Hands After Housework,

A very, very good way to remove the
dirt from the hands after doing house
work is to rub them all over with cold
cream or olive oil before washing
them. 1t will loosen the dirt, and you
will find that it will then come out
quite easily with soap and hot water.
After washing rub in a mixture made
of equal parts Of olive oil. glycerin and
either lemon juice Or cologne. This
will whiten and improve the condition
of your hands. prevent chapping. and

A little salt or vinegar rubbed we'll
into the hands after they have been
for a long time in warm, soapy wa
ter will take away the shriveled look.
