1t will naturally be asked, why, Il cosmetics
generally speaking are so poisonous. does not the
government interfere to prevent their mRnutse-
ture and salet The answer Is that efforts to per-
suade Congress TO pass effective law dealing
with the matter have been thus far vain. The
United States Bureau Of Chemistry has almost
plenary powers where proprietary medicines arc
concernedi but cosmetics are not medicines, and
it is unable to touch them except In cases where
they can be shown to be "miSbranded" False
statements on the label bring them within the law.
There is, however, no punishment for the
manufacturer who advertises q poisonous cos

II IS true that an occasional brand Of rouge

The rouge sold in the drug stores is always
expensive. If the women only knew, they could
make it just well and quite cheaply for them
