Aunt Sally's Advice
To Beauty-Seekers
C. M. P.: The neck should receive sim
ilar attention to that given the complex
ion, so color and texture of skin will be
the same. A yellow neck and a white
face give a discordant effect. I advise
using for both neck and complexion, thi
treatment recommended to "Monica,"
E. M. First, stop scowling, if you
would get rid of the lines between the
eyee. The best application for such lines,
and all wrinkles, Is a solution of pow
dered saxollte, 1 ounce, dissolved In witch
hazel, H Pint. Bathe the face In this
dally until entirely relieved.
Monica: You hardly need such a list
of cosmetics as you mention. Ordinary
mercollzed wax will help you more than
any or all of them. It will gradually ab
sorb the withered, discolored complexion
and you will soon have a new. youtii-
ful and healthy-looking skin. You needn't
get more than an ounce of the wax,
wljlch will cost you little at any drug
gist's. Apply nightly, like cold cream,
