Those Queer Scenes

Down at the Rialto theater
good crowds are responding to
the call of the thrill. Invisible
Man" packs a real mystery punch
and many movie-goers come away
pondering on how some OF these
magic scenes are taken.
Claude Rains, who plays the
invisible man." let out part of
the secret in an interview. He
said:
"In those scenes where the
invisible man was totally invisi-
BILE 1 simply had the day off and
the technicians went ahead
without me. Those are the
scenes where 1 have fun with
.bewiIdered pursuerS, knocking
off hats, riding a bicycle down
the street, causing andirOns,
cigarettes and pieces of furni-
ture to wander about under
their own power. i
GAIL that was done with
.wireS," he explained. If you
stood close you could see the
wires; if you stood near the
camera you couldn't. I sat about
for hours watching them do it,
and 1 never had such a lark in
my life.
'Tt was a tremendous lot Of
fun and I found it terribly in
teresting. I was always on the
set an hour or so before they
really wanted me. That's not
the usual thing out there, you
know. The players are so anx-
iOus to get away that they dash
off without bOthering to take

known in law as "the widows quar-.

THE HOME FACIAL

II AVING arranged your beauty
L L articles and, adjusted your
head band. you are ready for the
first step in your home treatment.
Pour a little skin tonic in one of
the small glass bowls. Moisten one
of the small pads in the skin tonic
and add the cleansing cream to the
pad. Start cleansing with sweep
ing upward movements on the neck,
up and around the neck, then on
the face-three upward motions on
either side of the face. Then
around the chin. around the mouth,
down on the nose and across the
forehead.
Always he sure to use an upward
motion.
Applying the cleansing cream
with n moistened pad of cotton is
the best method and really cleanses
the skin thoroughly, not only re-
moves surface dust, but penetrates
the pores.
Having applied the cream all
over neck and face, remove it with
cleansing tissues. They are soft
and silky and do not stretch the
skin-and are economical TO use in
the long run because they save
your towels and laundry bills. Re-
move the cream just as you applied
it-with upward sweeping move
ments.
Now. with the face really clean
we go to the second step, which is:
Saturate the large patter in the
iced skin tonic. Start patting the
neck, using a quick, staccato move
ment-a quick, slapping movement
to whip up the circulation. Now
up on the face, pat at the corners
OF the mouth. then across the
mouth. then under the chin, then
the other side OF the face-keep
patting briskly until your skin
tingles. Hold the patter over the

Pile both above and below the eyes.
Our skin needs exercise just as
our body does. and patting with the
skin tonic is the way to exercise it.
Not just sponging the skin, but
brisk patting for several minutes.
This will stimulate the circulation,
will help to normalize the oil con-

The skin needs constant study.
Notice that 1t is inclined to be
more dry in the winter and moist,

summer. Notice how certain prep
arations affect 1t. Treat 1t to the
diet that seems TO be kind to 1t.

Why Children Need

APPLYING SKIN FOOD

a LWAYS after cleansing skin
n with cleansing cream, spend a
minute or two patting with skin
tonic. l cannot emphasize this too
strongly. A good skin tonic should
tone your skin, help to keep 1t
clear, glowing. the pores refined
The tonic in Itself is an excellent
pickup" treatment If you have
only a few minutes to spare before
an important engagement or after
busy day.
Most women need a skin food
Dry skin especially. And this type
of skin seems to be on the increase.
Unless your skin is excessively
oily, include good, nourishing and
preserving skin food in your home
treatment.
First movement-Apply the cream
with long. sweeping, upward move
ments all over neck and face. Then
using palm and cushioned parts of
the fingers, knead the neck. Re
peat at least six times. Remem-
Der kneading is pressing and lift
ing.
Second movement-To keep the
contour firm and for the important
muscle in front of the ear-use
the cushioned part of the fingers,
start under the chin and lift firmly
under the chin, under the contour
(do not stretch or pull, but press
until you reach in front of the ear.)
Knead about seven distinct move
ments. Do the movements slowly
and practice in front of the mirror.
Third movement-FOr the impor-
tant muscles around the mouth and
the line from mouth to nose-to
prevent dropping and sagging: use
three fingers of each hand. Start
on chin and lift, lift, lift, using
about six movements up from the
chin-around the mouth to the side
of the nose.
Fourth mOvement-Use palms of
hands, grasp chin firmly and hold
it. tense slightly, use five move
ments. lifting each time, lift under
the chin, lift under the contour
until you reach below the ear. Do
this movement every night and
morning. It will rebuild and firm

in front of ears. Starting in the
center of the forehead, bend the in
