regularity. She asks her doctor
about gentle exercises to insure
straight. strong limbs and back.
She teaches the child poiSe and
self confidence that is a lifelong
beauty asset.
AS the child grows older. she
gsxrtreS him the Importance or
cleanliness and drills him in caring
for hands, hair. teeth and skin, but
always with supervision and aSsiS-
lance when needed. She watches
for defects like crooked teeth or ia
cial deformities and has them cor
rected before the child has chance
to become unhappy and self-con-
scious about them.
Beauty From the Start
But she thrills at her children's
good features from the beginning.
She does everything possible TO en-
nance the good points TO offset
the less attractive features. II the
Childs figure is thin or complexion
pale, she not only takes steps to i'm
prove the general health, but turns
to nice features and plays them up.
Baby hair, for instance, can be
coaXed to beauty If it is brushed,
shampooed and trained to curl.
Proper shaping will help make 1t
pretty and easy to care for. Eyes
kept bright and clear with lots of
sleep, proper diet and care can be
turned into a beauty feature that
will dominate the entire face. Pref
ty clothes, selected because Of their
becomingneSS TO the chlld'S figure
or their fiattering color, help TO
minimize any faults, besides teach
ing the child good taste when, later
on, she is permitted TO select her
own clothes.
A little boy can be taught to keep
hands immaculate cat least at
mealtime) and to brush his hair. AS
he grows older, manageable hair
may become the pride of his life.
See that he gets the right tonic and
pomade and a good hairbruSh to
keep his scalp clean and healthy.
Pay attention TO the scalp in the
teens, for soil and germs that &C
Cumulate there may contribute TO
acne. II your son has even few
pimples, do something at once.
There is a marvellous preparation
that he will not mind using as there
is nothing messy or sissy" about 1t.
It is a Clean-Smelling petroleum
product that is spread over the en-
tire face like a mask, then the fin
gers are wet in cold water and
worked over and over the face. The
c eansi ing preparation is then
rinSed off thoroughly with tepid
and then very cold water. There is
nothing to be left on the face. The
cleanser should be used every other
day at first and then every day.
Set a Good Example
OF course, wise mother should
set the example for her children's
grooming by keeping herself neat
and attractive all day long. She
should begin early TO watch her
bathroom scales and to study the
creams, tonics and makeup that
give her skin youthful glow and
keep it firm and fine in texture. She

preparations economically. S h
should watch her vitamins as we'll

both will help her stay young and
slim as her husband wishes.
Hubby. too. should get his share
of the beauty propaganda, although
he may require subtle handling. A
timely tip Of a bottle Of hand or
body lotion may prompt him TO use
it for a sensitive, dry skin. Perhaps
jar of your own cream left in
sight will tempt him to sample the
contents. Hair preparations chos-
en- with his needs in mind, special
preparation If there is dandruff;
tonic for dry or oily hair if either
of these describe 1t. Get him really
good hairbrush and dressing TO
keep his hair in place without leav-
ing it stiff or sticky.
