If she is under thirty, fresh-faced
as a daisy, and slender as a reed,
remarks like this may 60 over. They
may even be amusing. But, after
thirty, few and far between are wo-
men who should talk this way, or,

to retain their youthful good looks
without any effort on their part.
Every actress does her best to keep
her figure trim and supple, skin
smooth and unlined, hair bright and
young looking.
The latest story Of O beautiful
actress who doesn't expect to stay
beautiful without effort is about
Greta Carlo. On her recent visit to
New York she put herself in the
hands Of q famous skin specialist,
had special treatments for adjusting
the muscles Of her face, bought
creams to be used at home and had
q permanent wave.

Miss Carlo. lovely though she is,
undoubtedly realizes that unless 1t
is creamed regularly, dry, sensitive
skin has q tendency to lose its
freshness, become crepe-textured
and lined. Heretofore, she had fig

year in and year out to remove her
theatrical makeup has been suffi-
cient to keep her sensitive, rather
dry complexion soft.
Now, obviously, she has decided
that cream for use at home Is a
necessity. She will spend the
time necessary to counteract the Ell
