Health and Beauty Hints.

HeaIth ana beauty Hints.
Because it matters little how light
her hair becomes, blonde may wash
her hair more frequently than a bru-
nette.
When shampooing never rub the
soap directly on the hair, as it gums
and is almost impossible to rub or
rinse off, Always have the soap in
some liquid form.
Bushy. irregular eyebrows should be
brushed lightly with a camel s-hair
brush dipped in olive OIL The same
treatment is good for stiff and harsh
eyebrows and it is said to make them
grow.
To stop bleeding of the fingers,
hand, arm or foot, raise the part as
high as possible. The best plan in the
case of, say, the hand, is to put it un-
der the cold water tap for a minute or
half a minute, and then raise it above
the head.
When a person feels jumpiness,
panied by headache, there is indicated
general rundown state of the nerves
and the system. Plenty of plain ,nour-
ishing food should be eaten. There
should be daily outdoor exercise and
a good internal nerve tonic should be
taken.
There are various causes for redness
of the nose, not to suggest the use of
alcoholic beverages as being one of
them If cause exists the remedy sug-
gests itself But another cause is de
fective circulation. In such cases out
door exercise is necessary and much
good will result from cold bath every
morning. followed by brisk rundown.
A good tonic should be taken.

an intensely practical age. So rapidly
are We living that all forces are ANAL
gamating, and evolving a type of wo-
man such as the world has never seen
before. She is not a fiedgling nor a
merely pretty thing, but a woman OF
gracious tact and wide sympathy, who
has lived down many a bitter disap-
pOintment and crushed many a sOr-
row, but who is imbued with the opti-
mistic spirit of Young America; she
knows that in order TO do her best she
must look her best; she inspires old
and young with her youthful enthu-
siasm; she is sincerely interested in
every humane question of the day;
thus unconsciously does she cultivate
those endearing qualities of the heart,
the daily exhibition of which, in the
course of years, imparts an atmosphere
of soft, sweet, femininity, and gives to
a woman when she reaches middle life
that delightful subtle spirit We call
charm" This is perhaps what the
satirical Bernard Shaw meant when
he asserted that no woman is possible
until she has reached her thirty-fifth
year, and not worth talking to until
her fortieth, -Delineator

Cleaning Windows.

A cloudy day is the best for wash
ing the windows, because the warm
sunshine dries the water too quickly
and the window is streaked at best Do
not use soap in washing the windows.
Clear, warm water, with little kero-
sene or ammonia added, will give a
highly polished surface Add one Ia
blespoon of ammonia or two of kero-
sene to a gallon of water. The pro-
fessional window cleaner often does
not use water at all. He first rubs the
Jhickest of the dirt eff and then covers
the window with a coating of whiting
and household ammonia, leaves it on
for fifteen or twenty minutes and then
rubs it off with an old rag or a news
paper and polishes it TO shininess.
