The woma.n who is out of sorts ! in' Vienna, and who applies to this : hospital, which is called by a term which in our language means a sani- ! tarium. is conducted to a room, and there she disrobes, puts on .a loose robe, and lies down upon a .sweetly rented couch, upon which there are (imens of sweet pillows and a. scented i coverlid. She is given a book to read, ; hiie the attendant hurries away with her clothing. ' - - - . . . "In an hour everything is -brought back to her sweot and fresh, .'and.-' as fhp dons her gown again, the patient smiles and Fluffs gratefully. Her clothing cloth-ing has bfn sprayd with an essence of rose, and after the spraying, which v.?.s a thorough one, the clothing was aired nnd sprayed again.

At a certain' surriirer resort, where fcarlet fever broke out two years ago, i sll nf the summer boarders were ad- ! vised to carry about with 'them a bottle bot-tle 0f lavender salts and to inhale from its d.-pths frequently.

The remedy is to stimulate stim-ulate the functions of the skin. This can be done ' by using a complexion j brush at night, drinking three pints of water every day, unless you are trying try-ing to reduce, and bathing once a day with a hot solution of boracic acid, one icitpuoniui or tne powder to a pint of water.

Bleach your nails with lemon juice J and rose water, half and half. At night cover your hands with benzoi- i nated vaseline and rub well into the j skin. In the morning wash with hot water. ... Miss G.: How can I obtain the crescents cres-cents on my nails which you- describe as such a mark of beauty? I do not think my nails have any crescents. Your nails have crescents though you ; j may never have seen them. Cover the i hands with soap, soak them fifteen j minutes in warm water, if you can J spare the time, and then with your fin- ger tips push back the flesh at the base of the nail. You. must do' this three or four times -a day if you want the crescents cres-cents to appear. FRILLS OF FASHION. A, bright red morocco bag with gold mountings Is considered particularly eric at the moment. A New York woman wo-man appears on Fifth avenue with one of them and a parasol ot the sarm color. . . , The new bag Is large and gay, ou. holds in comfortable lashion a quantity quan-tity of small things. -i- Pale gray, champagne, apple green sometimes mixed witn parma vl0?t' aid red, especially in muslins, are the shades seen in the successful toilets ot i the year. 4- Drawn work, lace applique and insertion in-sertion are certain features of white stocks and collars. Long handles of "jet and of steel are extremely odd in .new parasols. On many of the lightest and daintiest parasols are handles of boxwood both carved and slain. The old-fashioned j carriage parasols of French threap lace ! are in leading vogue. Pongees and shantung silks are shown in narrow lines and pin checks. They are oretty and will be serviceable. service-able. Black ' pongee has many good p.drtts. 'It --toill wash well and is light iiiid cool. f Linens of all kinds are still the fa- , vorites for both morning and simple afternoon summer gowns, but old-fash-s 3 Tn..r.Vi r-enle which is one Of the most serviceable cotton materials ever made, is being widely employed for tub-dresses. Oid-farhioned st3'Ter are recalled this season, not only by the return of gown - models- "to the -early Victorian period . of drooping shoulders and cake-like trimmings, but by many of the materials mate-rials uiemselves. This is notably true of the designs seen in muslins and organdies, or-gandies, many of which are printed in large, quaint flower patterns. v In Paris the fancy for red shoes and stockings seems just now to show signs of becoming a vogue, but what Paris may do in the matter of footgear is by no -means always advisable for us. With a black robe red shoes are piouant and charming, no doubt, but cut of doors they look bizarre and bring the feet too much into prominence promin-ence But there are some of the prettiest pret-tiest shoes in soft shades of satin and ';ik designed- to wear with the evening dresses: they are embroidered in silks to match the gowns. - " Dark Picture of London. Treating on the condition of the T-orking classes in London, in a recent : article in the Independent, Vigil K. , Htotkhouse, among other things says: "London is a hotbed of prostitution. Nearly every woman cast upon her own resources has three Issues to face suir tide, starvation or prostitution."
