MADAME ISE'BELL Publish Some Answers to Cor respondents-When the Nose Is
 Too Thick

Vivian writes me a long letter regard ing the woes of a short. fat nose. can say this for her relief: most girls have too thick noses and. by the time the early POS are reached. they generally be- come thinner. Prettiness in the teens is immature beauty and just as the figure is not. finished and formed, the face is rarely classic in line
 If the nostris are wide. you can rem edy this defect by keeping them closed. Watch your face little while daily before a mirror and you will find that dilating the nostris is much a matter Of habit.
 Keep the nostrils scrupulously clean Wash them with soap and water daily and douche occasionally with salt and water or mild solution of witch hazel These mild astringents will prevent any internal swelling of the nose and reduce its size in that way.
