Take spring medicine and doctor the skin with lotions. Your pimples will soon disappear. Often a pretty face is made disagreeable disagree-able by the presence of blackheads. These get into the skin and produce a peppery appearance. The Fkiu looks as though it were dotted with black pepper liberally applied. And. in spite of washings, nothing will make such a face look clean. Steaming and Scap For Blackheads. Now., if one has blackheads, there is only one thing to do and this is to get nd of them. Steaming the face is the first rule. Don't scald it. don't injure in-jure the skin, don't make it sensitive to heat and wind. But hat it with hot cloths until every pore in the skin ia oren. Now comes the time for soaping the face. Lather it well. U?e a good quality qual-ity of soap. Most shaving soaps are good and there are hundreds of good brands of toilet soap. If you prefer you can use a soap jelly made by yourself, your-self, with just enough healing material i in it to help the skin. ! Apply it thick to the skin. Wash off with many hot- water, softened with ' borax. And, finally, wash with a hot nater made milky with tincture of benzoin. When a little skin food is applied to the surface the skin will be found htaled and healthy and it will be sev-' eral days before the blackheads return. Of course blackheads come back, but fne can keep on treating them. If the skin is nicely cared for they will not return oftener , than once in two weeks. . . Marian Jtartineau's Answers. Mrs. Y.: I wrote you for a remedy for my pimples. My face is covered with them. I received no answer. How much money shall I send? Please do not send any money at all. The advice in this column is free to all who read this newspaper. Money pos-. itively will not be accepted, so do not send it. Your pimples should be treated treat-ed from within. Eat green salads, take cooked fruits, eat fish and the white meat of chicken. Do not eat rare beef nor mutton. . Mrs. T.: Is cold cream the best thing than can be used for wrinkle? and will you give me a wrinkle cream? A wrinkle cream must be thinner than cold cream. Take enough almond oil to fill an after dinner coffee cup. To this add a lump, of spermaceti as big as a walnut and a tablespoon of vase- i line. Beat well as it is heating and again as it is cooling. If too -thin heat again and add another lump of spermaceti. sper-maceti. .. . . ' . Minerva: Do you advise a woman who is too thin to take ..your exercises? Or should she rest and eat plentifully? If the thin woman is nervous she should rest and eat all the food she can comfortably accommodate. Thin people are often extremely nervous. If they can .rest the nerves, if they can put the right kind of food into the stomach,' if they can secure rerfect peace of mind as well as of body, they will gradually grow fat. a. Kloise G.: My complexion is poor, indeed. What would a set of your face preparations co?t? They are not for sale, but you can easily prepare them yourself. Apply a good skin food every night. Bathe the face once a day with hot water. Do not go out for an hour afterward. It would do you good to dose yourself with port wine and sulphur. Mrs. J.: Is the Vaucaire remedy to be taken internally or applied externally? external-ly? I am anxious to know, as I have had it put up. Take it Internally. It is best to ask your druggist about the quantity, as it varies with different persons and he probably knows your temperament. . 4 Girl Reader: My finger nails have white spots on them. 1 go to a manicure mani-cure and take good care of my hands. What would you advise. The white spots are scars. They are caused by pressure upon the base of, the nail. The orangewood stick, if used too hard will cause these spots. Elderly Woman: My nails break and show black streaks. Can you tell me how to keep them from cracking? " The nails begin to split at the age of 30. A good nail emollient rubbed into them every night will prevent this and will keep them quite young looking. look-ing. H. M. B.: Give me something for painful feet. I am greatly troubled with aching ankles and feet that burn. Soak them every night in hot water, clear and as warm as you cat bear. Dry the feet quickly and rub them with vaseline. Do not use enough to make the feet oily, but only sufficient to restore re-store moisture to the skin. This is a great remedy for aching feet. r H. G. M.: I desire, to express to you my gratitude for'youf remedy for superfluous su-perfluous hair. I used-the treatment' where the hair is pulled out with tweezers and weak ammonia applied. Jt removed it nearly all. Then I tried the salve stick for down on my face. Now how can I get rid of the hair over my nose, between my eyebrows? For this you might use the electric ! needle. You can easily use it at home if you own a battery. The needle, with the cords and wrist attachment, can be bought for about $3. It will last a lifetime life-time and can be sold, when you are 1 through with it. ; F. P.: What is the best cold cream for general use at night? My face is , rough and wrinkled and no cream . seems to help it much. You might take an egg shell of mut- ; ton tallow and an equal part of almond oil. Add to this half an egg shell of , spermaceti.

' ; : VEAL CUTLETS Fry four, or live slices, of salt pork till brown, or use drippings instead. Let the cutlets, which are best cut from vhe leg, be made as nearly of a size as possible; , dip them in well beaten egg and then in cracker crumbs and fry to.. a golden brown. Where the veal is tough it is better to parboil it ten or fifteen minutes before frying. VEAL LOAF Three pounds lean veal and one-fourth pound fait pork chopped fine, mince an onion aas tine as- possible. Grate a nutmeg or use one-half teaspoon powdered mace, mix-! mix-! iug it with an even tablespoon t-alt-aiid one even saltspoon cayenne nepptr. Add three well beaten eggs, one teacup tea-cup milk, and a large spoon melted butter. Mix the ingredients thoroughly: thorough-ly: form into a loaf: cover thickly with sifted, bread or cracker crumbs, and bake three hours, baiting now and then with a little butter and waater.

A glass of wine is sometimes ! added before baking, j MINCED VEAL Chop cold veal fine, i picking out all bits of gristle. To a 1 pint bowlful, allow a large cup boiiiing waater, one tablespoon butter, and, one of flour, one teaspoon salt, and a salt-spoon salt-spoon each of pepper and mace. Make a roux with the butter and ilour, and add the seasoning; put in the veal, and work five minutes, serving it on buttered toast. ' A FEW DON'TS. Don't use soap on the face oftener than once 'a day. Night is the best time' for a thorough cleansing: Don't .use cold water when giving the face a cosmetic rub. Warm water, followed by a dash of cold water, is better. Don't ,try :to put cold cream on a cold skin, or the absorption will not be thorough. Don't forget that vinegar will eradicate eradi-cate yellow stains from the face. Bathe the bruise at once with vinegar and discoloration will be prevented. Don't have a shiny nose and forehead fore-head because it is warm weather. Use a little cologne or spirits of camphor in the water when bathing the face. Don't be afraid of the flesh brush or giove. Friction aroupes the circulation circula-tion and restores tone and color to the skin. j Don't expect to cure an eruption on the face by external applications only. A hot foot bath, containing washing soda, will often cure this trouble, says the Washington Star. Marry a Good "Provider." J It is a pertinent consideration which 1 a young man seeking a wife ought not to shirk whether or not he will have the wherewithal to support her. Can he promise to pay rent or taxes, to buy wood and coal and meat and groceries and supply his wife with shoes and frocks? If children shall be born and every man, looking forward to marriage, has this hoped-for happiness hap-piness to face will his salary, or hia income from other sources, suffice to bring- them up and educate them suitably? Until a man is reasonably assured on these points be is not wise to engage himself to marry. Equally. I a girl should know whether or not the husband she accepts will, health land strength permitting, be what old fashioned people used to call a "good provider." If during girlhood, she is a wage-earner In every line, she is within the limits of a wise forethought if she balance carefully the possibilities possibil-ities of the future and the solidities of the present. She has a certain financial independence, while she earns her salary. This is not to say that either girl or man should desire to live in a style beyond the realm of simplicity .. or moderate expenditure. Few young women have the slightest wish to -begin their new life in splendor, splen-dor, or to ruin their husbands by foolish fool-ish and meretricious display. It s. however, the sensible plan t build on a firm, foundation, and not on shifting sands. Concerning Beeef Tea. Clear broths are merely aid? to digestion, diges-tion, little whips and spurs to sluggish powers. Invaluable in their proper place, it is only when beef tea. mutton broth, chicken or clam broth, are m1-taken m1-taken for real food that tl.ey become i dangerous and a source of positive ills- aftter. Clear animal broth or beef lea means starvation for the s'k-k. The albumen al-bumen of meats is hardened by hot water, and either remains in the meat itself or in the form of scum is skimmed off the top of the infusion. The water takes up the ilavoring principle prin-ciple and a small portion of other material, ma-terial, but is devoid of the nutriment commonly supposed to be dissolved by it. . This also holds true of mutton broth, supposed to be "so nourishing." In it r self, it is not nourishing .it all. It is the barley cooked in it that is nourishing. nourish-ing. The real name for muuoa brcrh, bas-sd upon its nutritive properties, would be barley broth flavored with mutton extract. So, too, is chicken broth most often a rice broth flavored with chicken extract. And cleur beef tea is but hot water generously Havered with meat extract that io seasoned with pepper and salt to iaste. When their true nature is divulged by a new label, meat infusions and th.-ir fictitious ficti-tious value appear in quite a different light. The nourishing part of beef tea lies in the meat that is thrown avay. Unless containing definite nutrients, such as those that exist in rice;, wrest, potato, barley egg or milk, broths arc without food elements in the ouaniity that it is possible to use.
