Reautv Gloves.

Beauty gloves are useful adjuncts to
the toilet, especially in the spring. when
delicate skins are likely to chap and
roughen. One sort IL made of rubber
and by simply keeping In the natural
oils and moisture Of the skin. which
would otherwise evaporate and be
rubbed off. whiten and soften the skin.
Another sort is to wear with medi-
Gated cream. This style Is made Of
kid, in elbow and wrist length. aud
can be worn while shopping and walk
ing as well as while resting and sleep
ing.
An old pair Of kid gloves, wota at
night after an astringent has been
applied. will do wonders in keeping the
hands small and also in breaking down
the fatty tissues. a
However. if the bones are large.
reducing the flesh will only succeed in
making the bones look, more prominent
and the hands look old and even
larger. 1t would be better to pass the
time making them soft and white and
in keeping the nails well manlcured.

Lying fat gu your back on the door
Is a most excellent thing for your tig.
ure. When you want to rest you
should never curl up on a sofa with
cushions, but you should always lie
quite nat, II possible. with your hands
above your head. This expands your
chest and hollows your back and makes
your figure grow into good lines.
1t 10 q splendid thing to lie like this
for few minutes every morning and
do deep breathing exercises. Begin
with your arms at your sides. holding
them straight; bring them up till the
tips Of the fingers touch. When they
are extended above the head you
breathe In. and then bring them down
again as you breathe out Each breath
should take as much time as you spend
in counting four slowly.
II you are inclined to be too stout
you can reduce by the following exer-
else: Lie quite fat on your back with
your hands ON your sides. Bend your
legs up slowly into what Is the kneelng
position when you are upright and let
them slowly 60 down again.
Then do breathing exercises. trying
while you do them to draw in the part
Of your figure below your waist as
much as you can. Then do the leg ex-
ercise again. and so on.
These two exercises together are
splendid for your digestion and general
health. Besides improving your fig

Easter Emblems.

Many of the emblems and Observ-
anccs OF the feast of the resurrection
are remnants of the spring festival of
q pagan period. Eastre or Oestre was
the spring goddess OF northern Europe
and the rabbit was associated With
her. The egg was an emblem Of the
resurrection in pagan times. With the
spread of Christianity the customs and
emblems Of heather festivals were
often continued where a Christian
feast was coincident with them, as
where the gayety and license Of the
Roman saturnaia were grated upon
the Christian Christmas. The rabbit
and the egg being thus associated with
the spring feast OF the resurrection.
Teutonic folklore combined them by rs.
serting that the Easter rabbit brought
/ the Easter eggs. just as the stork
brought the babies. Many chiId's
first recollection Of the brightly color
ed eggs is of finding them in nest OF
moss out in the garden. with the
understanding that the rabbit had
brought them. So we give Br'er Rab.
bit the same standing toward Easter
that Santa Claus has toward Christ
mas-a jolly little myth that adds to
our pleasures and gayety without being
permitted to obscure the greater and
more important observances Of Z
Christian feast. "
