T.: (a) To give your hair that soft, glorsy sllklncss so much ad mired, use twice a week the following hair tonic. Mix one ounce qulnzoln In one-half pint alcohol, then add one-half pint cold water. This tonic promotes the health of the hair and scalp and keeps the hair soft and Irom getting stringy and matted. It stops the hair falling out and destroys dandruff al most Instantly. For Itching scalp you will find It very refreshing. (b) Yes. your husband will find spur max lotion very fine to use after shav ing. Clara S.: If you want a smooth, rosy complexion that possesses the charms of youthfulness. you must npj. use pow der on your face. It clogs up the skin porefc. enlarges them and oftlmes causes wrinkles. The following recipe Is much better than powder as It does not show on the skin or rub off so easily: Dis solve four ounces of spurmax In one half pint hot water; when cool add two teaspoonfuls glycerine. Apply to the skin, rubbing gently until dry- As a skin whltener and complexion bpautl fler you will find It simply grand. I find It excellent for removing and pre venting freckles, skin pimples, rough ness, sunburn! and chapping In the wind. This lotion will take off the shine to your skin and remove that sallow, ereasy look. T. A. V.: Never shampoo with soap. The alkali In soap Is too strong for the hair and will make It coarse, faded and streaky. It Is also dangerous to use bo called "dry shampooes" as the pow der simply clogs up the pores in tho scalp, causing dandruff and falling, split hairs. To make a good, beneficial sham poo that will be absolutely satisfactory, simply dissolve a teaspoonful of canthrox In a cup of hot water. This makes a fine lather that removes thoroughly all dirt and excess oil. After shampooing rinse tho hair with clear water. Your hair will dry very qulcklv and be so soft, fluffy and glossy. This shampoo is used generally bv the best class of hairdressers, as it keeps the hair and scalp in such splendid condition and pro duces a fiufflness that lasts. It Is In valuable for removing dandruff and scalp irritation. You can get canthrox at any drug store. Grace M.- To beautify a complexion that Is marred by large pores rough-, ness, blackheads, freckles and even wrinkles, you will find nothing better to use than this excellent, greaseless cream-Jelly which you can prepare at home at small expense: Stir together two teaspoonfuls glycerine, one ounce almozoin and one-half pint cold "water and let stand a few hours before using. This cream-Jelly will clear up your skin, removing all dirt from the pores and In a short time your complexion will be clear, plump, velvety, and unwrln kled. I know of nothing that will fresh en up a complexion or that Is as good a skin beautlfler as this simple prepara tion. A. T. X.: The presence of fn on the chin Is extremely annoying, but If you try a delatone paste you can quick ly remove It. With a little delatone mix some water to form a thick paste and spread on the downy growth. Let re main two or three minutes, then rub off and wash the chin. While delatone costs a dollar an ounce. It seldom Is necessary to apply It more than once. Maxlne: To keep your eyes bright, sparkling and full of color and expres sion, simply get an ounce of crystos at any drug store; dissolve It In a pint of cold water and put a few drops In each eye twice daily. This tonic Is very soothing and strengthening and will soon remove all signs of weakness, In flammation and make your eyes Just as attractive and charming as ever. I find It splendid for treaUng granulated lids and as an aid to those who wear glass es. Mrs. T. B.: If your fat does not yield readily to ordinary flesh reducers, try this one which I know has restored many to tnetr rormer slender figures Get four ounces of parnotls at your druggist's and dissolve It In one and, one-half pints hot water. When cool, strain and take a tablespoonful of the liquid before each meal. Parnotls Is harmless and will not Injure your health. I feel sure you will get splendid results from Its use and will then recom mend It tp your friends. Head" Mrs. Martyn's Book, "Bcauty, $3-Adv.
