PHONB 115w SUBSCRIPTION RATB $1.00 A YBAR Stratford, July 16, 1926 SECRETS OF CHARM By Marilyn Miller . In our dear grandmothers' day, makeup for any woman, except thase associated with the theatre, was an unthinkabie as buying canned fruits. But times have changed, and in bus- iness, in shops, in the professions, women realize more and more that ap- pearance is a goodly percentage of the elementS necessary to achieve success. - The woman of today realizes that she can give only a limited amount of time to cultivating her good looks. But that every woman can improve on Nature. First, and most important, is the matter of complexion. There' is no doubt that the long-faced moralists who taboo the use of rouge and pow- der have come only upon the strug- gling artists who have not yet be- come proficient in the art of make- up. : The skin, before applying any make up whatever, must be absolutely clean. Soap and water will not give the tiny pores of the face the thor- ough cleansing they require daily. But a good pure cold cream will do this. With the tips of the finger take out of your cold cream tube a por- tion about the size of a walnut. Brush the tip of the nose with the cream first,. then the forehead between fie eyebrows, the chin, the sides of the face near the ear lobes and lastly, use the remaining cream at the Sides of the eyes where wrinkles are prone to come first. The movement of the first and mid- dle finger which, by the way, are the only two fingers used for cleansing should aiways be circular. Run these fingers down the bridge of the nose first, spreading the cream to right and left. Then, with a circular motion re- peat this movement untid the co:d cream is spread out upon the cheeks. The cream on the forehead between the eyes is spread with a circular Mo- tion across the tops of the eyebrows, around under the eyes and up agail at its original place. The chin must be cleansed, too, with a circular ™o- tion. Leave the cream on for five or ten minutes. Then, with a soft bit of old linen, or a small pad of sterile cotton, remove the cream, this time always working downward. Upward motion in- removing the cream forces it into the gaping pores and causes blackheads. If your skin is very sensitive you can omit the next step in the de velopment of your complexion. But if you are blessed with a ruddier skin. it is well to apply next a heavy lather of pure soap and warm water. Put the lather with the two fingers well into the skin. Then rinse the face with lukewarm water again and again, until all traces of Soap disap- pear. If you find upon close examinetion now that the skin is somewhat dry I would recommend a good massage cream, The girl who omits the soap-lather treatment because of the sensitive- ness of her particular skin will do well, however, to indulge in a little of the massage cream, Apply the massage cream, which should be rich and creamy, and not too dry. The excess of masSage cream is re- moved the same way as the cleansing cream and the skin is then ready to receive its garnishing. Sometimes it Phone 51 10.30 a.m.--Morning Worship. y Lord.'

Of all forms of government, those administered by bureas are about the least satisfactory to an enlightened and progressive people.

This is recommended in cases where the skin is inclined to be oily. But for the wo: man whose skin has the tendency to become dry or wrinkled , do not use the witchhazel bath. The light touch- es of makeup that are now recog- nized requisite to any dainty Wwom- an's toilet are applied directly after It is very esSential that you choose your powder specificaly. If you have an olive complexion naturally, do not attempt to use a pure white powder. There is the brunette shade for that skin. If you are of real Oriental type, with dark eyes and hair and have that deeper olive tone in your skin, the shade call- ed "Rachel" is what you need. But the girl whose eyes are blue or grey and who has an olive tint in her coin- plexion must be very careful not to take white nor flesh nor brunette. -- °, e WE HAVE JUST 20c 25c Gainborough's Newest Powder Puff Creations In smartest of summer colors--Nature's Own.
