CUTTINGS FROM BEAUTY. ARTICLES. THE CKEAM OF MODERN BEAUTY ADVICE. REMOVING BAD COMPLEXIONS. Cosmetics can never really help a poor complexion; often they are positively harmful. The sensible, rational way is to actually remove the thin veil of stifling, half-dead scarf skin from the face, and give the fresh, vigorous, and beautiful young skin underneath a chance to show itself and to breathe. This is best done in a very simple way, by merely applying mercolised wax at night, like cold cream, and washing it off in the morning. It absorbs the disfiguring cuticle gradually aC d harmlessly, leaving a brilliant natural complexion. Of course, this also takes with it all such facial blemishes as red blotches,- tan, moth patches, Ballowness, liver spots, etc. The new skin, is usually several degrees lighter, and finer in texture. TO KILL HAIR SOOTS. Women annoyed with disfiguring growths of superfluous hair wish to know not merely how to temporarily remove the hair, but how. to kill, the roots permanentlv. For this purpose pure-powdered pheminol may be applied directly to the objectionable hair growth. The recommended treatment is designed not only to instantly remove the hair but also to actually kill the roots so that the growth will not return. About an ounce of pheminol should be sufficient. HOW TO HAVE THICK AND PEETTY HAIR. Soaps and artificial shampoos ruin many beautiful heads of - fiair. Few people know that a teaspoonful of good Btalfax dissolved in a cup of hot water has a natural affinity for the hair and makes the most delightful shampoo imaginable. It leaves the hSTr brilliant, soft and wavy, cleanses the scalp completely and greatly stimulates the hair growth- The only drawback is that stallax 6eems rather expensive. It comes to the chemist only in sealed J-lB packages. Kowever, this is sufficient for twenty-five or thirty shampoos, and it really works out very cheaply in the end.
