Keep Hubby Guessing"
Her Advice To Wives.
Retain Looks, But Don't Let Him
Know How, Expert Warns.
(From New York Herald).
All is fair in love and war.

All is fair in love and war
1t is war to get husband; it is love
that keeps him, no matter what device
a wife may use. eff she deceives him
into thinking her prettier than she is,
such deceit is the highest art of love-
said Nine. D'Mille. who talked here to-
day to 500 fashionable women on How
to Keep Husband
Scores and hundreds deserve to lose
their husbands said Nine D'Mille
ANY woman who will go to bed with
cold cream smeared a quarter of an
inch thick on her face ought to be
ostracized by her husband. It is dis
gushing habit, and unnecessary"
rs the habit pretty general?'' Mime.
D'Mille was asked.
Far too general was the response
Lots of women lose their husbands by
taking too little care to conceal the
processes by which they retain their
beauty
ANY woman ought to keep her 1lus-
band guessing all the time. He ought
to have to say to his friends. Well, my
wife is the most amazing problem I
know about. She always 1oks about 10.
and she neither paints nor powders +"
Mime. D'Mille continued ANY wo-
man can do this if she will dissolve d
small original package of mayatone in
a half pint of witchhazel and massage
the face, neck and arms with this solu-
ton three or four times a week. She
will shortly find she has a lovely, soft
comp1exion-and then the best of it all
is that mayatone prevents the growth
of hair. and is absolutely harmless to
the most delicate skin. Make the solI-
ton yourself
Stay beautiful and don't let him
know how you do it."
