How to Treat Your Hair and Complexion* A Few Simple Beauty Hints, By GABY DESLYS, The well-known Parisian Actress. Tou ask me for a few hints on the treatment of tho hair and complexion. Well, the less "treatment" .you Rive the skin the better. I do not believe much in massage, but a little cream to the face is necessary to counteract the effects of wind or sun. What cream would 1 recommend? Well, I advise you to use a. little mercolised wax every night and again in the morning after waeliing the- face. Bub it gently into the skin, then wipe off any super- fluous wax and dust / a little barri-agar over the face. }ou /*> ' /!;; \\ 'will find that this , u will be tho only >A " treatment I^(1 necessary, and will r --.I keep your face fre-hfe% } and youth-ful-looking re f°r all your life Iff le mcr " coli se d wtSgfslwax removes all V tho dead outer skin, so that you have al- ways a fair, fresh com plosion like a. girl's. For the hair, the first and most important thing is a good shampoo. Never use anything inferior to wash the hair with. Get somo goad stallax from your chemist and use a tcaspoonful in a cup of hot water. Then rinse the hair well and it will look bright and. glossy. A. tonic is necessary when the hair is inclined to fall out more than it should, and is always good to use during: the spring and autumn. Then the hair needs a little, what do you call it? stimulant, and for this I would, advise you to get a packet of boranium and mix it with some bay rum, dab this into the roots, and it will not only stop tho fall, but make yonr hair grow long and thick. Give your hair a good brushing every night, and that will be all that you need do. SEASON SALE. IMTRS. SMITH, FURRIER, 88 WILLIS iTJL STREET. CHILDREN'S CLOTHES, MILLINERY, Etc., MUST BE SOLD.
