Beauty Culture I read somewhere, the other day, that tho doctor says a man is as old as his arteries: woman, replies the beauty specialist, is as old as her complexion. | And the answer is by no means as frivolous as it sounds, for age is largely a matter of health, and health in women is nearly always reflected in clear skin land good colour. The complexion test is therefore a perfectly fair one and the woman who cannot pass it with credit should take the first step and attend to her health. Having done this and provided a good basis on which to work, attention to external treatment in the form of massage and make-up, should be taken. Care of the complexion is of vital importance to any loinan wtih a desire to make the most of her natural attractiveness. You will find that Catherine Enwright Beauty Parlours, Wakefield Chambers, will render invaluable assistance on reducing methods, the care of your figure and complexion, and how to cultivate beauty iu every way.

Engagement Rings. it doesn’t, matter what changes we see in jewellery fashions, diamonds never lose favour. They have a very special appeal to all. and for the engagement ring, there’s no doubt that they are the queens of the world of gems. J. Williams and Co., Jewellers,, makes a specialty of fine diamonds, and just now some really beautiful stones sparkle enticingly from the little velvet eases in the windows. Very lovely are the rings with the new fashionable hexagon setting, which certainly shou s off a good stone to its best advantage, as well as being a perfectly safe setting. A beautiful cluster of diamonds with a perfect gem in the centre, is the design of one lovely ring that is bound to appal. Another ring shown me had one gorgeous stone set in platinium, with tiny diamonds at cither side. Some splendid solitaires are to be seen, and others with two, three, or five stone, are among the tasteful and charming rings to be seen at J. Williams and Co. Tho prices range according to the size of the diamonds. Don’t forget to look in the window next time you arc passing. Eat Vitalizing Bread. Wo all know that among the food groups that govern tho health of the body, is protein, and some of tho best, and most digestable types are found in lentils, cereals and beans. This builds the tissue and muscle of the body.

This is a flour made from the Soya Bean, which has a very high food value.

Precious Eyesight There is no more important organ of the body than the eye, and blessed indeed is the person who can boast perfect eyesight. They are our most precious possession, yet few people o<in claim absolute freedom from eye trouble. There is so much going on in those days that the eyes are continually being exercised, and so many things which affect the visual organs. When defective eyesight is not corrected by suitable glasses needless strain is thrown upon tho ocular muscles and they become weakened. Many people suffer from headaches, and a frequent cause of headache is eye-strain. Do not neglect to have the eyes tested if headaches persist. There is no excuse nowadays for anyone to let their eyes trouble them—they have only to consult Mr D. Lilburne, Optician, Victoria Avenue, to prove this. “Oh, 1 wouldn’t wear glasses,’’ is a remark often made by people of all ages, but in these days, eyeglasses, as well as clothes, can be made to suit the individual. As a matter of fact, many uro vastly improv ed by the addition of spectacles, espec ially the latest variety. It seems to add a touch of distinction to quite a number of faces. All the very latest and smartest of glasses are to be found at Mr I). Lilburne’s. One of tho newest is a lense different to anything yet seen. Conforming to the latest style of mount, its is three-sided 011 top. and the lower half is rounded as usual, giving distinguished appearance. Lenses of all shapes and sizes to meet the needs of clients arc to be found there, and glasses are made ami fitted to give every possible- comfort, to the wearer. Very attractive and smart are the glasses of to-day; they do not mar the appearance. You can choose rimless, white gohjg nr those framed in latest engraved gold. Apart from the oina

mental side, you can be quite sure that you eyes will get tho skill and attention they need, for Air D. Lilburne has ths most modern and up-to-date equipment.
