ASALT RUB WHEN YOU ARE TIRED OUT

preference-in an earthen jar, and
pour enough water on 1t to produce
sort of slush. but not enough to dis
solve the salt
This should then be taken up in
handfuls and rubbed briskly over the
entire person, but anyone in ordinary
health can do 1t for himself very sat
iefactorily.
This being done, the next thing is a
thorough douching of clear water,
preferably cold. and a brisk rubbing
with dry towel.
The effect of elation, freshness and
renewed life Is Immediately felt, and
the satiny texture of the skin and
increased clearness and brightness of
the complexion swell the testimony
In favor of the salt rub.

Stone Microbes

The decay of building stones, ac-
cording to more than one authority
is not due to wind action or other
surface influence, but to internal
disintegration resembling wood rot,
and this is ascribed by some to a low
organism like the fungi and the molds
that cause the decay OF vegetable
substances.
A cure has been found for the stone
disease, or at least form OF treat
ment that diminishes its ravages. The
stones are treated with germicides,
the best of which appears TO be a
creosote.

Fashionettes

While black and white continue ia

touches of bright color which are de-

Vests of lace and linen are modish
on frocks of velvet.
Uncurled ostrich feather fringe is a
modish trimming.
PRINCES of silk and beads are also
fashionable.
Fur bands are edged with single
line of jet or colored beads.
Collars of lingerie are finished with
a tiny edging of fur.
Street frocks are trimmed with wide
Silks DraidS anQ many Oh Tie JdchetS

Boleros of beaded net, velvet and

Imagination

is the experts in reverie who are
conquering the territory of the I'M
known. The masters of imaginative
power are the only teachers worth
listening to, and their message is the
only message we need consider seri-
ously. Most of us are sick and tired
trying to balance life on tight wire.
We have too often listened to teach
ers who measure everything in
heaven and on earth by the rule OF
three. Our day is shut up within
twenty -four hours; our vision trimmed
by the sky line; our life reeled off In
heartbeats.-The Popular Magazine.

How to Freeze Ice Cream

Use coarse rock salt.
Pound the ice in cloth or bag
until nearly as fine as the salt
In the bottom of the freezer tub
put four heaping saucers of ice,
then one of salt; then fill up with
three of ice and one of salt.
Use a stick to pack the ice and
salt down.
The reason cream is coarse is
too much salt is used.
BY using this proportion cream
made at II o'clock will keep until
in the. evening without repacking,
as there is not enough salt used to
melt the ice too rapidly.
Turn the crank as long as pos
sible before taking out the dasher.
Never fill the freezer interior
more than three-quarters full.
All fear of salty waters spelling
cream while standing Is removed
il buttered writing paper, buttered
side out, Is fitted over the contents.
When the cream is frozen put a
piece OF old carpet or blanket over
the freezer to exclude the air and
stand in a cool place.
Now, then, you may go ahead.
I'd advise you to make plain va
nilla ice cream first, and try the
fancy kinds later, when you have
gained a little experience.
Apricot ice is easy to make.
You might try this recipe:
