spite Of manual work has really
accomplished something
The most effective way to protect
busy hands from loss OF beauty Is TO
wear gloves when performing any tasks
that bring them into contact with hot
water, strong soaps or dirt OF any KIND.
But many women find gloves cumber-
some, so that some other method must
be devised.
Hands that are not adequately pro-
tected from houseWOrk sometimes be-
come very grimy, with dirt embedded
in the tiny creases Of the skin and
around the fingernails. Cleansing them
thoroughly is a discouraging job and
cannot be done in a hurry. Begin
by soaking the hands for 10 minutes
In bowl of warm water to which have
been added small pinch of borax and
one or two tablespoonfuls of tincture
of green soap. This soap is sold In
liquid form at drug stores and has anti
septic properties.
After the warm bath rinse the hands
and. without drying them, rub the
soiled places with the inside of freshly
cut lemon. Pay particular attention to
the groove of flesh about the finger
nails where CRIME so readily collects.
To clean the corners of the nails use
the tip of an orange wood stick with
bit of absorbent cotton wrapped
around it. Moisten this in lemon juice,
then rub it gently under the soiled
parts. If there is hardened cuticle on
the fingers, rub it smooth with fine
pumice stone Now rinse the hands
well in several waters and dry. Finally

The Play.
West opened small club, South
wins and leads a small spade. as 1t

that West was not false-carding. and
that he either had no other spade or,
more probably, now held the ace alone.
East would have no apparent reason for
holding off with the ace. If West held
exactly A 10, the hand could pre-
slunably not be made anyhow. unless
the hearts were to break and East held

knuckles are likely to be enlarged. The
right sort of massage taken daily will
slowly improve these disfgurements.
When massaging hands always hold
the tip Of each finger over the knuckles,
palms and down over the wrist. Use
plenty Of oily cream to lubricate the
massage on all sides Of the fingers and
hands Use a gentle but firm stroking
movement first. then a rotary one.
Redness of the hands, that is more
troublesome in cold weather than IN
Summer time, cannot be cured by local
treatments. The condition is due to q
relaxation of the tiny nerves that con-
troll the arterioles. A general toning up
of the sympathetic nervous system is
required in cases in which the relaxa-
ton is not clearly due to local cause,
such as having the hands in hot water

Beauty Industry
Called Nearly
Slump-PrOof

CHICAGO, Sept. 22.-The near
est approximation to a depres-
sion.proof business is the beauty
industry and this is due to
woman's urge for beauty at any
cost, Miss Mary Carroll, director
of hair styles for the Gabrieleen
Company, Chicago, declared at
the annual convention of the
National Hairdressers and Cos.
metologiStS Association.
During the season of 1934-35
the hairdress shops and the es-
tablishments supplying their
needs will ride to a new wave
of prosperity due to the revival
of the ornate hair styles so preva-
lent during the gay nineties,"
Miss Carol forecasts.
In the face of the depression,
beauty shops have increased in
numbers, the speaker stated. In
1929 there were some $4,000
shops in the United States while
today they number approximately
$1,000, she stated. These shops
give employment to nearly ESQ.,
