mary meetings have been held in the
various districts of the metropolitan

tire world within the present gener-

Happily we are not living in the
days when women depended upon in
activity for beautiful hands, and hes
itated to carry books or to open doors
for fear of disfiguring them.
We supplement a usefulness by thor
ough, intelligent treatment of the
hands.
a beautiful hand must be shapely,
soft and white. Now, not one person
in ten has a perfect hand, but it is
within the power of every woman to so
improve the looks of her hands that
they can be made fully as attractive
as a pretty face.
For hands that are thick and short
a treatment can be given which gives
wonderful results in a very short time.
With the elbow resting on a soft cush-
ion massage the hand. beginning at the
tips of the fingers and rubbing gently
downward. Apply a good emollient to
the skin. just enough to be thoroughly
absorbed by it, This will soften and
improve the shape.
To secure a whiteness bleach
should be Systematically applied. There
are many lotions for whitening the
skin. but peroxide of hydrogen with
a little water will be found as effectual
oh no

Many women do not use cosmetic
gloves in the correct way. An old pair
of gloves should be cut down the back
and lined with the glove paste. This
is made by using ground barley the
white of an egg. a teaspoOnful of gly
cerine and one ounce of honey Mix
the last three ingredients. and add
enough barley to form paste. Use
soft, large leather gloves, three or
four sizes too large
Spread the paste upon the inside of
the gloves and. after placing the hands
in the gloves, have them sewn up from
the outside This insures an even dis
tribution of the friendly paste and, of
course. assists in the work of the
gloves
Poor circulation often causes red
ness; it is due to an overcharged con-
'dition of the blood vessels and detracts
from the appearance of the hands,

Care of the Hands

advise an investigation of the sleeves
of your dress if this condition obtain
Look at the armholes, the elbows or
the cuffs, and discard any waist that
is too light.
Then hold your hands up above your
head, spreading out the fingers. Repeat
this four or five times. The blood will
move on in it's course, the veins will
resume their natural size and the red
ness disappear.
Thin, bony hands can be given spe-
cial exercise. Hold them, wrists up,
with the fingertips resting on a table.
Coins placed upon the backs should not
be displaced during the finger exercise.
This resembles that of your piano les
sons, each finger being liften and re-
placed while the others remain down.
The width of a hand can thus be in
creased and graceful flexibility OBJ

These are suggestions for all sorts
and conditions fhands. 1 think that
nothing responds so quickly to a pa
tient home treatment as this part of
the body There is no excuse for un-
slightly hands in this advanced age of
beauty. If yours are not deserving of
notice why not begin to carefully i'm
