Clever Beauty Secrets. Revealed by a London Chemist. This series of artiel'3 ■by li. W. Smith, M.l’.S., a qualified registered T.omlnn chemise and pharmacist, is particularly interesting because of its aulhontati veiios*. ('onsidei in.g I. ho bewildering muss of toilet requisites now offered to llio public Mr Smith's simplo and homely suggestion? should oorao as a gre i-t relief to the puzzled Scanty seeker. Tim dispensing chemist, above all others, is .u a jHisition to judge results from lone: expo rior.re with thousands of cases. Mr Smith has made a special study of the chemistry of beauty culture for many years, and the time is ripe for some such expert's clear statements, backed by the authority of experience ami knowledge. Renswing Complexions. It is foolish to attempt to cover up or hide a sallow complexion, when you can so easily remove the siiilowness itself. Kongo and the like on a brownish skin only emphasises the defect. Tho bettor way is to apply pure mcrcoliscd wax—tho same as you would cold cream —putting it on at night, removing it in tho morning with warm water and soap, following with a dash of cold water. Tho effect of a few applications is simply marvellous. Tho half-dead cuticnle is absorbed by the wax—painlessly, gradually, in tiny, imperceptible particles—revealing tho beautiful velvety white new skin, beneath. XV> woman need have a sallow, blotchy, pimply, or freckled complexion if she will just get some good mercoliscd wax and use as suggested. Feminine Moustaches. To women who are annoyed by disfiguring downy hair growths a method of permanently eradicating tho same will come as a piece of good news, For this purpose pure powdered phominol may be used. Almost any chemist should be able to supply an ounce of this drug. Tho recommended treatment is designed not only to remove tho disfiguring growth instantly, leaving no trace, but also to actually kill the hair roots without irritating tho skin. The Kiss Curl. I cannot too strongly condemn the use of the hot curling-iron. It means death to the hair eventually. Moreover, it is entirely unnecessary. The hair can be made beautifully wavy and curly to any extent and in any form desired, merely by using such a simple ingredient as pure siunerino. Tins perfectly harmless liquid should bo applied to the hair with a. clean tooth brash at night. In the morning you will find that a very beautiful natural wave arid curliness has resulted, and tho effect will Inst many days. Tho liquid silmerine is very beneficial and is not sticky or greasy. A couple of ounces should last a. very long time. The Magnetism of Beautiful Hair. Beautiful hair adds immensely to tho personal magnetism of both men and women. Actresses and smart women are ever on the lookout for any harmbss thing that will incieuse the natural beauty of their hair. The latest method is to use pure stallax as a shampoo on account of tho peculiarly glossy, fluffy, and wavy effect which it leaves. As etallax has never been used much for this purpose, it comes to the chemist only in Jib sealed original packages, enough for twentyfive or thirty shampoos. A teaspoonful of tho fragrant stallax granules, dissolved in a cup of hot water, is more than sufficient for each shampoo. It is very beneficial and stimulating to tho hair, apart from its beautifying effect. What Women Hate. Every woman hates a shiny noso and a dull or greasy complexion. Few know that there is an instantaneous remedy at hand in the home, ono that is absolutely harmless, and that defies detection even under the closest scrutiny. If you have no eleminite in the house get about an ounce, and add just sufficient water to dissolve it. A little of this lotion applied to the face will instantly cause tho gicasincss lo disappear, and the skin will have a perfectly natural, velvety, youthful bloom that any woman might envy. Tho effect will last, for many hours, and no powder is required, even under tho most trying conditions, indoors or out. To prepare tho face, neck, and arms for a long evening in a hot ballroom nothing can compare with this simplo home-mado lotion. Mrs. CLARA E.
