Look at those wonderland they are
many-WnO have a nice skin but who
are inclined TO have something of a red
nose. They don't need powder, ard
have never used it, but, strange to tell.
they would rather calcimine their noses
a dead white than to have them show
the faInteSt tinge of pink! And what is
the result? With the greatest care in
buying the best of material, with the
greatest care to wash it Off and out of
the pores before retiring, two things are
inevitable: the natural oil of the
skin dries. aud the scurf-skin or
cuticle soon lies in little scales
and the pores are pushed an
infinitesimal bit larger after each
application until they become open and
porous in appearance. Take vote
among your friends, male and female,
and see which they consider least pre-
posSeSSing-a pink nose, a porous,
SpOnging one, ora Whittened, scaly one.

they thought they must.

But should these arguments prevail,
when can one leave off the use of such
toilet accessories? Now is the accepted
time, ever and always. Just now is the
time we lie ourselves to the mountains

Do not use the ammonia after the first
night if it is possible to get rain or very
soft water. If it is possible to get this

With soap, ammonia and water wash
the face very thoroughly before retir-

soap which particularly suits the skin.
Then with the brush wash and scrub
out all the powder in the pores about
the nose, and after drying rub the whole
face until it glows with soft flannel,
and then rub in very little of the
cream until no vestige of it is visible.
Sleep with this on the face, and in the
morning wash it off with very hot water
and then with cold.

this plan is carefully adhered to, there
