But that sun-kissed complex­ ion may not be the wisest way to enhance your looks. Consider the following types of skin damage wreaked by ex­ cessive or unprotected exposure to the sun: • Ultraviolet rays can greatly accelerate the skin's normal aging process. • The protein content of the skin is affected, which can cause even young skin to look and feel leathery. • Too much sun and dry heat causes moisture loss in the cells of the stratum corneum (the out­ ermost layer of the epidermis), resulting in dry and wrinkled skin. • There is increased risk of skin cancer. Caution advised Although individual re­ sponses to the sun vary, it is im­ portant to remember that sun damage to the skin is both cumulative and irreversible. And, just one unprotected sea­ son in the sun can add years to your skin's looks. This does not mean that happy hours on the courts, by the pool or at the beach must be forsaken for the sake of healthy skin. Even fair-skinned persons can enjoy the great outdoors and still avoid the hazards of sun ex­ posure. , An effective sunscreen pro­ duct is the key to fun in the summer sun. But with the many sunscreens on the .market these days, it helps to consider skin type, the time of day and the length of exposure before pur­ chasing a product. Grading system To assist the consumer, the U.S. Food and Drug Adminis­ tration has developed a system of grading sunscreens according to their Sun Protection Factor (SPF). Sunscreen strength may range anywhere from a low SPF of two to a high of 20. At the top of the FDA's sunscreen ranking, with an SPF of 20, is Solar Cream by Doak -- a flesh-tinted cream that shields skin from 99.5 percent of the sun's harmful rays. Originally developed for dermatologists' patients by Df. Frank Panzarelia, biochemist and president of Doak Phar- .macal, Solar Cream is a scientifically formulated cream that protects skin against the en­ tire spectrum of ultraviolet rays from four to six hours. How you use the sunscreen you select is important. It is a must to apply sunscreen liber­ ally on vulnerable areas such as the nose, lips, eyes and ears, as well as on face, hands and shoulders. •In spring and summer, peak sun hours are from 10 AM to 2 PM, so protection is most needed during these hours. Remember, too, that on over­ cast days up to 80 percent of the sun's fays can filter through and give you a painful sunburn. , For more face-saving mea­ sures during the sun season, Dr. Panzarelia recommends using a moisturizer every morning, after sunning, at bedtime -- whenever skin feels dry. Soothing protector His Formula 405 moisturiz­ ing creams and lotions are so light and grease less, they work their soothing, protective magic on all skin types. Formula 405 glides on luxuriously, sinks right in and disappears so that it can be worn under makeup or as a night cream. After using Formula 405 cream or moisturizer, skin will feel softer and look fresher, and makeup will go on more smoothly. Don't you owe your skin maximum protection at its best?

Fighting thatwinter weight gain: new tips and tools for slimming SALES I SERVICE 1241 N. Green St. 385-5500 McHenry *--vnriyiriiy-i-yiv i^v.v,V)lVMtY<>T>Wy^W^ With summer coming and visions of bathing suits and de­ signer t-shirts clashing with that extra 10 pounds picked up over the long winter months, it's time to do something. The "what" is simple: diet. It's the "how" that some folks need help with. Recently, an Advisory Panel to the Food and Drug Adminis­ tration reported on an over-the- counter diet aid that actually works. In a unanimous opinion, the panel found that phenyl­ propanolamine, an appetite suppressant, was "safe and ef­ fective for weight control." Found in such products as Dexatrim and Control, both marketed by the Thompson Medical Company, the sub­ stance effectively reduces hunger without dangerous side effects. Even with an appetite sup­ pressant, dieting requires your concentrated efforts. Here are a few tips that will help. • TO DIET IS NOT TO STARVE: Eat balanced, nu- They will form the core of your regular meal plan once you have reached your weight goals. • KEEP YOUR GOALS REALISTIC: From one to four pounds a week, at most. Try for too much and you'll give up, discouraged. • CURB IMPULSE BUY- * ING: Never shop for groceries on an empty stomach. That's how we end up with a cabinet full of high calorie snacks and baked goods. • DON'T SKIP LUNCH! Being tired and short-tempered never helped a dieter. Often, meats are packaged in 4 oz. por­ tions. Shred one pack, add diced onions, oil and vinegar and carry it to work in a plastic con­ tainer for a light but healthful midday meal. • RESIST TEMPTATION: Appetite suppressants such as Dexatrim or the new caffeine- free Control can make it easier to say "no"; they have been found safe and effective for dieters.

It covers 240 acres right between busy Detroit and busier Metro Airport, but everyone strolls leisurely. Greenfield Village/Henry Ford Museum portrays 300 years of life in America, and perhaps a lesson can be learned from history in the matter of enjoying one's surroundings with a minimum of energy, expenditure. Dedicated in 1929 and founded by Hemy Ford (of au­ tomobile fame), the Village consists of nearly 100 historic buildings in an early urban/ rural atmosphere. Among the buildings meticu­ lously taken apart at their origi­ nal sites and reassembled here are the courthouse where Abra­ ham Lincoln practiced law, the Menlo Park iaboratoiy where Thomas Alva Edison invented the incandescent light, and other edifices closely associ- . ated with Noah Webster, Stephen Foster, Robert Frost, Luther Burbank, George Washington Carver and, of course, Henry Ford himself. The 14 acres devoted to the Ford Museum are covered with historic autos, bicycles, motor­ cycles, trains, wagons and air­ craft. The key word is "historic"--none is older than the year 1926. At the Village Crafts Center, visitors can watch old-time skills: broom making, baking over a brick hearth, tintype photography. You can take a century-old steam train to the Suwanee Park Station to sample antique ma­ chines that test your skill, and then ride a merry-go-round that came from the Pacific North­ west. From May through October there are festivals and celebra­ tions at Greenfield Village.

Re­ move serving dishes from the table. You don't have to look at what you aren't going to eat. • INSTEAD OF A COOL BEER: Try the light Eurofcpan favorite, the spritzer. White wine and soda, on the rocks, if you please* More than just re­ freshing, it contains far less calories. • BUDGET YOUR CAL­ ORIES: Think ahead to special occasions, a beach party or summer picnic, for example. Give a little, take a little. You're entitled to make a trade-off once in a while. If you use an appetite sup­ pressant as a part of your diet, remember this. Often people find themselves reaching for food simply because they " should be hungry" at that time of day. Ask yourself whether it is hunger, or merely habit that is leading you astray^You may be IMMver. Wade fishing at night with no-hands light A good pair of waders and a hands-free light can provide some of the best nighttime angling a fisherman could ever ask for. Wade fishing around shallows with a few bushes and stick-ups can often fill a stringer faster than any other type of night fish­ ing. . The secret is in having a light that provides enough illumina­ tion to let you see what you are doing and where you are going, yet still leaves boths hands free. The 2 in 1 Trouble Shooter from Brinkmann is such a light. It's a unique fluorescent lantern and a powerful spotlight rolled into one. The web strap allows the lan­ tern to hang around the neck at just the right height to provide plenty of light for casting, play­ ing a fish or even working trotlines. Six "D" cell batteries operate this versatile light. For additional information on portable lighting for boating, camping, fishing, emergency and utility use, write The Brinkmann Corporation, 4215 McEwen Road, Dallas, TX 75234.
