EYELASH CREAM

1t has been a long time since I have
printed the formula for an eyelash
tonic Any number of tonics, good
and bad, are on the market; many
are nothing but vaseline, which is of
no use at all, since it is a mineral
product
An eyelash cream must be very
heavy since it must contain nour:sh-
ing oils. Mine, for instance, is made
of
Cocoa butter ......1 dram
ParaWaA 4 drains
Lanoline ..---.---..1 II dram
Oil of sweet almonds, 4 drains
Rose oil ...---....--2 drops
This last is only as perfume, any
other perfumed oil may be substitute
ed. This makes a very thick cream,
hard to rub in until it softens on the
warm skin. Only a little need be
used-Id advise putting it on at
night, for the cream will make the
Aeehes feel heavy and the eyes sleepy.
And in hot weather, a very little
should be rubbed into the 1ashes and
then wiped off the skin, for the
heaviness of the cream will make the
skin perspire.
And don't forget the often-repeat-
ed advice-if you want long thick
lashes, slip them fairly short and
keep them so far a few months, then
let them grow in. This is the best
way to start any treatment.
And if you want dark lashes,
harmless way to stain them is to add
80 grains of peroxide of manganese
to the above formula. But I rarely
advise this. simply because the nat
ura1 color is usually the most becom-
ing A temporary co1oring can be
obtained by using an eyebrow pen

ENGRAVES REPLICA OF
CAPITOL ON PIN HEAD.

Washington, May ia. c. Habicht.
a steel engraver employed in this
city. has hung up his hat in the Hall
of Fame.
After four months of tedious effort
he has just completed an exact re-
plica of the United States Capitol
on an ordinary pin head. Through
a microscope can be seen not only the
columns and he steps. but even the
small windows and the statue on the
dome. Not the most minute detail
escaped Habicht in his representation
of the Capitol on the pin head.

graved United States Capitol" while

have these tools at your disposal that
would be quite impossible otherwise.
An ordinary dish of vegetables or
an inexpensive meat becomes distinc.
tive and attractive if it is garntshed
with attractively cut out pieces Of
vegetables. A single boiled beet,
sliced thin, may be cut into attrac-
tive little shapes by means of these
vegetable cutters to form attractive
garnishing for potato or other salad.
Carrots, potatoes, sliced raw apple
sliced pineapple are among the fruitrj
and vegetables that may be cut bv
these cutters. One set may be bought
for less than a dollar that contains a.
half dozen different shapes, stars.
crescents, roses, etc.
There is a little rotary knife that
can be bought for a small amount
that greatly simplifies the problem of
cutting parsley, celery and other veg
etables. If you want minced vegeta-
bles of different sorts to use in Rus
sian salad dressing a knife of this
sort greatly helps.
There are egg slicers that are used
to cut boiled eggs in eveA slices for
garnishing salads, spinach and other
dishes.

get a living wage-that does not
satisfy him, nor is 1t just nor is il

Yes. There is no other construc.
