Bathing is a very important daily duty, according to the St. Louis Post Dispatch, yet few people know how to take a bath to get the most good out of it. There are certain things that add to the'comfort of a bath which should not be missing from a well-appointed bath room. Every bath room should have a cork or rubber mat beside the tub. Woolen mats absorb moisture and become dingy and unhygienic. Every bath room should havo attached to the wall beside the rub, low enough to be accessible, two small wire trays: one to hold the sponge and the other the soap in the intervals of bathing, when these, articles are not in active use. Every bath room should contain a set of shelves on which should be kept soap, | tooth powder, a can of almond meal, a jar of cold cream, a bottle of ammonia, a bottle of alcohol, a bottle of lavendar or violet water, a bottle of listerine and a bottle of witch hazel. Of course, the ! woman who indulges in lotions and bleaches will keep them also. If rnedi- j cine is kept in the bath room it should not be mixed indiscriminately with the toilet preparations but should have a ' section to itself. J The brushes which very woman needs for her bath are a tiesh brush for occa sional use, a rubber complexion brush and a nail brush. Some skins are kept smooth by friction; others are rough ened. It will, therefore, be the part of wisdom not to indulge in continual j scrubbing until one discovers which sort of skin one has. Cold water is not cleansing. It is bracing; it is harden ing and it helps to make the skin j firm, but it is not cleansing. The shock i of cold water application closes the j lini'PC nt nn..A Oll.l tLcir rntnln nil + Vv A I impurities which they should cast out. So that the woman who wishes to be elean must wash in warm water every day and use her cold w ater sponge only as a skin tonic. When one is fatigued a sponge hath with warm water and alcohol will restore one’s strength and vigor. When one is not well a thorough rubbing down with oil is an excellent medicine. f I Queer story of real life. A Young Girl Arose from tlic Grave to Live Many Hapny Year*. | One night in 1801 a little girl about , one year old was deposited on the steps of the foundling hospital at Brest. She was dressed with much finery and a note attached to her skirts told that her tjame was Solange and that she would be reclaimed by her father, says an ex change. The .claim was never made, however, and in due time the child was transferred to the orphan asylum to be educated. As she grew up she de veloped a most extraordinary beauty: but her intellect appeared to be very weak and she suffered from frequent nervous fits. When she was twelve years old she was sent out into the streets to sell flowers, and her beauty and her modesty attracted many peo ple’s good will; but she grew weaker and weaker, and at last she died, or at least it was thought so. According to French custom, she was buried in an open basket, and, as it was winter and the soil was frozen, she was laid into the grave covered only with a thin layer of sand. During the night she awoke, and, pushing the sand away, crept out from the grave. Not exactly under standing what had taken place, she was not so very much frightened; but in crossing the glacis between the ceme tery and the fortifications she was sud denly stopped by the cry: "Qul vive?” and, as she did not answer, the sentinel fired and she fell to the ground. Brought into the guardhouse, her wound was found to be very slight and she soon re covered. But her singular history and also her great beauty had made so deep ! an impression on a young lieutenant I of the garrison—Kramer—that he de- | termined to be her protector and sent j her to one of the most fashionable edu- j cational establishments in Paris. Dur- ! ing the next few years Kramer was I much tossed about by the \var; but j when in 1818 he returned to rai ls he found Solange a full-grown woman, not only beautiful but accomplished and | spirited, with no more trace of intel lectual weakness or nervous fits. He married her and for several years the pniinlo Ik*cr1 hnnnnir In Tlmd., The Poailion of Portoga!. ! Portugal is a weak nation and seldom considered in speaking of the powers ■ of Europe, but she is in a position now to be of great importance in the contro versy between England and Germany. The only seaport through which Ger man forces can go to the assistance of the Transvaal is on Delagoa bay, which belongs to Portugal, and if that power refuses to assent Delagoa bay cannot be used for hostile purposes without making war against Portugal. The sit uation is awkward for Germany, if Por tugal Bides with England, as reported, for she cannot give the Boers the en couragement of a military demonstra tion without committing an act of war against a power with which she has no quarrel; but it is still worse for Portu gal, who finds herself between two fires, and in a fair way to be burned which ever way she turns.—Philadelphia Ledger. Something to Funder Over. The sailing tonnage of all countries fell off 106,000 tons last year, as com- ’ pared with 1894. But there was an in- ‘ crease of about 824,000 tons in steam tonnage—a very significant sign of the times. England leads in ship building,! as a matter of course. Indeed, 62V£ per cent of the new tonnage launched dur ing the year was acquired by her, al- j though there was a falling off in the to tal credited to her, as compared with the showing for 1893. Nearly 20 per cent of the English output went to for- i cign countries and more than one fourth was secured by Japan. I Hour*! Thin!
