Some local treatment may be neces-
sary for the blackheads, pimples and
wrinkles that usually go with a red
nose. Now, although we have no hair
on our faces, the little hair bulbs roots
and glands still remain. Sometimes the
hair bulb, in its attempt to again grow
hair, will push itself out like a pimple
on the skin, and its open mouth will be
come blocked with dirt to make black
head.
Steam your face occasionally to soften
blackheads. and never neglect to wash
the face in warm water and almond
mea! or pure soap before going to bed.
Twelve drops Of tincture of benzoin put
,~to the washing water will aid in
whitening them as well.
