Printed crepes and cottonS

the larger prints being used
only for evening wear, and
even then only rarely. The
most popular prints are the
fresh fieldflower types and con-
fetti designs, in the gay Mexi-
can reds, chartreuse green's,
Colds and blues.
Spring brides, contrary to
the black and gold weddings
held hereabouts lately, will be

ing suits-but we are likely to
disregard them in the winter,
and that is not right.
Filmy Hose
They demand a good deal
Of attention during the cold
months. Because of the filmy
stockings most Of us wear, the
egS, when neglected become
mapped and ugly. And if they
I, are constantly red and chapped
during these months, they are
not going to look attractive
when displayed on the beaches
the following season. 1t is not
easy to make such legs lock
smooth and pretty again.
When your legs become rough
and irritated from the cold and
wind, make a practice of using
rich cream or warmed olive oil
to soften the skin. Rub the
grease in we'll and then wipe off
any excess that may remain.
OF course, you cannot treat
the legs with oil just before get
ting dressed in your very best
attire to go out. The slightest
bit of grease will soil your
stockings. The proper time to
Apply it is at night, just before
fyou go to bed.
| Another condition which may
occur during the winter months
If you neglect your legs is un-
slightly gooseflesi1. This Is due
to the accumulation of the
horny cells of the epidermis.
When you take your nightly
bath, scrub your legs we'll with
a mild soap, using small flesh
brush.
\ GOOSefleSh
Or if you are in the habit of
bathing in the morning, do the
same thing, only finish off your
warm water scrubblng with a
eaod dash of cold water to close
the pores.
If you take the evening bath,
rub bit of cold cream or olive
oil into the skin. This will not
only help to prevent gooseflesh,
but will eradicate what has al
ready appeared.
If you use a depilatory on your
legs, be sure to be guided by the
following instructions: Do not
leave the preparations on longer
than instructed, and remove it
properly. Then apply sooth-
ing lotion or cream-or good
old olive oil.

ASTRINGENT

QuestiOn-PleaSe tell me what
effect an aStringent has on the
skin. When should it be used?
r. G..
Answer-Astringents have a
toning effect on the skin and
gently close the pores. They
should be used only when the
skin has been cleansed. Only a.
mild skin tonic or astringent
should be used if the skin is dry
or inclined to be sensitive, but a
stronger one may be used safely
on an oily skin.
