A Get Beautiful Quick Scheme.

"1f you have a hurry call to be beau
tiful without the time to work up to
the permanent affair."" said Mildred
Holland. there's your chance. First
wash your face with warm water and
almond meal. Make sort of paste Of
those things and wash of with warm
water and dry lightly. Then apply
your skin food lest there be any reac.
ton from the drastic treatment to fol.
low. Now take piece Of lemon and
rub 1t over the face till the skin
smarts. Rinse again, this time with
water that is gradually brought down
from cool to cold. You are then ready
for the final ceremony. Hold good
sized piece Of ice in towel and iron
your face with It. Then look in the
glass. This has been found an abso-
lutely reliable recipe before asking for
the coveted new bonnet."-New York

Maxine THINGS Hum In Rome.

The Romans had three recognized
methods Of applauding-the bombus,
the imbrices and the testae. The word
bombus did not carry any allusion to
explosives. On the contrary, this form
Of applause was the most decorous, in
asmuch as it consisted merely Of q
humming or buzzing noise. Thus in a
way the Romans were the first ito
make things hum in public Assem-.
bly,. The bombus was not the chief
feature the Romans had to offer in the
way Of applause. The imbrices meant
a demonstrate ton made with the hollow
Of the hands. The testae meant the
striking together Of the fiat portions Of
the hands. From this we may con-
clude that the Romans clapped, but
there is no certainty on this point
