Washington.-Dr David II. Reeder,
Laporte, 1nd.-Dear- Doctor: 1 am q
member of the Home Health club, and
| my record number. is 10,446. N l am en-
gagged in the work of giving facial mas
sage. For some reason unknown, the
majority of the ladies here, and even
children, 10, IL and Is and. 16 years OF
age, CONTRACT their foreheads, or per
haps should state that the muscles
OF their foreheads contract and cause
deep wrinkles that I cannot remove by
massaging. Since. coming to this coast,
the muscles Of my own face, and espe-
cially my forehead, contract, and
would be SO grateful to you if you
would give me method of treatment
for the muscles Of the forehead so that
they would relax and stay relaxed, and
not contract involuntarily. - -. ~. :.
Will witch hazel have a. beneficial
effect upon the face and neck? Any
information or advice that you may
give me upon the treatment Of the face
and neck would be thankfully re-
ceived. .-. 49,. Il. W. d.. ill., Il.
From one who is grateful and thank
full for the privilege and opportunity
Of reading your Home Health club lee
lures. M. r..
Il do not believe that you can secure
any external application that will over
come the tendency to contract the mus
cles Of the forehead; it is caused in
some cases by the light acting upon
the nerves Of the eyes, and also by the
wind; the muscles and nerves are con-
stantly guarding against particles of
dust and flying debris. II you will ex-
pertinent a little you will find that this
contraction does not continue while in
the house, or out of the wind. 49, The
wind and sun together are the cause
OF the difficulty. In many cases it IL
overcome by the use Of properly fitted
glasses, in other cases it will only he
overcome by removal; to a mild climate
where the air ;is more soothing, and
the light not SO intense. You would not
find this condition in Virginia and
many other southern and eastern
states, although you would find. more
Of it in Texas, Kansas and Nebraska
than where you are. =~.+ -
= think you will find a great deal of
benefit from the use Of a face mask .of.
rubber. Witch hazel extract is ex-
cellent for the face. ALSO witch hazel
and glycerine mixed IN equal parts.
I thank you for the interest in the
Home Health club. sr....,.3 49,, .s...~...,r
