tons will be varied because skins
do not always respond in the way
we anticipate.
It is equally impossible for me
to say that any one method will
accomplish in every single case the
exact thing that the majority Of
my experiments show. There
fore, the other side of the prob
lem must be considered, but this
cannot be done until it has been
brought to my attention.
The particular thing | have in
mind today il this. "A letter from
a reader in her early thirties states
that she has been using a boric
acid and witch-hazel skin tonic for
cleansing, having given up all use
Of creams or soap and water for
that purpose
Things went along beautifully
for more than a month and then
her skin showed slight traces of
dryness. She continued the boric
acid and witch-hazel cleansing for
another two weeks before she
wrote to tell me what had hap
pened and to seek further advice.
The dryness may come from
one OF several sources. As
we grow older the natural oil
supply diminishes a little. II *
possible that due 70 this natural
source she requires additional Oil
in the form Of local or outer ap-
plications such as is obtained BY
the use of creams. Then, too, il
may be that some question Of diet,
insufficient water, less exercise
during the Winter months than
she is in the habit of getting in
the warmer seasons is at fault.
That IS impossible for me to deter
mine through correspondence.
Also, the condition may very
easily be due 10 the cold weather,
during which season that particu-
lar m may need TO protect
the surface Of her skin with a thin
film OF oil.
Under such circumstances I
suggest that the writer Of that

for the initial removal Of impuri-
ties from her skin. After remov-
ing the cream the skin tonic
should be used TO free the tiny
crevices and pores of the skin
from the little remaining cream.
Another suggestion is that a
little glycerin be added TO the
boric acid and witch-hazel tonic.
II one-half pint Of boric acid solu-
ton and one-half pint Of witch
hazel IS used, add one ounce Of
the very finest glycerin that can
be obtained. The addition or the
glycerin not only insures a soft
ening agent for the skin, but will
leave q thin film Of protective
matter over il.
AT night after cleansing the
skin with the boric acid and witch
hazel skin tonic, q small amount OF
nourishing cream may be patted
into the skin even though il ap-
parently does not require this aid.
After letting the cream remain on
for ten to fifteen minutes, remove
the little that remain on the sur
face. This method may eliminate
the tendency 70 dryness without
adding the glycerin to the formula

Helpful Hints

A teaspoonful OF vinegar added to
lard used for frying prevents the
food from absorbing too much fat.
After removing marks from a
fabric with ammonia you may find
that the color has suffered. Apply a
weak solution Of vinegar and water
this often serves 10 bring back the
original color.
All old furniture should be over
hauled frequently for WOODWORK.
Should there be any crevices or
small holes which show signs OF this
pest. saturate the wood with paraffin.
Powdered starch rubbed over walls
with a soft cloth will remove all
stains.
Damp shoes will polish well II a
little paraffin is added 10 the cleans
ing paste.

does not matter.
The point to the story is that they were ali
walking. Perhaps few Of them stopped to con-
slider that this was good for them. But that is
the fact. Even if they had to wait at the cross
ing, the fresh air, too, was helpful.
Walking is the first and best exercise a per-
son can possibly take. Perhaps ii does depend
somewhat on temperament. Some persons prefer
TO have play and exercise at the same time, as in
golf, or tennis, or other form Of exercise. But
for the person who really wants exercise TO keep
him fit, walking fills every need, and it doesn't
cost a cent?
Walking can be made a very pleasant ~pastime,
added to its health benefits. A good companion,
or an unfamiliar route once in a while, adds
much to the pleasure of it.
