Helm to a Good Complexion.

Just before going to bed one might
each week slip into your room gown
and draw a chair before the basin in
your bathroom. Provide yourself
with a Turkish towel, a face towel,
an ordinary face cloth and face cream,
sit and begin operations.
First, apply the cleansing cream,
smearing it well in, removing what
remains on the surface with the soft
cloth and sit back and rest while 1t
remains from three to five minutes,
Remove it, and while the face is still
hot from the cloth, rub in more cream
and cover with a cloth dipped in wa
ter as cold as 1t is possible to have
It. Allow this to remain a few min
utes, then remove and wipe the face
gently, dust with rice powder and
there you are, your skin feeling, and
perhaps looking, as fresh as that OF
an infant Remember this treatment
should not be taken oftener than once
a week, but then regularly.

Four out of every five smart women

With it a dark-haired girl would wear

is done to the vision of the spectators
by combining these three emphatic

CONSTANTINE MAN OF ACTION
Himself Worthy Of the Crown He
Has inherited.

Constantine, the new king Of Greece,
Is OF Danish and Russian blood, his
father having been a son OF Christian
TX. OF Denmark, and his mother being
the eldest daughter of Grand Duke
Constantine, a brother Of Alexander
H. King Constantine was born in
Athens and brought up under an Eng
lish governess and German and Greek
tutors. Later on he went to Berlin,
where he received his education as a
soldier, being attached to the Second
regiment OF Prussian foot guards. In
1897 he took command OF the Greek
troops in the war with Turkey but
his army was crushed in Thessaly.
In April last he was appointed inspec-
tor general Of the forces, and has since
shown himself a soldier Of merit. At
the moment Of his accession he was in
Epirus, conducting the military opera
tons for sweeping the Turks out Of
that province.

The benefits derived by our farmers
from the pleasure Of the motor car can
hardly be estimated 1t is certainly
equal to the happiness given by the
car to people in other walks Of life,
says Leslies. 1t can also be claimed
that in the purchase of the automobile
by our country friends there is an eco
nomic future. 1t enables a daughter
or son of farmer living several miles
from the village to market poultry,
eggs, butter, and similar products, do
the buying, and return home in two
or three hours. In the old times
this would require the loss of the
services of a man and a team. OF
course, it cannot be claimed from this
standpoint alone that it's advantages
are commensurate with the cost of the
motor car and the upkeep. Another
factor is of more value. The general
use of cars by the farmers has giveT
great popularity to this method.

A dispatch from Paris says that a
movement has been started in the gay
city to substitute less meaningless
phrase for the popular salutation,
How do you do?" In the first place,
the French idiomatic phrase of greet
ing cannot be rendered into the Eng
lish How do you DOR but literally
translated is How do you carry your.
self" How do you do?" is not insipid.
but graciously suggests regard for
ones friend by making 1t the first con-
sideratiOn to obtain assurance that he
is in good health. This is the founda.
ton idea Of forms of greeting in all
parts of the world. including such spe-
cial inquiries as that of "How's your
liver?" which prevails among the Eng
fish in the trying climate Of India. The
probability is that even the mercurial
French would not be likely to yield
readily to an invitation to change in
a day a custom of centuries. But Paris
correspondents often are more con.
cerned about amusing their readers
than instructing them-and this dis
cussion as to altering the form of sal
utation may afford an illustration Of
that fact.
