Groy,s letters

Dear Miss Grey: 1 am seventeen
years old. l just came to this
state this fall, and am doing gem
eral homework. l understand
some about sewing. 1 ask your adj
vice about where to go to learn?
r. M.
Ans.-If you have a home
where you can stay, or have saw
ed enough money to keep you
while you are learning, the best
thing for you is to get in with
first class dressmaker-the very
finest. She will probably pay you
a little, or even IL she pays moth
ing, you will learn how to do
things right, and it will help you
in getting work, or another posi-
ton If 1t is known that you have
sewed with Madam So-and-So.
Dear Miss Grey: (1)Please let
me know II 1t is proper for a sin
gle man to give a married woman
a Christmas present without re-
Numbering her husband. (2)Tell
me how to tan and clean a seal
skin? RUBEN.
Ans.-(1) Some husbands are
delighted to have their friends
give the wife q gift; and others
would make life miserable for the
wife, SO If you are at all In doubt,
and If you wish to remember some
married woman who has entertain
ed you at her home, get something
you can present to them Jointly.
(2) I will give a general recipe
for tanning skins. To tan skins
with the hair on, wash skins and
remove all fleshy matter from in
Ter surface; then clean hair with
soft soap and water and rinse we'll.

Her Dining Table.

Dear Miss Grey: My husband is
a carpenter and cabinet-maker and
has made all our furniture, and is
building us a new house. He is
building all the dressers, window
seats and bookcases into the
house. Now, l want to ask if you
think it will look odd to have the
dining table built into the wall
and have the seats around it?
BUSY MOTHER.
Alt is all right and conven-
lent to have the window seats,
dressers and bookcases built into
the wall, but / don't like the idea
for the table, and l will tell you
why. If you make 1t large enough
to accommodate any guests you
may HAYS, it will not look cosy
and homelike for the family, and
If you have it to suit the house
hold it will not be large enough for
guests. And then it is nice to
have a table SO that it can be
moved to different parts of the
room to suit the occasion.

Dissolve IA lb. each common soap
and alum and IL OF. borax in hot
water. Add sufficient rye meal
to make thick paste which spread
on the flesh side of the skin. Fold
lengthwise, skin in, and hair damp
and let lay in shady, airy place
for about two weeks. Remove
paste from surface, wash and dry.
Dear Miss Grey: Cd Please
tell me what will remove pimples
and blackheads? Also scars? ca
What would be a correct dress for
travelling? (3) Is it true that
overeating and laughing will make
one fat2 (D What will remove
wrinkles? GREENHORN.
A.-(1) Bathing the body daily
will remove pimples from the face.
Drinking lots of water will also
help. For blackheads steam face
nightly, and massage with good
cream. CD A dark blue serge. 1t

MAKES CHRISTMAS
PLEA IN POETIC FORM

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Dec.
25.-A convict in the state peni-
tentiary here has written a
, Christmas poem. He hides his
identity under the pen name, mo.
1890" Here is his poem:
There isn't much Christmas up
here in the pen,
There isn't much holiday cheer;
No breathin' of jolly or wreathin'
of holly
Or wishin' happy new year.
The stockin's are hung on the line
1t is true
(They're hung there to dry out
the wet)-
The heat may have dried 'em, but
nothin's inside 'em
To make 1t like Christmas, you
bet.
1t seems that st. Nicholas some
how forgets
The poor fellow lodged in the
pen.
Did jolly Kris Kringle you never
hear Jingle
Among these poor decolate
men.
Except now and then the express
team comes in
With box and prepaid" on
the bill,
For some lucky devil with folks
ION the level
Who love and remember him
still.
There's kerchiefs from Sis, and
there's smokin' from Pa,
And Ma sends him money for
lunch,
"A pipe from a brother and some
thing or other
From each of the family bunch.
All! people outside, with your
stockings hung up,
Your Christmas tree tinsel and
gold!
Do you ever remember along in
December
These men In the prison SO
cold?
Perhaps there is someone up here
in the pen
Who still has the heart of a boy.
Perhaps you can spare him-per-
haps you can share him
A bit of your own Christmas
joy.
30 pack up box for the man in
the pen
And put in a present or two;
"a pipe made of briar, his thoughts
to inspire,
When alone he is dreaming of
you.
Some book he can read in his cell
house at night,
Some underwear. kerchiefs or
sox.
Think not of self only-remember
the lonely
Yes, pack up and send him a
box.

My Uncle Jack says amt 1t odd
To shut your eyessand try to see
Way back before the world. when God
Was just a little boy like me.
He was an orphan child, no doubt,
And lonesomer than all-get-out.
He didn't have an Uncle Jack,
A grandma, or little brother;
No pa to ride him pick-a-back;
He didn't even have a mother!
Just think how dark it must have been
With no one there to tuck him in.
And s'pose he lost his latest toy,
What did he ever do to play?
The neighbors had no little boy
And they all lived so far away.
And when he went to find 'em there.
They wasn't even anywhere!
And Uncle says he MAY be wrong,
But he thinks God began creatin'
Cause he had played alone so long,
