Dear Miss Grey: Would
you please tell me how to
have a good complexion?
Three years ago | started
to attend a college in Boston.
All the girls were using pow
der and paint, SO l did, too.
My face is now In a terrible
condition.
Miss Grey. / will appreci-
ate an answer. l crave the
complexion | had three years
ago. HELEN.
A.-Unless you have impaired
the cuticle of the skin very badly,
time and natural appliances will
bring back the complexion you
had.
DO not spend time rubbing your
skin, for you have probably irri-
tated il too much now. The SIM
plest and best method Of which l
know is plenty of fresh air, plenty
of water (bathing and drinking) ,
exercise and a mind filled with
cheerful thoughts. Do not wipe
the face, but pat il dry with a soft
towel. A little rice powder to
protect the skin while re-assert-
ing its functions, il washed out
mt night, will not harm 1t. Ordi-
nary care, with the mind taken
up with wholesome, interesting
subjects will do more than all the
creams and lotions made. -
