The Womea's Gotaer

'special collection op smart AND EFFECTIVE' BEAUTY . . -; KECIPES, Wnat Women Hate. "Helpful Gossip." Every, woman hates a shiny nose and a dull or greasy complexion. Few know that there is an instantaneous remedy at hand in the home, one that is absolutely harmless, and that defies detection even under the closest scrutiny. If you have no cleminite .in the house get about, an ounce • from your; chemist/ and "add gust sufficient water.to dissolve it. A littlo'of this'lotion , applied to the. face -will instantly icause the greasiness 1 to disappear, and tho' 6kin will have.a perfectly natural, velvety,''youthful bloom that any woman, might, envy. The'effect will last for many hours, and no powder is .' re-1 quired, even under the most trying conditions, indoors or out. To prepare the. face, neck and * arms for a .long evening in a hot ball-room nothing can compare with tliis simple home-made lotion. . . . To make the eyelashes grow long, dark and curling, apply a littlo iuennaline with the finger tips occasionally. It is absolutely harmless and beautifies the eyebrows as.well. " . '. ■ . Pilenta soap Is tho most "satisfactory for all complexions. It even works-well in cold or hard lrater. ..■.. . ■'■'" \'"„'.. Permanently Removing S«perflaocs Hair. ' ' -"Toilot Gosiip." Hoir to permanently, not merely, temporarily, remove a'downy growth of-dis: figuring superfluous hair, is what , many women'; wish t6r : 'know. It is, a pity, that,, it%nWmore o f«nefi&ly 'known'that 'pure powdered -pheminol, obtainable from' the chemists, inay be used for this purpose. It is applied directly to. the objectionable; hair.. The recommended treatment not only instantly removes tho hair, leaving no trace, but is designed also to kill the roots completely. . . . The natural allacitoof oraage blossoms irfakes a capital greaseless face cream. , It holds the powder and the natural odour of this' product is, of most delightful.' Many of the smartest women are now using it exclusively, because it does not encourage a. growth of bair on the face. ; . .' The annoying body odour sometimes resulting' from perspiration can be instantly neutralised by tho occasional application of powdered (white) pergol. . . . - Renewing Complexions with Oxygen. > "Bandy Eecipes." Everyone knows that oxygen, consumes waste matter in the body..,A; poor complexion :'is merely tho accumulation of half deadened, or waste matter,' upon tho surface of the 6kin. It eticka on stubbornly, showing in the form of sallowness, moth.patches and a generally lifeless appearance.- Oiygen may be used with advantage in , removing this disfiguration. Any chemist should be able to eupp\y mercolized wax. This contains oxygen in a form that is released when itcomes in contact with tie" skin;' Naturally the oxygen attacks the deadened matter, but- does fnot • affect tho healthy skin at all. Thus a few applications of this perfectly harmless substance soon begins to clear the skin and reveal the beautiful complexion which every woman has just underneath. tho ugly one. Tho process is pleasant and harmless, and Involves no inconvenience whatever. . . . To bring a natural red colour to the lips, frub them with a soft stick of prolactum. , .' . For hot. tired or perspiring feet, nse a teasooonful of powdered onalite in ,» foot bath. A Sfrange Shampoo, "Cosy Corner Chats." . 4 .1 was much interested to learn from this young woman with the beautiful glossy hair that she never washes' it with 6oap or artificial shampoo powders., Instead, she makes her, own shampoo, by dissolving a teaspoonful of stallax grannies in a ,cup of hot water. "I raako my chemist get tho. stallax for mo," said she. "It comes only in sealed packages, enough to make up twenty-five or thirty individual shampoos, and it smells eo good I could almost cat. it." Certainly this littlo lady's hair did look wonderful even if she has strange ideas of a Bhampoo. I am tempted to try the plan myself. _. . . For an actual 'hair grower nothing equals pure boranium. It is quite harmless, and sets tho nair roots tingling with new life. . . . The use of rouge is almost alwaye obvious, bnt powdered colliandum gives" a perfectly paturaloolour and defies defection.—Advt.
