Press" This SOUNDS as II II Woulu mean
everyone to be dirty, but it is only a note
of warning. The careless use Of water
on the face, and worse still of carelessly
made soap can harm a woman's face as
much as trouble.
1t is a well known fact that daily mas
sage and the rational use of warm
water and fine SOAP defeats the lines OF
trouble every day in the year, but II
takes very hard work to defeat the
wrinkles of SOAP and water That q
woman's face is often dirty there is no
question. She may not know It, and
would expire with horror If anyone
would tell her so, but nevertheless it is
often dirty when she thinks she is well
groomed.
The cold bath of the strong woman is
not cleansing; 1t is invigorating and brings
the blood to the surface, but it does not
open the pores and take out the dust. In
truth it closes the pores tightly, and they
hold every bit of dirt that is diseoloring
them.
The face. which is more exposed than
any other part of the body. is not given
half the attention 1t should have. 1t is
rarely cleaned rightly and often enough.
BY cleaning, I mean the use of that arti-
Gle, whether it be ointment or water.
which ~cleanses the pores of their dust.
Every part of the body is covered except
the face, and that is exposed to all the
winds, dust, SCOT and smoke and obnox-
ious particles floating in the air, and
yet a woman thinks a simple dash of
cold water over the skin properly cleanses
the face. But it does not. 1t simply
drives the dust in further and makes it
harder to get out the next time.
Neither is it necessary to scrub the
face as If it were a piece of soiled
clothing in the manner some women do.
They take a wash cloth, dip it in soapy
water and rub their faces as violently
as if they were currying a horse This
only serves to make the skin tender.
The hot water woman is worse than
the cold water fiend. For in the cold
water fiend remains that dirt, but the
hot water fend produces wrinkles in a
few years, that win take a decade of
scientific massage to remove
The hot water relaxes the muscles of
the face too much; in fact, it does of the
body also, and the person who uses hot
water on the face and does not sponge it
off with cold, will find that the years pro-
duee a fabbiness which she bewails. The
wrinkles will begin around the ears, then
tbev will go about fine mouth and l,..a4.y
the wrinkles grow into burrows and the
sk,n becomes soft and f1abhv and falls into
lines.
r. is then usual for people to saw.
"yvhat a lot of trouble that woman must
have had in her life" What should real
w he said is. GLOW careless that woman
has been of her complexion"
Trouble tends to make wrinkles. but it
only allows wrinkles TO remain when it
makes the person Indifferent to looks.
ANY person using proper methods and
taking it in time. can keep her face as
smooth and lineless and fresh as a young
girls.
Nothing resnonds SO readily as the skin.
and nothing gets SO little Of ii as the face

Nothing with turpentine or rosin. Soaps
with oil are the best.
When she finishes with this she must
rinse the face with clean warm water,
not a mere dash, but a good, wholesome
soaking Then rinse with entirely cold
water until every bit OF the face tingles
and the blood is brought to the cheeks.
She need never be afraid of the cold,
and she viii have the consciousness that
she is clean Once a week she should
steam her face, but that is another
story.
One of the remarkable things I have
noticed is that country wornen's faces
