"... , MAGIC 6 A VEOITABLai -Li Yet all these things are true, and the magician who works these mar- vela is no other than the humble, and despised carrot, the foundation not only of French potages and -New England "boiled dinners,'' but also of our grandmothers' excellent complexionsi - This1 carrot com plexion is, too, a beautiful one, clear white, shading into roso pink -at-the . chwhs and absolutely with-' out blemish thronghautrBesrpfllr it is easily " withm the-reach - of every one not suffering from a con- ; atitutional complaint affecting the , ' -skin. . But there is no real magia now--; adays, and so there is a drawback even to this. One must, above all, have patienoe, and for months r two or three at least accustom one's self to a daily" diet of a vege- - table by no means palatable to alL Every day no fewer than four ounces of carrots must be taken, and each day missed is equal to ' two in the bad effect it has.

Not once, nor for ny occasion, must the or- ; deal be"ahirked. . :"T " VABIETT IS POSSISLS t " , '. i. . It may, however, be lightened by infusing variety into even so mo- notonous a diet. The plain boiled vegetable soon palls, but any num ber of preparations may be devis ed to take its place. To begin with, the German carrotswhich are small, tender and infinitely , more palatable than our native ones can be purchased-in ..tins, and at an exceedingly low" price if bought by 'the caiie. . This at once elimi nates the tiresome labor of prepar ing the daijy supply.- Hut even our American roots may be disguised. Boiling and frying are not by any moans the only alternatives. They .nisy be creamed, mashed . or cut into cubes with half the quantity of apple or celery, and droned as a salad with oil, lemon juice and pap r tika.

This much, at any rate, she may be sure ' of by no other means can she to easily and inexpensively obtain a complexion that will not rival, but surpass, that of her daughter or granddaughter.
