Clever Beauty Secrets. Revealed by a London Chemist. This series of articles iby E. W. Smith, M.P.S., a qualified registered London chemist mid pharmacist, is particularly interesting because of its authoritativencss. Considering the bewildering mass of toilet requisites now offered to the public Mr Smith’s simple and homely suggestions should come as a great relief to the puzzled beauty seeker. ’I be dispensing chemist, above all others, is -n a position to judge results from long experience 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, hacked by the authority of experience and knowledge. Renewing Complexions, lilt is foolish to attempt to cover up or hide a sallow complexion, when you can so easily remove the aallowness itself. Rouge end the like on a brownish skin only emphasises the defect. The better way is to apply pure mcrcolised wax—the same aa you would cold cream —putting it on at night, removing it in the morning with ■warm water and soap, following with a dash of cold water. The effect of a few applications is simply marvellous. The half-dead cuticule is absorbed by the wax—painlessly, gradually, in tiny, imperceptible particles—revealing the beautiful velvety white new skin beneath. No woman need have a sallow, blotchy, pimply, or freckled complexion if she will just get some good mercoliaed wax and use as suggested. Feminine Moustaches. To women who are annoyed by disfiguring downy hair growths a method of jiermanently eradicating the same will come as a piece of good news. For this purpose pure powdered pheminol may be used. Almost any chemist should bo able to supply an ounce of this drug. The recommended treatment is designed not only to remove the disfiguring growth instantly, leaving no trace, but also to actually kill the hair root* without irritating the akin. The Kiss Curl. I cannot too strongly condemn the use of the hot curlin"-iron. It means death to the hair eventually. Moreover, it is entirely unnecessary. The hair can bo made beautifully wavy and curly to any extent and in any form desired, merely by using such a simple ingredient as pure siJmorine This perfectly harmless liquid should bo applied to the hair with a clean tooth brush at night. In the morning you will find that a very beautiful natural wave and curliness has resulted, and the effect will last many days. The 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 the personal magnetism of both men and women. Actresses and smart women are ever on the lookout for any harmless thing that will increase the natural beauty of their hair. Tha latest method is to use pure stallax as a shampoo on account of the peculiarly glossy, fluffy, and wavy effect which it leaves. As stallax has never been used much for this purpose, it cornea to the chemist only in ilb sealed original packages, enough for twentyfive or thirty shampoos. A tea-spoonful of the fragrant stallax granules, dissolved in a cup of hot water, is more than sufficient for each shampoo. It is very beneficial and stimulating to the hair, apart from ita beautifying effect. What Women Hate. Every woman hates a shiny nose and a dull or greasy complexion. Few know that there is an instantaneous remedy at hand in the home, one that is absolutely harmless, and that defies detection even under the closest scrutiny. If you have no cleminite in the house get abotit an ounce, and add just sufficient water to dissolve it. A little of this lotion applied to the face will instantly cause the greasiness to disappear, and the skin wiil have a perfectly natural, velvety, youthful bloom that any woman might envy. Tha effect will last for many hours, and no powder is required, even under the most trying conditions, indoors or out. To prepare the face, neck, and arms' for a long evening in a hot ballroom nothing can compare with this simple home-made lotion. Good News for Nerve Sufferers! You can now buy the genuine original SAHATOCEN (The True Tonic Food) “Is Sanatogen a necessity to the country?” was a question asked in the British House of Commons before the Government had sanctioned the sale of the Sanatogen business to the English Company which now owns it. “It depends on whether we can manage to preserve good nerves ! ” replied the Elome Secretary—thus indicating his knowledge of the fact that Sanatogen Is universally acknowledged to be the most efficient means of maintaining the nervous system in a healthy and vigorous condition. Soon afterwards the Sanatogen business was purchased by the late Lord Rhondda Food Controller during the most critical period ofthe War—and there has since been such an enormous demand for Sanatogen that we have had to open a large new factory at Loughborough, Leicestershire, in order to supply the Colonial markets.
