Softening Rough Hands
IS r WONDER what I can do to

ct WONDER what can do to

L AGAIN." asked tired-looking,
pretty little woman, as she pulled OIL
her gloves. Positively, I'm ashamed
to show them in public. don't feel
like a lady since I've been doing my
own housework."
Its easy enough to keep them
smooth and white, my DEAR" counseled
her friend. "You need not take time
from your work, only learn to DO the
work without harmfng the skin OF
the hands.
"For instance, wash your dishes IN
scalding hot water, using string
mop, lifting them out quickly ana
putting them on a wood rack to drain
themselves dry Pare vegetables in
water, to avoid staining the fingers,
and keep a jar Of cold cream and
half a lemon on the shelf above the
sink, so that any stains can be rubbed
off with lemon juice as soon as you
are done work. When you have any
tasks that mean keeping the hands
in water any length of time, rub cold
cream-or pure lard, II you're out OF
the cream-into the hands first. This
fills up the pores, and prevents the
water soaking in, swelling and dry
ing out the skin. You can scrub as
easily with pair Of rubber gloves
on as not.
After you have had your hands In
water a long time, like on wash days,
rub cold cream all over the hands
and wrists as soon as you have fin-
ished. This will overcome the harm
the excess Of water has done. Rub
the cream into the nails too, as the
water will dry them and cause the
ridges you complain of. And If your
hands get into very bad state, mas.
sage them well with cold cream be-
fore you go to bed, and put on an
old loose pair Of gloves to sleep In.
This way, you see, you avoid making
the sheets greasy, and keep supply
of the softening cream against the
hands all night. BY morning the
hands will have absorbed it all, and
regained their softness and white
ness.

Totally Destroyed by Fire.
News from Cedar Rapids, which ap-
pears in more detail on one of the
Iowa pages Of this issue, tells of the
total loss by fire late Monday of the

The loss, as reported from Cedar
Rapids. is $4,000 with insurance Of
$4,000. 1t Is said, however, that the
church could not be duplicated today
for less than $4,000.
Rev. Mr.. MCGEE had a serious per-
sonal loss in damage to his library and
manuscripts which were contained in
the pastors study in the church. Many
of the books were badly water soaked

saved in their damaged form.

TEST RUN A SUCCESS
Ward l.. Mack Returns From Chicago
After Plotting Car.

Ward L. Mack. y. Shore dr., re-
turned to South Bend Sunday after
trip to Chicago. in which he drove
a fve-passenger Franklin sedan car
on the last leg Of a trial trip from
New York to Chicago, which started
at O'Clock Wednesday morning. Mr..
Mack and Ferdinand Jehle, official A.
A. A. observer, left this city at 11:l5
O'Clock Friday night and arrived in
Chicago at sos o'clock Saturday
morning.
When the seal on the oil tank was
broken i'm Chicago, it was found that
only one gallon and y ounces of lu-
brcating oil were used in the jour
ney. The car test is considered
great success on account of the fact
that the car was 6S hours on the trip
instead of the 80 hours originally
planned. The car went so miles out
of its way i'm Ohio and 100 miles in
Indiana, making it impossible to make
the trip on one gallon of oil.
No accidents or unusual occur
rences marked the run from South
Bend 10 Chicago. Mr.. Mack drove by
way Of Michigan City
