Superfluous Hair
Will you tell me if there is any way to
permanently destroy a disfiguring growth of
superfluous hair on my face and arms ? I
am 55 years old and the growth is very bad.
My daughter who is 22, is similarly troubled.
T have been told that depilatories are worth
less and that nothing is effective except the
electric needle which I hesitate to try, as 1
am told it is painful. I should be glad if you
would give me your advice.
CHARLOTTE K.
You are wise to avoid the electric needle.
Tt is a dangerous operation, and besides be
ing painful, often leaves severe scars. I
have frequently stated in these columns that
it is better to endure the annoyance than to
suffer the pain of the electric needle. I have
also warned inquirers against depilatories,
which are worse than useless because they
cause the hair to grow out thicker than be
fore.
Recently, however, I have received some
enthusiastic and reliable reports about a new
method (originating in Japan) which has
been successfully used in this country. I do
not know its name but a friend of mine who
received a complete cure by its use, told me
that she would gladly furnish full particulars,
without charge, to anyone who would -write
her.
If you will write to Mrs. Osgood, Apart
ment 470 K-123 East 27th St., New York
City, N. Y., enclosing a two-cent stamp for
reply and mentioning my advice, she will
send you quite free of all cost, complete in
structions which will undoubtedly enable you
to be permanently rid of all trace of the
bemish.

THE BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN DAYS.
They are with us again. Although
there is a melancholy about this sea
son of the year, yet there is much to
inspire. The pleasant weather after
the warm summer invigorates and we
feel more like taking hold of life
again. Then the flowers seem bright
er and richer in color; and after re
freshing rains the roses bloom again
and the dear pot plants come out and
take on fresh growth and demand our
attention. We just have to provide
for their winter’s protection —we can
not bear to see them killed by the
cold. Yes, they must be provided
with plenty of jardinieres and stands
and taken into the hall and dining
room until real freezing weather
comes, then a conservatory or pit
must be made. The deep pit is but for
preserving geraniums and other ten
der pot plants. True, it often fills
with water, but this can be dipped or
A REMARKABLE SPRING.
Located in the heart of the mineral belt of
Piedmont South Carolina at Shelton, and
issuing from a granite fissure is one of Na
ture’s blessings to mankind —Shivar Mineral
Spring. Analysis shows this water to contain
medicinal properties of the highest quality, in
unusual quantities. Hundreds of gallons
daily leave this spring to physicians and
others on missions of relief in cases of stom
ach, liver, bowel and kidney disorders like in
digestion, constipation, rheumatism, gall
stones, uric acid poisoning, etc., which dis
eases it relieves and cures with wonderful
success. Mr. N. F. Shivar, owner, makes
the following offer to sufferers: Deposit $2
and he will ship 10 gallons of the water
with the understanding that it is to bene
fit you or your money back on receipt of
empty bottles. Mr. John P. Rhodes, Lynch
burg, Va., writes: —“I enclose money order
for $2. Please send me 10 gallons of water
quickly. I want it for rheumatism. I
know several who were cured of rheumatism
with this water. Address N. F. Shivar, Shiv

drawn out. An osnaburg cover
stretched tight is the best covering.
This lets in light and air and keeps
out cold, so in very cold, rainy weath
er it can be kept closed for a number
of days. For half-hardy plants, the
brick conservatory with glass cover
is best. The pit is for private homes,
of course public florists have their
greenhouses made to suit different
kinds of plants.
Floriculture is enchanting especially
co home-loving ladies, but there is
danger of becoming too much inter
ested in this fascinating employment
and over-doing and over-working.
Large pots should be lifted by a man
and a delicate lady should not stoop
and bend and become overheated.
Cut flowers give much pleasure as
the days grow cooler, and they last so
long in cool weather. Chrysanthe
mums can be kept a month by chang
ing the water in the vase and break
ing the ends of the stems. Roses also
