A. E. R.—Liver spots are usually
caused by indigestion, and by certain
mineral changes in the blood. The only
remedy for them is a good bleach. The
writer hesitates in giving formula for
bleaches because they all call for a
certain amount of mercury, which is a
deadly poison and not to be handled
by any one but an experienced chemist.
You can purchase these articles and
the majority are harmless if used with
discretion. The discolored cuticle must
all fluff away. A stamped, self-address
ed envelope will bring you further in
formation.
Betsy—When brushing the teeth al
ways brush away from the gums. Use
a firm, hard brush, which will keep the
gums healthy. A little listerine in
water makes a good breath sweetener.
Decayed teeth must be attended to at
once. The formulas have been sent to
you by post. Anything morel

to have more individuality than ever
before. The present fashion of draping
long strands of nnir flat around the
head usually necessitates the addition
of a switch. Give your “rat” to the
pup and let him kiff it. No morc'up
bolstered minds for American girls.
“Rats” and puffs are doomed.
Mrs. F. B. R.—Pardon delay in an
swering your letter, which was mislaid.
Next time, inclose stamped, self-ad
dressed envelope and reply will be sent
by post. Witch hazel will not produce
a growth of facial fuzzera. Raised
moles can be removed with the electric
needle, but few specialists care to treat
birthmarks. Only a careful examination
by an expert will determine the. proper
treatment. Bathe the hands with warm
water and pure soap, and while the flesh
is still soft, lift up the cuticle about
the nails by treating with an orange
wood stick which has been dipped in
powdered pumice stone. Cut away the
hangnails with the pointed scissors. Ap
ply creme marquise every night to
keep the cuticle from forming again.
F. D. B.—Eyebrows connecting over
the nose give a sinister and brigandish
expression. In half an hour the super
fluous fuzzers can. be cleared away
with the electric needle at the small
expense of $2.50. The discomfort is
only trifling and there is nothing what
ever to fear. Electrolysis is done
with great success. Merely choose a re
liable shop. The rest will take care
of itself.
Galesburg—lf a young man has de
clared his love and withheld the mar
riage proposal it is not necessary for
you to acknowledge that you have ten
der thoughts foT him. A woman' is
privileged to keep a man guessing up
to that delicious and psychological mo
ment when he asks her’ to become his
wife. Then it is for her to give an
honest, straightforward reply. Until
that moment she can parry and fence
all she likes. Even after marriage it
is well to be a bit flirtatious with hus
band. It amuses him.

New Baking Powder Biscuits —Ure the
regular recipe, but Instead of mixing aa
little as possible, knead thoroughly until
dough Is perfectly smooth. When baked
they will be almost like beaten biscuit,
and much nicer, when reheated than the
ordinary kind.
Sliced Plums—Slice blue plums without
removing skins, and sweeten an hour qr
two tefore using. They will, be found de
licious.
Barley Flour Custard—Three table
spoonfuls of flour should be mixed with
a cup of cold water, and boiled six min
utes; then add a pint of milk, three eggs
well beaten with a half cupful of sugar.
Bring to a boll, pour into the dish from
which it will be served or into Individual
cups and set away until cold.
Grape-Elderberry Pie—The combination
of grapes and elderberries is a pleasing
change and well worth trying. Use one
third Concord grapes and two-thirds el
derberries and sweeten with more sugar
than would ordinarily be required in mak
ing fruit pies. Dust the top lightly with
flour before adjusting the top crust.
