HOWTO BE BEAUTIFUL
TAKING PROPER CARE OF THE COMPLEXION.
LucreZia Boz

cellent way to help restore your
natural color and impart a bit of
healthy glow to your skin.
First of all, if you have time.
there Is nothing in the world that
restores health and good looks as
readily and thoroughly as a good
sleep. Any woman can look years
younger after needed nap. II
you haven't time for II. try to
make time. Sufficient sleep pays
you back better interest than praC-
tically any pursuit you might en-
gage in If you passed up the sleep.
And there can be few things as
important to you as keeping your
health and looks.
Therefore, take time TO nap IL
you can. Battle your face in cool
water first, and rest if you cannot
sleep. Whether you rest or not
the next step is this:
Fill a basin full of cold water
and prepare to refresh your face
just as you would a dropping fern
or flower. Simply give it good
drink Of cool, sparkling water.
To do this. put your hair hack
so that you will not wet it. Then
lean over the basin, take a deep
breath, and hold your face in the
refreshing water till you have TO
raise IL so that you can brea the.
Repeat this process a number of
times, then dry your face by pat
ting it gently with soft towel.
II your skin feels sufficiently
restored you may apply a hit OF
vanishing cream to soften it be-
fore putting on powder.
II you feel the need OF some
thing else to further increase it's
freshness before applying the
cream. pat your face all over
with a bit of gauze soaked in
cologne. The alcohol in the CO.
logne helps to bring back more
color and the perfume is soothing
to your senses.
This beauty treatment may work
wonders with your complexion
just when you were beginning to
feel that nothing could be done
for It.

But Joan excused herself and.

When Philip had disposed of Lady
Dunlace he set out to walk home.
Opening the oak on arriving at
his chambers he saw an envelope,
unstamped, lying on the mat be.

It up absently and, entering the

THE STORY so FAR:

The story opens with an ac-
count of the Caskeden family, one
of whom, Edwin-who tells the
story of Princess Mary Tudor and
Charles Brandon holds a place at
the court of Henry VIII. News
of a terrible duel reaches the King.
OF four combatants only two come
out alive, one so horribly disfig-
ured that he might better have
been killed. The survivor. Charles
Brandon, Is much talked about for
his heroism. He appears at tour
ney at Westminster, entering the
lists as others. Mary begs the
King to tell her his name. He
refuses, Brandon meets Caskodea
In London and they become friends.
Brandon tells him his hopes and
plans. Caskoden goes into costa
sizes over the charm and beauty OF
Princess Mary, whose intimate
friend. Lady Jane Bolingbroke. he
learns to love.
