HOW TO PREVENT WRINKLES.
A woman can keep her face freo from lines and wrinkles until almost any age if she remembers to keep the skin in a good condition by a few commonsense rules, writes a trained nurse and masseuse. After the age of twenty-five the natural oils gradually decrease, and the lack of them causes the skin to form lines arid furrows. Cream, butter, milk, cheese, olive oil, and cod liver oil are splendid anti-\vrinkle foods. Some people are fastidious over oil, but taken in lemon juice the oiliness is eradicated. It should be taken three times daily after meals.. Rain water is the best for toilet purposes—hard water will soon roughen the fine texture of the complexion. Failing rain water add a teaspoonful of borax to a bowl of water. Always finish up with a vigorous rinse with cold water, to stimulate the circulation and close the pores. A skin that has a tendency to Hue requires feeding with a nourishing cold cream very frequently.
