Health and Beauty Hints
BY MRS. MAE MARTYR.

Margaret: You can overcome the life

hair and make ii soft. brilliant, and lux
urious again by the use of this simple
quinine tonic: Get one ounce Of quin-
zoln from your druggist. dissolve in
Vigorous scalp massage with this tonic
will stimulate roots and tissues to
healthy action. overcomes dandruff. oili-
ness and irritation and the hair will re-
gain former color. gloss. and life.
Maid: Get a small, original package
Of pyroxin and apply some occasionally
at lash-roots with thumb and fore
finger. This makes short. straight eye
lashes grow long and curly. Rubbing
pyroxin on eyebrows with forefinger
will cause them to come in thick and
beautiful. Be careful and don't get any
pyroxin where no hair Is wanted.
Grace NJ: ! know you will like della
tone for removing superfuous hairs.
With a little water make enough paste
to cover the hairs: let remain two or
three minutes. then rub of, wash the
skin and every trace OF hair will have
vanished. This Is an inexpensive, palm
less way to remove hair or fuzz and no
harm results from Its use.
Irene: Impurities in the blood cause
the condition Of which you speak and
until this is corrected you can hope for
no relief. An economical, old-fashioped
tonic and system regulator can be
made at home by dissolving one ounce
of kardene In a half-pint alcohol, then
adding a half-cup sugar and enough hot
water to make a quart. A tablespoon
full before each meal soon rids the blood
OF poisonous accumulations and gives
you strength and energy. When the
blood is cleansed Of impurities the skin
becomes clear and the complexion takes
on healthy tint.
