! 1 would undertake to perform almost mir
| acleS through the wonderfully intelligent
and skillful hands of the lady who has
| given Miss Parks treatment. l hope Sun
| day World readers, thousands of whom
have written me asking for directions for
| facial massage, have preserved the in
| structions printed last Sunday and will
benefit from them, as they each may if
they are carefully and faithfully followed.
Up to this time of writing Miss Park 5
hands have improved very little by the
treatment given them, although she has
had an excellent manicure. Long years
of neglect and Of arduous work have left
marks that will take months to remove
Miss Parks will never have beautiful
| hands. She will with care, have white
and soft ones, and in a few weeks she
will have nice looking nails. Her hands
have already responded somewhat to
the simple treatment they have re-
ceived, so far as their getting softer is
concerned. When she became the Sun
day Worlds patient they were hard
and masculine. / am not satisfied with
them. I shall undertake next to make
them white, and this desired end will be
effected principally by the wearing of
gloves three sizes too large at night
These gloves are first ripped open down
one side and spread with a paste made
as follows:
Sweet almond oil, two teaspoonfuls;
glycerine. one teaspoonful; rice -four, one
teaspoonful lanoline .one-half ounce;
yolks Of three fresh eggs; rosewater, one
ounce; tincture Of benzoin, thirty-six
e.
forms a paste: then spread upon the
gloves. which are reserved afterward
We have had to return to the electri-
clan, as I expected ,as the first treatment
was not entirely successful in removing
the superf1uous hairs from the elongated
eyebrow. A small tuft of black hairs
appeared near the nose last week. There
are not more than fifty hairs that have
returned. These will each have to be
treated separately.
The irritation caused by the expulsion
of the blackheads has ceased and Miss
Parks skin shows an extraordinary i'm
prOvement, but I am not satisfied with
the appearance of it.
For one week Miss Parks used a lotion
at night made of boracic acid, one dram;
distilled witch hazel. two ounces. and
glycerine two ounces; it is applied after
the scrub at night. She is now using
lotion which 4 hope will remove the
yellow spots which do not appear 10 be
exactly freckles, but rather small moth
patches, or a group of freckles giving the
appearance of a moth patch.
This lotion is made Of bichoride OF mer-
curry. ten grains; distilled witch hazel. two
ounces; rose water, two ounces; it Is ap-
piled lightly to the spots two or three
times a day. If any of the readers Of the
Sunday World wish 70 have this formula
made up, it should be remembered that
bichioride of mercury is an active mineral
poison and the mixture should be kept
away from the reach OF ignorant persons
and young children.
"One thing Is certain said Miss Parks

myself and I shall never regret taking a5-

discouraged. Ny health IS so improved
