QUICK REMEDIES
FOR SMALL PROBLEMS. If your hair is grey and faded, try the following sage remedy. Pour a quart of boiling water over one ounce of sage leaves and allow to simmer until the quantity is reduced by one-third. Move to one side and allow to stand for twenty-four hours. Strain and bottle. Massage into the hair each night. Cow’s milk, sponged on the skin with pads of cotton-wool, will act as a tonic and an astringent. Combat that shiny nose. The tiniest application of flesh-coloured grease paint will keep the shiniest nose at bay for an evening. First smear a faint trace of cold cream on the skin, and then a little of the paint. Lint, fluff or hair can be easily removed from woollen clothing by moistening a sponge with water, squeezing it almost dry. and applying to the cloth.
