HUMOR IN BUSINESS.

There are a few old mossbacks who still cling to the notion that women have no humor, just as you can find people who will argue against the higher education and work outside the home.
 But to get down to facts, do girls realize what a valuable asset a sense of hunor is in business life? It not only keeps them in a sane and sound state of mind and body, where without it they might go to pieces, but it helps them to under stand the people with whom they come into contact and there is nothing that assists so much as the understanding of anothers point of view and idiosyncrasies.
 The power to "catch on" to what the boss is driving at is largely question of humor, serious as it is. The deadly serious person cannot make the necessary allowances for personality and cannot see the little congregations or possibly the touch of teasing. The American business man deals largely in humor. It is natural to him.
 Running and larking, or the abili- ty to tell a funny story is not the kind of humor alluded to. Humor is an ability to see all round subject and to be amused even when the game goes against you. If a girl can take a call-down with sense of humor she Is helping her self. It isn't meant she ought to grin at it-that might have dire re-

STIMULATION FOR THE SKIN.

once in d while our skin needs stimulation just as much as we do once in a while, remember
 Therefore. in order to bring life and glow 10 your skin, when it may be particularly dead and yeIIowish. it is permissible to apply little artificial stimulation.
 One way of liyening up your skin, after a fatisuing day, is to rub 1t rather hard with rough fabric Turkish towel Do not rub so tha, it is painful, but until you really feel refreshed. Do not confine this odd massage to the cheeks alone, but apply il to the forehead, the chin. the neck and the shoulders Be careful n rubbing around the eyes, not to press hard upon the eyeballs, for any undue pressure is bad for them.
 The batting massage is another way of bringing the glow 10 your face To do this, if possible, frs bathe the face in hot water. Then, with the fingers, slap or pat the face with rather sharp stroke Do this while the face is still wet
 A famous doctor once said that no treatment was absolutely safe in the fullest sense of the wora He explained that in some way every medicine or drug or treatment was likely to harm one but that the benefit incurred in most cases so far outshines the harm, that the ef- feet is a beneficial one.
 Natures methods are the best in any case The more closely we can follow them, the better we shall be for it. The milder a treatment is. the more effective in the long run, and the more safely to be in dulged in.
