skin firm. Next, it's necessary to iron
away the innumerable little creases
that mar its beauty.
When the skin is loose it's neces-
sary to build up the tissues. The most
successful method of accomplishing
this is to apply a skin food made Of
nourishing oils. If you don't care to
prepare the skin food yourself. go to
a first class druggist and purchase a
reliable make of cream. Ask your
druggist to recommend one, if you
aren't familiar with the different
makes.
Having supplied yourself with a
generous jar of skin food, proceed to
massage the skin with firm, rotary
strokes so the tissues will be nour-
ished and the wrinkles smoothed
away.
Most women who have neglected to
give time or thought to their per-
sonal appearance, or to the methods
by which the modern woman keeps
herself youthful and attractive, have
an idea that facial massage Is a very
complicated process, and only posi-
BILE to the ones who can afford to
spend generous sums in a beauty par
lor. This is a mistake. Massage is
little more than rubbing the face and
any woman can learn the strokes that
will bring about the desired results.
There are only a few points to be re-
membered and all are very simple.
Never rub the skin without first
covering it with a thick coating of

the neck muscles running down from
behind the ears.
1t really is a simple matter to mas
sage ones face for 10 minutes before
retiring. Another 10 minutes mas
sage in the afternoon or just before
dinner will be big aid to beauty.
In the daytime, however, employ
little different treatment, for after
you've scrubbed and rinsed your face,
which is always necessary before be-
ginning the massage treatment, and
have rubbed it well with cold cream,
you should go over the face with a
soft piece of linen, wiping away traces
of oiliness which the cream has given
to the skin.
Then doubled squares of Turkish
towelling that have been dipped e
very hot water and gently squeezed
should be laid over the upper and
lower halves of the face, and patted
close to the skin, leaving just the tip
of the nose exposed. Replace by
fresh cloths as soon as the heat has
lessened to any degree. Follow with
like applications of towels squeezed
out of ice water to close the pores
which have been opened by the heat.
To close the pores further, and to
counteract any tendency to f1abbiness
or loose skin, an astringent lotion
should be applied to the skin.
Nothing has the rejuvenating effect
of a good massage and the veriest
amateur cannot fail to accomplish re-
suits. Resolve today to get rid OF
your wrinkles.

PAJAMALOUNGING
ROBES ARE In
HIGH FAVOR

When pajamas came in, they were
considered a shocking innovation in
women's mode of dressing.
The same feeling of disapproval
was caused by riding breeches, the
hobble skirt and the low necked shirt
waist. The world has gone through
many phases of disapproval concern
ing any innovation that woman has
borrowed from man. All one has to
do is to glance back through the
centuries to find that mankind, with
the emphasis on the man. has been
in a state of seething protest against
one fashion being substituted for
another among its womenfolk.
However, woman go on their own
way undisturbed by the comments Of
their own. They can always answer
every objection to whatever is new
and mannish in their apparel by re-
minding the sterner sex that nearly
all the clothes that women have worn
for two centuries were originally bor-
rowed from the male.
The adoption of the hat by
woman is one of the simple and harm
less instances And stranger than all
is the fact that the majority of things
that women have taken from men
have tended toward modesty more
than their own clothes.
The tailored suit was a much better
street garment than the half trans
parent muslin with shawl over the
low decolletage in back. Our grand
mothers did not seem to think that
these things were immodest, but if
they were worn today, there would be
a howl of disapproval from one end
Of the continent to the other!
Pajamas for sleeping purposes are
so eminently modest and suitable that
they are given to children in the days
of the nursery and are recommended
by all doctors for those who are frail
in constitution.
So, having accepted pajamas as a
correct garment for sleeping, wal
measures have brought about their
introduction as a substitute for the
perishable, elaborate and colorful
negligee.
The reason for the introduction OF
okuIuy pdJdIudS, Cut III d GRACEFUL
manner and ornamented in a some
what elaborate way, was the intense
cold in Paris and the lack of coal.
Women had to resort to medieval
habits of dressing. We, in our own
country. took especial notice Of the
osstumes of Boris Goudonoff and
Prince Igor of the opera, in that we
might find clothing enough to wear
| at dinner tables in an atmosphere OF
20 above zero.
The French had a reason for in
Producing the heavy satin, cloth and
wooden pajamas, and now that spring
has come they are made of polka-dot
| foulard, Powered chiffon and silk and
several other fabrics that were once
turned into a negligee.
The sketch shows the kind offered
| to American women. It has a Rus
sian blouse, wide, Pierrot pantaloos
with an upturned hem in color, i'm.
mense sleeves cut in cape fashion
and a rolling collar and soft sash OF
colored satin.

Every woman loves a smooth,
beautiful skin and faces her first
wrinkle with a sinking heart, believ-
ing it to be the first indication of ap-
preaching old age. But unless one
has long since passed the halfway
milestone of life. wrinkles aren't the
finger or age.
In many cases they mean an un-
cared for skin or Objectionable
habits of facial expression. Since it's
possible to eliminate both these causes
there's no reason why every woman
shouldn't have a smooth, satiny COM
plexion.
A wrinkled skin is usually loose,
habby skin, and the first step in eradi-
eating the wrinkles is to make the

cold cream, and keep dipping the
fingers into the cold cream jar at in
tervals during the massage.
Rub across each wrinkle, not along
it's line. Remember that you are
ironing the wrinkles out.
Rub the cheeks up, not down. The
object of massaging the cheeks is to
prevent their sagging, which is the
reason for adopting a movement in
opposition to any such tendency.
Don't forget that the points which
require special attention are the hori-
zontal forehead wrinkles, the vertical
scowl between the brows, crows feet
about the eyes, the laughing wrinkles,
the cheeks, the tiny, fine lines which
radiate from the front of the ears and

Very successful indeed from every

for the benefit of st. Vincents Day
Nursery. 1t was under the capable
direction of Mrs Joseph Hancourt
and those who comprised the cast and
gave their services for this extra pre-
4entation are deserving Of much COM

$3.50 was cleared and this will be de-
-oted to the work of the Nursery. This

mothers on the East Side and it is
