her work, when finished, is anything
but pretty. Even if one cares naught
for needIework, it is somewhat NOR
moist that ones friends dread to
touch them.
AS you doubtless agree with me that
damp palms are something you could
live without, I will tell you what 9TH
er people have done to remedy this
condition of the skin. Listen!
One way of combating this condi-
ton of the palms is to nao1sten them
frequently throughout the day with
some effective astringent lotion, rub
bing it into the skin with considerable
friction. Such q liquid can be made
by com bining six ounces of rose-water,
one-haIf ounce of simple tinctOre of
benzoin, two ounces of e1der-doweT
water and ten grains of tann1c acid.
Just before retiring and after max
ing ones toilette in the morning, it
is expedtent to coat the hands thick

being both drying and stimulating, it
