) 1 I The Hands Tell the Tale. It is said there is no more cer tain mark of good breeding than the condition of a person's hands. This Is no doubt to some extent true, but the lady whose home duties require her to do general house work has great difficulty in keeping her hands presentable, which is surely no re flection on her breeding. Fortun ately there is a means by which she may keep her hand3 looking well. The great remedy for this purpose is "PERSIAN SECRET," which from the fact that it is neither greasy nor sticky, makes an ideal application for use while at work. It may "be applied while doing fancy work and will be found to make the hands imooth and soft. Prepared and sold by Sabln, the druggist.' Home Grown Tokuy Grape Vines.
