London, jan 24.-In reckoning ex-
cess profits which the shipping COM

Play takes the amount set aside by
thirty ompanies-namely 23 pounds

The opening of Japan has brought
many new trades, but it has driven
others out of existence. One handi-
craft which is making a long but a
losing fight is that of making fude or
writing brushes. 1t might have been
expected to increase, seeing that edu-
cation is ten times as prevalent as in
the old days, but the steel pen and the
lead pencil are formidable competitors
and, with their vulgar efficiency, are
gradually making the use of fude obso-
lete. In the primary schools young
Japan is taught to WELD the brush,
but in the middle schools they care
but little for the elegance of the Chi
nese style of writing, and the modern
steel pen is much in evidenee.-Japan

THE DOCTOR TELLS
BATH SECRETS
An Expert Lays Down a Regime
For the Business Woman-Ex-
c%ellent Recipe For Making Oat-
meal Bags For the Toilet.

~ GOD grooming, without correct
w bathing, is almost an impossl-
N bility. The society woman can
battle when she likes. The
business woman must arrange her
baths so that they will not interfere
with her business hours. And both
women must be careful to select a bath
best suited to their physical and nerv-
Gus condition as well as their occupa-
ton.
All baths are not cleansing. This is
particularly true of the cold bath. The
woman with an oily skin gets absolute
ly no results from q cold bath, and
when one has a skin disease, like acne,
eczema, etc, the cold bath irritates and
increases it.
The sponge as an aid in bathing has
been generally condemned by latter
day physicians and beauty specialists,
as 1t is said to harbor germs and the
skin eXcretions. Fastidious women
now use a bath mitten of a porous tex
ture or loose woven Turkish toWeling
in the place of the sponge, and unless
the skin is tender a camels hair flesh
brush can be used. There is also what
is known as the air bath, which can
using a basin or small tin tub instead
of the regulation bathtub and sponging
off in q room flooded with sunshine and
fresh air.
A good regime for baths for the bust
ness woman is this: Three times a
week at night take either a tepid or a
warm bath, using a good soap or soap
powder. The tepid bath ranges in tenn
perature from So to 90 degrees, the
warm bath between 90 and 90. This
temperature can be a~scertained by the
use of a thermometer, which can be
bought at any first class drug store or
hardware store. Both the tepid and
warm baths act as a sedative. When
the water is below So or above 90 it
stimulates or shocks and is not an aid
to sleep. If a business woman, if the
skin is very oily, a pinch of borax, a
few drops of benzoin or toilet ammo
mia may be poured into the bath. High
ly perfumed and colored soaps should
US ahOlueu, duu d pure ullS VI CuSllle
soap which you can taste with the
tongue without feeling a biting sensa
ton is the one you want to use for
bathing purposes.
When the skin is much irritated by
contact with dust and CRIME use oat
meal bath bags instead of soap. Buy
cheesecloth in quantities and cut the
bags about four inches square, fill them
loosely with the following mixture and
eve use a bag but once, throwing 1t
away after once used:
Oatmeal, five pounds; powdered for
entine orris root, one pound; almond
meal, n pound; old CASTLE soap.
scraped to a powder, half a pound.
Mix together and fill the bags.
Then every morning let the business
woman take a tepid bath before break
fast and if greatly exhausted sprinkle
into this water sea salt, which she can
buy at any drug store.

Oriental Motifs.

Embroidery is the most favored
decorative trim for one piece frocks,
and it is executed in fine braids, In
metallic threads, chenille and beads,
either round beads or those of tubular
form. Oriental and Egyptian motifs
are preferred, and they ornament the
corsage. the girdle and the pocket
flaps. Occasionally the design extends
from the bodice down over the front
breadth of the skirt, giving the effect
of Louis XIV. waistcoat.
