BEAUTIFUL, Ell?

Health is the essence of beauty All cosmetic artifice attempts tt counterfeit the appearance of per. feet health. The intelligent wo' mans makeup does not adver lse the picture as a take to the casual beholder. The moron, the feeble minded. the delinquent-well, she will always be child.
 "I am the average woman," says a reader. q am not pretending to be intelligent, but at fifty-five have learned love beauty Tn all things, and if can create the illusion of beauty for my friends, especially for my children, I will do so even to the sacrifice of many other things say even to the spending of money for cosmetics that should be spent for taxes. .''
 By all means. Every woman who has friends, children, parents, brothers, sisters, employees or em- ployers should feel it her duty to "create the illusion of beauty" and no woman can afford to be uncon- cerned about her beauty. The overpainted underwashed moron is no more amusing caricature than is the unmitigated trump whose conceit is so obvious.
 q use lip rouge like any other girl" complains another reader, but when I eat anything little of it gets on the food. Is there any harm in that? I have heard that some rouge has lead in it. also some powder"

 Now I'd better get in a few quick punches before the bell.' For younger skins, that is, skins the t still have enough or even too much sebum, natural skin oil, at least one daily scrubbing with plain soap and hot water, followed by repeated rinsings with tepid, then cool and finally cold water, is the ideal care of the complexion. For older skins, where the secretion of sebum or natural oil is deficient and there is tendency toward dryness, harshness, irritability and sallwoness, the less soap and the less water the better; instead, plain bland oil should be used for cleans ing the skin. For this purpose there are several suitable prepar- ations. Perhaps the most conven- tent ad satisfactory is the standard "cold cream" made by any good pharmacist after the formula for Ung. Aquae Rosae Continent of Rose Water) in the Pharmacopoeia Olive oil, in which is dissolved an ounce of boric acid to the pint (while the oil is hot) is good; also sweet almond oil similarly borated. Sesame oil, if fresh, makes an ideal skin oil, and does not clog the skin as some oils do; it may be similarly borated to preserve it from rancidity, and the boric acid is harmless to the skin. Persons with excessively dry skin should anoint the skin with few drops of oil daily, especially after wash ing.
 Plain toilet soap, umedicated, unscented, is the best for the skin. Don't be goofty about soap.

 - Cleaning Hair Brush. How can I clean hair brush
 What solution or preparation shall I use (L.A.C.)
 Answer-I believe a thorough washing of the brush with hot wa ter and ordinary soap, then drying
 in direct sunlight, is the best way
 to clean or disinfect a hair brush.
 Soaking bristles for period of 24 to 48 hours in solution of one part of standard Liquor Formalde- hyde with four parts water, is a good way to destroy possible an- thrax bacilli or other disease germs on new brushes. Repeated rinsing
 is necessary to get all the form aldehyde out of the brush before you use it. Some brushes with
 metal backs stand boiling for a minute or two, and that is the best
 way to sterilize anything. Smoothing Mothers. Every morning my baby months old has small red blotches on her fingers and arms.

Tn summertime, I get wrinkles between my eyes and lines across my forehead" writes a woman in New England. 'So far, they've disappeared every winter, but, be. fore long, I'm afraid they won't What can I do to prevent them? ?''
 We'll. first of all, you can wear colored glasses whenever you are riding in a car or sitting on the beach. These, of course, protect your eyes from the suns glare and keep you from squinting. Choose a pair that really fit the shape of your eyes. If you expect to wear them while reading, you ought to consult an eye specialist before you make a selection.
 In addition, better wear wide- brimmed hats as much as possi- ble. They're smart this year any, way, and they certainly do pre- vent lines across your forehead.
 If you already have a few stub born furrows, learn to smooth them out each night before you go to bed. When you have cleaned your face, apply tissue cream. especially across your brow, a. round eyes on the expression lines upward from corners of the mouth. Using f1ngertips on both hands, flatten the lines until they begin to disappear. Keep on with the gentle massage until you notice a definite Improvement. Repeat each night.
 Every woman over 30 should leave bit of rich cream around her eyes while she sleeps. As matter of fact, allowing a little to remain on the space between eyebrows will keep the skin soft and tend to prevent lines.

SOUTHWESTERN
DROUGHT DAMAGE
REACHES MILLIONR

Southwestern drought damage, en-
braced in abandoned homes, half star
we'd herds and dust smothered crops,
ran high in the millions today as
weather-beaten farmers prayed for a
general rain to check ravages of sun
and wind.
"Many millions of dollars" was the
nearest authorities would come to es-
timating the losses.
However, Hubert L. Collins, Den
yer statistician for the United States
Department of Agriculture, said thou
sands of acres Of southeastern Colo
RADIO land would be useless in farm
ing and grazing for 100 years or more
and other crop experts pointed to the
dust toll in the blowing wheat fields.
Collins, predicted, on the basis of
the present outlook, "the most COM
plete crop failure in the history of
the western plains region" He said
he referred to eastern Colorado and
Wyoming; western Kansas and Ne
braska and the Texas and Oklahoma
Panhandle sections.

AS the black blizzard" continued,
farmers, beaten by the prolonged
storms after four years of drought
began an exodus from the Colorado
counties of Baca, Bent and Prowers
and others planned to move their cat
tie.
Oklahoma crop authorities said
wheat would approximate so per cent
of normal with the figure subject to
wide variation in the event of more
rain or more dust. Crop damage in
Texas was said to be negligible COM
pared to the loss Of valuable soil.
F. K. Reed, Federal statistician, said
two weeks of dust storms had greatly
dimmed wheat prospects in western
Kansas. He estimated the crop, which
last year ran about IL million bushels,
was Is per cent of normal.
While Colorado physicians express
ed the belief that "dust pneumonia"
caused by irritation Of the lungs, no
longer is an immediate danger, they
have added that unless the atmos-
phere clears, public health will be i'm
periled.
Dust storms howled again yesterday
over southwestern Kansas and north
western Oklahoma, as well as eastern
Colorado. Rain fell Saturday night in
the Oklahoma Panhandle, but it failed
to keep the soil from blowing.
