DRY CLEANING DON'TS

The wartime shortage of dry clean
ing and laundering services has
caused many a housewife to try to do
her own dry cleaning at home. Due to
the fact that many persons have been
fatally burned or disfgured while en-
gagged in cleaning garments at home,
the first and best advice is: Don't do
it." Garments may still be cleaned
cheaply and far more efficiently and
safely by dry cleaning establishments,
Those who still insist on attempting
this work at home should keep six
rules in mind:
l. Use only non-flammable fluid CA

Washington, July
Apparently Mr.. Wendell Willkie
broods more bitterly as the weeks
go by Time seems not to heal his
wounded spirit nor assuage his per-
sonal disappointments. Nor does it
lessen the acute pain of the exceed
ingly unfortunate position into which
he has worked himself. The question
of how he is to get out with any cred
it to himself seems one to which he
is as far from an answer as ever.

Keep EN- Glowing
By BETTL CLARKE

If your tan is taking on a dull
negative hue, color-light your face
Nth a glowing makeup. Whether
you are a vibrant brunette or a
year round suntanned blonde, a
tan makeup base and rose-rachel
English complexion powder will
give a radiant and soft, rosy look
10 your face.
Older women, too, should rely
on warmer, roster shade of pow
der. It will give a more youthful
look than paler shades and will
contrast becomingly with either
grey or white hair.
Spread the base very sparingly
with lotion or with water moisten-
ea fingers. Fluff the powder on
generously and Whisk some lotion
over your powdered face. Pat dry
with a tissue, and fluff on more
powder. Brush excess off with cot.
ton.
Be sure TO do the same thing
tc your neck and shoulders, par
ticularly if you are wearing an
abbreviated bathing or play suit.
Your makeup base will help pre-
vent rouge from clogging the pores
and it will be easier to blend if
put on over the base. Always apply
