How delightful it would be if we could pack up now and fly to some pieasant shore resort. While there can be no really satis- factory substitute for an outdoor swim, the next best thing is a bath delicately perfumed with bath salts or powders.

Pamiliar, cheap sub- stances like sal soda, violet ammonia. borax and powdered starch may be used in bath water to make it soft and soothing to the skin. Two tablespoon- fuls of any of these things may be added to the bath. Half a pint of aromatic vinegar in a tub of water makes a soothing bath for tired nerves.

Plain soap and water will remove grime and perspira- tion from the skin, but in order to make bathing an esthetic pleasure one must soften and perfume the water.

He offered the money for my pass when it arrived this afternoon.” “Tell me what sort of a man he is?" Laurita begged curiously “There are two of them.” he con- fided. “T can't tell what there is about them, but I never met two men I dis- liked so much in my life. Graunt is a short, bald-headed little man fat, very carefully dressed, with odd colored eyes and a horrible mouth The man with him looks almost like & foreigner—a thin. dark. hatchet-faced man, who speaks very carefully, almost like a schoolmaster.” Where did you come across them? Blanche asked “On the roadside hetween Newmarket and Thetford.” Martin explained. T found them there, seated on a fallen tree, without a speck of dust upon their clothes or even a walking stick. They looked as though they'd dropped from an aeroplane. Afterward they told me that they had been the victims of one of vour uncle’s practical jokes.” Blanche nodded. “Uncle has done that three or four times,” she said, “to people who've bothered him to see over the house. 1 don't suppose he knew who these two were, though.” Laurita appeared moment her childishness have left her. “The man she whether the letter 1 suppose?
