BEAUTY NOTES.
Eyebrows are still being trimmed, but not to such a severe extent as last year. When the mouth is large, lip salve should only be applied in the middle to reduce the apparent"*size. Lines and hollows under the eyes need a special nutritive oil lightly patted in with tho little finger tip and left on all night. ■' " " v For fine dark down on the upper lip a simple, harmless bleach is peroxide of hydrogen applied after washing and drying—not after creaming—the face. Nails inclined to break or split should be rubbed with a nutritive cream at bedtime. A aplit thumbnail should be given tho protection of a kid'glove " stall." A famous actress owned up to an original way of darkening under her eyes. She dips her little finger's tip irito dust and then uses it to give the desired shadow below her lower lashes, It is a mistake to neglect 'cleansing the eyes either at bedtime or on rising, Any chemist will make up a simple harmless eye lotion, which is best dropped in with a new pen-filler. An eye-bath is apt to cause lines under the eyes by the pressure necessary to prevent the lotion caping.
