The greatest emancipation proclama-
ton since Lincoln'S is printed on the back
of the red and green Fels-Naptha soap
wrapper. It is the directions for using
FelS-Naptha in washing clothes.
It is also d different way of washing.
it has freed millions of women from wash
day drudgery for all time to come-from
slavery to the old back-breaking, health
wrecking methods which used to be
thought necessary.
Are you still slave to these old-fash-
toned methods, drudging away every wash
day, wasting your time and your work and
wearing out clothes before their timer
Then stop. Use FelS-Naptha. Wash your
clothes in the new and easy way in cool or
lukewarm water, summer or winter, with
out boiling or hard rubbing Easy directions
on the back of the Fels-Naptha wrapper.

Hoe to Ha1e Beautiful Hands and
By EVELYN RORNER.

COMEBODY has said that the hand
y is the second face, and l believe
if one has pretty hands one has a
good right to be proud OF them, for
there are more pretty faces than
pretty hands in the world, and it's
much easier to beautify the face than
to make the hand graceful and charm
ing.
\ woman's hand has so much to do
mean, of course. the average woman
who has to care for her house, to look
after her children. and who has her
hand in a hundred and one different
things during the day So it is no
wonder that there are so few classic
ally beautiful hands in the world.
The hand that rocks the cradle may
still be white and soft, but when it
shreds the Goldfish, blacks the stove
does the family mending and washes
clothes besides, you can forgive it for
looking worn at an early age.
However even homework no longer
has terrors for the woman who wants
| to keep her hands pretty, and who
knows how for a cure has been found
for almost all the troubles that bese.
a busy pair of hands.
When a woman's hands get very red
| for no apparent reason. she is usually
wearing some tight band around her
body, either a corset that is too snug
or tight garters. Even tight shoes
will make the hands red and. OF
course, long immersion in cold or hot
water will do the same thing. Then
again, when the hands grow red ant

Light Rubbing.

If your pumice stone is soft and
fairly smooth. as it sometimes is, you
won't need anything else but a little
light rubbing over the hairy surface
But if the pumice stone is coarse and
rough, wet it little with soapy water
and then rub it briskly and lightly in
circular manner over the skin on
which the hair is growing. You will
soon wear off the hair. and if you rub
lightly you won't irritate the skin II
you do, apply little glycerine or cold
cream
Most people can use glycerine on
their hands and arms though they can
not use it on their face and it is
good thing to have on ones wash
stand for its constant use will keep
the hands very nice and soft
Probably the main reason why the
skin of so many hands is so coarse
and ugly is because people don't take
time enough to dry their hands prop
erly. but hurry over them as best they
may.
The little white spots on the nails
are due to poor circulation, and the
ridges on the nails come from excess
uric acid in the blood
The white spots occasionally come
from bruises or bumps. and then they
soon disappear, but when they are the

Preventing Dirty Nails.

If one has any dirty work to do like
polishing shoes, for instance, or the
kitchen stove. and one can not save
ones fingers from getting dirty, a little
grease or lard. rubbed around the
finger nails, will keep the dirt from
getting in them
After the hands have been thorough
ly washed, they should be dried with
powdered starch. and sometimes it is a
good thing to use oatmeal boiled and
strained, instead of using soap. Oat
meal makes the hands nice and soft,
and so will almond meal or bran.
For the woman who has much house
work to DO, there are various kinds Of
gloves to protect the hands while do
ing it, and if she objects to the doors
which may linger on the skin, she can
remove the unplea SAINT odor by rubbing
them with powdered mustard or by
! putting mustard in the water in which
she washes her hands
! / have found that the best whitener
J for ordinary purposes is plain lemon
Juice and the oil in lemon peel. This
softens the skin and makes it delight
| fu to the touch.
When your hands are very rough and
you want to get them soft in a very
short time, take q little sweet cream,
cold cream, buttermilk or butter, wash
your hands thoroughly in warm water,
then rub in any one of these creams
you may have, while the hands are
still wet. Rub until there is nothing
left to absorb; then wash off quickly
in warm water, just enough to do away
with the sticky feeling which is so I'M
pleasant. People whose hands chap
very easily ought to do this every time
they wash their hands, using an mex
pensive cold cream and a pure soap.
| have heard lots of women complain
! that the use of grease in any form on
the hand and forearm would make the
hair grow. Well. there is a simple
remedy for that. 1t consists of a FIVE
cent piece of pumce bought at the drug
store and rubbed on the arm in this
way.

The Passing oftheOld Fence Rail
We are of the long ago,

We ire of the long ago,
We were riven from the ash,
From the chestnut and the oak
With many a sturdy blow.
Old Bill in the winter and fall,
Split us into nseful rails,
With the AK and glut and wedge
And the old time wooden maui.
Yes, split us from the logs.
And zig-zaggin round the crop,
To stop out the ugly hogs
And all the jumping stock.
And in repairing, often
The top rail sIput at the bottom.
And the bottom at the top,
To save the growing crop.
But we are of the past
And going very fast,
Now used to kindle fires
And in our place barbed wires.
