Miss Milsom, whose name has been so long and favourably known as a toilette specialist, has some sound common-sense news Embodied in her little pamphlet, “The Lost Secret.” She has words of wisdom on the. topic of heavy unhealthy hair pads and their disastrous consequences, and “points her moral" with sneh excellent and striking similes that the attention is at once arrested. . As for example, the analogy between hair covered with heavy, . miwashable pads over which it is drawn, and the grass on some velvety lawn when it has been concealed under a heavy sack for a time. And when, we coine to wrinkles, and their preventives, and all the evils of mechanical massage and common powders, creams and greasy skin “foods," Miss Milsom has the soundest advice to give.
