BEAUTY COLLECTION.
CUTTINGS FROM BBAUT3C ARTICLES. THE CREAM OF MODERN BEAUTS ADVICE. REMOVING BAD COMPLEXIONS. Cosmetics can never really help a poor (complexion; often they are positively harmful. The sensible, rational way ia to actually remove the thin veil of stifling, half-dead scarf skin from the face, and give the fresh, vigorous, and beautiful young skin underneath a chance to show itself and to breathe. This is best done in a very simple way, Vy merely applying mercolised wax at night, like cold cream, and washing it off in the morning. It absorbs the disfiguring cuticle gradually and harmlessly, leaving a brilliant natural complexion. Of course, this also takes with it all such facial blemishes as red blotches, tan, moth patches, sallowness, liver spots, eta The new skin is usually several degrees lighter, and finer in texture. TO KILL HAIR ROOTS. Women annoyed with disfiguring growths of superfluous hair wish to know not merely how to temporarily remove the hair, but how to kill tho roots permanently. For this purpose purepowdered pheminol may be applied directly to the objectionable hair growth. The recommended treatment is designed not only to instantly remove the hair, but also to actually kill tho roots so that the growth will not return. About an ounce of pheminol should be sufficient. HOW TO HAVE THICK AND PRETTY HAIR. Soaps and artificial shampoos ruin many beautiful heads of hair. Few people know that a teaspoonful of good stallax dissolved in a cup of hot water has a natural affinity for the hair and makes the most delighful shampoo imaginable. It leaves tho hair brilliant, soft, and wavy, cleanses the scalp completely, and greatly stimulates tho hair growth. The only drawback is that stallax seems rather expensive. It cornea to the chemist only in sealed |lb packages. However, this is sufficient for 25 or 30 shampoos, and it really works out very cheaply in the end.
