A Few Toilet Hints

(By Phtllis Mokxman.) In this article Miss Phyllis Monkmsn, who is universally acknowledged to be the most beautiful and fascinating artist on the English stage, gives a few hints on the cars of the Complexion, Hair, eto. A perfect complexion is, like the proverbial poet, born and not made, but 1 do not quite agree. Whether one’s complexion good or otherwise, depends very largely upon the care one bee towa upon it. Never use a face cream unless you art sure that it is a really good one, and if you take my advice you will aJwayi use pure mercolised wax. This preparation makes the skin soft and white and keeps it eternally fresh and yoiing-loofc-ing, for it gently and imperceptibly peeli off all the dead outer skin, and leave* the new skin beneath. I believe everyone has a pretty complexion underneath you know, and it only requires a littl* meroolised wax to remove the ugly old one, and disclose the new pretty one. Just get a little mercolised wax tiora your chemist, and when you go to bed, smear a little gently over your faco and leave it on all night. Then in the morning wash it off, and even after oh* night’s use you will be surprised at th* improvement you will notice. For the Hair. The chief point in the care of one’* hair is the choice of a good shampoo. You want something -which will make it soft and fluffy, and yet not too dry. For this you cannot do better than use a little stallax. Stallax ie not a new preparation, and it was known to our grandmothers who took far more care of their hair, I believe, than we do, and it not only makes the hair soft, buA brings out all the bright lights in it. Put about a dessertspoonful of stallax granules (which you can buy at any chemist) in half a pint of hot water, allow them to dissolve and use as an ordinary shampoo, and unless you wish to, you need not rinse your hair, foe stallax leaves it quite soft without rin®4 ing. Should your hair be thin or falling too much, I woud advise you to get two ounces of boranium and mix it with water and a little bay rum. This yon should dab into the roots every night, after massaging the scalp for five minutes with the tips of the fingers. In a few days the excessive fall will stop, and soon you will have quite a fine head oi hair.
