A CONVENIENT WORK BAG SECRET OF GOOD HOSTESS
Carefully to Plan Details and Make
Guests Feel Welcome and
Comfortable.

The secret of the successful hostess
is to make her guests feel welcome
and as comfortable as possible, and to
carefully plan out and arrange every
detail before the actual day; then
should things go wrong it will be by
the merest accident.
If she is giving an informal tea and
the callers are not likely to exceed
twelve the tea should be served in the
drawing room, pouring it out herself
and intrusting the delivery of the cups
and small cakes to a girl friend or gen.
tleman visitor, should the husband not
be present.
If the number increases beyond this
It is better to serve tea in the dining
room. In any case the best available
china should be used, spotless napery
and glistening silver. Lace-edged and
embroidered doilies should be placed
on the plates which hold the cakes and
dainty sandwiches.
We are told the ideal hostess is
born, not made, but even If the little
fairy forgot the gift Of hospitality at
our birth it would seem the duty of
every woman to cultivate this art. %.
We are also told that practise
makes perfect" and after little prac
tise. If her endeavors are earnest a
woman will gain that envied reputa
tion of being good hostess"

PROPER CARE OF SKIN
MANY BADLY AFFECTED BY SOAP
IN COLD WEATHER.
Drying Effect Of Cold Causes Skin to
Crack PainfulIy-Washing Pow
ders That Are Cleansing, Soft
ening and Refining.

Persons with delicate skin some
times are SO unfortunately affected by
soap in cold weather that to try to get
clean with it is to harm the flesh. AL
most every one knows that cold is
drying to the skin; that, for example,
may be all right through the summer
sometimes crack painfully; cold has
dried out the natural lubricating oils
even when the drying process does
not go to this extent the skin will be-
come roughened by it, and when this
happens dust settles under in way
which makes eradication impossible.
One woman, whose skin is like pa.
per IN its delicacy, counteracts the eff
feet of soap by always rubbing her
hands with grease before she washes
them. Either vaseline or cold cream
serves the purpose. and the fingers
and backs are well covered with it.
Then washing is done with a bland
soap and warm water drying with
great care follows, and the skin stays
smooth and white.
1t Is impossible to lay down a rule
as to the use of soap. It's effects is in
fuenced entirely by the natural con-
dition OF the skin on which 1t is put
and what may suit one person perfect
ly may be too greasy or too drying for
another. Contrary to general belief,
CASTLE soap disagrees with many per-
sons. 1t is extremely drying to the
average adults skin, and though it
suits babies admirably, it ceases to
ngree as they grow older. Palm oil is
one OF the simplest, looking not unlike
CASTLE. Its effect is sometimes highly
desirable with persons to whom CASTLE
Is positively injurious.
Various washing powders, so-called
soap substitutes, are good, but so elab-
orate to make that few care to go to
the trouble of making them AS rule
their basis is ground almonds, and un
less one has all the utensils with
which to work it becomes absolutely
impractical to prepare the powder
properly.

necessity of their repeal and

dinaces to conform with the new
situation. The council also de-
clded the question OF supplying
water for the street sprinkler.
This topic has been discussed at

council was about TO decide to
abolish the street sprinkler alto

caused from the leaking OF water
on the streets, wherever water

was finally decided to erect a
