It is a tenâ€" m‘mfio,fihfifin stalwart young husâ€" der skin that will do this ,because tender skins are thin and delicate and cannot stand what rougher ones will. Another cause is carelessness in drying the skin after washing it, parâ€" ticularly if it is washed immediately before going out into the open air or drectly after couing in. Very many persons in cold weather dare not wash their hands either beâ€" fore going out or immediately after coming in, for if they do, even though the water they use be warm, their skis will burn so as to be pain{ul, and it will look red besides. They may avoid such an annoyance it they will rub on the hands a little cold cream or camphor ice, allow it to remain on a moment or so and then remove it with a soft, old handâ€" kerchie{, cither of silk or cambric. Another delightful emollient for the hands, arms and neck is fine oatmeal. Put it into a flannel bag, boil it and then place it in the water intended for ablutions, or it may be kept dry in a Jar on the toillet table and some rubbed on the hands whenever they are washed. Honey rubbed into the skin still wet, drying it in as the skin is dried, is also a preventive of chapping. s ya n io. og If hands wore dried more carelully there Would be less roughness of the akin.

Tidal Waves in Harness, A proposal is on foot in Hikurald, in New Zealand, for the utilization of the tidal waters of that place in the generation of electricity. The plan is to bulld a tunnel through & narrow â€" neck of land at Pelorus Sound, eightyâ€"cight feet in length. The rise and fall of the tide at this place varies from wix feet and seven foet to ten feet and eleven feet, and the tunnel would, it is said, comâ€" mand 50,000 acres of tidal water. It is not stated how the power would be generated, but presumably the tunnel would be made below the level 0f the towest ebh tide and turâ€" bines would be tustalled at elvher end of the tuanel. The scheme has been taken up by a local company, which has a capital of $275,000.
