Caring For :
The Nails

|, A Scotch saying is a man had better
never been born than have his nails on
Sunday shorn. We know the old for
health, on Tuesday for wealth, on
for something better. on Friday for q
wife, on Saturday for long life and on
Sunday you cut them for evil. as all
that week you VIII be ruled by the
devil.
Nails are supposed to grow the. thir-
ty-second part Of an inch in week. an
inch and q half in year. The nails
of the thumb and little finger grow the
most slowly, the middle finger grows
the quickest. They grow quicker in
summer than winter, those Of the right
hand quicker than the left and four
times as quickly as the toe nails. ILL.,
ness and grief affect the nails.
People with broad nails have gentle,
timid, bashful natures. those with mar
row nails are said to be ambitious and
quarrelsome. small nails indicate lit
tleness Of mind and conceit. round nails
come to lovers Of knowledge. white
marks augur indigestion.
Lemon Juice makes nails smooth and
removes stains. Have lemon Juice and
salt on the washstand and dip the An
ger and rub cold cream into the GU
ticles at night.
To keep the nails in good condition
tho scarf skin round the nail should be
pushed back daily with a proper in
strument for the purpose. Before cut
