have a very strong feeling that electricity
should be applied by scientific hands II
is NOT a thing to be played with IN
an amateur way. | do not mean that
one should have the electricity for years
applied by a professional. but at least
the first treatment should be given by one
who has made a study of it.
That person may teach you dozens OF
things which will enable you to go on
with the work at home. All electrical
outfits are usually expensive, although
some of the galvanic batteries are gotteh
for about S6. Physicians advise patterns
not to use electricity carelessly, but as 70
its benefits there is now no doubt. Wnen-
ever a physician ind that electrical mas
sage helps a nervous or anaemic or eN-
hausted person, the electrical masseuse IS
at once called in.
The treatment is given through Two
sponges of cotton. One is held IN me
hand. the other one passed over the fore-
head and throat of the person in the same
rotary motion used on the face with the
hands. The effect on the system Is truly
delightful.

Many women lave asked me about TAX
ing away the double chin will massage

ments, viii do il. One woman tells me she
has kept down the tendency to a double
chin for five years because Of five min
utes' massage every night and morning
around the throat.
If this treatment helps out the woman
who is inclined to superifuous fat 1t aiso

l heard a man once say that he al
ways looked ct the back of a woman's
throat to see if she was getting old. If
the hollows were coming between the ten
dons then he expected to see a wrinkle
on her face. Now, there is no more need
for a woman to have those hollows in the
back of her neck than 1t is for her to
AVE a double chin.
and a little electricity will work miracles
with those hollows. OF course they will
not fill up in a day, or a month, but as !
have written to several Of the ladies who
asked meshow quickly theyecould make
their faces lovely, the evil of a lifetime
can't be cured by the good of a day.
One wants patience with wrinkles, one
wants patience with hollows. A famous
stomach specialist once said to me that it
was the hardest thing to make people UNI
derstand why, after eating the wrong
things for twenty-five years. they couldn't
be cured by eating the right things for a
week.
Other women have written to ask me
how to take the superauous hair off their
face. When a woman finds that Inc use
of cream causes the down to grow on the
cheeks she had better adopt the method
of which 7 wrote in my earlier articles.
That is. wipe the cream off as soon as
the massage is over. If the hairs are
more Objectionable than lust a mere down
why. there is nothing to be done except
use an electric needle. This is a little
painful. but very ha rmless 7 would have
