HOW TO TREAT a nRY ONE

BY Maria Jeritza.

masseur most refreshing and
beneficial. But / do not advise
regular treatments several times
a week, as they may cause your
skin to depend to much on mas
sage and grow flabby as soon as
it is discontinued.
Don't be afraid of cold cream.
1t is a great friend OF the woman
whose skin tends to dryness.
Cleanse your skin with it at
night, then remove it carefully
and apply skin food, finally re-
moving the skin food also.
In the morning battle your face
with tepid, then cold water; II you
like to use water. Some women
find it drying. Do not use soap
if your skin is fine and dry.
Apply the water gently with the
palms of your hands. Dry yonr
face gently.
A dash Of alcohol applied with
absorbent cotton-or of a pure
toilet water, or vinegar, If you
prefer-will leave your face ready
for powder. This should be spar
ingly applied-merely busted on.
And give your face an absolute
rest now and then from powder.
Rice powder is good for a dry
skin and so is the following
mixture: Venetian talcum, 40
grammes; starch, 65 grammes;
subnitrate Of bismuth, grammes.
Dryness Of the skin may be
caused by some defect in the
working of the sudoriferous
glands, by anemia or a general
rundown condition. So, if after
you have faithfully persisted in
these measures, the skin-dryness
still continues or increases, con-
suit your physician.
But where the health is nor
NAL, sensible living and sensible
care of the skin are the secret of
a beautiful complexion.

beauty as the years pass.
The attractive elderly woman
is even more fastidious than are
her young-girl friends when 1t
comes to personal daintiness.
White hair simply must be clean
and fluffy il it's to put forth
the least claim to attractiveness.
That means washing 1t at least
once every. two weeks, A bit Of
indigo dropped into the rinsing
water after the shampoo will
counterfeit any tendency to vel
low streaks in white hair.
Every six weeks a hot oil sham
poo is advisable. Apply the heated
oil with your finger-tips to your
scalp. Leave it on few hours,
then wash it our thoroughly.
II white hair is straight 1t
should be brushed each day until
it shines like spun silver. But IL
it is naturally wayy, scalp mas
sage should take the place Of
brushing.
Pastel colors are exquisite with
white hair. Cream, gray. violet,
mauve and shades Of rose-al are
lovely. Black is too severe unless
much softened by cream or white

high, and it didn't go very deep

purity, thank Satan for sin"
