Health and Beauty Helps
BY MRS. MAE MARTIN.

NJ. L. X: 1t is not half so difficult
problem as you think to keep the
complexion beautiful in summer.
You haven't used the right thing
that is all. OF course, cream that
contains lard or oil will give you a
shiny face" and powders are bound
to smear" with perspiration. You
want a cream that will remove dust
and dirt from the pores and leave
the skin smooth, moist and pliable.
You can make such cream at home
and it will be absolutely free from
grease or oil. Just get from your
druggist one ounce of almozoin, put
it in fruit Jar, add a half-pint of
cold water, stir until dissolved, then
add two teaspoonsful of glycerine,
stir we'll again and let stand over
night. In the morning it will be
the consistency of ordinary face
cream. Almozoin clears the skin
of all pore-dirt and prevents black
heads because ii makes large pores
small. Massage with it to keep off
wrinkles. roughness and redness.
Follow the advice given Georgia
Girl in the next paragraph.
Georgia Girl: Use this liquid face
wash and you will find 1t more sat
isfactory than any powder or cos
metic. Dissolve four ounces Of supr-
max in a half pint of hot water. add
two teaspoonfuls of glycerine and let
cool. Apply to the face, neck and
forearms with the palm of the hand,
and you need not bother again all
day about your complexion. 1t af-
fords protection against sunburn, tan
and freckles, although it Is so dainty
and delicate that its use cannot be
detected. 1t is especially fine for
anyone with dark or oily skin, for
it is true complexion beautif1er and
keeps the skin smooth, soft and vel
vety.
R. T. D. No. 8: You can make your
dull and expEessionless eyes clearer
and brighter If you use an eye tonic
made by dissolving one ounce OF
crystos in pint of water. Drop one
or two drops in each eye whenever
they are tired or feel weak. 1t
strengthens weak eyesight, relieves
Inflammation and redness, and does
not smart or burn. The regular use
of this eye tonic has enabled many
to discard their spectacles-a fact
that will be appreciated by any wo-
man who looks older than she really
is when wearing eyeglasses.
Virginia: You can overcome the
trouble with your scalp If you will
use a hair tonic made as follows:
Get one ounce of quinzoin from your
druggist, dissolve in half-pint of al
cohol and add a half-pint of water.
Rub into the scalp and hair/roots
once or twice a week. This is a sooth-
ing and refreshing treatment for a
hot, hard and stir scalp. 1t keeps
the scalp soft, pliable and just moist
enough to encourage hair-growth.
Quinzoin gives strength and vitality,
stops falling and splitting at the
ends, destroys the germs that cause
