1t Gives a Pretty Complexion.

women will continue to have to run
to the complexion specialists" said Il
physician, until they learn to apprc-
ciate fresh air better. The air need not
necessarily be- cold, but it must be fresh
1T should be remembered that catch
ing cold depends great deal more on
stale air and draughts than upon cold
air, and the very worst colds are caught
when one is tired and goes out into the
air feeling fagged.
'"To avoid colds and keep ones health
be sure that the air is good. Let there
be free ventilation. With care this can
be secured without draughts or an over
supply of cold air.
Il went into a living room a few days
ago. The wallis were hung with pictures
and the door with tapestries. The win
dows were rightly decorated with hang
ings, and on the panes hung costly trans
parencies. But they were tightly closed,
and though the room was neither too hot
nor too cold, it was intolerably close.

women, but am sure that they would
have had infinitely better health could
they have had better air in which to sit
and work.
mo danger to the complexion need be
feared even from the freezing air OF the
last few days If proper precautions arc
taken. If l were a woman with Il deli.
cate skin. before l went out on a very
cold day l would rub little cream into
my skin and would wear a veil, with
out dots, at least without dots where the
eyes came, and would get one as thin
as possible, so as not to interfere with
my enjoyment of the air. Then would
go out into the weather sure that
would not be roughly used.
A healthy woman, taking such care
of herself, may chap little and reddeu
much, but the clear pink and white OF
olive and red of her complexion will al.
ways show to advantage"

by one of the party with Prince Henry
