'After a shave you should be very careful to keep your bands away from your face, as tne skin Is more tender then than at any otber time. If you sliave yourself, you should have your razor boned at least three times a year to keep It In good order. You should also bave a good strop, with a canvas part for rough sharpening, aa well as a smoothing strop. In buying a strop It is well to have a barber select it; then you will be sure to get a' good one, says tbe Baltimore American. Before shaving It la well to wash the face with soap In warm water, aa there are apt to be germs in tbe least little bit of dust or anything that might be on your face. One can not be too careful about this, for a cut of the razor, ever so small, is apt to make an ugly sore if the akin Is not perfectly clean. A wash before shav ing will also soften the beard. ; All men should learn to use both bands in shaving. Many attempt to sba ve both sides of the face wltb one band and usually succeed In cutting themselves. In fact, many men cut themselves whenever they attempt to shave. This difficulty could be over come If both hands were used. The . face should be well ' lathered with sharing soap, a kind that does not dry quickly; then tbe lather should be well rubbed In the beard with the tips of , the Angers, which softens it to such an extent that one does not have to con tend with tbe razor pulling, which not only hurts severely, but irritates tbe skin. ' " .. s - . In cold weather tbe akin should be thoroughly sponged , In warm : water and afterward . In cold water, which keeps It from becoming chapped. - Be fore the face has been dried a little witch hazel should be rubbed on; then, after wiping thla off, talcum powder la good. V In case of a cut it Is well to bare a piece of alum at band, which, If you dampen and apply to tbe cut, will close It up quickly, so that, if small It cannot be seen. After you bave finished using tbe ra zor It should be washed, then dried un til not a damp spot remains, then sharpened on the strop before putting back Into the case. If .these direc tions are followed, you will find that It Is not such a disagreeable ordeal to go through wltb , In aha Ting yourself. You will also save time and barbers' bills. How to Make Cold. Creani. ; To make a good cold cream put half a pound of pure lard In half a pint of cold water and heat in an enameled sadcepan till It bolls. Let It cool and pour off the, water.

A ten cent box of fish food will last four fish several months.: Care should be taken not to put more food In the aquarium than (bey will conmmierauy. within the hour. It must not lie and dissolve, as it will make the water milky, ,; Feed very little at a timebest in the morn ing. ' The common theory that the water must be cbunged every day or two Is erroneous, says the St Louis Post-Dispatch, and in cold weather frequent changing of the temperature is abso lutely injurious. ' Of course where three or four fish are kept in a gallon of wa ter, in a dark, poorly ventilated room, the water must be changed often, but urtiAti an a mm rttifti la nlnnul wtiara "H""-"" '""--- "v-- . coior given to mem Dy two sinpie proc tbere is good light or, still better. ! BaetL ... The first is to beat sal am- where the sun will shine on it an hour or two a day, provided wltb a proper proportion of aquatic plants and a suf ficient quantity of sand for tbe same to grow in, there is no occasion to change the water , except when tbe aquarium is to; be cleaned. Cleaning Itself is more a matter of taste than necessity In many Instances. Some people object to the formation of alg on the glass: others, again, prefer to see the glass covered with nlgm and the top of the water with a profuse growth of the plants,, thereby giving the whole a more natural appearance. When the fish remain down in tbe water, It is an indication that all is right, but when they come to tbe top and gasp for fresb air it is a sure sign that the , water is foul or. at leasf, that the oxygen is exhausted. This may happen at any time from neglect of proper care; not .otherwise, except during a long continuation of cloudy weather, which interferes with the ac tion of the plant in the water. - Then change of water becomes necessary. Of all animal bouse pets fish are the least trouble and expense if their treat ment la properly understood. , Bow to Get Rid off DaadranT.

Bow to Pat Thoaa aa4 tk Boot Kind to Bar. The way In which a glove is first drawn on and. shaped to the hands has much to do with both its beauty and durability, says tbe San Francisco Examiner, Unless you have ample time do not have, them fitted at the ihop, but at leisure draw them on aa here recommended, and If possible Wear them half an hour without clos ing tbe fingers. r ... When the bands are at all moist, they should be powdered. Insert all tbe fingers and work the.ra on evenly, leaving the thumb loose until the fin gers are fully in place. Then insert the thumb and work the glove down smoothly over the baud. . In buttoning a ' glove the greatest strain conies upon the first button, so before attempting to fasten this but ton the others, commencing with the second one, then the others, lastly the Do not begin at the tips of the fin-; gers to pull them off. Turn back the wrists arid draw them off Inside out, but on no consideration leave them In this shape or roll them. Turn them right slda out, smooth lengthwise, and put away by themselves, with a strip of flannel under and between them. In buying gloves there are more im portant questions ? than their color Bldered, Black gloves: are generally, : less elastic than white or colored ones, ' and cheap grades are dear at any price, i , Dressed kid usually retains Its fresh ness longer and is more durable than auede,.
