Home Manicuring Lessons
DR.. VIM. K. KORONY
The Care of the Cuticle

You have undoubtedly noticed unsightly.
of the nails, and have wondered how this
overhanging cuticle growing around the base
could be removed without luxury. The cuticle
protects the base of the nail, and the old
fashioned and injurious method of cutting
and scraping removes both the dead and
healthy cuticle, leaving the delicate base un-
protected. This very often causes soreness
or even infection; besides, cutting the cuti-
Gle makes it very hard and calous. Over
growing, ragged cuticle should be removed
and this is easily done by applying Simplex
Cuticle Remover. This instantly softens it
so that the dead. overgrowing skin may be
easily removed with your manicure stick.
Being a physician and chemist, l have
made exhaustive research for a preparation
that contains acid and is perfectly harm
less, to remove dead cuticle safely and
quickly. The result of my work is the re-
nowned Simplex Cuticle Remover l have
also perfected other Simplex Mancuring
Preparations for home Simplex Nail
Whitener for whitening and bleaching the
nail tips; Simplex Nail Polish in cake paste
or powder form for giving the nails a quick
and lasting luster. Simplex Manicuring
Preparations are inexpensive and are sold
at all first-class toilet goods counters. You
can also purchase complete manicuring
outfit of these preparations.
My next lesson will appear in early is
sue of this paper. If you confronted
with any particular obstacle regarding your
nails write me and l shall gladly advise you.

Demand for Hood and Cup
Piles Tires and Service
Given as Cause

A scene of activity was observed yes
terday about the new place auto row
being occupied temporarily by the Muir
phy-Jones company. ENGAGEMENTS were
being made and new stock being checked
in.
The tire and accessory business in win
ter and fall is always good on account
of the large amount of work done on old
cars during this period getting them
ready for the spring running. Every
car has to have good tires during the
winter months to stand the unusual de-
mands placed upon them by the ele-
ments. This, according to Mr.. Murphy's
statement accounts for the unusually
large amount of tire business now com
ing in.
1t is expected that an announcement
will be made within the week by this
company that will be of general interest
to all automobile owners in this district.

1.-THE nineteenth year of Ensley's oldest
club, the Thread of the Story, which was
iorganized November g. 1898, in Pratt City,
by Mrs. A. ]. Riley and Mrs. Frank Holt.
There being very little social life in the
district at that time the club members
carried their sewing and worked while
one member read to the meeting from a
choice book of the times, hence the origin
of the title of the club.
About seven years ago when the de-
mand for better informed women came
the fancy work and love story were laid
aside and earnest study was taken up.
Literature, history ard drama have each
claimed a part of enthusiastic research
work with the result that the members OF
this club are well informed on all late
and classic literary gems, all ages of the
drama and epochs of history. This year
the programme committee, composed of
Mrs. A. G. Overton, Mrs. W. L. Turnip-
seed and Mrs. w. l. Bufgn, have ar.
ranged an interesting year book which
