DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
I am a girl seventeen years

young man seven years my senior.

wise me to drop him. II that is the
only reason they have? He ome

Would II be proper TO 20 to his

Is there any way ] could make
my parents see that he Is not too

articles about hair dyeing, but each one will, Of
necessity, take up only one feature Of this highly
specialized branch of beauty culture.
In a recent issue of a trade magazine l was
pleased to note the completely honest opinions
and suggestions that were contained in its pages.
We all know many reliable hairdressers who have
been scrupulously honest and scientific in their
hair-dyeing work, but the thing which surprised
and pleased me so much was finding out that the
standards Of the average hairdressers are being
raised by those reputable men and women who
head the various organizations that cater to the
individual beauty shops.
Subsequent investigation brought to my
attention that one of the most important features

Cleanliness Of the skin Is absolutely essential
to good health The face, and every part of the
body, should be washed with a soothing, mild
soap and plenty Of warm water every day. The
face should be washed much more than once a
day, particularly if you live in the city. The
dirt and bacteria of the air are constantly falling
on TIE face and lodging there. The natural oil
of the skin catches and holds them.
The skin is a protection to the machinery Of
the body, the machinery that does the hourly and
daily work of life. A clean skin is essential to
the physical welfare. 1t must be kept il good
condition if we are to have good health.
The skin Is the point of discharge Of many
of the wastes and poisons of the body. They are
