PRETTY EYEBROWS.
They Require as Much Care as Teeth, Skin or Nails. It may astonish some women to know mat the eyebrows are often ruined at this season of the year, and unless one is careful, pretty brows become coarse and not infrequently thin. This calamity is caused by salt water, much exposure to dust when motoring, and the sun, that occasionally dries them up to such an extent, that me glands are unable to nourish the hair roots. Once this catastrophe happens every effort should be made to better the condition by feeding the roots. In this treatment one of the best essentials is to keep the brows thoroughly clean. This means more than a superficial wash, for while mere dust may be loosened, it cannot be taken out, and thus the pores get choked. To properly wash them a small brush like that used for the nails, only much softer, some plain soap, such as castile, if it agrees, and then a scrub. Always, when coming in from the summer wind the brows should be given a gentle but thorough bathing. This washing, in the very nature of things, extracts natural oils, and they must be restored, or the skin given their equivalent. Vaseline as a substitute for them is excellent, so is sweet almond oil. If the former is used it may be applied rather thickly with the finger tip, wiping off any superfluous amount with soft muslin. At the place where the natural curve starts there should be a downward stroke that will point the hairs in the right direction. By getting this straight line over the eyes an effect of width most becoming tu the face is given, while the downward line finishes off to a tapering point. In this massaging red vaseline is necessary for the brows, though the merest point of grease is enough, for if the brows are kept fed with it the hair will grow better and take on a polish. For thin eyebrows a combination of quinine and vaseline is a most beneficial tonic. In the making about as much quinine as can be put on the point of a small pocket knife blade should be mixed with a teaspoonful of vaseline. This may be applied night and morning, letting it remain on. —Margaret Mixter.
The Ideal Nursery.
Today the nursery is looked upon as an essential apartment in a house where children abide and, from a hygienic standpoint, it may justly be called a sensible room, for children after they can walk should not sleep in the mother’s room. To deny them this privilege previous to the second year is really unkind, for a child less than one year old should never be left alone; it demands too much attention. Whether the room is large or moderately small, it should, by all means, have plenty of ventilation, the more windows the better. The room should hg papered in light paper, also painted in light tones, though the blinds should be the darkest shade to darken the room when necessary. Each child should have a bed to himself, with a soft mattress, soft, low pillow, double sheets, made in one piece, one blanket, thin quilt and cover. If a nurse is engaged, she may have her bed in the same room, and frequently does, though more often she has a room opening into the nursery. There is little need for much furniture, the chief requisite being a large clothes press on one side of the room with apartments for every article. This can be built in the house or afterwards made and covered with a curtain, though doors are best. There should be a table with a lower shelf upon which toys qpn be kept. Walls can be brightened with framed pictures of little Dutch children, flowers, animals, birds, in fact anything that will be attractive to a child old enough to observe such objects. The curtains in such rooms should be fitted to the lower sash so as to be raised with the window. A child’s room should contain only what is really needed for its comfort and such articles as will be found necessary for its pleasure.
Cut Off with Shilling.
We often hear the threat of being "cut off with a sh ’Hing” by our peculiar and crochety relatives, but the following clause of a will is literal execution of it which would not be considered by many of us to be a very effective salve for the pain attending their demise: “Whereas, it was my misfortune to be made very uneasy by Elizabeth M —, my wife, from our marriage, by her turbulent behavior, for she was not content with despising my admonitions, but she contrived every method to make me unhappy; she was so perverse in her nature that she would not be reclaimed, but seems only to be born to be a plague to me. The strength of Samson, the knowledge of Homer, the prudence of Augustus, the cunning of Pyrrhus, the patience of Job, *the subtlety of Hannibal, and the watchfulness of Hermogenes could not have been sufficient to subdue her; for no skill or force in the world could make her good; and as we have lived separate and apart from each other for eight years, and she having perverted her son to leave and actually abandon me, therefore, 1 give her one shilling only.” Professor Wasserman, of Berlin, has succeeded in finding a serum which cures ptomaine poisoning._

The cure for man, woman, or child. Is to cure the cause —the kidneys. Doan’s Kidney Pills cure sick kidneys— Cure all forms of kidney suffering. Mrs. Andrew Brenner, 1821 Toledo Street, Logansport, Ind., says: “We think just as highly of Doan’s Kidney Pills at this time as when we gave a statement recommending them in 1897, after they had cured our daughter of a very distressing case of kidney trouble. Her kidneys became weakened after a severe attack of typhoid fever and as a result, she endured much suffering. I had used Doan’s Kidney Pills with such good results that I decided to have my daughter try them and procured a box. They helped her greatly. from the first and she steadily Improved until completely cured. This cure took place in 1897 and as no recurrence of the trouble have taken place, I feel that I can recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills to other sufferers.” Plenty more proof like this from Rensselaer people.
