WITH THE BEAUTY DOCTOR
Some Hints as to Keeping and Getting
Well and a Word About Aids to
Good Appearance.

The teeth are usually brushed
across; they should also be brushed
up and down, as this stroke will re
move any foreign substance that tho
cross stroke has missed.
For a rough skin lather the face
we'll with a good soap and dron or
two OF glycerin, rinse off and dust the
lace with oatmeal, rinse again and drv
with soft towel.
The exercise of keeping the elbows
straight and throwing the arms back
until the back of the hands just touch
below the waist line is good to
straighten round shoulders.
In researches on different methods
of preparing food a physician has
proved that both beef and fish are
more digestible in the raw state than
cooked, that beef is in general better
digested than fish and that fish is
more digestible smoked than in any
other FORM .-..
