A WORD IN THE EAR
 Of AN UNTIDY GIRL

Herbert Spencer was once asked if he would make motto for the girls of a school in which he was greatly interested This is the mot to he gave them: Instead of being made-make yourself" There is no motto that can be more earnestly recommended to girls who have be. ccme possessed by the belief that they cannot be tidy, because they have not been born of a tidy nature" :" It is an absolute fact that many people resign themselves to all sorts of pernicious habits, slothfulness un- tidiness, idleness, want of punctuality, and so forth, simply because they have got into their heads the fixed idea that nature has endowed them with these undesirable qualities, that natures endowment is not to be got rid of. and that they can no more free themselves from their bad habits than they can change the color of their eyes or the shape of their noses!

SUBSTITUTES FOR PLATINUM.

The great increase in the value ol platinum during the last few weeks has led many investigators 10 seek substitutes for it. The search has been partly successful
 Platinum-clad nickel steel wire is beginning to displace platinum wire in incandescent lights; wires of nick el alloys are now used in mak- ing the cheaper grades of artificial teeth; asbestos threads are taking the place of platinum wire in gas mantiesi and fused quartz ware has come into general use in chemical laborator es in the place of platinum utensils.
 Yet the introduction of these suh- stitutes has not affected the price of platinum. the demand for the metal seems to have steadily increased in spite of them.

AN ANCIENT REMEDY

The great ladies of hundred the housewifely arts as in social graees They personally superintend- ed the management of their farms, gardens and kitchens. They had a store of treasured family recipes and prided themselves on the skill with which they could cope with the minor ailments of the body whenever any of their family was indisposed.
 Rummag, ,ng in an old drawer, the descendants of certain famous grande dame of sixty years ago came across a remedy for influenza, or grip, which was then epidemic in the country for the first time.
 A physician to whom the remedy vas shown says that as a preventive of or a recuperative after the grip there is merit still in the old time remedy.
 It is as follows: Beat two yolks of eggs we'll and then add one table spoonful of cinnamon water and. lastly, a tablespoonful of brandy. Serve a wineglassful of this mixture about II o'clock in the morning.
 Another recipe in this collection was one to cure cclds quickly. It is as follows: Beat the white and yOlk of an egg with tablespoonful of sy rup of cloves and the same of syrup of cinnamon, teaspOonful lemon syrup and two teasponnfuls or rum. This quantity is suff;cien for two persons; therefore divide it into two tumblers and fill each tumbler grad ually with boiling water, stirring quickly all the time.

 l. has been said that women could add ten years to their lives, if they would practice the habit of lying down in perfectly relaxed condi- ton for a half hour, or even twenty minutes, each day This is, of course, out of the question with many busy women. and yet there are few who could not make an eff. fort to do it if they fully realized the immense benefit derived from this little rest

 To remove a saggy appearance of the skin about the neck, move the head back and forward; also in a r tary movement, fifty times every night and morning. At the same time. the use of good cream well rubbed in, then wiped off, and the neck bathed in cold water until it glo"s, will add to the appearance.
 There is no better treatment for bringing color and glow to the har than to brush it carefully every night.
 In caring for the complexion, it is we'll to remember the necessity of hanging the face brush in the air and sunshine every day, to destroy any possible germs. In fact, 1t is most necessary to keep all the brushes in an absolutely clean con- dition. The use of borax in the water in which they are washed will have tendency to destroy germs and also keep the bristles stiff.
