MOTORING AND SUNBURN
Soap and Water No Longer Considered
Best Cleansing Agents for Skin
of the Face.

Motor Life: Preparedness should be
the keynote of every woman's packing,
writes Margaret Trowbridge. Summer
motoring gives great pleasure to the wo-
man who knows how to take intelligent
care Of her skin. Sun and air are health
giving and invigorating. but dust and
wind play havoc with the delicate skin
OF the face. Dry, tender skin attracts
less dust and dirt than oily ones, but
both kinds need pure creams properly
applied to offset the attacks of dust
when motoring.
1t is astonishing to think Of the many
women who cling to the soap and water
method Of cleansing the face, but when
the fastidious woman learns the value
of good creams and lotions, soap falls
into the limbo of forgotten things. Make
1t rule never to wash the face in water
while travelling. 1t is a great risk to
bathe the face in hard and different
waters. Commence the day with a good
cleansing cold cream which frees the
pores of all foreign matter and acts as
a delightful skin lubricant. After wip.
ing this cream off, vanishing cream
should be carefully smoothed over the
entire face and neck, which must be
protected. too. This cream aids in re.
tanning the powder on the face and is
not to be despised in a strong wind. Use
the cream sparingly, pat gently until
an invisible film is formed, then dust
on little powder. For use in the day.
time powder of peach hue will tone
more imperceptibly into the skin than a
white powder. Now veil yourself and
be sure to put on a fresh veil every day
"a dust-laden veil will do more injury
to the skin than the wind. At the end
of the days trip 1t is necessary to
cleanse the face thoroughly.
This is the ideal way to repair the
days ravages: First, cover the face with
the cleansing cream. Then with the
finger tips, or a specially made patter,
rapidly tap the face until the cream is
worked in. This tapping movement is
far superior to massage for the face.
Massage Is effective for the parts of the
body where slight stretching of the
skin leaves no Ill effects, but on the
face massage tends to stretch the skin
and to destroy the elasticity of the un.
derlying tissues, thus causing flabbi-
ness and wrinkles. The tapping treat
ment increases the circulation, which
strengthens and builds up the tissues
beneath the skin. Then, too, this treat.
ment helps to remove the tiny excess
fat cells which accumulate in the cheek
and throat muscles.
Let the cream remain on the face
while resting I'm a darkened room with
closed eyes for ten minutes or longer.
If possible. After the cream has been
worked into the skin wipe It off gently |
with Japanese tissue. These silky tissues |
are much more sanitary than towels or |
cheesecloth and are invaluable when |
travelling. Now, with the patter or a |
piece OF cotton. apply the astringent |
with series Of taps or brisk little |
smacks The next step is one Of the |
most refreshing parts of the treatment.

month will approximate three hun.
dred thousand. This suggests a slight
decline.
The number of mules exported in
the fiscal year ending with June, 1915,
was 65,7SS; in the next year 111,915,
and in the year which ends with the
present month. will approximate one
hundred and sixty thousand In the
single month of March of the current
year, the number Of mules exported
was 14,1S6, against 1928 in the same
month of last year. and for the nine
months ending with March, 1885,,
against SS,2S9 in the same period of
last year.
The demands of the war do not
seem to have caused any material
advance in the prices at which the
horses and mules have been exported,
average export valuation Of the horses
was in the first year Of the war, 1921
per head; in the second year, S2OT
and in the third year, $214 per head.
The average export price of the mules
was, in the first fiscal year, 1898; in the
second year, s205, and in the third
year of the war, 1906 per head. Nor
does the expectation of a million
horses seem to have much affect upon
the prices at home
1t is not surprising that the coun-
tries at war find 1t necessary to draw
upon the United States for horses
since we have over four-fifths of the
one hundred million horses of the
world. and far more than any other
single country except Russia, which
has about thirty million, against about
twenty-five million in the United
States.

U. s. MAY SET CLOCKS AHEAD
HOUR AND SAVE DAYLIGHT

NEW YORK. Jan. 30.-A plan to
ser the clocks of the United States
ahead an hour May | to save day
light until September 80. will be
considered by the Daylight Saving
National Convention which begins
here today.
This PLAN said Borough Presi-
dert Marcus M. Marks of New York,
who fathered the idea in this coun-
try, which was so successfully used
in Europe last year, would save the
United States s90,000,oo0 in arti-
fetal light and fuel alone.
This plan has been heartily en-
dorsed by leading commercial bodies
in Chicago, Pittsburgh, New York,
Rochester, Detroit, Cleveland and
elsewhere.
The plan is simply that between
Mtg / and September 80, when day.
light comes SO early, we set the
clocks OF the country an hour ahead.
That gets the country to work an
hour earlier and permits it to quit
while it is still broad daylight, thus
obyiating the necessity for SO much
artificial light.
To this national convention, the
chambers of commerce and boards
of trade throughout the country,
governors of all states, the mayors
OF over 100 cities, the governor
general of Canada and other Canad-
ian representatives, the American
Bankers association, the American
Railway association. the American
Federation of Labor and various
other commercial and financial labor
and scientific associations have been
invited to send delegates and re-
sponses already received indicate
an exceedingly large attendance.
Such leading men as Henry p.

Railroad; and Arthur Lehman Of
Lehman Bros, bankers, favor its
adoption in the United States.
81 call attention TO the great bene-
fits which would accrue to the gem
cral health of the working people
through the added hour for recrea-
ton which would be afforded.
There is bill before congress

to have made a law"
