Delightful Perfumes
ny LILLIAN RUSSELL

The ambitious young society woman
in her amateur way makes herself at
tractive, she imagines. by scenting her
person with pungent sachets Of violet
or heliotropc, which are little too
expressive of a desire to please.
The trained belle bathes her face
and neck in water which a7few drops of
bcnzoin tincture or dash of rose or
orange flower water makes agreeable,
and you approach her finding n deli
cate sweetness pervading her presence
Her garments are perfumed by sachets
lying among the folds of her gowns
in tho wardrobe, not worn with them,
which gives them the evanescent
charm of odor which comes and goes
on tho air like music" rs Lord Bacon
says
At a dinner no perfumes should he
worn. Odorous flowers should not be
allowed to mix with the SAVIOR of food,
for the smell of baker meat yulsariZes
that OF flowers. But perfume should
accompany the finger bowl at least n
rose geranium leaf. or a sprig of lemon
rerbena,, on sweet briar, to leave the
scent upon the fingers.
Perfumes are agreeable at the thea

a watt of violet, or white rose, from
the rich gowns of lovely women part

i L.: In order to keep the face cleans

warm water and Il good pure soap at
least once a day. Soap and water are
necessary to perfect cleanliness. and
without 1t you cannot have clear.
smooth. firm skin. Twice q week is
not often enough to wash the face.
Never use hot water on your face. 1t
is too drying to the skin. Use water
warm enough TO BIO pleasant, and after
washing with this dash cold water on
tho face. Tho cold water tends to
close the pores and makes the flesh

The wrongful Use of Anticipates.

An antiseptic chemical has little or

home. Even though only simple non
poisonous substances are chosen. there
is, after all, no occasion for the daily
or frequent application of such sub
stances in the course Of tho toilet.

dentrinces are delusion and snare;
they do not prevent tooth decay. Clean
liness. plain physical cleanliness of the
mouth, is the only practical way OF
avoiding deleterious' effects OF bacterial
activity there.
Absolute physical cleanliness means
ascpsls-freedom from germs. 1t is
the moving idea In surgery. medicine
sanitation and dentistry to. day. Not
chemical treatment OF the tissues. but
physical cleansing. Keep clean. DON'T
allow dirt to accumulate and then apply
chemical 9ermicides or antiBeptics to
the dirt. A normal, clean mucous cavity
requires no treatment OF any kind.
