NEW YORK, June IA vigorous

Rails likewise were in vigorous de-

MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

thorough and the water must always
be tepid. The final rinse should con-
tain the juice Of half lemon in a
quart Of water.
The egg mask is very useful in cor
recting enlarged pores and wrinkles In
rather coarse, oily skins. 1t Is q little
drastic for tender skins. Before the
mask is applied the face must, of course,
be thoroughly cleansed, first with cream
and afterward with soap and water.
As in the case of the egg shampoo, the
yolkS and whites are beaten separately.
The whites are applied first and allowed
to dry. A second coating is then
painted on. The third coating Is of the
yolkS, and Is put on when the whites
have dried. The action Of the egg is
strongly astringent. When applying 1t
over wrinkles the skin must be held
smooth while the mask is drying over
that spot. If this Is not don6. the
creases will become deeper. After the
mask has been on for a quarter of an
hour wash it off with tepid water. Do
not use hot or very warm water, as that
will harden the egg and make 1t diff
cult to remove. If the skin is sensitive,
cold cream or olive oil may be used to
loosen the egg. This treatment may be
taken once a week.
Whites of eggs beaten very light may
be used to give dry shampoo to very
oily blond hair. Use the whites of two
eggs and add half a teaSpoonful of salt
to them. Rub the mixture through
the hair. When it has dried brush it
out well. This treatment, of course,
cannot take the place of the regular
soap and water shampoo, 3ut it may be
used In emergencies or between sham
pooS when the hair becomes too oily.
The egg white makes it fluffy and light.

Out of Date.

There's sorrow in the Blue Front
store, q mournful atmosphere; the
owner chortles never more, but sheds
a furtive tear. It's too old-fashioned
to survive, 1t makes no brisk appeal,
and soon the sheriff will arrive, and
place thereon his seal. A few old gray
boards teeter in, and sit around the
stove, and buy a f1shhook or a pin, q
nutmeg or a Glove. They fill the place
with stogie smoke. and ancient tales
relate. and this offends the cultured
folk, the people up to date. In modern
stores there are no chairs where an
Client men may rest, and thresh again
bygone affairs, and spring the wheeZe
and Jest. There Is no stove, there Is
no seat, to cheer the ancient scout,
ard he must stand upon his feet while
buying prunes or kraut; the merchant
doesn't leave his task, the graybeards
mirth to share; there is no little wooden
cask of free tobacco there. There Is no
spacious cuspidor at which man may
aim; they're making fierce and deadly
war on every old-time game. In that
old store, once, business doomed, but
trade, like flesh, is grass; and now the
Blue Front store Is doomed, all out
worn things must pass.

Rings Appropriate to Costumes
BY MARY MARSHALL.

place 70 keep ring was on ones nm
gers. The idea of having precious gems
reset every season or so or of wearing
q really valuable ring only when 1t was
particularly appropriate 10 the COS
tune was not at all to their liking.
But the idea has at length been &C
cepted and one sees far fewer women
with fingers laden with rings whose
sole recommendation Is That they con-
tain diamonds of the first water than
was the case few years ago. And while
it is the fashion to wear solid pha-
lanx of bracelets several inches up the
arm. it certainly Is not in keeping with
present good taste to wear a miscel-
ianeous collection Of diamond rings at
the same time.
Some very well dressed women wear
no rings whatever save wedding or en-
gagement rings, and the number Of
married women who are willing to leave
of their engagement diamonds for
sportswear is increasing. A ring to be
really becoming and to hatter the hand
has to be rather large-and to be smart
1t has to be rather striking. Pretty lit
tie rings look well on very large hands
This weeks help for the home dress
maker provides a special sketch of a
new fringed frock which I thought
especially worth while because the deep
hip yoke to which the fringe is at
tached may be conveniently added to
any simple little silk crepe frock with
out making any alterations whatever in
the frock. Besides directions for max
ing the girdle, the circular contains
directions for making the fringe from
silk which may be bought by the skein
at considerably lower price than the
m TVSSz
of this circular, please send me q
stamped, Self-addreSsed envelope and I
will be glad to send it to you.

OUR CHILDREN,
BIZ ANGELO PATRr.
Precious Teeth.

Teeth are priceless. Perhaps that is
the reason why we regard them a. q
matter OF course. We grow them for
nothing. Never had to pay for one OF
them. Just like hair and finger nails.
Just like them only with difference.
II you break q flngernail 1t win grow
again as good as new. You can cut
your hair, pull it out, treat 1t roughly,
and It will return again after o few
days as good as ever. But II you break
a tooth, If you pull 1t out, that's the
end of that story.
OF course, the first teeth can fall out
without tragedy, provided they are
ripe for the shedding. But II they
have been damaged Ill treated, left to
rot out of their sockets, their going
will not promise q fine healthy tooth
for each gap. One may come, 1t Is
true-nature is long suffering-some-
times-but the chances are the second
tooth will come bearing a trace Of the
spirit of the old one. If 1t was glad
free tooth well and good. The second
one will come cleaning in pearl and
ivory. But If 1t were damaged tooth
the health and beauty Of the second
one cannot be assured.
The first teeth are to be watched and
tended. II cavities apear they are to
be mended, If you can get a dentist
to do it. Most Of the dentists I have
met are men who dislike having work
for little children. This is field ripe
for well trained woman dentists. They
can not only earn their living. and a
good one, but they can have the salts
faction of knowing that they have
conferred great benef1t upon the
rising generation.
There are many sorts of tooth brush
es and tooth pastes on the market.
Which brush or paste Is better / can
not say, but would like to say that
any brushing that Is done should be
gentle. It is not wise to tear the
tissues Of the mouth and that Is what
rough brushing and securing does.
Nor Is 1t good to witch dental floss
down hard between the teeth. II 1t
Is to be used, use 1t gently. See-Sawing
a stout dental thread between the teeth
Is likely to do more harm than good.
Tooth brushes should be clean. A
brush that has been carried to school
in the hands of a little child is not
a clean brush by the time it arrives
in the schoolroom. Very likely the
child has used 1t to brush the land
scape by the way.
Rinsing little child's mouth is about
all the washing it needs, II 1t needs
that. Better not wrap q finger in
gauze and scour q tender mouth. Ma
ture provides for little child's mouth
unless illness sets in. Then one should
be very gentle and most cautions about
the washing and rinsing. Gentleness
always is best.
Save the child's teeth for him. Begin
early to teach him to value them and
he will have q reason for keeping them
in order. If he likes his teeth, wants
to keep them in good condition, he
will the more readily take care Of them
and pay his duty visits to the dentist.
