New York, Jan. 6.-One of the most diff
cult problems a woman must solve in her
quest for beauty is now to retain good
complexion and keep away wrinkles.
Wrinkles in the face come in obedience TO
certain commands of nature, and they
can 10 a great extent be banished by fore
ing nature. who gets a little bit TIED as
the years so on, to take a tonic, brace up
and do her work
The circulation of the blood in the face
is not so good as it was in childhood, the
skin is too large for the flesh beneath the
fullness must go some place, so il lies
over in folds; lateral and horizontal
wrinkles come in the forehead crow
tracks branch out from the corners of the
eyes, and the dimpie in the cheek, that
pride and glory of youth, becomes a long
perpendicular line down the face. The
weight of the skin prizes che muscular
tissues apart, ana wrinkles deepen until the
bone is reached. Wrinkles SO deep as
these cannot be removed except by facial
electrical treatment or by a surgical oper-
alton.
But certainly in all this an ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of cure In
other words, it is better not to allow time
to etch any lines at all.
An Austrian scientist after years Of
study, and many discouraging failures
suggests treatment for self-lacial mas
sage, that would seem to be all that could
be asked. Prof. Pick dean of the Clinic
for Skin Diseases in Prague, treated one
of his women patients in the way sug
gested, and the result was 50 gratifying
that he employs the method altogether
In Austria matters of this kind have TO
successfully pass the inspection of the i'm
perial Austrian state board OF health be-
fore they can be put upon the market
There are no exceptions 10 this rule. a
man cannot offer a "kill-corn" TO the
public until his formula is known to the
board of health.
In speaking of America and American
women, the discoVerer of this self-facal
massage treatment who is now in the
United States, said. The American
women wrinkle much younger than the
women of Europe. This IS due 20 several
causes; the climate has something to do
with it, but one great contribution 70 il is
that American women talk too much with
the entire face They are so captivating
ly earnest that they call all the muscles
Of the face, and many in the hands and
arms and body to the aid of their words -
The face seif-massage apparatus con-
sists of three pieces that might be called
rubber rubbers There is also a small
brick of a peculiar kind of pummice stone
that is made in Germany When fat mas
sage is desirable some kind of an emolent
must also be used, These three little
rubber rubbers, which are made of sew
eral composite parts-rubber talkum and
ground almond pits-are of sizes to enable
them to get into all the little cracks and
corners where massage treatment is de-
sired.
The first thing for woman to do when
she wants to apply this self-massage to
her face and neck is to study the consti-
tuition and conditions of her skin. She
must know whether she has a fatty skin
or a dry skin. If the skin is too dry, then
elasticity and power of tension are lacking.
so that the skin is too dry, then elasticity
and power of tension are lacking, so that
the skin cannot follow the movements of
the facial muscles and nerves. and the
consequence is that the skin relaxes and
wrinkles come In this case your skin must
be fed with the lacking fat. To this end
vegetable fat is preferable to animal fat
If the skin Is too fat It seems to exude
paraine the pores become enlarged by
the tallow, pimples and blackheads come
to you as natures friendly Warning that
your SKIN IS abnormally secretng fatty
substances. This superfluous fat must be
removed by dry facial massage Even if
your skin is good your face without a
belmish, you should sull give it a mass
age treatment occasionally; il is as neces-
sary as gymnastics and exercise for the
body.
BY skillful treatment of yourself you
can remove the fatty secretions, thereby
producing a natural, transparent, white
color of the face. The circulation viii be
accelerated. and wrinkles, if not too deep
will in a short time dematerialize.
The average healthy person, when dis
robed. cannot fail to notice how much
smoother and whittier the skin Is under the
clothes than it Is on the face and hands
