a O m (Z&eel JieW cfOWDcury J UNIQUE PROCESS FOR RETAINING AND REGAINING BEAUTY. By Mllh. Charlotte Siriejj. Does your skin chap or roughen easily, or become unduly red or blotchy ? Let me tell you a quick and easy way to overcome the trouble and keep your complexion beautifully white, smooth, and soft. Just get some ordinary mercolised wax at the chemist's, and use a little before retiring as you would use codd cream. The wax, through some peculiar action, flecks off the rough discoloured or blemished skin. The worn out cuticle comes off just like dandruff on a diseased scalp, only in almost invisible particle 3. Mercolised wax simply hastens Nature's work, which is the rational and proper way to attain a perfect complexion, so much sought after, but very seldom seen. The process is perfectly simple and quite harmless. It is astounding the number of women who suffer from unsightly growths of hair on the face, and it will come as a piece of good news to know that there is a simple subRtance known as powdered pheminol which ■frill remove it . immediately and permanently. Mix a small quanta into a thin paste with h. little water, and apply to the objectionable growths. In two minutes all trace of the hair will have entirely vanished, and your skin will be as soft and smooth as a child's. The hair should be allowed to breathe, and the greasy film around each strand must, be removed with a mild non-alkaline shampoo. Soaps should be tabooed. The very best solution for the purpose can be made by dissolving a teaspoonful of stallax granules In a cup of hot water. It stimulates the soalp to healthy action, Bnd at the same time leaves the hair in that soft, fluffy condition so much admired. Any chemist oan supply vou with an original packet of stallax, sufficient, to make twenty-five or thirty shampoos. One need not resort to the very questionable expedient of hair-dye in order not to have grey hair. The grey hair can-' easily be changed back to a natural colour in a lew days' time merely by the application of a simple, old-fashioned, and perfectly harmless home-made lotion. Procure from your chemist two ounces of tammalite concentrate, and mix it with three ounces of bay rum. Apply this to the hair a few times with a small sponge, and you will soon have the pleasure of seeing your grey hair gradually darkening to the desired shade. The lotion is pleasant, not sticky or greasy, and does not injure tb heir in any war.
