AKIL.AND, FLA., AUG. 9, 1912. l Wicked | Grandmother Two big tears rolled from under Harrlet's lids and made their way slowly down her plump cheeks. “Harriet, dear,” sald Mrs. Martin, gently, but with marked firmness, “I think you'd better go to your own room for a while. “She's such a queer child,” she went on after Harriet had disappeared with a gulp of despair, “She simply determined that she won't wear her new dress to the party tomorrow. She vants to wear her old one!™ Grandmother Hilton, to whom the remark was addressed, passed over this unnatural state of mind without comment. “Why doesn’'t she want to wear the new one?" she asked. “She says it makes her look funny,” { moaned Harriet's mother. “She 5 it's not like the other girls’ dresses. Well, I didn't want it to be like the other girls’ dresses. I tried so hard make it have a little individuality.” “Oh!” said Grandmother Hilton. “Of course you're right, dear,” she said, after a moment's reflection, “but since it makes her so unhappy don't you think it would be better to let her wear the old one?” “When she has a perfectly new one?”’ crled Mr. Martin, desperately. At this moment Harriet's tear stain. ed face appeared In the doorway. “Then can I not go to the party, mother?” she hiccoughed. “Harriet,” sald her mother, sternly, “you will go to that party and you will wear the very pretty and unusual looking dress that I got for you. Not another word, please.” Harrlet gave vent to her feelings in a sudden loud howl. “Oh!” she walled. “How can you be 8o mean to me? I don't mind a bit staying at home if you will let me, but it will just kill me to wear that dress. There isn't another girl in the world that has one like it. I can't bear to wear it.” Mrs. Martin looked at her own mother. “Did you ever hear anything like it? It's ridiculous!” she exclaim- ed, forlornly. The atmosphere of the housebold was fraught with gloom during the rest of the day. Harrlet's swollen eyes and general air of desolation gave the place the effect of a tomb. When Harrlet's father--who went up- on the general principle that Harriet should be allowed to do exactly as she pleased so long as it would do her no bodily injury—came home and learned the cause of his daughter's deep de- pression, he laughed. “Well, for goodness sake, why don't | you let the kid wear the old one?” he inquired. Then he observed the firm line made by his wife's lips and he knew there no use in discussing the matter further. A new silver dollar hestowed on Harriet helped to relieve the tension, but the watery little smile which he received was a far cry from the joyous peal of laughter that he had hoped for. Consequently he, too, was depressed and silent. After THarriet had gone to school the next morning Mrs, Martin, with the air of a defiant culprit, took the bone of contention into her mother's room. “Now, isn't it a pretty dress?” she asked, belligerently, i “Indeed it 1s.” sald CGrandmother Hilton with enthusiasm. “It's just as pretty as it can be, but it is rather different from the way most of the! | Birls' dresses are made, isn't ne “I wanted It to be different,” =aid | Mrs. Martin, obstinately. It is so| much prettier than the way dresses are made now and 1 want Harriet to have a little independence.” Grandmother Hilton smoothed out the soft folds gently. 'There was no hint of gulle in her tone, nor was there in her sweet face when she spoke again. “Don’t you think it necds pressing, Genevieve?" she asked you let me run down to the and smooth it out a little.” “Oh, will vou, mother?

Cold water is useless against the deep seated dust and grease of the skin, even with the aid of soap. Moreover, it tends to contract the pores, making it still harder for them to yield their con- tents. So as a preparation for help- ful massage, which {s meant further to clear the stopped-up pores, the face bath must not only be hot but very complete. There {8 much contention that soap is injurious to the skin, but this is by no means true. The influences of £0ap are tomic, antiseptic and cleag- sing, 80 that a soap must really be very bad to hurt the skin—contaln, in fact, the strong alkall which scorches and irritates. A good face bath with very hot water and a bland soap leaves a smooth skin like marble, and with repeated and systematic bathing the rough one i{s much improved. Work thick soap suds or a soap jelly well into the pores, and rinse with repeated waters. - Dab it partly dry with a soft old towel, and then =it down with a pot of good cold cream, or a little almond ofl, and proceed with the massage.

Next massage the temple muscles in the same way. These are stlll] more easily detected by the even greater influence they exert on the lines each side of the nose. The reg- ular and systematic massage of them will prevent the formation of crow's feet, those fine lines at the corners of the eyes which laughing faces with thin skin take on so often at an early age. Some unguent or other is undoubt- edly required with massage, for oth- erwise the cuticle would be much ir- ritated, and the benefits of any face cream are increased tenfold if it is used with massage.
