Rivals Her Daughter

(From Social Register.)

A well-known society matron whose
youthful beauty is so we'll preserved
that she is regarded as her daughters
rival in this respect-though she does
not pose as such-attributes her girl
ish complexion chiefly to two things.
She says:
Il am convinced that creams, by
overlooking the skin and pores, tend
to age the complexion. MercOliZed
wax has just the opposite effect. 1t
keeps the pores clean, permitting
them to breathe, and removes dead
PARTICLES of cuticle which are con-
stantly appearing and which give the
complexion that faded look. Whenever
my skin begins to get the least bit Off
color, I go to my druggists for an
ounce of mercolized wax; l apply this
nightly, like cold cream, for a week
or so. washing it off mornings. This is
what keeps my complexion so fresh.
white and velvety.
The absence of wrinkles and flab-
biness | owe to the use of a simple
face bath prepared by dissolving one
ounce of powdered saxolite in a half
pint witch hazel. This keeps the
skin tight and firm
