A Casement Window By Marie Marot
f; -
N excellent motto for the amateur interior
decorator to bear in mind is, “Rather
too simple than too elaborate.” Over
elaborateness often leads to gaudy color com
binations and unharmonious lines—the two
worst faults in decoration.
Both of those faults have been avoided in
ihe arrangement shown here. Our artist has
borne in mind that this is a house in the country
—probably of English architecture, simple ar.d
rugged. She has. accordingly, designed her
rooms with corresponding simplicity.
The charming corner sketched here is a
splendid example of quiet furnishing and har
monious color schemes. The walls are mottled
ia oink, yellow, tan and green, which makes a
ijjfAijjfc——[**■»=«—***»
fitting contrast to the dull brown of the beamed
ceiling. The broad casement window, affording
a lovely view of the country, is dressed in drapes
of chartreuse green taffeta. You will notice
that tnere is no valance here, and there should
be none for a casement window of this type.
The window seat and curtains are all done
in the same chartreuse taffeta, while the Chio
pcndale chair is upholstered in yellow satin. An
unbordered, tan rug covers the entire room,
while the convenient little tables are of burn
ished oak and serve a variety of purposes. Color
is furnished by the bright vases, copper asb
trays, cheerful little lamps and fresh flowers os
the tables. Both prints are framed in shiny
black.

COIFFURE OVER FACE
MAY CAUSE BLOTCHES
Take Precautions Against Beauty-Destroying Eruptions
If Your Mode of Hair Dressing Covers Part of
the Face, Warns Miss Huddleston
By JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON
Along about this time of year there seems to be a constant cry about
blemishes that appear on the forehead and cheeks close to the ears. The
answer, perhaps, is carelessness In one way or another and the only solu
tion to the problem is cleanliness and then more cleanliness 1 I don t
mean to Infer that all of you who are troubled with
this beauty ill aren’t doing your stuff with the cold
cream or soap and water, but there is such a thing
as improper use of these preparations. Then. too.
we frequently think our skin is clean when it isn't.
This is especially true when the hair is worn out
on the cheeks and low on the forehead. The con
stant flow of oil from the scalp to the hair and then
onto the skin, coupled with layers of cosmetics mix
ing with the natural oils of the skin, clogs the pores.
The result is either a mass of blotches in the form
of a rash or else troublesome pimples which become
permanent, unless the cause Is removed.
It is not only Important that this area be kept
scrupulously clean, but that the hair be kept clean
as well. If these precautions are not taken blemish
i^crnumr ea are bound to appear
rcrTT^i When a mode of hair dress is adopted that brings
HUODLloIwN the hair well down on the forehead and far out on
the cheeks, a special powder preparation should be used in addition to
the thorough cleansing stressed above. Then, too, the hair should be
pinned back from the face during those hours around the house and
while sleeping This permits the air to get to the skin and helps matters
a lot. Pinning the hair back wnen-i
ever possible also lessens the
amount of oil and powder that It
will collect from the face.
During those hours when one is
on ptrtde. however, the special
powder suggested above acts as an
antiseptic and aids greatly In clear
ing up the blemishes, as well as
preventing more from developing.
It is made by mixing together two
tablespoonfuls of pure Italian tal
cum. one tablespoonful of fine boric
acid powder and a quarter of a
teaspoonful of powdered alum. Stir
these Ingredients until they At
blended then use as you would any
face powder—but only on those
parts where eruptions are visible.
If the blemishes have developed
to a really annoying state substi
tute calomel powder for the one
suggested above, using it until the
skin is clear again. Calomel pow
der. besides having remedial quali
ties is drying in its action and soon
frees the skin of blotches and pim
ples. providing, of course, that it
is applied only after thoroughly
cleansing the skin and that such
blemises are caused from incorrect
cleansing methods.
All of the prepartions referred to
above can be purchased at your
local drug store for a small amoun'
If the hair Is dry there isn't such
great chances of dust and impuri
: ties clinging to it. but with the oily
L type of hair and scalp- frequent
j shampooing and brushing are es
sential to remove the collection of
lint, dust and oil. This is partic
ularly true during the summer
months when perspiration adds its
beauty destroying characteristics.
Two applications of cleansing
cream are necessary to remove all
impurities from the sktn and pores
If soap and water are used instead
;
of cream It is essential that all
soap be rinsed from the skin befora
it is dried.
