QURS AMP CORDALS PROPERLY CHOSEN FORM PLEASANT ENDING TO
Beauty Counsel
BY JULIET SHELBY
Sallow Skin

Sallow Skin
Dear Miss Shelby:
1 have a long. very thin
face and my complexion Is
very yellow. Will you please
tell me what will make my
face fuller and improve the
appearance of my skin?
Sincerely. NH.
Dear Mrs. M. H.:
A Sallow skin is usually the
result Of poor circulation.
Practice deep breathing every
day. Take long walks, take up
some form Of outdoor sports.
Do anything and everything
you can to stimulate good cir.
culation Of blood.
Battle daily, followed by q
cool shower and a brisk rub
with a coarse towel to bring
up the blood. An occasional
salt rub is good. Occasional
use of a liquid Stimulant or
circulation ointment helps bring
the blood to the skin cells and
clears the skin. Use after .
cleansing cream.
Fresh air, good blood and
better circulation will tend to
put a little more flesh on your
face, too; at least it will make
the flesh firmer. Massage
with toilet lanolin or cocoa
butter to help along. Use an
upward movement.
Careful hair arrangement will
make your face appear wider
and fuller. Train a few curlS
or bangs over your forehead.
Wear your hair rather full at
the sides and don't let It
come below the ears.
Apply NOuriShing Cream
Carefully
Dear Miss Shelby:
Please inform me whether or
not I should allow nouriShing
creams TO remain on my race
overnight.
Is castor oil good for hair
treatments? Sincerely,
Dear Mrs. E. r.:
Since your skin is dry, it will
be we'll to leave nouriShing
cream on your face all night.
Cleanse with cream, remove
with tissues, then smooth on
your nourishing cream with an
upward, outward movement.
Leave on around the eyes, on
the throat and over expression
lines, but remove from porous
parts such as chin and nose.
Castor oil is good for hair
treatments, especially If the
hair is dry. Some prefer olive
oil because it is not quite so
hard to wash out after the
treatment. Of course, in any
case, very thorough washing 10
necessary.

last course consists OF something
made with Roquefort cheese,
a sweet, heavy liqueur would
certainly be a mistake. White
creme de menthe. cognac, or
cherry brandy would be a good
choice.
It is said that the origin Of
cordials and liqueurs goes back
as far as 1000 B. c., when
fermented beverages were we'll
known in the great Assyrian-
Babylonian Empire. From Italy,
in the Middle Ages, came
some of the first liqueurs, in
troduced into France by Cath
crime de Medici, upon her
marriage to Henry II.
Two Classes
Cordials may be divided into
two classes simple and natur-
al liqueurs, first; and, secondly,
compounded liqueurs, which
may be prepared through
maceration, distillation, or
through mixture.
Natural cordials are distilled
directly from fruit. from wine,
from cereals, ETC., and they
contain added sugar. Among
these, cognac ranks first in
Importance.
Among the COMPOUNDED H.
oueurs, those prepared by dis
tillation have a percentage OF
alcohol somewhat less than
that found in natural liqueurs,
and an added quantity OF
sugar. These include most Of
the dessert liqueurs" which,
of old. were known as con
vent liqueurs, owing to the
fact that many of the best and
greatest were made in the con-
vents and monasteries Of the
Middle Ages. Benedictine and
chartreuSe are two of the most
notable.
Here is a little list Of the
best-known cordials at present
to be found in American mar
kets. It is interesting, some
times, to keep on the watch for
a new, and little known variety,
and introduce it to your guests
at a very special party. All
liqueur and cordial bottles are
of charming and odd design--a
collection of the rarer ones be-
comes quite a hobby.
Wide Variety
ABSINTHE. Aromatic, Of an
opaline-green color, and a bitter
taste. 1t is prepared by Steep
ing certain strong spirit bitter
herbs in alcohol. 1t becomes
cloudy when dropped over
crushed ice.
BENEDICTINE. Prepared
originally by the Benedictine
monks. Sweet, mildly fiery,
and amber colored. Has about
so per cent alcohol.
CHARTREUSE. Origina lily
made at the Carthusian Mon
astery, near Grenoble. It is of
three types-green, yellow, and
white. Is delicate, fiery, and
a very complex product result
ing from the distillation and
maceration of various fruits
and spices.
CHERRY BRANDY. The
most famous is Heering's, from
Denmark. It is made by mix
ing spirits with cherry syrup,
is dark red in color, and very
aromatic.
ANISETTE. White, with
about 80 per cent alcohol.
Tastes something like licorice.
CURACAO: White. or yellow,
with a bitter-orange flavor, and
of about so per cent alcoholic
content. 1t is a simple liqueur.
and is made from the dried
peel of the Curacao orange.
About one per cent of Jamaica
Rum is added to improve the
flavor.
GRAND MARINER: A de-
licious and unusual liqueur, of
great strength and flavor, made
of Orange Triple Sec, and Fine
Champagne "a type of brandy.
Orange colored.
MARASCHINO: Prepare
from the MaraSca cherry, in
the Dalmatian mountain region.
The juice of the cherry is fer.
mented and distilled, and the
spirit thus obtained is favored

So much of ones nature,
character and personal habits
are judged by the hands! Yet
most of us give them the mini
mum amount of care and take
them quite for granted.
Your hands should be beauti-
full. They should express
through their beauty your finest
thoughts and your meticulous
nature. Every little movement a
hand makes reveals the amount
of care you give it-and too, too
frequently it reveals only
neglect. Fortunately, today the
plainest hand, even the hand
that must be used in hard serv-
ice, can be transformed, with a
little care and the aid of cos
metics, to one of exquisite love-

Cleaning Chinaware

Fine china tends to nick when
heated. If placed on a towel
in the bottom of the dishpan,
this danger can be avoided. Use
a mild soap in washing painted
or gilt-edged china, and it is
safest to do one piece at a time.
Also don't use water that is too

1902 CHILDREN NOW
Number Increasing Each Month,
Superintendent Reports
to Board.

There are now 102 patients under
treatment at the Children's Tubercu-
losis Sanatorium at Glenn Dale. Md,
which was opened in September, DR..
Daniel Leo Finucane, superintendent,
reported to the Board Of Public We'll
fare.
During the past month the average
number of patients was II per day, as
compared with AZ in october. At the
beginning of November there were So
patients at the sanatorium. During
the month 81 others were admitted,
2 were discharged and 102 remained
under care at the end of the month.
Since the hospital has beds avail
able for $50 patients, it was occupied
up to So per cent Of capacity at the
end of November.
There have been 106 children ad-
mitted to the hospital since its OPEN
ing. -Four have been discharged.
None has died there.
Or. Finucane said the newly in
stalled filtration and water treatment
unit was functioning very satisfac-
torily. This was set up to take iron
and sand sediment out of the well
water The water is said now to have
q lesser vermilion content than the
average city water supply.

C|TYLUNACY LAWS
ARE HELD ARCHAIC
Medical Society Says Jury
Hearings Work Hardships
on Afflicted.

Local lunacy laws, under which those
suffering from mental abnormalities
are confined to cuStodial institutions,
were branded as archaic today by the
Medical Society of the District of Co.
lumbia. A committee of the society,
in cooperation with representatives
of the District of Columbia Bar Asso-
citation and the Federation of Citizens
Associations, has been working with
the corporation counsel on proposed
revision of the laws which would do
away with jury trials, except in re-
mote cases.
According to statement given out
today by the Medical Society, "com-
mitment would be decided upon by an
equity Judge, acting upon the recon-
mendation of a commission consist
ing of two physicians and an attorney,
but with the right reserved to demand
a jury trial" This demand could be
made either by the individual or a
representative.
Such practice is now prevalent in
several other jurisdictions, the Medi-
cal Society points out, specifying New
York and Massachusetts,. 1t is claimed
that this procedure not only protects
society, but makes it much less en-
barrassing for the victim of the psy-
Ghosts
Must Appear i'm Court.
Under the present laws in the Dis
trict, persons mentally deranged must
appear in open court, almost in the
role of criminal, the society points
out. This is said to be an ordeal which
many cannot bring themselves to face,
since there is little question that con-
siderable disgrace attaches itself to
mental abnormality."
Under the system proposed by the
Medical Society, any person suffering
from mental abnormality could appear
voluntarily before the commission, be
examined in private, and committed
for treatment without the attendant
publicity now given.
The Medical Society, In making pub
Lie its survey and study of existing
jury trial at present is little more than
a formality. The jurors, after hearing
medical evidence, usually pass upon
the case without discussion or refec-
ton, the society states.
According to this report, the pres
ent lunacy procedure is a product of
a time when medical knowledge and
treatment of insanity was in "a very
chaotic condition" Then, all sorts
of behavior abnormalities were
grouped together as insanity"
Under those conditions, any intelli-
gent layman was said to be as COM
petent as a physician in making a
diagnosis.
Distinction Not Clear.
Now, all has changed. Gone is the
day when there was no clear dis
tinction between mental abnormality
and criminality-an archaic attitude,
the society states, which is still found
in some parts of the public mind.
Scientific advances are said to have
swept away the foundations upon
which present lunacy laws Of the Dis
trict were established. Both diagnosis
and treatment of the psychoses have
now become matters of medical spe-
cialty. Psychiatry, the doctors say,
no longer recognizes the term "in-
sanity" other than in its legal
aspects.
