THE WRINKLED BROW HOW TO TREAT IT Many an otherwise good-looking girl is distressed because her face is marred by brow wrinkles. If a critical examination through the mirror indicates early formation of disfiguring lines, the hot water treatment will do much to prevent them going deeper into the skin. Prepare a' basinful of hot soft water, and take two heavy flannel bandages, each long enough to go round the head and eight inches wide. Double the bandages lengthways and soak them in the water. Wring out one strip and place it across the brow, carrying the ends to the hack of the head and holding them firmly with the left hand. Now massage the brow—or rather the flannel over the brow—with the finger tips of the right hand. Use the second bandage as soon as the first one becomes dry and cool, and continue the treatment for ten minutes. If you repeat it every night for a few weeks you will gradually erase the lines. Each application may be followed up with a few rubs with the finger tips lightly coated with cold cream.

Should the brow lines have already .gained a hold, bathe and massage the forehead and, instead of following np with cold cream, have a five-minute massagfe with the finger tips dipped in egg white, honey and rosewater, and leave the lotion on all night.

To prepare the lotion: Well whisk the white of an egg, add a teaspoonful of honey and half a teaspoonful of rosewater; bottle, cork tightly, and shake well before using. Do not prepare more than one week’js supply at a time, or it will lose much of Its effect.

I To remedy brow lines that have | been allowed to furow deeply into the skin, bathe in the hot water, but omit the massage. While the skin is still soft and moist, stick a piece of court plaster on the brow, keeping the forehead as smooth and unwrinkled as possible, and leave it until next morning. The plaster need only be applied every other night once the lines begin to grow fainter, and the massage with egg white and honey should take its place altogether when ais- ; tinct improvement is noted.
