COSTS NO MORE THAN QUALITY SUGAR DRINKS Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company of Medford Ancient Beauty Recipes Differ Little From Today Bv HENRY MacLENNON United Press Correspondent Rome (UPD Women bent on glamour can take a tip from ancient beauty hints dis covered in Italy. Recipes for health, beauty, and love are turning up in attics and old books. Many of the tips are hundreds of years old. One booklet, called "The Book of Miracles," recently was found in an attic at Ca tania. It contained 100 pages of "cures for mental and phy sical ailments and aids to beauty and baldness." This booklet was compiled by a monk named Father An tonio da Militello. He tran scribed recipes from ancient scripts and local usages which, he said, he personally "prov ed for their worth." Only one recipe which the good friar did not try was a concoction of olive oil and the juice of lizards for bald ness. He died m 1946 at the age of 90, completely bald. Meat and Beeswax These reciDes besan in the Havs of the MedicL Probably the most famous of all .-were pamphlets compiled by Cate- rina Sforza of Forli. bhe was one of the early beauty ex perts in the world. A descend ant. Caterina dei Medici, made famous the Italian art of cos metics and perfumes of the 15th Century. But Caterina Sforza invent ed this. Italian art. And while other great ladies of her day secretly tried out many beauty cures and aids, jealous ly guarding their finds, she published every one of her recipes. Caterina Sforza had a nat ural beauty, but she always feared wrinkles and old age that would "deter a husband's love." Most important for Caterina was the "liscio" or face cos metic. She was not content with ordinary powdered rice or" antimony for the cheeks, saffron for the lips," sage for the teeth, and charcoal for the eyelids and eyebrows. She came up with startling appli cations of fresh meat for the care of the face. x . In face - creams, Caterina Sforza went for refined bees wax mixed with distilled wa ter, which she applied in the evening and removed the next morning by washing off with specially .preserved spring water. Blonde Hair A hand cream consisted of boiled nettle roots and leaves. Nettle juice also was consid ered good for dandruff. Caterina Sforza invented a face-freshener of rose water in which two ounces of cam phor, sulphur and myrrh had been steeped. In Venice, women were the first to dye their hair blonde. Their method was to wash the Get plenty of vitamin C when fighting a cold or flu. The vitamin, which provides ascorbic acid, is found in to matoes, oranges, grapefruit and cantaloupes. Cola, Ginger Drink and Orang ar available in 12 ounct dtpotit bettlM hair in egg and saffron and then bleach it in the sun on their terraces. It was more successful as a means to meet their lovers. Caterina Sforza experiment ed with the problem of bleaching and came up with the usual egg and saffron wash, but added a distilled concoction of cinnabar and sulphur. She also invented the first blonde tints. One was celan dine (figwort), pink agrimony, roots and stalks of brush broom, and oat hay, boiled slowly in a sieve container. The second consisted of pomegranate peels, ash pith, broom flowers and melted soap. Both washes needed careful drying in the sun so that the hair would become the "color of gold." For the lips, her remedy was aquavite and roots of myrrh steeped in a strong wine. A good day-cream for the face was mashed bitter al monds cooked under a slow heat with iris of Levant flow ers, mustard seeds, rose wa ter and unrefined honey. Beauty cures and aids have not changed much in 500 years, it seems. i f Tsl 1 1 WOMEN'S BOY SHORTS ! f jp . 1 J Poplins, solids and fancy denims. m ,1 ' I l 1 ' S'ZeS 1018 ' leUU j j I ' WMEN'S SLEEVELESS BLOUSES j 1 1 Imported cottons.
