S~nnburned Face.

The great temptation after the ex-
posure to the heat and the probabili-
ties of sunburn Is to wash the face.
Water acts like a mordant to set the
dye of sunburn. The skin that might
have possibly escaped with faint red
ness becomes scarlet and even blist,
cred after washing while the sun is
still upon it or after Just returning
from an exposing expedition. Wipe
the face gently with some oily prepa
ration and use powder that is soothing
and the effects of the sunburn will
shortly pass away.
When you do wash the face, use wa
ter as hot as can be borne, dabbing
the face with it, or applying it with
hot compresses-that is, thick folds OF
cloth. In putting powder on the face
do not use a powder-puff that has been
employed to mop the face time out Of
mind, but take a piece of absorbent
cotton or a piece of cheese-eloth
which can be thrown aside after use.
