THE SUMMER GIRL

"Uhat q pity they can't make a
summer without sunburn," said the
sumner girl illogically.
q would be perfectly willing to en-
drre the heat, and 1 would rejoice i'll
The grass and the flowers if only the
sun did not scorck the hair and the
winds SINCE the skin.
at takes away half the pleasure of
summer time when you know that you
are getting blistered every minute Of
your life and that you are gradually
growing darker and darker under the
strong rays of the pretty sunbeams. It
temps one to go in the house and stay
housed up until fall Here it is, early
IN the season, and my skin a sight"
and with sigh she gathered up her
books and cushions and went indoors.
Many people will remember the days
when a belle did go in the house and
stay in the house until fall-literally.
II was not so long ago, either. But 1t
was before the days of skin lotions,
and before the days of cheap cold
known
The belle of today is not allowed to
sacrifice herself thus. She is compelled
10 come out into the world and aSso
ciate with her fellow creatures. She
must golf and tennis, Sl,e must. boat
and climb. She must run and jump.
She must take part in the tournament,
snd, when not doing any or all of
these things she must take exercise.
Ier Of n fTfri i
sary TO her health and beauty.
The belle of today has her good
times, but she pays for them. she
plays in the sun and she exposes her
skin to the breezeS. But when she
comes indoors she goes through a
course of treatment which repairs the
ravages of the last few hours.
Upon her dressing table there is a.
formidable row Of bottles. And
ranged along a shelf where they viii
be handy for use are pastes and salvels
powders and creams. and all Sorts of
applications for the skin and the hair
The girl who COLTS Las her own Pc
culiar applications. They are, like her
sport strenuous, but she needs some
thing TO take hold of her skin. She
carries with her wide-mouthed bot
lie, which is labeled golf skin lotion"
And when she has come in from the
golf field she applies this TO her conf
pleXion, not forgetting her hands as
well as her face. She daubs it on, and
Il she can spare the time she leaves il
on for half an hour.
The golf skin lotion is made by mix
ing an ounce of olive oil with an ounce
Of glycerine. To this is added half
teaspoon of boracic acid. The whole
is shaken together and is applied freely
10 the skin. 1t is good for burns and
can be used as a wask for the hands
when they have been scorched by the
sun. The same is good for a sunburned
nose and for cheeks that have bright
ened from pretty peach to an ugly
poppy color.
For the golf girls nose there is still
another lotion, and this is even better
IMAM The last. II is made Of olive oil
and lime water, and it is TO be applied
10 the burned nose before it kas had
time 10 blister. II will take out the /
soreness and will enable the golf girl |
10 add little powder TO the Redeemed
member, as she could not do If il were !
sore and swollen.
The golf girl needs a paste for her !

Lnerc Is a nice glove paste made by !
aaolng few drops of olive oil to a
cup Of bran. To this is added half
ledSpoonful of powdered SOAP and TO

upon glove paste.
Ano there is d paste made by stir

great bleacheT for the skin, and. |
lhough disagreeable TO handle, ii well
Iepays one for the trouble. Do not
make too much of the paste. and do
iot get II too moist. In the morning it
should be quite dry upon the hands
"hlle the skin will have absorbed all
.he moisture which il is capable OF
laklng Up. This acts as a great
pumping agency to any skin.
