One must also be careful to re-.
sist the temptation to overtax
ones mental and physical strength
after very hot bath. Such bath
acts as powerful stimulus to the
whole nervous system.
The cold bath is also a good
nerve stimulant. This is why il
is SO effective in waking us up
in the morning. Physicians tell Us
that it also trains the heat-regu.

that we are better able to with.
stand exposure to cold. r
But cold baths are not for every
woman. Even l find that l must
use them with great deal Of eau
ton. And many women should
never attempt them except on the
advice Of their physicians.
Cold baths should never be at
all lengthy. To stay in one longer
than minute is dangerous except
in very few exceptional cases.
From ten to thirty seconds will be
found the proper time for all but
the most robust women
When the skin is thoroughly
warm is the only proper time to
take cold bath. The greatest
benefits are derived, and there is
the least danger Of unpleasant aft.

lows Immediately after rising in
the morning or after muscular ex-
ercise or after hot bath.
good share of the tonic ef-
fects of the cold bath are undoubt-
eddy due to the vigorous rundown
with rough towel by which it
should always be followed. except
in warm weather. This promotes a
generous flow of the blood, which
gives your skin a distinct glow.
Unless you get reaction OF this
KIND after a cold bath you should
confine yourself to bathing Of hot
or indifferent temperature.
1t ought not be necessary to re-
mind you that no bath should ever
be taken until at least an hour or
more after meal. Yet frequently
l hear of women who suffer ex.
tremely unpleasant experiences
simply through forgetting this i'm.
portant rule of health.
IL you do not already know
through practical experience or
through your physicians advice or
both, find out at once what sort of
baths are best suited to your indi-
vidual needs. With this knowledge
you will soon find bathing contrib
uting so much to your health,
beauty and peace of mind that you
will look upon the minutes taken
for your frequent tubs or showers
as time exceedingly well spent

NJ Souio 90 ZIG HAIL purpose OF
baths is cleanliness. But the
woman who wants to look
and feel her best will know how
to make them serve many other
highly useful purposes.
Baths of the right sort. taken in

will refresh and restore the wo-
man who is worn out after a long
day Of shopping. They will has
ten the coming of slumber that
would otherwise be delayed for
hours. They will also give just the
added stimulus one often needs to
fit ones self to meet successfully
some unusually strenuous round of
household duties or social activi-
ties.
Physicians are coming more and
more to realize the tonic and medi-
cinal value of baths. In many con-
ditions they prove Of more benefit
than medicine.
Where cleanliness Is the only
purpose to be served the bath
should be neither too hot nor too
cold. The temperature of such a
bath may range from 80 to 80 de-
grees Fahrenheit, according to the
ability of ones skin to bear the wa
ter's heat. This form of Bathing
has neither stimulating nor de-
pressing effect and for some people
1t is the only one to be recon-
mended.
Very hot baths are sometimes of
great benefit, but they should sell
dom be used alone. They have a
decidedly enervating effect and I'M
less the greatest care is used they
make you "catch cold"
The possible dangers of a hot
bath can be easily avoided by fol-
lowing 1t with cold plunge or If
that is too strenuous, a cold
shower.
For the great majority of people
both men and women-this pro-
cedure is probably the safest and
most beneficial form Of bathing.
The hot water cleanses the body's
surface far better than that of in
different temperature and the slim
ulating shock of the cold can be
better borne after the body has
been thoroughly warmed.
But there is one important warn
ing to be sounded in connection
with hot baths, particularly IL ones
skin shows tendency to excessive
dryness. This is that too frequent
or too prolonged hot baths are very
apt to remove too much oil from
the skin.

q oME uay soon you may see
-. small object flying about the
room, and you will say to
yourself, Dear me, l must put
away my Winter furs, for there's
q moth" But it is sad to know
that Mr.. Moth has been in our
homes quite while before we see
the tiny fly fluttering about. This
tan-colored, humble visitor does no
damage to our clothes and furs;
the damage is already done by the
small, crawling larva, or worm,
which the fluttering fly laid among
our Winter underwear!
The time to prevent moths in
clothing is before the moth egg is
laid. This means that long before
warm weather arrives the wise
woman will take steps to prevent
moths from breeding. For thew.
like other insects, prefer warm
dark, unmolested places. They
abhor sunlight, they cannot live in
the cold and they Just can't bear
being disturbed.
Therefore, the preventive meas

Ing all the things the moths do not
like.
The first step is to bring Winter
garments out into the bright sun
and expose them there as long as
possible. These bright Spring
days are Just fitted for giving our
wooden clothes an airing. Winter
coats, dresses, furs, blankets-out
they all must come.

is the best disinfectant known.
Let them be blown by the air,
which will shake GU. the moth eggs
If there are any or chill the adult
moths with the nipping wind. And
while the clothes are hanging on
the line let us give tho closet from
Which they were taken a thorough
lansing.
Brush down the walls, or, pref
JTably, wipe them with water TO
which strong solution Of carbolic
or chloride is added. Let the
closet remain open in a well-ven-
tilated room. If it is a hat box or
a drawer, give 1t the same treat
ment. Sometimes 1t is easier to
use an atomizer full Of naphtha or
benzine to spray the closet with,
being sure there is plenty of fresh
air and no danger of fire.
Any piece Of fur aud many kinds
of wooden materials may be dipped
or brushed with gasoline and then
hung out on the line. Gasoline is
one of the best agents for killing
the eggs or larvae of such insects
as moths, mosquitoes or our IN

The modern fdea is to have sepa-
rate bags or compartments lined
with tar or cedar paper and lay
away each garment separately.
Such bags come in ell lengths,
short ones suitable for sweaters
and jackets, ETC., long ones for
coats and dresses. Each bag Is
fitted with hanger, so that the
garment keeps nice shape. Ten
or twelve of these garments in
their respective bags take I'D no
. more room than the average trunk.

and to lay articles away in the
small separate drawers. An ordj-
