COSMETICS
During a recent discussion in th# House of Commons on a resolution for' the Preservation of Old Buildings, one member observed that “ public opinion seems not to want beauty. On the contrary, it seems to want passionately things which are totally incompatible with beauty. - All through the ages the female face and form have been considered the supreme expression of beauty on this earth. The sale of cosmetics, of lip stick, of soaps) of creams* and of face lotions has reached an unprecedented volume. In restaurants, in: trains, in omnibuses, in, every publia place women may be seen hard at work on the preservation of places of charm,' and, may I say, the greater th© ruin tha more active are the steps taken for it# preservation.” .
