For the Toilet.

While you are preparing to retire for
the night health and beauty sleep, do
you wash your face thoroughly?
1t Is absolutely necessary that the
CRIME and soil accumulated on the
countenance during the day be rcmov-
ed--thnt Is, II you are doing things TO
keep your complexion in good order.
OF course you take bath before re-
firing rs means of better rest and
consequent good health. Certainly
along with the bath you wash your
face, but perhaps you dash 1t with cold
water, while telling yourself that "the
cream Will do the rest"
This is mistake. Wash the face
thoroughly and then apply the cream.
Wipe Off the first application OF cream
and you'll take off more CRIME with 1t.
Then rub cream into the cuticle to
nourish the flesh Keeping the face as
clean as possible Is first rate assistance
In removing blemishes and great
help In keeping them of.

LITTLE HINTS AND HELPS FOR

The Careful Woman Rests Her Clothes,
Thereby Keeping Them Always
Fresh and Free from Shah
biness-Other Items,

The careful woman has taken to
resting her clothes.
Nothing induces shabbiness in coats
and gown more than the lines and
wrinkles which show they have been
worn and reworn.
Walking creases and sitting creases
make garment old before it has
done it's duty.
Men appreciate this fact better than
women. That is why man can al
ways appear well dressed with a
small wardrobe, because every week
or so he makes change of suits and
sends the one he has been wearing
to the tailor, and never by any chance
allows a wrinkle to become fixed in
his suit
Not all women's frocks can 60 to a
tailor, but she can manage to change
her clothes often enough to give them
an entire rest. And it is real economy
to do so.
Here is practical plan for clean
ing and pressing skirts: Brush them
first, then whisk off with a clean
brush dampened in ammonia and
warm water.
