~ VERY woman breads the day
Il when her face will show the signs
Of care and worry in wrinkles
and crows feet and all of them
are interested in the easy ways of pre-
venting facial defects Many directions
have been given from time TO time con-
eerning the ways of drying the face after
washing. The towel should always be
rubbed in an upward curve around the
mouth TO prevent the natural tendency
toward the dropping at the corners. and
the checks should be rubbed with a cir
cular movement, while the forehead. Of
course. one dries by running the towel
straight across 10 obliterate those wl-ink-
les between the eyebrows All of these
habits are very good and once acquired
take very little time. but there are other
things that may be done that would help
10 cure the wrinkles already gathered
and that also occupy but few minutes
of the day.
Applying soapsuds to the forehead is
said TO cure these temporary wrinkles
acquired by reading or studying in a
poor light or by worrying over minor
financial troubles It takes but a few
seconds Of the time occupied in washing
the face and the effect is good.
Perfumed water is very beneficial in
preventing and curing crows feet caus-
ed by age or worry. and it should be ap-
piled with soft sponge night and morn
ing. This. too. takes only a very short
time and is well worth the effort. The
same cure may be used for the wrinkles
in the forehead. which are. after all. the
most prominent OF any; and after the
water has been used a damp bandage
tied tightly around the head will help
smooth out the skin. AS this may be
worn while reading or dressing it should
not be too difficult to try. and a half
hour spent with the forehead bound up
will make an immense difference in the
many minute wrinkles caused by the
ordinary friction OF daily life.
1t is very good plan 10 form the
habit of smoothing out the skin over the
forehead and temples before going to sleep.
for while unconscious the skin OF the
forehead will naturally relax, and a lit
tie rubbing done in the early part Of the
night will give it the impetus required.
