A'
T tola time oast girts are
looking anxiously to their
neck, boulder and arm.
; Winter it particularly unkind to all
i of these parts of the body.
Tbe neck 4a always tbe sufferer
when fast ion decree high collar.
It ta beet to eompromii with Cash
Ion by letting tbe collar ail
guimpea be of tbln, soft material.
When tbl 1 not poealbl .tbe col
lar can be lined witb white, e'eX
though you batte place of aft
muslin or ilk inside tbe cellar for
yourself. It ti worth tbe effort to
keep our .sack clear, Sett .and
white. Dark collar communicate
their color In an ugly, shadowy rim
that 1 anything else than attrac
tive, ' Or tbay cause fellow stain
difficult to remove.
Should you see this unwelcome,
appearance, add to the daily acrub
witb a complexion brush and pur
soap and vara rater an applica
tion at least once a day. preferably
before retiring, of tbb:
Distilled witch hazel.... 1 ounce
j Rose water ,......,...., ounce
' bichloride of jrtrcury.,.l erln '
' Moisten tie yellowed eklo W a
apoage or a piece t absorbent cote
ton saturated with th foregoing.
The tight collar, beside robbing
tb seek of It aetural tairnes by
disturbing tbe circulation and lea
vening tbe supply of blood to those
parte, causes premature wrinkling
of tbe neck. The best care ia to
wear bigb. collar act at all or a
little as possible. At least do not
wear them at borne. Free your
' neck a soon possible and nour
ish the starred muscles by feeding
them liberally witb a cold cream.
Or a pasta mad a follow ha the
same elect, beside whitening tb
kin:
Liquid honey, en tablespoonful.
Juice of one temoa. '
r White of two eggs.
, Mix these with enough fine oat
meal to make a fairly thick, moeth
past.
This Is the season for revealing
tb arms. If they be painfully
thin or embirrastingly clump those
qualities are shown in the low cut,
ahortslaered goes. The beautiful
arm bait midway between these
extreme, it should b frankly
round'aad plump, but not fat. That
it should be smooth and soft and
white goes almost without saying.
It might have all these desirable
points, yet fail of beauty because It
does not taper at the wrist.
If tb arms are this, gentle exer
cise and much ligbt massage with
oil, almond and olive In equal parts,
with a few drops of benioln for
whitening the mixture, should grad
uslly increase their size and curves.
If they are too large, vigorous us
of the exerche should reduce them,
especially if they are bathed dally
with an astringent, ae, for Instance,
with white wine vinegar, which
whitens as well a reduce. Tbln

This lotion, of Italian origin, will
make them smoother, and should,
ia good time, entirely remove the
rough appearance.
. I's this freely on the arm after
wsblng them and before tbey bv
been thoroughly dried:
Bo water, n pint
Tincture of benzoin, one fluid
drachm.
Tincture f telu, twenty diep.
Often a glri dislikes to bare her
arm because there is on them a ,
thick, dark growth of superfluous
hair, unwelcome because, my corre
spondent sadly declare. It makes
tbem "look like monkey." Tbl
depilatory powder, It used most
carefully, will remove that bairy
covering for a time I merit earn
estly warn you, however, to be ex
ceedingly careful in your use of it
Remove It the instant it begin to
mart. If you do not your arm
msy b permanently disfigured:
Starch ounce
Quicklime S ounce
Orplment li ounce
Crab each of these into a fine
powder. Mix tbem well and keep
tbem la a tightly closed Jar or bot
tle. When tbe depilatory Is needed
pour a teaspoottful into a saucer.

thing In may reach.
Ixwk at th plan again and let us
imagine tbat a different kind of a
man ba tbe room. At 10:20 be
enter th door, follows route
marked N, and turn to tbe left and
place tbe lamp and bl stemwlnder
on tbe small table by th door.
Then, in two ateps, be rearbea the
other table, where eh takes from the
drawera fresh handkerchiefs, col
lar, etiSe and tie that he will need
in the morning. Two more steps
brings him before th chidonler for
whatever clothing he tbink b will
need to-morrow. H then walk
round the foot of th bed, leaving
tbe cloth ins on tbe foot ot tbe bed
and placing tbe amall thing in the
drawer ot th washitand In eaay
reach when standing before the
mirror In tbe morning.
Now for bed. Every piece of
clothing is bung on it book or
placed in closet or on the chair In a
certain regular order, so that It can
be taken up In tbe morning with
out a aingle lost mottoo.
As soon as it Is ligbt be begins
st tbe place where be left off tbe
night before end taking up esch
piece In reverse order he wsshes
end dresse. crowing th room but
once. He follows route msrked M and
picks up bis watch lust as be goes
ont the door ot hi room. He is
glad to note that be ba plenty of
time to gel a breath of fresh air
out of doors, look at the mail and
perhaps help mother bring in
breakfast, and best of all. he has
a good half hour to himself before
tho day' work begins
Hi time he knew was worth more
In the morning than at night, and
he made a list of all tbe thing be
must use In the morning and then
arranged tb thing in th order in
which they would be uaed, begin
ning witb the towel and ending
with the wbiek broom. He then
"routed" tb room so tbat be could
enter the door, turn to tbe left and
pass the small table, tbe chiffonier
and the second table and then walk
round tbe foot or tbe bed to the
washitand and then walk to the
closet by tbe head ot the bed.
Tbia trip was continuous and
without single backward atep. It
la ahown on the plan by the dotted
line marked N. in the morning be
reversed the route, as shown by
dotted line marked M. Very soon
he bad a place for everything along
