Of Baden. the regulations of which are
regarded as being very we'll worked
out. varies. according to the zone. from
three-quarters to four-ffths of the total

In other cities the regulations vary.

Here are some suggestions for car.
ing for the face:
Wash the face daily in very hot wa

face and neck with soap jelly and
rinsing 1t of afterward with a bath

Let no soap remain Upon the skin.
but be n that it is removed by using
rs many waters upon it as one has
patience to apply.
After q thorough washing the skin
must have a little cream or a little
skin food massaged into It.
Each night before retiring take q
bowl Of warm water. a cake. Of pure
soap, preferably unscented. and a soft
complexion brush and wash upward
and outward until your face feels fresh
and glowing. Then rinse all the soap
of and dash with cold water and dry
well. Once q week steam the face BY
applying to It heavy towels wrung out
Of very hot water to which you have
added a pinch OF borax.
When the face ts very red discontin-
ne the application Of hot cloths and
with.the finger tips work in some good
cold cream. Rub always upward and
outward. Use plenty OF cream. Then
take a soft towel and wipe out the
cream and dirt which win come with

FOR THE BouDoIR.

How to Keep the Hands From Chap
ping During the Winter.
The first chilly day is the day to be-
gin to wage a war against chapped
hands. If you can keep your hands
from becoming chapped in the transit
tional weather between warm and cold,
you will have little difficulty with
them later on, for it is in the first cold
days that they are especially sensi-
tive to cold.
Chapped hands are almost always
caused by insufficient drying after
washing or perhaps the water was icy
cold and very hard. or used too hot.
Both extremes are bad for the skin.
To preserve the hands in good condi-
ton in cool weather they should.
whenever possible. be washed in tepid
water, and If this is softened by a tea
spoonful of borax SO much the better.
Be sure to use a soap of good quail
ity and when drying the hands take
the precaution of rubbing each finger
separately. If the hands are rubbed
owe once a day with a slice of lemon
and a little cold cream or IL mutton
tallow is rubbed into them thoroughly
before going to bed at night there will
be little danger of the skin becoming
chapped or rough.
An excellent and delightfully."- fra
grant cold cream for the hands. or the
face either. can be made as follows:
Take eight ounces of almond oil. one
and one-quarter of an ounce of sperma-
ceti. n and %one-quarter of an ounce
of white wax. Shred the wax and the
spermaceti finely and put In a china
marmalade jar. A small enamel ware
saucepan will do. Stand it In another
saucepan about a third full Of boiling
water. Keep this simmering until the
ingredients are entirely melted and
then add a few drops of lavender oil
and pour into small china pots. The
little pots in which cheese often comes
are excellent for the purpose. The
preparation can be used as soon az 1t
is cool and will keep for a long time.
Another invaluable lotion for hands
that are inclined to be red In winter.
even though they do not chap badly. is
made of lemon juice. eau de cologne
and glycerin. equal parts Of each.
This can also be used for chapped
hands.

by Frank Rooster. author of City Plan
ming and Maintenance"
In considering the various problems
Of traffic to be solved the principles
OF city planning should guide the
work. The purpose of the city should
be kept in view and carried out in the
best possible manner.
A city is in reality a kind of appara-
tus Or mechanism consisting Of fixed
places in which to live. work and be
amused, with means Of access thereto
and means of transportation Ut prod
ucts to and from desired points.
, In a city the arrangement Of high
ways must be such that the citizens
who traverse them in great numbers
may be enabled to reach their destina-
tons with the greatest possible dis
patch. for q large part of the time Of
the public Is consumed in merely going
from place to place. The daily move.
ments Of the population should thus be
studied with the utmost thoroughness
and the streets laid out so that access
tC the different parts Of the city may
be had from all the other parts in the
most direct manner possible.
A question Of great Importance to
the civic engineer in the laying out Of
such a plan is that Of grades. as many
cities are built on hills Of greater or
less height and the arrangement OF
