has exercised regularly will have
snap and tone which can not BIZ

While methods directed toward ths

must be kept up, some external ap'

mild bleach is made of so grains Of

Lrum. Apply it night and morning
with a small piece of linen and let i

this way.
Every night before going to bed
wash the face with a complexion
brush, hot water and a good soap.

pores are still open massage the
face for fifteen minutes with a good
gold cream. Remove this cream with
a soft cloth, then wash in tepid water
and rinse in cold water to which a
few drops of benzoin have been
added.
The green soap treatment is highly
recommended for removing black
heads. The lotion is composed of two
ounces of distilled ~witch-hazel and
two ounces of tincture of green soap.
Green soap may be purchased at any
druggists. 1t is not a regular cake

a few minutes and then wash it off
with hot water. IL the soap irritates
the skin, as 1t sometimes does, use it
every other day and follow it with a
generous application of cold cream.
After the treatment remove those
blackheads that can be removed with
little difficulty by pressing with the
fingers covered with a soft cloth.
After the blackheads have thus been
removed battle the empty sack of the
gland with toilet vinegar. The black
beads viii return from time to time,
and when they do repeat the green
soap treatment. If you keep up the
nightly cleansing treatments the in
tervals of their appearance will be-
come longer and longer until finally
you will not be troubled at all.
1t is good to have a soft handker-
chief handy with which to rub the
face gently and frequently during the
day. This will remove thed ust col

opportunity to lodge in the pores.
