The treatment begins the day before

to open the skin. There follows bath in
lcnzoinated water highly scented.

full of water and adding pint OF spirits
of cologne. This makes very strong alco-
hoic bath, which requires only few
drops OF benzoin to make it milky and pine
Ike in odor.
But this bath Is expensive. A cheaper
hath just az good for the pores is made by
taking a tub OF water and adding to 1t
some good strong bath vinegar.
70 make this bath vinegar take the con-
tents of pint rose jar, spices and all, and
pour over the leaves pint of spirits OF
cologne. Into this put an ounce OF oil OF
geranium and, finally add grain OF musk,
or a very few cloves. Bottle. and add to
the bath tablespoonful at time.
This makes highly scented bath, just
tire thing for the skin. Such a scented
bath gives one brisk feeling which Is
delightful The skin feels firm and the
ache is taken out Of the bones.
The next day the patient goes to the
Spanish pumping parlors, and here the
real cure begins. The Pumping parlors
are for those whose cheeks fall IN or whose
eyelids sag or who have some other defect
of countenance. They are also for those
who are yellow In the neck or very thin,
and for those who are fiat in the chest.
basin Is filled with perfumed steaming
water and the face is held over 1t. While
the water Is poured over the face the hot
water enters every pore. and the pores az
they open seem to drip perspiration.
Then the face Ia dashed with clear hot
water until the skin Is red. And now for
the pumping.
With stick, upon the end Of which en- is 8, a
tendant begins her work. The patient is
seated in high backed chair, where she
may rest and be comfortable, and the
specialist begins to plump out the TISSUES;
Taking theA stick in her right hand the
attendant dips it in a skin food and then
quickly pats the flesh with It,. Again she
dips it and again she pats. She goes over
I'D &c. the neck, patting as she goes, and
Constantly dipping the stick IN tho pore
food. Soon the skin Is saturated.
The paddle must not be too hard nor too
heavy or 1t will bruise the flesh, and the
beauty doctor must not become too jealous
or she will pound too hard. 1t is merely

When it comes to spatting In the cream
there are certain rules which must be fol-
loved and the ist , one Is WITH regsrd TO
these always run along the line OF the
wrinkles, not against them.
If a wrinkle is long and deep, hold hot
sponge to it moment. DIP the paddle n

there ia a different rule. Hold the head
sideways 30 as to bring the paddle on
level with the lowest wrinkle.
Now run along this wrinkle, spatting
