HANDS REQUIRE MUCH CARE
Woman's A~ttraetIveness Depends a
Great Deal on Their Dainty and
Proper Appearance.


Beautiful hands are a sign OF good
breeding, It is said, and certain it is
that no one who neglects her hands
can expect them to look well. Only
regular attention and steady are
bring forth any results In beautifying
the hands. The girl who works for
her living need not despair, however,
for IL she will devote a few moments
each night to her hands they will look
almost as well as those of the lady Of
leisure.
Be careful FIRST OF all as to how the
hands are washed-in tepid water is
the most satisfactory, for it is not too
cold to emove the dirt and not too
hot to redden the flesh. Constantly
changing soap is very bad for the skin.
A good soap should be selected and be
used regularly without change. Be
sure that all the soap is of the hands,
then dry thoroughly, 81 that the flesh
is not left damp and moist.
Once a month is none too often to
go to a professional m~anicurist, but by
watching attentiYely how the work is
done. you may be able to do your
manicuring at home the rest OF the
time. The monthly visit will just
serve to keep the nails shaped rightly
If you do them yourself once or twice
a week. Invest in a good nail file,
some emery boards, a cuticle scissors,
a nail bleach, an orange stick, a pol
ish and some powdered pumice stone.

MuNITIoN MAKER SAYS

". .. 10 PREPARING
BY Pae. and Int'I News Service.
ATLANTA, Ga, Feb. 14.-Although
little is being said in the newspapers
the United States is not resting on its
arms in the matter of getting pre-
pared for war, according to G. H. Lind
ley, and NJ. p. Barrett who have re-
turned home after working several
weeks at Hopewell, Va.
These men stopped at Lieutenant w.
A. Hodgman's gun exhibit on the
ground floor of the Federal building,
pulled out some gun cotton and pro-
ceeded to tell spectators what can be
done with the South's cotton crop.
Mr.. Lindley took a small pinch of
gun cotton from a brown paper wrap
ping. placed it on the mnrble window
sill and touched it off with a match.
Th. gun cotton gave lille puff and
nothing was left except the spectators,
who continued to discuss the situation.
Mr.. Lindley said he was not afraid
of gun cotton If II was not tied down
TO anything or cooped. up. For in
stance, he would not think of sitting
down in a street car with a pound In
his pistol pocket. for the friction
might send him through the top of the
car and hang him on the wires.
THE South has a wonderful chance
to make lot more money out of its
cotton crops" said Mr.. Lindley. "Eu-
rope takes a bale for each explosion
OF howitzer or big cannon"
I'VE may soon need all we have for
our own uses, for that matter. The
government is working night and day
making a new big gun at Washington
and turning out ships at the various
navy yards. We are fast getting pre-
pared, but little is being said about
It."
Mr.. Lindley and Mr.. Barrett helped
run the machinery at the Hopewell
plant of the Dupont Powder Company.
They expect to return in few weeks.
They said the company is paying high
for all kinds of labor brick masons
getting as much as SO a day.
