Some of The Things To Do if You Would
Look Your Best.

than rure. but this is espe-

cially so with sunburn, which
is by no means easy to cure. and
certainly not attractive when the
brown tint turns into a sickly yel-
low. You will find the following
quite a good plan: Before going
out in summer rub a little bensoiu
and cucumber lotion into the face.
throat. chest. and any part of the
skin that is exposed. and dust
lightly with a rather brown pow—
der —~ natural colored Fuller's
earth is quite a good medium to
use. A very little will form a pro-
tection. for nothing looks worse in
the strong light of the country or
at the seaside than make-up of
any description.

Freckles are among the most
aggravating of summer blemishes.
and being skin deep, are difficult
to get rid of without removing
the epidermis itself, so that a
oltion strong enough to take away
the freckles would bring the skin
with them. ‘

Sometimes they prove amenable
to treatment and respond to being
bathed with buttermilk. or if but-
termilk isnot to be had, butter-
milk lotion.

This lotion should be applied
frequently during the day with a
little wad of cotton-wool. Lemon
juice applied frequently and al.
lowed to dry on also has a. bleach-
ing eflect, but 'in this case as in
sunburn. precaution is ten times
better than cure. -

A Steam Bath

If you are going anywhere very
special and are anxious to look
your best. there is nothing more
refreshing than a "steam bath"
for your complexion. It not only
frees the'pores from all impurities.
but removes that "tired" look‘and
stimulates a jaded circulation.
supplying the much-coveted and
much-admired "roses."

The secret of successful steam-
ing at home is to have plenty of
boiling water. All that is required

PREVENTION is always better

besides is a pot of good" cold

cream. or any massage cream or
skin food. a little cucumber and
bensoia lotion. obtainable at any

druggist, and several soft face

cloths.

Begin by covering your hair
with a bathing cap or a towel,
then wash your face. with the
cucumber and bensoin lotion.
using‘ it freely. Cover one of the
face cloths with boiling “by,

wring it out. and apply gently to

the face. The better you can bear
it the more quickly the pores will
open. and as soon as the cloth loses
its heat replace it with another

hot cloth. repeating the process

tour or live times.
‘An alternative method is to

hold the face over very hot water,

covering the bowl and head with
a towel to keep the steam in: but

this must be done for a long time.

. I

When the pores are open. dry
the face gently and apply the cold
cream. using it lavishly. Massage
round and round. paying particu-
lar attention to any wrinkles and
being careful not to stretch the
skin.
least live minutes.

Then wipe off the grease with
a hot. damp cloth. and apply—two
or more hot cloths to remove all
the dirt that the message has
stirred up.

All skins suffer if they are
washed continually in hard water.
but this can be softened if it has
a little oatmeal or almond water
added to it. andsnother way is to
tie up some oatmeal in a little
bag. with some grating of lemon
peel. This bag can be used in the
washing water several— times be-
fore it needs changing.

Plenty of Sleep

The woman who wants to look
years younger than she really is
must remember that plenty of
sleep is essential. at least eight
hours every night.

A little gentle face massage be-
fore retiring will help to relax the
tired muscles and eliminate any
lines that may have formed during
the day. ‘

The middle-aged woman who
wishes to rvs the youthful
texture of her skin cannot be too
generous in the use of a good
cream. It will not only counter-
act the lines that may be forming.
but will prevent coarsening oi! the
skin and render it less liable to
reduces or blotches.

It is a mistaken idea to place
much faith in the use of astrino
gents for preventing or removing
wrinkles. A mild astringent used
in conjunction with a good cream
is always beneficial, but the ter-
ture and condition of the skin
must always be taken into consid-
eration before using any sstrin~
gent, for excsgive or lniudicious
use will make the skin dry and

shrivelled. _

Eat Bananas

Some Popular 'Beliers Are All '
Wrong; When is a Banana Ripe?
THERE is no trait about which

there is such a variety of
opinion as the banana. In

'one old time book on food values

we read the statement that "one
banana contains as much nourish-

.ment as two slices of bread". And

somehow the opinion has got cir-
culation that "the banana contains

‘ all the elements of food necessary

to maintain life". You will find
plenty of people who would feel
that they would starve soon
enough on most fruit but could
live on a diet of bananas.

Now the truth of the matter is
that there are other fruits that
contain more fuel value "per pound
than the banana. The grape is
considerably more nourishing in
this way and pears and raspber-

Queer Things
People Eat

FOIE GRAS

’1‘ would be an inmrestlng thing
I to learn jusghow it was that

the idea of producing foie gras
was originated. ne thing is cer—
tain, it was t produced by
natives of France orGermanyu—
about “Strasburg and Teulouse—
and it would be dimcult to imagine

the originator.

Foie gras is. as every one
knows, the liver of artificially
fatted geese. In order that the
goose .msy become as fat as pos-
sible he is penned in so as not to
take any more exercise than is
necessary for the maintenance of
health. and he is fed as much as
possible.

lug, it must be a great thing to
belong to a producer of fols gras.
Interestingly enough. great care
is taken to keep these corpulent
geese in good health. When one
of them shows the slightest signs
of sickening under his system of
fattening the treatment is halted
at once and not resumed until the
goose feels quite fit again.

There fire various sorts of foie
gras, but the sort that is put up

 

be well as produced on the other
side is by far the best. There is
feie‘ gras au natural. pate de foie
gras. puree de role gras and
saucisson or sense. de i'oie gras.
They are all made from the fatted
goose liver.

The flavor of this delicacy— is
generally liked and the” taste
for it usually needs no ‘culth
vation as do_ some of the other
European table luxuries. Be sure
that it is ‘well chilled before
using it if you would have the
flavor at its best. It is most de-
licious when worked up with a
little sweet butter and then spread
on thin slices of bread or split
rolls to make sandwiches.

It's Vitamine.

As for vitamines the only one
of the three that the banana is
known: to possess is Vitamine “C"

sesses; but the banana. is not re-
garded as a "good source" even
for this. Grapefruit. lemon juice,
orange juice. strawberries. rasp-
Vberrles and blackberries are all
richer in this vitamins.

it is small wonder that Inez N.
gMcFee in her new book “Food and
gliealth" makes the statement that
g“'1‘he banana as a food is over-
;estimated.” She adds that "Many
ipersons find it hard to assimilate."
3 Still the banana is useful by
away of variety and valuable in the
‘diet so long as one does not ex—
pect too much of it. To some
persons the flavor of the banana
is very pleasant indeed. To real
authorities on banana flavor much
depends on the degree of ripeness
'of the banana. According to them
'any one can know the best of
bananas without _ eating them
‘fresh where they are grown. No
:freshly ripened banana is better
than one that is properly ripened
ianywhere. One authority says that
Sit is as absurd to eat a banana
.that has not reached a really ripe
‘stage as to eat a raw potato.

\"hi’n it I! Ripe.

& The. time when a banana is just
light is when the skin has turned
a rich yellow with little brown
spots. You should not wait until
‘it has become brown or untl there
are decayed spots that must be
tout out. It is especially important
that the banana should not be
.bruised and that the skin should
not be broken. If it is taken from
ithe stalk before it is perfectly ripe
{enough of the Wood of the branch
‘should be cut to make sure that
the skin is not broken.
