Up to the present time it has been
almost impossible to get face powder
to stay on the face longer than it takes
10 put 1t on. You powder your nose
nicely and the first gust of wind or the
first puff Of your handkerchief and
away goes the powder! leaving your
nose shiny and conspicuous, probably
just at the very moment when you
would give anything TO appear at your
best. A specialist has at last perfected
a pure powder that really stays on;
that stays on until you wash 1t off. 1t
does not contain white lead or starchy
rice powder to make it stay on. THIS
improved formula contains a medicinal
powder doctors prescribe to Improve the
complexion. In fact, this powdershelps

The bed was q wonderful thing, with a round headboard, hand carved and French -caned, and it was covered with a delicately lowered and tinted satin spread having shirred flounce which quite concealed the sides of the bed and the rounded end.

 The table and dresser. the hutch and of the room were cluttered with a the mantle the shelves and inc walls treasure of rare bottles and boxes and vases. toilet articles and etchings.
