J VIIHAT does your glass show you by " the pitiless light of a Sunday 3 morning? • It is a lucky woman who can face her reflection undismayed after a week ' of hectic pleasure or work, m which there has been little time for the peri sonsxl care so important to every -wo- ; a. man. •- Sunday morning is often the , slackest time. Begin 'It with a « I good rest. Follow this up with a- , hot bath, with the addition of a little ammonia or an astringent ' s salt. I Scrub with a loofa sponge and much gusto, Next shampoo the hair very 3 thoroughly ' with a good super-fatted I soap and dry m the sun, if possible.
