KEEPING HANDS MILKY WHITE

Old-Fashioned Tallow Recommended; Feeds Tissues and Gives Hands a Pleasing Plumpness. If rubber gloves or loose kid gloves are systematically worn during work hours there Is no reasdh why the hands should become red and rough, but If they have a tendency that way cold cream should be rubbed in each night and soft chamois gloves donned. Perhaps the treatment may be necessary only every other night or only once a week. Some hands redden and roughen more easily than others, just as some skins freckle or burn more easily than others. There Is nothing like old-fashioned tallow to make the hands milky white, according to an authority, and the tallow wIH also feed the tissues and give hard worked hands a pleasing plumpness, for, be it known, only the useless hand is softly rounded and plump like a child’s. Hands that do work may be white and perfectly kept. The nails and finger tips must be carefully attended to, for housework first betrays itself here. A visit to a reliable manicure once a week will help a great deal, and the trifling price should be included among household expenses.
