THOSE POOR GIRLS. The Minneapolis Tribune daily publishes a department called "Beauty's Realm," in which Xouise Chapelle tells how to keep the charms of youth. Below are a few questions taken from the last two issues of the Tribune, together with answers which we trust are original. The are re spectfully submitted to Miss Chapelle for consideration: Dear Miss Chapelle: My hands and face perspire too much. Can you suggest a remedy? Mollie. Yes, Mollie, dear, go sit in the ice box. Dear Miss Chapelle: My nose shines all the time. Powder will do no good. Will you please give me a recipe? Mary L. Light the powder. Dear Miss Chapelle:" Will you tell me what to do with my hair, which is beginning to get sprinkled with gray (although not from age). As yet there is only a g^ay hair here and there. E. S. H. Your condition is doubtless caused by worry. Go out for a time with the boys. Once tried the treatment will come easy. Dear Miss Chapelle: I am a young girl and have ex ceedingly thin hands and arms and the knuckles of my hands are large. Is there anything that I can do to make my hands and arms more shapely, as they annoy me very much? T. D. C. Punch the dough every baking day and get your mother to teach you the broom exercise. Go through with the latter regularly every morning. Dear Miss Chapelle: I have been in the sun very much this summer and my face has become tanned. It is red, my nose particularly. Please tell me how to remove it. Miss N. B. Remove what? WHY IS IT? Directions to strangers in Be midji to reach the city dock: Starting from the Markham go straight north, taking good care to make lour deep bows after crossing the alley and oefore reaching the corner, or, if pre ferable, take to the street. Fail ing to follow this custom of the town you will receive a rap on the head for every bow you do not make and your hat will be sent rolling in the dust. The first bow is a sudden one, just across the alley, and, after nar rowly escaping a piece of low hanging canvas and its iron sup port, it brings you undera beautiful white canopy, common ly called an awning. A few steps more and you duck again to escape the farther edge, and tind yourself under another awning. Six steps more, then conies a double cluck and you are on the home stretch, with only one more bow to make as you pass the edge of the last awning. Ar riving at the corner turn to the right, and don't bother with ask ing anyone why the awnings in question are allowed to hang within four feet ten and one-half inches of the sidewalk, for it would be only a waste of timo: they couldn't tell you.
