LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
Novel Skin Treatment for the Winter Girl

On those days when one has been
out in the cold for a long time
and ones skin feels as if it were
going to crack in a thousand places,
it is wise idea, to don a face mask
upon returning home.
Before shrouding your face in this
cotton covering, smear the cuticle
over with some healing cream and
minutes, wiping it off then with a
ball of absorbent cotton. This is the
best and simplest way of getting the
dust and powder off the skin and out
of the pores
You next cover your face with
thick coat of the following cream
which is a great favorite in New Eng
land where chapped hands are not a
rare occurrence. This cream is made
by mixing together in the usual way
fifteen ounces of cotton-seed oil, three
and one-half ounces of spermaceti,
three and one-half ounces of white
wax, twelve drops of oil of lavender
flowers and seven and three-quarters
ounces of rose-water
What next? Why, you must imme-
diately don a, face mask-which is
made of heavy cotton cloth with holes
cut for the eyes, nose and mouth
It is also equipped with strings which
fasten at the back of the head.
My beauty patient must now resign
herself. to sitting quietly with a book
or a bit of sewing in her hands until
full sixty minutes have flown by
When it is time to remove the mask
hasten to the bathroom and wash off
the soothing cream with floods of
hot, soapy water. As soon as you
think your face is freed from the
cream, attach a bath spray to the cold
water faucet and deIuge your face
with the icy water. If you are not
a cold water hend wou will doubtless
with disfavor but do not omit it, I
beg of you, as it it is essential that the
relaxed skin should be gotten into
