOD cites the case of a clerk
who had worked tWenty-three years for
Sl.cO0 and two years ago was reduced on
account of Ill health, to $720 He holds
and justly so. that to retire such an en-
ploye on 112 per cent of the lowest salary
received seems cruelty in the extreme =
His annual retiring allowance under such
an arrangement. would be u. per cent
of $50 for twenty-five years or only
$210. No such arrangement, however is
proposed. What he would get under
the plan would be liz per cent of S12O
for twenty-three years, plus II. per cent
of S120 for two years. or an annual al
loWance OF S435.
