kkIF only Bessie slowe would thoroughly wash
her face" sighed the April Grandmother "she
would look 10 years younger. Oh, 1 am per-
fectly aware that it is not a nice remark to
make anent the wife of a muti-milIionaire banker
but have known all about her habits since we were
schoolgirls She was always the most scandalously
triing white girl in and I am almost positive
that she never does any for her complexion than
to dab at it twice day with a damp cloth Mark
the result-a discolored, green yellow cutcle GEN
erously sprinlded with blackheads
More than a moistened rag is necessary to pre-
serve the complexion" continued the April Grand
mother in serious n order to get beneath the
upper layer Of skin the face must be rubbed with stiff
brush, and the more severe treatment its flesh re-
ceives the better for it. the soap water will be
the more certain to penetrate to the underlying tissues
and the exercise by aiding circulation will help to
bring the blood to the surface If Bessie Stoves face
were to be subjected that treatment it would peel
off quantity Of loose dead skim but even then her
complexion would continue to look rough and dry
because she probably persists her schoolgirl prac-
tice Of using hard without taking the trouble
TO soften it with pinch of borax or bicarbonate of
soda.
Poor, dear, indolent old Bessie occasionally tries
to account for her wited appearance by saying that
when she growing up during the civil war-she
was Hopscotch Of Virginia and there is no bluer
blood in the old dominion-her people we're so re-
duced that penny remained for toilet fads and
fancies. The rest of were in the same financial
