The average even poor family throws away daily what would feed another of the same size.

These broad col lars, by the way, are the very latest wrin kle in coats for the coming season—both for little women and X their mothers. The collar of this coat has as decoration a wide black satin ribbon -• sash which runs through eyelets and hangs in tasseled ends almost to the hem of the coat. the WOMAN BEAUTIFUL D. G.—The salt and peroxide of hydrogen treatment for removing au perfluous hair is very simple. You first bathe the arms in a weak solu tion of salt water, after which you dry them thoroughly. Then dampen the arms with the peroxide. Do this every day for seven or eight months, by which time the hair should fall out. This treatment is not infallible, but has been sucoesstul in some cases. I could not give an opinion as to the remedy mentioned by you. Miss Josephine—A very good bleach for a brown skin is given here with. Buy a 50-cent jar of theatrical skin food and half a pound of almond meal. Beat together one teaspoonful of the cream and some almond meal and add enough hot water to form a spreadable paste. You then cut two squares bf thin cheesecloth big enough to cover tho face and tear a hole In the center, Now dampen the squares and spread the paste between. Bathe the face in very hot water, massage for a minute, then lay on two wet Turkish towels, and as soon as they cool, replace with others. Keep this up for twelve minutes. The pack must then be removed and the face washed first in warm, then cool, then Ice-cold water. Take two bleaches a week for three weeks, when your skin should be soft and white. A. L. —Thank you for your appre ciative words. I am glad you enjoy my department. The preparation you mention is better in liquid form. Ido not think it would plumpen the face. It is first, last and always, a buss de veloper. Yes, I do know of an ex cellent pimple lotion and am glad to give it to you. Percipltate of sulprur ..1 -dram Tincture of camphor .. 1 dram Rose water 4 ounces This should be applied several times a day. See my reply to Miss Joseph ine. As you are anxious to plumpen your face you should wear a cream mask for an hour each day. This treatment consists of washing the face In very hot water and then covering it with a thick layer of skin food. You then put on a cotton mask, with holes for mouth, nose and eyes. This mask is held on by means of strings ti«d behind the head. When the hour is up, wash the cream off the face and fluff on some powder. If you feed the skin In this manner every day. It won't be long before your face will be as plump as heart can desire. Mrs. L. C. —And so you are going to subscribe to this paper because you like my department. You make me quite vain. See my reply to Miss Josephine. As your z skin is coarse grained, you should dampen the face YOU WANT A PROVEN REMEDY to correct a bad stomach—to restore the appetite —to relieve constipation and keep you strong and healthy.

Every time a daughter with fash ionable aspirations comes home to visit, she makes it a point to go over her mother’s list of friends and Weed It Out.

It Is much easier to stand and walk on, does not tire the feet as a harder floor, and when prop erly laid Is more easily cleaned and kept clean, therefore more sanitary and labor-saving than a wood floor.

The packing house horrors and the adulterations In foods will be abol ished when women co-operate with the government actively In this re gard. Women are daily cheated by false weights and measures. Don’t take honesty for granted. Test It with standard weights and a yardstick. Leisure is a good thing, but if a woman be saved time from food preparation only to waste it in bridge whist, she has lost by the arrange ment and all society loses. A morning over the washboard isn’t especially easy or pleasant, but it is better than spending It in gossip that leaves the bad taste in the mouth.
