The Signs of Age More Easily Prevented
Than Cured.
Our Handmothers used to date the
period Of lost girlhood by the first
wrinkle. Alter fatal wrinkle had been
seen, they considered that youth had
forever fled, and -haJ all that was left

Many are the methods that have been
tried To- make the skin smooth and fair
again. Some fashionable women only
use cold water To- wash with. some use
only hot. while others begin with hot
and end with cold. and yet each of these
contradictory methods seems to have
been q success, TO judge by the results
we see.
The fact is that no two skins are quite
the same, and each requires different
treatment. Hard water, whether hot
or cold. IS very likely to cause wrinkles,
and should always be boiled and filter
ed before using.
