CUTTING THE CUTlCLE.
BY Edna Kent Forbes


The professional manicurist is apt
to advise her clients never to cut the
cuticle, but to cut it herself to a harm
full extent. This is because she is
most interested in getting an immed-
lately good result, and does not care
particularly for the future good looks
of the nails. She cannot be blamed
of course.
The cuticle around the nails must
be clipped at times, but if you are
careful l do not think you need cut
this DELEGATE skin more than once a
fortnight, or even once a month. II is
true, as the manicurists tell you, that
cuticle cut too often tends to become
hard and tough in appearance.
The best way to keep the nails nice
looking around the edges is to have
an orangewood stick handy in the
bathroom and to push back the cuticle
every time the hands are washed with
warm water and soap. Even if you
have not time for this and push back
the cuticle only once a day it will be
eonugh. An astringent cream is a
good thing to use because it will keep
the cuticle soft and at the same time
prevent it from growing fast Here
is an excellent one:

Oil Lintene Rose .....2 drops
