into blackheads or pimples. Thus the
FIRST step in the treatment is cleansing.
Cover the entire face with cleansing
cream, using the regular massage move
ments. Next, steam the face and leave
the cleansing cream on during the
process, The face may be steamed by
holding 1t over bowl of very hot water
using a towel over the head to form
part Of a tent so that the steam will not
escape. Be careful not to burn the skin
during this process. For those who pre-
fer. the face may be steamed by apply
ing towels wrung out in hot water
directly to the skin, using five or six
towels in all.
After the steaming remove every bit
Of the cleansing cream. Remove it very
gently with soft tissues or with abb
sorbent cotton. The cream and the
steaming together will have cleansed

deep into the pores, and the embedded
CRIME and smaller blackheads will come
out now, without further effort. While
the larger blackheads will not come out
with mere removal Of the cream, they
are softened by this time and most of
them can be removed with a comedone
extractor. Be careful. however, not to
bruise the skin, and If some still prove
too stubborn it Is best to let them re-
main temporarily, as they will eventu-
ally succumb to future treatments.
The next step Is to apply tissue
cream and then gently massage the face
for about IS minutes. This not only
helps remove or ward off wrinkles, but
it also stimulates the skin so that the
pores are more active, and thus more
able to throw off impurities rather than
become clogged. At the end of the
massage period the face should again be
steamed for about three minutes, after
which all traces of cream should be re-
moved and finally an astringent or skin
tonic applied to the face. Conclude
the treatment by rubbing a piece of ice,
wrapped in a soft cloth, over the entire
face, continuing the rubbing for several
minutes. This final step closes the pores
thoroughly.
If any one troubled with a coarse
skin will give her face this treatment
once week, she will be more than re-
paid for the time and effort 1t takes,
for an Immediately clean skin Is never
marred by blackheads.

"All know about him." said one, sis
that he minds his own business and is

meet up with him I say 'Howdy' and

one who had admitted having met
Spots before. 1.-THE first time I met

take. I was young and inexperienced
and enthusiastic. I met Spots early
one evening. No one had told me
about him and I started IN to treat
him the way I would a Gopher or

One of the other Dogs grinned. "You
only started. believe you never did

The other nodded. You've said IT,

got. It was some time before I knew
what really happened. Something hit
me in the eyes and blinded me, and
at the same time the air was filled with
the most awful odor. and for a few
minutes I thought I would choke to

"Just So" spoke up Flip. "And after
that you had to go off by yourself. No
one would let you come anywhere near
them, not even your best friends"
The other nodded. "Since then"

about that fellow. He can go where
he pleases and do what he pleases when
he pleases, so far as I am concerned.
"He seldom comes out in daytime"

most of the time then. He comes out
at dusk and roams about where he
pleases and we just keep away from
him. That is all we know about MIN,
or want to know. 1t is enough"
But it wasn't enough for Spots. Per-
haps 1t would have been but for his
acquaintance with Jimmy Skunk back
home at Farmer Browns. Jimmy was
such a fat, slow-moving fellow, never
