Janet, Napier.—An old recipe for removing freckles is this, one ounce of alum and one ounce of lemon juice dissolved in a pint of rose water. Apply to the skin just before going to bed, and wash it off with a soft cloth and warm water the next morniag. Alice, Hunterville.—To cure yourself of stooping just remember that it will not only make you unhealthy, but will ruin your personal appearance. Determine to hold yourself straight and you can do it. Expectant, Westport.—Mark your linen for your wedding outfit with your maiden name. You do not use even the initial of your future huaband until it ib yours by absolute right. Perplexed, Te Aro. Commence your letter, ‘Dear Mr Brown,’ no matter what you have been in the habit of aalling the young man. Spoken words ora very different from written ones.
