WHY PARIsIAN W0MEN'S
SKINS ARE PERFECT

II is remarked by every visitor to
the famous social center of the world
that the native ladies' have clear, vel
vety skins OF rare beauty. Inquiry as
to the reason illicits the information
that instead of face powders they use
lotions. One that Is decidedly valuable
can be made at home by dissclvins 4
ounces spurmax from the drug store in
either y pint hot water or witch hazel
to which is added teaspoonfuls OF
glycerine. This makes an ideal lotion
for summer use. The spurnax lotion is
a great skin-cleanser and beautifier. as
1t seems part OF the skin and dispels
the rough, shiny. oily condition. Its
regular use will give to the complexion
a touch of refined elegance impossible
with powder or rouge. 1t is splendid for

a special tribune was placed for his
two sisters and niece who keep him

left for the public at large was occu-
pied to the last inch.
The greater portion of the morning S
ceremony consisted in the figurative
bestowing on the new cardinals OF the
| red hat. As the name OF each was
called he advanced toward the papal
! times before finally reaching the feet
of Pope Plus.
The latter for brief instant then
placed on the head of each a huge. red
hat. the same one being used for each
cardinal. and recited the ritual pre-
scribed for the occasion. Following the
removal of the hat. his Holiness placed
on the finger Of each cardinal maS-
nificent gold ring, set with the special
jewels belonging to the particular order
of cardinals to which each had been
created, and closed with the apostolic
benediction.
