GRANDPA GRUMPUS. Bean Hill, TACT. Dear Editor and Social Cornerites: The thoushts expressed by Practical Pru in her last letter, that we are a happy family, because we are a busy family, are very irue. Those who need help know that they are more sure to get it from some one who is as busy 25 themselves, than these who appar- ently have but little to do. T am going to write a little about what a blessing it is to have the talent of tact. It makes so much difference Sometites how or_what we say or what | we do that it seems to me that Tact |is @ most excellent trait of character. | To mustrate: 2 | " Two men, both church-going men, | wanted to influence a man who had zrown lax in church attendance, and they each wanted to get the man to | change his habits and go to church | agmin. Unknown to each other, they had resolved one Sabbath morning to make an effort to get him to g0 to | chudch with them that day. Ome of | them met the man he was looking for and, hoping to influence for good, ac- | costed him with this salutation: | "Wy dont you go ta church now, as ‘you used 107" The other replied that he did not know as it was any of his business. The first said he ought to be asham- leda of staying away from church, and | added: “Come! Get in and 1 will carry | you right there today.” i The abcsentee remarked: Not much! You will, now or ever;” and “please mind your own business.” The church going men whipped up ihs horse and left him. A few minutes after the other one | who wented to help him came along !in his carriage on the way to church. | He stopped and was very glad to see | him, shook hands with him and said: | T was thinking how lonesome it was | going to church alene. My family was {sick, so that there was no one to go with me today. 1 am so glad to have your company! Get right in and we |can have a nice chat as we go along.” They went to church together, but | there was no nagging or reproaches uttered, but words of love and en- couragement. Each of these two men wanted to do good, but the first ome lacted Tact. It is a trait that can be cultivated if we will consider how we would like to have others speak, or do to us, it s# polish off with carmine powder or Toller’s arth, = ‘Wrinkles around the eyes are often made less noticeable by a gen. tle masage; but this should be done by an expert or a great deal of dam- age may be done by loosening _the skin. = This massage is very soothing to_tired merves and will have a moest refreshing effect on the eyes and en- tire face. complaint among women, and if a doctor is not consulted the best treat- bed and allow nothipg at all to come near her which might wory her. All troubles shouid be kept away and wrought merves resume their natural condition. Red hands affict many women as cold weather adcances. This method is said to keep the hands soft and white: Before golng to bed wash the hands with luke-warm water —and go0d soap; pat them dry on a small towel and rub into the skin the fol- lowing lotion: Mix in & bottle the strained julce of two large fresn lem- ons, the same quantity by measure- ment of rose or orange flower water (not both) and half the quantity of compound tincture of benzoine (by measurement also). Shake well be- fore using. AIR PURIFIER. Charcoal is a certain purifier for musty places. Suspend the charcoal in net bage where bad odors and musti- ness collect and the atmosphere will be kept pure and sweet. Once a week take the bags down, empty them in a firepot and heat very hot. OLD RAINCOATS. Have you ever thought of a way to make use of old rain coats? They make splendid waterproof covers and water- proof covers can be used for various purposes. Such a cover can usually be made from the back breadth of the coat. Cut from the back breadth out from hem to meck and bind the piece thus cut with a bias gold or tape, and, behold, a very useful article is com- plete. A larger, though less trim- looking, cover can be made by cut- ting the bottom of the coat off just below the armholes—if one doesn’t object to the seams. The buttons can be stripped off and the buttonholes dis- posed of and the in the back breadth. ‘Waterproof covers are just the things for rainy nights, when one wants the bearoom windows open. Place a “raincoat cover” on the window sill, with the overhanging edge protecting the wall paper beneath the sill, and there be no need to shut out the fresh air water cannot penetrate them.
