TO-DAY AND TO-MORROW

From the New Diary of Samuel Pepys. Tae Real "You."’

"To the office and there found a stir, which 1 do inquire into, and find it is a subscription list for wyrelesse, which is to be given to the hospitals, and a mighty good idea, too, though it cost me a shilling or two. { thought amiss of the’ charity of the towne in my iguoranee, I perceive I was wrong. Never have I had better proof of the kindness of the folkes hereabouts, for everywhere they do subscribe that the wvrrelesse music may be conveyed to the poore sick people in their beds in hospital, so that though the patients’ feet cannot be set a-jig-xing, they may have the refreshment of joyous musick in their eares, which shall do much to help them towards recovery of health, which is best served by merriment, lightness cf heart, and the praysing of God's goodnesse,"" How to Make Tea. Put the tea into cold water and bring this to boiling point, or a few seconds longer, according to the quality of the tea and the taste of the tea-drinker. Pour through a strainer into a warm teapot. ‘The advantages of this method are a revelation to anyone who follows it. Cheese Pancahes. Prepare a thin batter as for pancakes, and set aside for 1} hours. Stir in 3 ‘tablespoontuls of grated cheese, make quite thin pancakes, and fry in hot fat. Then sprinkle with a Tittle grated cheese and roll, These are very 200d aS a savoury.

Your face is more nearly you thau anything else iu your whole personality, Your clothes may belie you, your body deny your soul, but your face exposes you. You may have heen born without beauty, but the woman dees not live who cannot be imade pleasant to look upen. Your thought, your impulsc, your courage, your whole way of thinking and living, are in your face, and your intelligence is reflected by the condition of the face, the care you give it, and whatever charm you have. Itvervthing should" be done to enhance the face, but the moment you step over the enhancement, the effect is grotecque. Artificiality is beauty bankruptey. ft is better to lave an ugly face thun an artificial one, Tell-tale Eyes. When yon say to yourself that a woman is beautiful, is it not generally the expression of her eyes: first, and ler smooth contour next? The eyes will tell you how young, how well, how happy she is. If she is not all three, then know that she is ¢xtremely clever. She knows the secret of looking young and beautiful, the proper way to treat the muscles round the exes to maintain their mobility and firmness. Sunken cyes, drooping lids, wrinkles and puffiness under the cyes are the real enemies of beauty. Particular care should be taken of the eyes, to keep them strong, clear, and bright, and to keep the skin round then smooth, firm, and young. Tfyes can he strong, clear, and heautiful to the last day of one’s life if they are properly cared for. There is a method of resting, cleansing and exercising the eyes which is the result of long tesearch and practice by one of the most famous oculists in the world. A special eye cream nourishes the delicate tissues and inuscles round the eves, eradicating those fine lines that come froim strain awd wecrect. Eye cream should be applied liberally at night, patting it in under and above the eves with the cushion part of the second and third fingers to firm and tone the relaxed, tired muscles of the eye. Jook up as you pat under the eves. Devote a few minutes to cach eve, and allow cream to he absortied during the night.--Miss Bueelevgh, IVA, A National Broadcast. The Welsh National Council of Music, the National Museum of Wales, and the Corporation of Cardiff, co operating with the B.B.C., have evolved a schemie for a "National Orchestra of Wales" to perform in public and to broadcast nationally. The B.B.C. undertakes to support the scheme financially, and the Cardiff Cotporation provides the Assembly Rooms at the City Hall on two nights a week with permission to charge for admission at popular prices. The Council of the National Museum of Wales has for one experimenial year given the museum for a daily hour of free music, and on fonr days of each week a midday (for afternoon) orchestral concert will be broadcast from there. The orchestra will begin with a personnel of thirty on a permanent salury basis. Mr. Warwick Braithwaite, corductor of the Cardiff Musical Society and Musical director of the Cardiff station of the B.B.C., will he the first conductor A New Invention. Anybody who wishes to carry on his or her new correspondeiice in inviolable secrecy can buy one of the most ingen?ous machines ever invented. It has a typewriter at each end, with most complicated machinery in the centre. You typewrite the message at one end; it then passes through something over a million combinations, and appears typewritten at the other end as a maze of letters. No one letter ever appears twice the same in the cdde, so that it is impossible to chtain a key. When the meaningless array of letters reaches the proper recipient, however, who is, of course, armed with a similar machine, he types the received message, and it is decnded without the slightest hesitation or error. One of the greatest triumphs for the British manufacturer is a new calculating machine that will add, sub tract, and change pounds sterling info dollars, francs, and lira all at the same time, and perform algebraic calculations with a turn of a handle. Negative Goodness. "Sometimes," says a well-krlown woman novelist, "people are given an easy-going temperament, and have not the energy to go wrong." ‘hat reminds one of the saying of that cheerfuf philosopher, Oliver Wendell Wolmes, to the effect that, just as there were positive blondes and _ negative blondes, the latter being fair simply through the absence of colour, so there were positively and negatively good people, the negative variety being those who had never done anything actively bad. The present generation never reads the Breakfast ‘Table series; but it often happens that one sees the thoughts of Autocrat, Poet, or Professor revived in another form, though doubtless without intentional plagarism. Was it not Gilbert Frankau who spoke of young men, ‘‘Ioo bored to sin, too decadent to bound’?
