Flabby Muscles.

There are several things you can do
70 fiabby muscles to tone them up. You
can strap them up occasionally by
means of bandageS or q face mask OF
some kind. You can massage them,
which strengthens them, you can use
astringent face packs. And you can
always use ice.
the head and under the chin can be
so arranged that the flabby muscles
under the chin are strapped up and the
sagging muscles around the mouth and
cheeks pushed back in place. I'd sug-
gest that you buy ordinary rolls OF
gauze bandage, wind one Of these from
the top of the head under the chin, over
the head and under the chin again
several times. holding it all in place
with a safety pin, or else tying the
ends. Slip a finger under the straps
mouth to hold up the muscles and
prevent wrinkling at the corners. You
could wear this an hour or so during
the day while you read or work, or you
could wear 1t all night.
Massage Is such a long subject that
I'll go into it again, but if you rub your
skin with nourishing cream and after
It is wiped on rub over the face with
a piece Of ice you may not need mas
the muscles. Rub slowly over the face
so there is time for the reaction on
each part Of the skin before the ice
passes over 1t again. Incidentally, do
not be afraid Of using ice; there Is
nothing like it for hardening a sensitive
skin. for tightening large pores, for
stimulating circulation, for drying up
skin blemishes, for improving the color
Of sallow skin. Keep rubbing with
ice until the skin tingles, then pat
dry gently and use powder. II cold

best for use on table linen as the bot

Leave a square of linen at each cor

Cut the textile away beneath the lace

Facial Packs.

xACl0l kdCASs
Many women suffer q great deal IN
early springtime from sensitive, dry,
scaIy and rough skin which is aggra-
waited to a certain extent by the dry
atmosphere OF the home as wen as
the cold winds out OF doors. Even with
the special care and attention which
has been given during the Winter
months the skin appears duh, rough
and cloudy as the mild weather APP
proaches and the warm Spring sunshine
reveals its defects.
Rejuvenating facial packs are not
new by any means, but they have grown
in popularity in the past few years in
modern version made by manufacturers
Of creams and cosmetics. These facial
treatments, which were used by the
early Greek and Egyptian ladies OF
wealth but which were unobtainable by
the rank and file of women, are enjoy
ing a revival, and they are now within
reach of every woman.
When the complexion seems to be
cloudy and rough and lacks velvety
texture, the facial pack Is useful for
toning up the skin. The tightening and
drawing of the skin that you feel brings
the blood up to the surface by shut
ting of the air for few minutes. The
local action removes the dead and dy-
ing scales or cells from the outer skin,
thus exposing the fresh. healthier layer
beneath and revitaliZing the tissues of
the skin. It gives color to the skin and
active stimulation of the blood circula-
ton. The gentle massage tones UP the
facial muscles and the astringent prop
critics temporarily remove tiny wrinkles
and bleach the skin slightly. Rejuve-
mating facial packs are restful and re-
freshing and remove that tired express
sion so detrimental to beauty. They
cleanse and Soothe the skin.
Before beginning the facial treatment,
bind towel about your head to protect
your hair. Next apply a cleansing cream
or oil to remove the surface dust and
makeup. Apply the cleansing cream
generously with the tips Of the fingers
and massage with gentle upward move
mentS. Then remove the excess cream
with tissue square, absorbent cotton
or a clean piece of old cheesecloth. APP
ply cleansing lotion to remove all fatty
substances from the surface Of the
skin and then wiring out a Turkish
towel in hot water and hold 1t over the
face and neck. Repeat the hot applica-
ton twice. Blot the skin dry and apply
your tissue cream. skin food or special
massage cream; massage the face and
neck for several minutes, using the
light, upward pattering and stroking
movements. Massage the chin, cheek,
neck, forehead and around the eyes.

Choosing a Hat.

BY way Of preparing for the business
Of choosing a hat, be sure that your
hair is becomingly arranged. Some
women feel that they should make no
effort to look their best when buying a
hat, since they want a hat that will
look becoming at all times. But the
trouble Is that If you attempt to buy q
hat when your hair Is untidy and your
face shows fatigue no hat will look be-
coming, and you Will feel so discour-
aged that you will buy no hat at all,
or In desperation choose q hat at ran
dom just to have the unpleasant BUSH
ness over with.
Before starting out on this impor-
tant business you should have def
mite idea of the color scheme of your
Spring wardrobe. Usually the FIRST hat
you will want at this time Is one that
may be worn with Winter clothes on
cooler days or with the lighter-weight
ensemble that you will choose or have
chosen for early Spring. Many women,
therefore, select . black hat for this
first hat Of the seaSon-realizing that

prove becoming. BY this time you
