FOUR KINDS OF WRINKLES.

tissue paper in her hand, crinkled it
up fine and threw it on the table. It
lay a crinkled mass.
"That," said she, ''is the way the
skin looks. Wrinkles may come
slowly, or they may come suddenly.
There is no rule which covers the
wrinkles. 1t may take year to de-
velop in woman's face or it may
come in a night.
wrinkles are chiefly of three
kinds. The most common are the
money wrinkles. They are little fine
spiderlike traces around the eyes and
at the corners of the mouth. The
housewife who puzzles over her week
ly accounts gets them just as certain
ly as the woman of affairs.
"Women who worry have a queer
set Of wrinkles, which are not to be
compared to wrinkles caused by any,
thing else in all the wide world. They
may run all over the face and they
are apt to be particularly deep and
disfguring.
"The woman who lives a dscon-
tented life will have burrows going
almost from the corners of the eyes
down to her chin; she will have deep
lines reaching from the corners of her
mouth to her neck, and there will be
ugly creases around her ears.
"There are muscles in the face
which are Influenced by bad tenn
per. The woman who sets her teeth
in a determined way will make her
jaws ugly. The habit will broaden
her face, make her lips narrow and
make a great many curves around the
corners of her mouth and about the
tip of her chin.
"The eyes of the disccntented wo-
man have dull, tired look, and this
means wrinkles around the eyes and
bags under them.
"Automobiling is responsible for
great many lines that are not 70 be
classified in any other way except as
auto lines. One of my customers has
the automobile countenance.
Between her eyes there are three
up and down wrinkles that look al
most like harlequin lines. They are
just such creases as the clown paints
on his forehead when he wants to
make his eyes look queer.
"'It was eye strain, she explain
ed as she lifted her veil and showed
me the wrinkles. I looked right
straight ahead at the glaring white
road until these came into my face
"The first step in removing auto
mobile wrinkles is steaming the couii-
tenance. I takea little electric stove
and 1 put a basin of warm water up
on it, and as the water heats letthe
woman hold her face over its steam.
The vapor penetrates the cuticle and
softens it, and then spray her face
with hot water to take out the dirt.
''Most wrinkles are caused by dirt,
but if you tell woman this she will
get angry. But if you were to soften
her face with little warm water or
steam and spread a lather of soap or
soap Jelly over it and then wipe the
whole thing off with some hot water
both you and she would notices great
difference in her complexion.
'Most women are afraid of soap.
They think it poisons the skin and they
don't stop to reason that soap may be
very good-if it is good soap.
'Most women go out too soon after
washing the face, and this is the cause
of great many wrinkles. A woman
after washing her face should stay in
doors until her face has had time to
cool, so that it is not subjected to a
sudden change of temperature.
eff it is absolutely necessary to go
out she may rub little cologne over
her face to tighten the pores, or she
can touch it with benzom and water.
Or, if she be wise woman, she will
keep a raw cucumber in the house with
which to strengthen the skin against
the quick changes ofthe temperature.
"There is a professional beauty in
New York whose dressing tables re-
sembles vegetable stand. There is
a cut lemon with which she takes off
stains.
"The lemon is mixed, half and half
with water, followed by a touch OF
cold cream. In this way she wards
off ugly little lines on the forehead
and beneath the eyes.
"She rubs her face during the
strawberry season with the purejnice
of the strawberry, which makes her
look pink and very pleasant. She
has vegetable for almost every con-
dition of the skin.
eff her forehead is furrowed with
auto lines or creases she takes Gu
cumber and cutting it in running
slices, she binds the pieces on her face,
letting the juice dry in. The skin for
a while has queer, stiff feeling, but
little massage will timber it up.
"Few women realize that the skin
is like a piece of tissue paper. 1t
creases readily and the fine lines re-
main until they are rubbed out. They
can be ironed out with warm iron
which should, however, be used over
a damp cloth so as not to injure the
tissue, or they can be rubbed out with
the tips of the fingers.
cit is a good thing to experiment
with tissue paperif you want to know
how your skin will act under certain
conditions.
"a woman face should be delicate
ly curved. There should be no wrin-
kles in it, but it takes great self-deni-
al on the part ofa woman. There are
women who must worry and must fret,
and these women will surely have
wrinkles"
