Blazing sun is worse than bitter winds
on the skin. A tepid or a moist sum-
fner has an excellent effect. Ones skin
gains lovely luster under fogs. The
moisture penetrates pores, supplies the
water necessary to we'll ordered skin
and usually whitens and softens the
face.
This IS always given as the reason for
the excellence OF the English skin. 1t Is
q moist climate all through Great Brit
attn and the faces OF the women have
the soft. clear, unwrinkled surface that
the skin should present.
The American climate. except the New
England coast with its salty fogs. has
the effect of drying out the oil or the
skin and burning up the cuticle until it
is as tough as leather.
The American is not an indoor woman.
Her whole creed of life concerns the
open. In the South the women keep out
Of the blazing sun, but in the North and
West open-air sports and the daily rou-
tine of street life keep up as constantly
as though it were winter. Yet the South
ern skin IS not whittier or healthier than
the skin OF the Northern woman.
Don't Stay Indoors.
Now, what can one do to protect the
skin from the drastic climatic effect OF
our summer? It is absurd to-even think
OF sacrificing the pleasures Of open-air
life for the sake of a good complexion;
even the dolls Of life, whose one aim is
10 be pretty wont stand for this, be-
cause 1t puts them at once out of the
fashion.
The woman who doesn't indulge IN
outdoor sports must look on If she eX-
poets to be with the rank and file OF
fashion This is the argument the dolls
make All the other women sacrifice
the face TO the fun.

Men Are frequently
Creatures of Moods

II is well for wives to remember that
man Is a creature OF moods. No man
wants a home with an absent wife. 1t is
no more to him than a hotel. As one
man said; Anna. come home soon, The
clock ticks too loudly when You are
away, and the closets look empty with
out your dresses" She stayed a week.
and that was an age to him. The wOm-
an the man soon tires Of is the one who
boards because she cannot keep serv-
ants She never sews, because sewing
gets on her nerves. She thinks chill
dren too great a responsibility. She is
a late riser, though she seldom is L
home after she arises. She lunches
down town, and expects her husband to
do likewise
Such a woman has no ideas, no Origi-
nality. She is just a married woman

Treatment of Skin Necessary
TO Clear, Healthy Complexion

! for whole day the entire complexion
underwent such 2 disastrous change
that il was never restored.
The one thing TO do, therefore, is to
use the simple aids to a good skin that
are known, but not often practiced.
Cosmetics may serve on a dull winter
afternoon or in a brilliant ball room on
a cold night, but they are absurd In
summer, because they are SO easily de-
tected- Even powder which is neces-
her whole face, must be put on very
carefully when the face is exposed to
the sun.
This much is said in favor of powder
that it is less harmful and more neces-
sary in summer than in any other
season.
American Powder Good.
It Is not necessary to use the ex-
pensive French makes. We have in
America fragrant and dainty makes Of
rice and talcum powder which every
woman should use to keep her face
from having the moist and flushed look
that heat produces.
In winter powder is apt to cake on
the skin and clog the pores, but in sum
mer the natural moisture Of the skin
prevents this action The perspiration
keeps the pores and glands healthy, and
IL should be encouraged Moisture is
necessary 10 a good skin.
When one must be out in the open on
quite hot days or in a binding glare one
should always coat the face with a lit
tie cold cream 10 make slight pro-
tectiVe layer Of grease over the sensitive
cuticle through which the burning rays
will not penetrate.
over this should be busted violet tai
cum powder or the fine rice powder
Care should De taken TO wash the DOW
der, the cream and the dust (Which the
cream catches) from the face. This
should be done when one goes indoors
for the day or evening. Tepid water
should be used and little almond meal
instead Of soap.
The latter Is not a good thing to rub
on the face in summer unless one is
quite sure ii is pure. AS a rule, the
cheap brands Of white soap are the best
for this purpose.

the times to me is the steady de-
mand for better paint and paint

seeking the services Of practical
painters. Where in the past but.

are becoming fewer. and they are;
refusing to; accept any substitute
for the genuine. and any painter
who uses good old white lead and
linseed oil mixtures has the salts.
faction Of knowing he is using the.
highest grade paint that is possible
to produce.
House painting at present often
seems commercial rather than ar
tistic, as the almighty dollar is
the first consideration and often
the most modern houses, both ex-
terror and interior, are finished
with viii, little thot as to proper execu-
ton or durability, and no workman
ever enters a building capable Of
effecting 50 complete a transform
alton as the painter and decorator,
and often does his work amid
surroundings making it difficult
to do even a fair job. Working
together with carpenters and
plumbers, where dust and dirt are
constantly being circulated, yet he
lis expected to do first class work,
and often does regardless Of these
conditions. Is it not wonderful?
Now a few words as to exterior
painting, which has given the aver
age painter no little trouble, by
the use of SO much fraudulent
paint, mixtures and inferior ochre
printing which is the more inn
portant Of any. Don't make the
