Whitening the Skin.

'sfftoffibH n ohiffs
There is nothing better than lemon
Juice for whitening the skin and max
ing it smooth and soft, but 1T must
never be applied undiluted. 1t is much
too strong.
The best lotion to mix with 1t when
1t Is to be used on the face Is rose
water. To three parts of rosewater
add n part Of lemon Juice and with
a soft linen rag dab this all over the
face. Then rub 1t gently into the skin
until all the moisture is absorbed.
To obtain the effect you desire you
should wash your face thoroughly In
tepid water in the morning and then
apply some of the lemon Juice and
rosewater lotion. Instead Of using
soap and water for cleansing during
the day, just wipe your face over with
the lotion, which you will find quite
effectual In removing all the dust.
At night. before retiring, wash your
face thoroughly In hot water which
has been softened with toilet oatmeal
Cor ordinary oatmeal tied up In a mus
line bag, dry well and then apply some
cold cream. Leave this on your skin
for five or ten minutes, then wipe 1T
off gently with a soft rag.

WASHING GLOVES.

A Method That Keeps chamois Soft
and Supple.
Chamois or doeskin gloves may be
washed at home.
Into basin of lukewarm soapsuds
they are plunged, but not on the hands.
NNoodem trees are ideal for drying
them. With trees they need not be
taken of when wet, as n must do if
hands are used. When soaking In the
suds squeeze and rinse arduously and
If very dirty give a second bath of
fresh suds. The secret is never to
rinse in clear water. Stick to the suds.
The soap left to dry IN keeps doeskin
supple and soft. When removed from
the basin, after squeezing out as much
water and soap as possible, wiring
them well In a towel, then pull gently
into shape, button them together and
hang out wei a line in the open air to
dry.
They should not be hurried and dried
before a hot fire, though a warm place
will do no harm. When practically
dry they must be rubbed in the hands,
when the kid will be found quite soft
and pliable.

Caro- of tho Lips.

Sometimes girls with good lips spoil
their beauty by careless little habits Of
which they are w and no one
has been kind enough to tell them.
A faulty closure of the mouth will
alter the entire expression. 1t gives a
look of heavy vacancy and stupidity
and is often due to improper breathing,
Biting or gpawing the lips or con-
stantly moistening them with the
tongue is a bad habit, due sometimes
to excessive nervousness, but often to
a desire to make the mouth bright red.
Such treatment not only makes the
lips thick and colorless, but the deli
cate muscles become distorted and
twisted. or a protruding mouth is the
result. A few minutes study before
the mirror will show just how to hold
the lips In order to preserve their free,
delicate curves.

unwiso NeaIect,

The girl who IAN or freckles easily
must never neglect her complexion for
a single day In summer. Summer
freckles are not so bad as the perms-
nent variety, but both can and should
be avoided.
1t Is advisable to go collarless in
summer both to give the throat a little
freedom from restrain and also to al
low the neck to tan, so that the dread
full line between sunburn and white
skin is safely avoided.
The present pretty fashion of col
larless frocks is a boon to the girl who
wishes to develop a well rounded
throat. Linen collars will line the neck.
Any tight or stiff collar will spoil the
contour unless constant massage with
q soothing cream is persisted in.

Puffy Eyes.

Pufaness under the eyes is usually
caused by late hours or eye strain.
Apply the following eye wash to the
eyes twice a day: Ten grains borax,
one camphor water-not spirits
Of campher. An outward application
to the skin beneath the eyes will also
assist In removing the puff1ness. To
this mix together twenty grains Of tan
mic acid with one ounce of pure glycer-
In and paint the skin beneath the low
er lid, using a fine camers hair brush.
Accompany this treatment with a
curse Of gentle massage to the skin
around the eyes and in a short time
all traces Of the trouble will have dis

the dried flowers and also a few drops
Of the essential oil. Steep the flowers
In alcohol, keeping the bottle closely
corked. In a few weeks pour of the

that each tramper shall carry several

are bathed in the cool water and the
stockings changed. 1t is said that in
