SOCIETY WOMEN
TABOO FACE POWDER

Returning from a trip abroad. Mrs.
Mae Martyr who writes on health and
beauty subjects for numerous papers and
magazines. gave the following interview :
Yes, | found many changes in methods
Of beauty culture abroad. Perhaps the
most surprising is that society women are
disseminating the use of face powder, for
the reason that powder is not a Jerma-
nent beautiier and tends only to clog the
skin pores and eventually cause rough
and bad compilations. In Paris and Lon
don liquid lotions are all the go. They
do not rub off as easily as powder and
give the skin that soft, vevety effect SO
much admired The formula / brought
with me is made by dissolving A ounces
of spurmaX in l. pint hot water then
adding teaspoonfuls slycerine. The in
gradients are Inexpensive and can be
bought At any drug store. This lotion
is Il wonderful remedy for shiny, oily
skin, and for cold sores
