AS YOU WERE. BY ALICE DELTSIA. You ask me how you can look as young and as pretty now that you are thirtyfive, as you did when yon were twenty. Well, cherie amie, it is simple, and it will not be expensive. You will not need to go to a great Beauty Specialist, who will charge you many hundred guineas, but just to use a few simple things every day and perhaps every night. Your complexion is not good, but that is because the skin is the old dead skin you have had all these years. Get rid of it and give the fresh, young skin beneath it a chance to show itself, and make you look " as you were." Get two ounces mercolized wax from any chemist, and smear a little carefully over your, face and throat every night. Do not trouble to rub it in as you would have to do with other creams. Simply smear it on tho skin and the wax will do the rest. Gradualy this wax will peel off all tho old, dead skin, and you will be astonished and charmed with the beauty and freshness of tho new complexion, which is waiting to show itsell. DON'T USE POWDER. Then throw away your powder puff. Powder clogs the pores of the skin, so that it cannot breatho properly, and nothing can live and bo healthy if it cannot breatho freely. You know that, don't you ? Yet you powder your face and prevent tho skin from having a chance to breatho. Mover uso powder. Instead got an ounco of cleminite and mix it witli four ounces of hot water, bottle it, and, with a pad of cotton wool, apply it to your face and neck. It will give tho skin a soft, .velvety bloom which will not rub off. Also it will last all day or all tho evening, oven in a warm ballroom. A TOUCH OF COLOUR. A little colour in the cheeks is very becoming. Get some colliandum at any chemists and uso this instead of rouge. It is quite harmless to the skin and gives a pretty flush to tho cheeks, like the tint of a wild rose. WAVY HAIR. Your hair, too, wants attention if you wish to look as pretty " as you wore." Four ounces of stallax will last you for twenty shampoos, and once a week shampoo your hair with a dessert spoonful of the granules dissolved in a pint of hot water. Don't rinso tho hair, it is not necessary, simply dry it in tho usual way. Stallax, used regularly, will mako your trosses soft and silky and give them a natural wave. Then to stimulate tho growth and incroaso the vitality of your hair, apply a lotion made by mixing an ounce of boranium with four ounces of bay rum. Rub this well into the x-oots every night, and in a few weeks your hair will bo thick and luxuriant, and you will look, if you follow all my advice, as young and as pretty " as you wore " —shall I say at twenty.—Advt. NOT HOW MUCH —BUT MOW GOOD"! When buying Eucalyptus it's not tho size of the bottle, but the quality of the contents that matters. Tho bottle of Eucalyptus in tho dark green banded carton bearing the signature, "Sander and Sons," ia pure Volatile Eucalypti Extract.—-teat you can buj.—Advt,
