For example, each separate finger should be rubbed with the towel, beginning at the top of the nail and work- ing or pressing down to the cuticle. The effect of this is to prevent the flesh from gTowing over the nail, and the habit once | acquired wiil accomplish excellent resuits, It is useless to wips all the fingers to- gether, for the moisture is rot taken from the base of the nafls, and so the flesh from constant wetness bacomes thick and coarse. Scratching the enamel also coarsens it and that is why the surface hard sub- stance until soffened by soaking. For the fingers there is no greater mis- take than to file or cut away the nall so low at the sides that the flesh flattens. ! Even fingers that taper naturally may have their grace destroyed by injudicious cut- ting and a point to be borne in mind by every one is this: That whatever oval ef- fect may be gained when nature has mnot formed the finger tips in this desired shape, is by allowing the nails to grow, and shap- ing them above the quick. For just as cer- tain as the flesh at the sides is cut away #0 will the finger spread into an ugly fiat- | ness. At all hazards the nails must be sup- ported at the sides. At the top they may be pointed, and At the bottom the cuticle Chocolate Creams HOCOLATE cream drops may be made with fondant as a foundation, or with confec tioner's sugar. For the latter beat the whites of two eggs to & stiff froth and guadually beat into this two cupfuls confectioner's sugar. If the eggs be large it may take a little more sugar. Flavor with one-haif teaspoonful vanilla and work Now roll into little balis and dry on A slightly buttered platter. Let them stand for an hour of more. then dip into melted chocolate, which is made by shaving five ounces chocolate In a small bowl, then melting it over the tea kettle or in a hot water bath Use for the dipping a clean hat pin or candy dipper. Flavor with vanilia drop the creams in one by one until well covered, then lay on paper to harden. This may be re- peated after the first coat has dried and hardened. It you prefer to make the French fondant for the filling the materials needed are the best granu- lated sugar, & half tesspoonful cream of tartar to & pound of sugar and vanilla to flavor The formula for fondant is always the rame: A pound of granulated sugar_(that Is two ordinary cupfule) one cupful hot water and a half tea- spoonful cream of tartar. This is the easiest quantity for the amateur. After a little experience the quantity £an be doubled. as fondant can be made and kept ready for use. Put roll xed the ingredients into a granite sauce- pan with extra heavy bottom, and stir over a slow fine until the sugar is dissolved. After it has become a clear syrup stirring will cause it to grandiate. Heat rapidly wiping gently to the boiling point. away with a damp cloth any moisture that appears on the sides of the pan. If this drops back into the pan it is apt to make the syrup granulate. 1If any scum arises, remove it carefully After cooking ten minutes begin testing in cold water. If it will make a soft ball when rolled between the fingers, it is 3 right, and must be at once re moved from the fire. Set aside in the pan in which it has cooked to cool Do not try to hasten this by setting in cold water. Let it take its time when cool, not cold, begin stirring en- ergetically with a wooden paddle. In a few moments it will look cloudy then whitten and grow thick and creamy. When too stiff to stir, take in the hands and knead like bread dough. There I8 no chance of over- doing this, for its lightness depends upon the thoroughness of the knead ing. When light and creamy it will be ready for use, though it is better to put dway a day, as confectioners do, to meliow and ripen. Pack Inaa earthen dish and cover alrtight with a slightly dampened cloth. This will keep for weeks if desired may be pushed down until the prooe: just fails of being painful, but the sides must be let alone. If this injunction is remembered flat finger tips will be | common. As it s, many women in trying to secure A taper effect commit the error | that results in width. HOW TO MAKE MARSHMALLOWS Recipe Rather Tedious to Follow, but Will Prove Unfailing in Its Res: | Marshmallows made acoording to the fol- lowing rule are deliclous, especially when tossted over a roaring campfire. Dissolve one-half pound clear white gum arabic in one pint of water. This may, take all day {or all night. Strain and add one-half pound sugar; place over the fire and stir con- stantly until the mixture is of honeylike | consistency. As there is labflity of its ! burning, keep the pan t | eide as vou stir, rever relaxing vigilance. | Bome cooks prefer to cook the syrup in | doubie boiler to avoid mischances, hut It is better to cook rapldly. Now add the | whites of four eggs. previously beaten, and ir as before over the fire for six or seven mirutes, being moet careful not to let it burn. Test by pouring a teaspoonful onto 2 plate dusted with cornstarch. If in moment it seems firm, yet tender, the marshmallows are done. The hot mixture should be rather thin and not adhesive Flavored with rose or vanilla and pour into pans dusted with eornstarch. Square pans are best. The paste should be about three- quarters of an inch in thickness. Set on the ice to chill, and when cold cut into squares with a knife dipped in starch Separate the squares as cut, and pack, when cold, in layers in small tin boxes. ASSOCIATED CHARITIES’ FAIR Basasr Will Be Given in the Court ullding April 15 and 1 The Associated Charities of Omaha and South Omaha 1s to hold a bazaar and sale in the rotunda of The Bee building on Friday and Saturday, April 16 and 16.

Henry Savage Landor's book, “In the Forbidden Land,” gives a strange plcturs of the medical practices of the Tibetans. The author witnsssed a ‘‘cure” for lum- bago which, even to the savage mind. must have been indefinitely worse than the disease. The seat of the pain was first marked out upon the skin with the red- hot point of a burning stick, and upon each wound was placed & cone of sulphur and salipeter, and thess were fired. “At this juncture the animation of the onlook- ers was not fo he compared with the agita- tlon of the patient. who began to feel the effects of this primitive remedy. The fire splutiered on his bare skin. The cure was doing its work. The wretched man's mouth foamed and his eyes bulged out of their sockets. He moaned and groaned making desperate efforts to unloosen the bonds that kept his hands fast behind his back. Two stalwart men sprung forward and held him while the medicine man and ail the women present. leaning over ths prostrated form. blew with all thelr might upon what remained of the three smoking cones frizziing away into the flesh of the vietim. “The pain of which the man eomplained seemed to encircle his walst, wherefora the strange physician, having untied his patient’s arms from behind and retied them In front. began his measurements again, this time from the spinal columa Chik, ni, sun..'

The poor fellow soon had a regular circle of severe burns around his body Needless to say, when, two hours later. the operation was over, the sick man had become a dying man. With a view to ob- taining a few hints on Tibetan medicine from this eminent physiclan—the Tibetans held him in great esteem—I sent him @ small present and requested him to visit me. He was flattered and showed no de- sire to keep his methods a secret, but even pressed me to try some of his unique rem- ~ies.
