 Mrs H. c. F.-Flabby muscles are starved muscles. The way to nourish them is by manipulations, or massage, that will create healthy flow of blood. which is necessary to provide food for the muscles. It has been demonstrated over and over again that massage will restore withered limbs to a normal con- dition. It will do the same for withered faces. but it takes time, skill and pa- tience.

 Miss Weary.-If you are very nervous and tired when Friday night comes af- fny, ~A |, chang eof scene? Nothing is more rest full. Spend the night in the country now and then if you can. If you must remain at home try to get little extra rest, re- tire earlier and rise later. or spend some hours Saturday reading 8 novel of TO- nance, one with little or no plot. Place yourself in an easy chair, for 1t will do your eyes no good to read lying down. Drench a handkerchief with some deli cately scented toilet water, and draw it over temples and brow. Its cool frag. rance quiets overwrought nerves in manner that is simply delightful. From a hygenic point of view. if from no other, delicate odors should be more used. They stimulate and refresh fin a wonderful manner.

She has made study of man with out doubt A man will tell you confident ly that "fiattery always goes with wo- man." Well, perhaps it does. Now. to the more practical part of your letter of inquiry: A thick, sluggish skin, with blackheads, should be washed daily with hot water and a pure soap and a complex ion brush or flesh mitten used afterward. Then rinse with clear, cold water If the skin is very dry rub 1t with a little cold cream. At night cleanse the face with cream instead of washing it again. Tepid water agrees better with some sensitive skins than either hot or cold water.

 Sister EIsie-For wrinkles in the fore head. bind cloths, wrung out of hot wa ter. on the brow, and then lie down for about twenty minutes. If flannel band is bound on over tho cloths they will re- tain their heat for a longer time. Don't l imagine. because wrinkles and gray hair have come, that you are too old to be | young. Live a young life. which has | tendency to keep up your youthful looks. 1 Women, while not being kittenish, need l never be old in ways. Long illness or | excessive grief naturally age a face. So then be generous to yourself; try to live | a contented life; it is better so, no mat ter how serious your trouble may be, | Wrinkles that cannot be effaced must be borne. but any care that can be taken of the skin to prevent them is quite legitimate.
