In awarding one of these national

Sweepinu Good Exercise.

Sweeping exercises every muscle of
the body. 1t is sufficiently vigorous
to give good exercise, and at the same
time it is not so strenuous as to over
tire. A woman who sweeps does 1t
regularly at certain hours Of the day.
and regularity in exercise makes for
good.
Then, again, the exercise Is exercise
with a definite object in view. The
mind is interested at the same time as
the body is employed.
Sweeping movements are particular
ly good for the lungs. The chest mus
cles are exercised all the time, and
this helps to establish deep breathing.
This naturally tends to produce a good
figure as we'll as a pure state OF the
blood and therefore a good complexion.
The old fashioned broom should be
used and not the patent carpet sweep
err. Tea leaves or damp bran should
be used beforehand to prevent the lust
from rising and getting into the lungs.

Care Of the Feet.

The American woman Is said to rival
the Chinese in the abuse Of her feet.
But the oriental woman has the ad-
vantage over the occidental-she wad-
dies frankly, while the American girl
%cultivates grace and eloquence of car
rage in the narrowest Of shoes, the
highest of heels or the most treach-
erous of pumps.
Corns on the soles of the feet are
often developed by wearing shoes
which are too narrow. They a be
removed with a lotion composed of col
lodion and salicylic acid.
Callosities made by the pump which
slips can be rubbed of with pumice
stone, after which cold cream must be
applied.
To feet which swell easily some COM
fort is restored by a bath containing
salt and borax.
For troublesome perspiration use Or
ris powder, alum water or a lotion
consisting of four ounces of bay rum
and eight grains of fannie acid.

Rest Cure For the Hair.

Rest cure for the hair is being prac-
ticed by American society women. 1t
requires that they give up their social
engagements for a week, but 1t re-
wards them with lustrous healthy
hair, in addition to giving them a
chance to relax from the strenuous
rush of social calls. Autumn is the
best time for the rest cure, as the hair
thins out and often gives women much
alarm. During the cure vanity COM
pels the women to remain in hiding
except to their most intimate friends.
Hats and hair structures are discard
ed. The hair is permitted to hang
loose. There are no curls. No hat
is worn. and the SUI is permitted to
shine on the hair, giving 1t a rich lus-
ter. It Is brushed frequently. and the
hair Is secured in coils rather than In
curls. but rs few pins as possible are
used to hold the coils together.

WHEN WHISTLER
MIXED THE COLORS
An Art School Incident In Which
the Painter Figured.

Lord Northcliffe, the English jour
naiist, praised at a dinner in New
York the Unionist party, to which he
belongs.
II like the Unionists," he said, ''be-
cause they work on clean cut, scien-
tifc lines. The Liberals are mud
oilers. They muddle along. They
make me think Of an anecdote about
your famous American painter Whis-
tier.
"Whistler visited his school one
morning in the Latin quarter and
found fault with the yellow back
ground against which the model vas
posing. He had the background chang
ed to brown. Then, sitting before a
pupils canvas, he proceeded to cover
the pupils background Of yellow with
q brown One.
"But the ugly yellow tones kept
showing through the rich brown.
Whistler scraped out his work and
painted it over with brown again.
Still the yellow showed. He scraped
viciously, then daubed on brown. but
the result was still bad, and he scrap
ed off the paint once more.
His pupils, grouped behind him,
watched these proceedings reverently.
Whistler took up another brushful Of
brown and said:
"'I suppose you all know what I'm
trying to do here?
"'Oh, yes. sir; yes. SIR the pupils
answered.
"'Well,' said Whistler, with a sour
laugh, you know more than l do,
then. and, selling his fat ribbed hat
long wand and sulphur colored gloves,
he made a dash tor the b~oulevards."
