III. corrset Introduction.

In the case Of introductions nothing
can be more simple or more correct
than the form Of Miss A, let me In
troduce Mr.. B." and still this Is en-
tirely the proper thing. The form,
however, means that the lady must
permit the man to be introduced to
her, not she presented to him This
should appeal to the sense Of propriety
In any one, 1t would appear, II a mo-
ment's thought Is given to the matter
at all
The younger should always be pre-
scented to the elder, except in the case
Of a young lady and an elderly man.
Should the man, however, be promi-
nent In any way 1t is entirely correct
to present q young lady to him. saying,
Mr.. Blank, I want you to know my
friend Miss F."
It Is the very simplest thing to re-
member that an unmarried woman II
presented TO the married one, a very
young girl 10 any ladies that are older,
q man to his hostess and also In such
q case to his host, whether the latter
be the elder or not, Just because he Is
the one who Is entertaining.

How to Wash the Hands.


There Is q right and wrong way Of
doing everything. and this maxim ap-
plies as much to washing the hands &C
TO anything else.
Choose your soap carefully. 1t must
be good and pure and not too highly
scented A little borax or ammonia IN
the water win serve the double pur-
pose OF sOftening It and assisting to re-
move stains
Every time you wash your hands
wash them thoroughly, taking care
that the lines on the palm are perfectly
cIeansed. II this Is neglected the lines
VIII become coarser and deeper, which
Is Just what we are most anxious 10
avoid
It IL very important indeed that the
hands should be thoroughly dried and
that they should not be exposed either
TO cold or the heat Of the fire tmme-
diateIy after being washed
II they are left with a little damp
ness on them you are encouraging The

Discussions Ar Tahoo.

II Is not wise to be % thin skinned
as not 70 be able to listen to an argu-
ment In which your pet theories are at
tackled without getting angry. But
there Il q limit 20 all things, and the
person who wantonly attacks your
friends Is guilty Of q gross breach Of
good manners, to say tie least An
expression Of personal obluion may be
forgiven, because every oSe has a right
TO It, but no one has a right TO thrust
his opinions upon others at every op-
portunity.
In all good society discussion q
politics, religion and other such sub
poets Is forbidden by general consent
II has almost come to the point that
the present war Is not to be talked
about except among friends, as In q
general gathering there are certain to
be persons who would feel strongly
upon the subject Of his own particular
country.
There are several things TO be TO
membered, one Of them that very little
Is known as to what Is really happen
ing in the war zones, and another that
each country involved In the war has
an opinion as to the cause Of 1t that Is
entirely different from that Of every
other country. The only subject upon
which all are united Is that the sftua-
ton is deplorable In whatever light It
Il viewed and that II cannot be made
any better by unwise discussion
The very fact that each person feels
30 strongly about It Is evidence that
It Is not a safe subject for converse
ton and that good taste will put It
among those not to be discussed except
among friends who understand one an
other well enough to forgive any ex-
traVagant expressions OF opinion.

The business woman has no time 70,
morning prinking. As one young won,
an puts IT, Before go TO bed al
night have TO be dressed for the next
day." She does not spend more thar
an hour In the evening over her toilet
but In addition she spends an hour
once a week at a first class beauty
parlor. One week she has a shampoo
and scalp treatment, another facial
massage and manicure treatment; on
another visit her feet are put In order
and 50 on.
She takes her warm, cleansing bath
at night, but before this she cleanses
her face and neck thoroughly with q
good cleansing cream, then anoints Il
with massage cream, which for the
moment she leaves on the face.
Grooming the Hair.
She lets down her hair, brushes II
thoroughly and leaves it pinned up
lightly, but sufficiently high to escape
a wetting In the bath. Then she files
her nails and jumps In her bath, which
Is soft and fragrant with soap powder.
She does not allow the water to touch
her face or neck. but she uses a flesh
brush vigorously over her body and
scrubs her finger nails and toe nails
before she empties the tub and rtnses
OF wen with a fine spray. This spray
or thorough rinse is absolutely neces-
sary. for. after the soapy water has
done its cleansing purpose. It should
be wen rinsed on the skin
MassasinS the Face.
When she returns to her toilet table
the heat Of the bath has started a mild
perspiration on scalp and face, and
the massage cream that she has LEFT
on her face has been largely absorbed
She gives her scalp FIVE minute mas
sage, and, slightly wetting her hair,
she rolls the locks about the face and
nape Of the neck over kid rollers for
the night The skin Of the face being
now well fabricated, a few minutes
facial massage quite removes the tired
lines Of the day, and she finishes with
a brisk douche Of cold water.
Caring For the Nails.
The skin about the nails has been
softened In the bath, and a few min
uteS work with a NAH stick, followed
by little polishing, Is sufficient to put
them In good condition Nails that are
never neglected are not difficult TO
keep In order.

A Convertible Bedroom.

As the children grew up an extra bed
room was needed occasionally to accom-
modate the holiday influx OF youthful
guests. There was no room available
except the one long used for . sewing
room, and which felt was more neces-
sary to the home in that capacity than
a. guest room.
At holiday time, however, 1t became
apparent that something must be done
in consequence of which the "convertl-
BILE ROOM was evolved, which gives US 0
properly equipped bedroom when need
ed, and convenient sewing room at
other times.
The furnishings of the sewing room
consisted Of q drop-head sewing ma
chine, q large oval mirror, gilt framed, q
folding sewing table, q round wicker
center table, one green reed rocker, an
arm chair and straight back chair Of
oak, and, last but not least, peggy"
the dressmaker's form. The walls are
tinted warm tan, lit is a north room)
and there are white shades at the win
dows. The woodwork is white, with q
pine floor stained tobacco brown.
To these l added sanitary iron cot,
which opens out into full size bed, but
when covered with spread and pillows
makes a slightly and comfortable couch.
Pillows, sheets and comforts were on
hand, which provided for the sleeping
accommodations.
There still remained the question of a
dressing table. l could not afford the
needed expense Of dresser, neither
would there have been room for that
and the sewing machine too. After
some thought made the machine do
double duty.
Being of the drop-hsad variety, false
top was made from packing case boards,
a little over yard long and eighteen
ends and along the back to keep it from
slipping when laid over the machine top.
To the edge of this board was tackled a
curtain of cretonne, laid on in plaits. and
falling t. the floor so as TO completely
conceal the machine. A dresser cover
of The cretonne, with frill, finishes the
dresser top, and when this is laid IN
place over the machine. which sits be-
meath the large mirror, it has every ap-
pearauce of dressing table. The neces-
sary toilet articles in place add much to
the illusion.
Three.inch bands of the cretonne trim
the plain white cheesecloth curtains
very pret,ily, bedspread and table run
ners being trimmed to match.
Now when the sewing room IL needed
as bedroom, Peggy and the folding
table are whisked into an adjoining
closet; the rug is unrolled and spread,
books, magazines and writing materials
taking the place of thread and thimbles
ON the round table; the dresser top laid
over sewing machine and curtain adjust
ed in twinkling; and the folding bed
made up, when dainty and comfortable
bedroom awaits an appreciative guest.
