Pomatums.
For
making
pomatums,
the
lard,
fat,
suet,
or
marrow
used
must
be
carefully
prepared
by

with
as
gentle
a

as
possible,

strained,
and
cleared
from
the
dregs
which
are
deposited
on
standing.

Superfluous
Hair.
Any
remedy
is
doubtful;
many
of
those
commonly
used
are
dangerous.
The
safest
plan
is
as
follows:--The
hairs
should
be
perseveringly
plucked
up
by
the
roots,
and
the
skin,
having
been
washed
twice
a
day
with
warm
soft
water,
without
soap,
should
be
treated
with
the
following
wash,
commonly
called
MILK

ROSES:
