How often do you open your eyes H.

faced when the whole world seems
mixture of lampblack and bIuing
when your friends are viewed with n
iaundiced eye aud your family seems
sadly in need Of reformation. when the
air you breathe seems laden with

through q cloud of woe aud your

What is the matter with you? What
is the difference between yourself OF
yesterday and Yourself Of today? ooh.
WE'LL you say. 1--WE got the blues
that's what's the matter with me"
And YOU assume the air of one who

Mirror.
A Little Beauty Talk.

Headache is often the result OF in
digestion No woman, however perfect
of feature, can be truly beautiful when
racking pain draws her face full
OF fine lines and dulls the expression
of the eyes. The next time YOU are
suffering with headache try drinking
half glass of cold water into which
have been put the juice OF half a
lemon and half teaspoonful of soda
The drink is not unpleasant, and in
many cases it brings almost immediate
relief
A woman whose hair is always soft
and glistening has disclosed the secret
of her attractive couture. She buys
q package of absorbent cotton from
from il and places the layer over the
| bristles Of a wire hair brush. pushing
it well down until the bristlcs pene.
trate the cotton, which should lie close
| to the back of the brush Then she
strokes the hair. beginning near the
scalp and giving vigorous stroke to
the ends. A few Of these firm strokes
will reveal how, large a quantity Of
| dust and smoke can he taken mp 10y
the cotton. the result being the same
as the cold cream bath to the face at
the end of the day.
Just as cold cream leaves the face
bright and fresh. the cotton brushing
leaves the hair with brilliant sheen
and natural hulincsS.
The cotton stroke should be admin.
istered every night just before retiring,
an open window being the ideal place
for the identifying process.
Every woman has known the misery
OF needing n shampoo after q journey
and not being able TO have il ut once
because Of lack Of facilities. The hot
and cold water may be handy. but not
the shampoo medium. So prepare this
before YOU !eaye home aud carry It
along in a tightly stoppered bottle-a
three ounce vial will do.
Boil CASTLE soap shaved To n powder,
about two heaping teaspoonfuls in n
little water putting in about two salt
spoonfuls Of washing soda When get

wee bit of cold cream into the scalp,
then slightly wet the hair and work

Rinse as usual trying TO keep the
successive waters Al an even tempera-
ture. 1t is the sudden change from
hot TO cold water that makes the hair
harsh. as il IS soioften found to be after
the most caref,ilfshampoo.
The reason given by beauty people
for boiling the soap used in shampoos
Is that this preparation makes il still
more bland. If the hard cake is rubbed
directly upon the hair IL is bound TO be
harsh and less bright than if the head
is washed by regularly prepared soap
