WHY GROW oLD2
Brush
Away
Blues
BY JOSEPHINE BOWMAN

Register and Tribune Syndicate
Brushes, yes just plain
brushes. can play an impor-
tant part in your grooming
and your beauty.
More than one brush is es-
sential. Perhaps you already
have the ones which ] con-
slider necessary. OF course
the first we think of is the
tooth brush. Practically
everyone has at least one Of
these although many do not
use them as often as they
should, or as they should be
used.
Next is the hairbrush. Even
before you push or comb your
hair into place, a hairbrush
is essential to remove dust
and dirt from the hair itself.
Then you all know about
those 100 magic strokes q
night which will add health
and beauty to your tresses.
NylOn or Natural
The hairbrush can have
nylon bristles or natural
bristles. If you are one Of
those smart women who do
brush your hair regularly in
order to stimulate circulation
in the scalp. be sure to do it
correctly. Turn the bristles
toward the scalp and then
toward the ceiling as the
brush sweeps to the ends Of
the hair.
OF course there is the nail
brush. No one can be we'll
groomed without one of
these.
A complexion brush is of
real Importance to many
women. If the skin is oily
and there is a tendency to-
ward blackheads or large
pores. the gentle massage
which a complexion brush
and soapy suds provide is of
the greatest value.
How can you reach the mid
die of your back without a
long-handled bath brush?
This is the spot in which
pimples often appear because
it has been neglected in the
daily bath. Anyway, it feels
awfully good, scrubbing back
there.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-07-26
Clothes Brush

Then there is the clothes
brush which is indispensable
and the little brush for suede
shoes.
Brushes, Of course, should
have good care. 1t is a fine
idea to wash hair brushes as
often as we shampoo our
hair. Nylon bristle brushes
should be washed in soap
and water. Natural bristles
should also have a sudsing
but two teaspoons of am
monia should be added to the
water.
All brushes should be rinsed
we'll. Preferably they should
hang while drying, or they
should De placed bristle side
down on, q clean towel.
Brushes never should be left
resting on their bristles when
not in use.
