NOW that summer is over, with its attendant sunburn,
windburn and general rough treatment of the skin, it is,
time to turn our attention, to that probably neglected subject.
There is no doubt of the fact that exposure to the rays of the
sun in summer is beneficial to the entire body, including the
skin, but it does tend to coarsen and open thepores especially
where the skin is naturally oily.
The pores are the ends of tiny ducts,' from which the
natural oil of the body is eliminated. When, they become
enlarged, there is a tendency fojf the oil to clog up, attracting
particles of dust and grime and eventually forming black
heads. So if the ravages of the summer sun are not attended

to, before many moons a clear beautiful skin may be ruined
for life.
How can this condition be overcome? Only bv faithful
adherence to a prescribed routine by giving oneself regular
treatments before retiring.
The first step in such a treatment is to cleanse the skin.
An unclean skin can never be healthy and an unclean skin can
never be beautiful. Pause a moment now. and ask vourself :
Is my skin oily or is it dry ?" UDdn vour answer will denend
the method of cleansing it to be followed. If you answer,
Yes, it is oily, let me warn you. here and now. never to use
cold cream, which will only increase the amount of oil secreted
by your pores. You may use a light vanishing cream in
moderation, however.
The best way to clean an oily skin is, first open the pores
by washing the face in quite hot water until you are red and
flushed. Now lather your face well with a mild soap. A
strong alkaline soap or very hard water will produce effects
quite opposite to the desired results, so be sure of your soap.
Pure Castle, like that used for infants, is very good, although
there are plenty of other good mild soaps on the market.
If you have many blackheads, purchase a stiff complex
ion brush and use this to rub the lather thoroughly in the
"skin. 'For a less serious condition, a vigorous massage' with
the tips of-the fingers will do very well. ,
Rinse off every bit of soap from your face, then splash
with cold water until your face glows. A piece of ice wrapped
in a towel and rubbed over the face is a fine thing, but this
should not be done more than once a ; week. The cold water
or the ice will close i the pores again, and this combination of
thorough cleansing and reduction o f the pores will in a short
while improve the texture df-the oily skin.
Of course, this treatment should under no circumstances
be given more than 'once a day, but the'face should be wrfshed
as often as possible 'during the day with clear Warm water.
If you find your skin losing too much surface oil by this
method, a little vanishing cream, containing as jittle grease
as possible may be used after ..IJie treatment.
Care of the. dry skin requires "an .entirely different meth
od of attack. In the' first place, the dangers of a too dry skin
are that it tends to become harsh and rough to the touch, and
secondly a dry skin wrinkles earlier than an oilyskin.
Hot water and soap are the worst things in the world
for a dry skin, as they tend to make it even dryer. Cleanse
the dry skin with cold cream every night, being sure to re
move every vestige of the cream after using. Massage the
cream into the face gently, then remove with a clean damp
cloth. Rinse the face in cold water then a vanishing cream
or the face lotion to nourish and strengthen the skin will com
plete the treatment. During the day the face may be washed
in warm water without soap. .
y-Besides a daily treatment of either kindwhich L havei
described, an occasional massage by a skilled beauty specialist
will be beneficial. .
Be sure to use only the. best and purest cosmetics, for nn'
amount of' treatments , and massages can counteract the ilb
effects of bad cosmetics constantly used. After all, the best
is'the -cheapest in the end.

For a few years it was important to endeavor to match
one's coat and hat. Now the ban is lifted it is much smart
er to have a hat of the same color, but of a lighter or darker
harmonizing" shade. ' Dark red and -dark xeen coats will
probably demand hats of these hues, a trifle Jighter in com
plexion. AVith da'rk brown, negre' brown-is the proper hat
shade--with a tan coat, brown in this, new color is also good.
Don't1 however, make the mistake of actually using contrast
ing colors it is not the smart thing to do. The season's
note is, harmonizing colors down to the last minor detail ot?
the costume do thou likewise by thy ne wfall hat.
