For the neck, shoulders and arms the brush is quite as necessary as for the face. If the application of a cold cream is desired the skin must be warm; that is, a warm bath, or the application of a cloth dipped in hot water, should be preliminary. It is worse than useless to put cold cream on a cold skin. It does not sink in, but lies upon the flesh, doing no good and making it olly. Indeed, to this may be traced the greasy effect which cold cream has upon many skins. With the skin warm, put on the tollet cream and then use the brush, or even the palm of the hand for rubbing. A good cold cream is made by melting one ounce lanolin in a double bofler. Add three ounces aimond oil and one ounce cocoanut ofl and stir until cold, gradually edding three dropu tincture 3 & possibly successful defense against op- ponents. As this fact became more gen- erally realized, what may be called the “book” discard came into use, and it is to-day probably the most serviceable of the many methods. This consists of rejecting the card you can best spare from your hand. The the- ory reduced to a rule is to discard gen- erally from weakness, but when trumps sre declared against you to discard from best protected suit, which will usually be + your strongest, the argument being that under the circumstances you cannot ex- yect to bring in your long cards and can better spare them than those of your op- ponents’ sults, which you may prevent them from making by retaining guards to such high cards as you happen to hold in them. The customary latter-day hab- it of leading trumps from moderate sirength and even from weakness works egainst the satisfactory result of the logical” discard, yet it should not be a serious impediment to its use, if a little diecrimination and whist judgment Is brought into play. The trouble appears to be in the fact that so many players @accept a trump lead as an indication of strength, which Is very often far from the truth. If the discard from weakness is adhered to until adverse strength is distinctly declared by the play, the oc- casions when misunderstanding will occur can be but few. If the trump lead is sufficlently to partner’s liking to induce him to hold up, he will readily compre- hend that you are discarding under a misconception of the situation, which it is in his power ‘to make clear to you if he_considers it advisable to do so. On the whole the book discard will be found to conflict less than any other with the normal play of the hand. It has the additional advantage of common sense and simplicity to recommend ft. benzoin.

In connection with a tollet cream," the use of a complexion sponge often has a wonderful effect in removing the blotchy appearance of the skin, which is such an aflliction to girl with an otherwise pretty neck and arms When it cc to washing the neck, let nothing satisfy you except & good scrub- bing with a brush, sponge or Turkish bath towel. When you have finished do not forget the bit of tollet cream, which scems to supply molsture and gives back some of the oils which the washing has removed. The woman who goes to bed without grooming her face will wake up in the morning with her skin dry and hard. The £kin has not been cleansed of the dust of the preceding day. In the morning it is toc late to do the work, which should have been done the night before. Use plenty of soap and water, dipping the sponge frequently into the basin so that the full effect of the hot water may be felt by the skin, for the sponge soon cools. Rub with sufficlent vigor to stim- u.am and cleanse the skin, but not to ir- ate it. Always wash the sponge in water cont ing a few drops of ammo- nia before putting it away. Alethea—In puffiness under the eyes, the puffs or “bags” should be rubbed without the cream, for they do not need to be fed. Very gentle pressure and the outward movement will take them away.

Trick 6—The king would appear to be a better lead on the part of West than the low card. He knows that there are not four trumps out against him, and inform- ing the table that he held five he is giving that much gratuitous information to his adversaries, which his partner cannot benefit by, Trick 7—South’s best play appears to be & return of the trump before forcing, as he undoubtedly credits East with one re- maining, notwithstanding his false-card play of the eight TABLE No. 2.
