the night before, if convenient. Lather
several times, rinsing between each
lather, so you will remove all of the oil
from the hair. A great deal of the
collection should come away from your
scalp in the lather, as the oil treatment
will have softened it. Any one with a
case of dandruff as bad as yours, and
already with a small bald spot, should
consult a scalp specialist as soon as
possible.

closed on the spot, hair cannot grow
there again. If this is not the case, you
will grow new hair with an improved
condition of the scalp.

Smoothing Away Wrinkles.

Having described cleansing treat
ment yesterday, let's talk Of the facial
massage the beauty shops give for
wrinkles or dry or an aging skin.
All treatments begin with cleansing,
and draw the blood up to the surface
of the skin with hot towel applications.
The skin being relaxed and the pores
cleansed and opened by this, the next
step is to rub on a generous amount Of
flesh-building cream. Begin the mas
sage.
Usually the girl who treats you begins
Just above the nose, using two fingers
of each hand and quickly Stroking
across the perpendicular lines that
form, or may form in time, between the
eyebrows. Then she goes on out across
the forehead, making little circular mo-
lions over the forehead wrinkles to the
temples. Then over the eyebrows,
around the outside Of the eyes, under
them, in toward the nose. Then gently
over the eyelids. Then the chin, around
and around, gradually working up across
mouth lines and out over the cheeks
toward the ears. Down the nose just
over each nostril, using a finger of each
hand. Over the mouth lines again, and
then quick little strokes from the jaw
upward over each cheek, this to lift
sagging cheek muscles. Under the chin
and down the neck, and that's all there
is to it.
Cream is always worked well into the
skin at the back of the neck, and
carefully wiped off with warm water
and then with a dry towel, and powder
is put over 1t Ito protect the neck of
the Dress. And ice is usually the fin
ish, after the massage, and after this
thick cream has been wiped of with a
dry towel The skin retains plenty of
the cream, and the ice or whatever
astringent the shop prefers closes the
pores so the cream will not work out
again, especially If powder is used.
