Clever Beauty Secrets REVEALED BY A LONDON CHEMIST _ This series of ar‘■X ' ticles by E. W. K' 1 ' ' In Smith, M.P.S, a i'F' 1 * , qualified registered r V- London chemisi and / pharmacist, is parW ticularly interesting Ixxiause of its authoritativeness. Considering the bowildering mass of toilet requisites now offerNs&Wi ed to the public, Afr. Smith’s simple nn< i homely suggestions should come as a great relief to the puzzled beauty seeker. The dispensing chemist, above all others, is in a position to judge results from long experience with thousands of cases. Mr. Smith has made a , special study of the chemistry of beauty culture for many years, and the time is ripe for some such expert’s clear siatement, backed by the authority of experience and knowledge. Renewing Complexions. It is foolish to attempt to cover up or hide a sallow complexion, when you can so ■sasily remove the sallowness itself. Rouge and the like on a brownish , skin only emphasise the defect. The | better way, is to apply pure mercolized wax—the same as you would cold cream I —putting it on at night, removing it in the morning with warm water and soap, following with a dash of cold water. The effect of a few applications is simply marvellous. The half-dead cuticle is absorbed by the wax—painlessly, gradually, in tiny imperceptible particles —revealing the beautiful velvety white new ekin beneath. No woman need have a sallow, blotchy, pimply or freckled complexion if she will just get some good mercolized wax and use as suggested. Feminine Moustaches. The women who are annoyed by disfiguring downy hair growths a method of permanently eradicating the same will come as a piece of good news. For this purpose pure powdered phemxnol may be used. Almost any chemist should bo able to supply an ounce of this drug. The recommended treatment is designed not only' to remove the disfiguring growth instantly, leaving no trace, but also to actually kill the hair roots without irritating the «km. The Kiss Curl. I cannot too strongly condemn the use of the hot curling-iron. It means death to the hair eventually. Moreover, it is entirely “unnecessary. The hair can be made beautifully wavy and curly to any extent and in any form desired, merely by using such a simple ingredient as pure silmerine. This perfectly harmless liquid should be applied to the hair with a clean tooih brush at night. In the morning you will find that a very beautiful natural wave and curliness has resulted, and the effect will last many days. The liquid silmerine is very beneficial and is not sticky or greasy. A couple of ounces should last a very long time. The Magnetism of Beautiful Hair. Beautiful hair adds immensely to the personal magnetism of both men and women. Actresses and smart women qte ever on the look-out for any harmless thing that will increase the natural beauty of their hair. The latest method is to use pure stallax as a shampoo on account of the peculiarly glossy, fluffy and wavy effect which it leaves. As siallax has never been used much for this purpose it comes to the chemist only in Jib. sealed original, packages, enough for twenty-five or thirtv shampoos. A tea-spoonful of the fragrant stallax granules, dissolved in a. cup of hot water, is more than sufficient for each shampoo. It is very beneficial and stimulaiing to the hair, apart from it beautifying effect. What Women Hata. Every woman hates a shiny nose and a dull or greasy complexion. Few know that there is an instantaneous remedy at hand in the home, one that is absolutely harmless, and that defies deiection even under the closest scrutiny. If you have not eleminite in the house, get about an ounce, and add just suf- | ficient water to dissolve ii. A little of this lotion applied to the face WIIIS instantly cause the greasiness to disappear, and the skin, will have a perfectly natural, velvety youthful bloom that any woman ' might envy. The effect will last for many hours, and no powder is required, even under the most trying conditions, indoors or out. To prepare the face, neck and arms for a long evening in a hot ballroom, nothing can compare with this simple home-made lotion. GET RID OF IT. Superflous 'hair need no longer be a worry and inconvenience. “Rusina (Regd.) absolutely destroys it. Wrinkles and other facial blemishes banished by the "Coman" method. The latest process in permanent hair waving. Call or send stamped addressed envelope for free literature. „ ~ _ FLORENCE HULLEN, C.M.D.. 3a Courtenav Place 'Phoae 22 —070. Wellington.
