diet that is low in Vitamins and lack
of sun - all these contribute to
making you feel out of sorts.
Nevertheless. this is good time
to ne yeHf faults and take steps
TO correct them. Let's see what de-
tails give you that elderly look.
Grey hair? 1t alone will not make
you seem old, When healthy. well
cared for and beautifully coiifed. it
can be stunning.
A sallow, lined skin? That is
something you should be ashamed
Of. something you can and must do
something about. Has your figure
become stout. lumpy and stiff? In
my opinion, this is one Of the most
aging Of all. Keep your body ffexi-
BILE and as slender as your build
and glands will allow and you Will
seem youthful no matter what the
facts may be.

look and brighter skin and eyes.
Then you can take other features
one by one. When your skin is well
fed by richer supply OF blood, you
can use rich lubricating creams
and gentle massage to soften those
little lines about your eyes and
mouth. Turn to those grey hairs
