For the Nails.

A bit of emory paper two inches long by three-quarters of an inch wide is far better for the nails than a file; it can slip under them and gently remove any little roughness that a file would only aggravate and it is very gentle in its treatment of the tiny color spots that thimble, racquets or pens seein determined to produce. Slip the emory paper into your pocket-book with the hair-pin and the extra postage stamp and you are armed against all emergencies. No other manicure tool than the emory- paper is necessary, for a finer polish oan be produced by quick, light rubbing of the nails of one hand on the ball of the other thumb than by all the chamois skin or velvet polishers in creation.
