There is no lack of novelty in hand
kerchiefs. Black ones are really being
worn across the pond. but the colored
ones are likely to find a greater favor
there and here. They are shown on a
scale of charming colors. They are of

The steaming process also tends to
make the skin too tender, thereby

good face cream. The proper way to
apply the treatment, though, is the

rinsing well dry with a soft towel.
Care should be taken that in drying
the face the towel should not be used
in too vigorous a manner; better to
softly pat the towel gently over the
skin. This will take several minutes to
dry the face, but one will be repaid

thoroughly dry apply the face cream

cream on for fifteen minutes and as
much longer as is convenient, then take
a soft towel and wipe the cream off.

of soil removed in this way.

some very attractive effects are avail |

being brought out, which will help to |
retain favor for this style by contin-
