Various Skin Medicines.
A sallow, dirty, and disordered skin
generally points to auto-intoxlcation,
stomach trouble and constipation, dis
ordered general condition and toxic in
testinal tract and calls for a complete
change in the method of living, fre
quent bathing both Internally and ex
ternally and some good blood and body
building medicine. The latter should
be prescribed by a good physician af
tei a ’.borough physical examination.
While I do not desire to say any
thing against the use of the various
preparations on the market for the im
prove inent of the complexion, some of
them are harmful to some skins. As
face powders and rouge are not, strict
ly speaking, proprietary articles but
can be purchased in bulk, it can do no
harm if I speak concerning these, but
. if my warning is heeded many women
will be saved mortification in the
years to come. Anything in the shape
of a powder applied daily to the skin
of the face and permitted to remain
there for a number of hours cannot
but he injurious if for no other reason
than that it stops up the pores of the
skin, defeating nature in her efforts
to throw off, through the natural chan
nels. the impurllles of that portion of
the body; therefore I warn women that
tile continued use of face powders will
partially destroy the pores, or at least
make them unable to perform their
natural functions. Fortunately there
are a number of simple harmless things
that will do much toward accomplish
ing the desired results with the skin
of tie face. Of these lemon Juice is
one of the best, for it possesses both
Hear fling and whitening properties. It
ir. excellent for freckles and also to
t -move tan, but it should be diluted in
the proportion of three tablespoonfuls
to «ach pint of water. Buttermilk is
also a good face cleanser; It will as
sist in the removal of pimples, tan and
slight eruptions. Alcohol also cleanses
the skin, removing pimples, and Is es
1 e dully good to cleanse the skin of
oiliness. Diluted about one-third It
will be found a valuable accessory to
the toilet. I want to speak again of
the value of the simple tincture of
benzoin for the whitening of the skin
and Us general preservation. It should
be used in the proportion of one ounce
to ■> pint of water. If perfume is do- j
sir d use rose water: otherwise, boiled ;
or distilled water should be used. Try ,
the use of soap and water, friction
; nd the articles named above before
using any of the compounds of which
you know nothing. These things I
na' e recommended will show gratify
ing results If used thoroughly and reg
ularly.
Nature’s Sweet Restorer.
I wish women would realize the Itn- I
portance of sleep: not the sleep durjng
the small hours of the morning follow
ing a night of enjoyment, but the
sleep which should be had at regular
Intervals and for a certain number of
hours. It Is Impossible to say how
many hours of sleep are required by
humans, for this varies according to
temperament and environment, but
there are few women who require less
than nine hours of sleep out of the 24,
and these hours should be when possi
ble, between 10 p. m. and 8 a. m. It
has been demonstrated beyond a doubt
that nature provides In sleep, first for
the rest of the body, and not until the
body has been rested does the brain
receive its share of repose. This be
ing the case it follows that persons of
a nervous temperament should have
more hours of sleep than he or she of
a more placid nature. The health of
tiie average woman, particularly the1
housekeeper, is improved by a nap I
during the day. This need not be of
long duration, but It should be abso
Itue repose and be taken minus the
clothing and at full length on a bed;

Is not restful and does one little good.

in the water will lighten llie dark snade
on your upper lip. it will also prevent
i lackheads and greasiness ot the skin.

your cheek can be removed either by
t.e rolysis or a harmies preparation,
an leave no scar. There is not the least
pain or dunger in the removal of these
nlcmishes.

Peroxide of hydrogen will remove
freckles in some cases. Use it clear.

sponge. Ho nut let it get into the
ntiir, ej ebrows or lashes, as it will cer
min'y bleach them.
Trv this lotion for a slilny nose;
lake one dracnm of boracic acid and
mix It with 4 ounces of rose water.
Apply to the nose and it will remove
:he appearance of grease.
1 have light hair but a dark sallow
complexion and am habitually consti
pated and if you would help me
1 would be very grateful to
j ou. Uo you recommend the use ol
cold water as a drink, and if so, how
much a day, M. A. H.
You can never regain your complex
ion until you banish this trouble. Ho
not resort to drugs. Omit breakfast
entirely or take only the juice of an
orange and lemon mixed, in a little
water. Hrink at least two glasses of
water. yip it slowly, as it is more
agreeable to the stomach. For the
constipation resort to internal bathing
to cleanse the lower intestinal tract of
toxic materials, simple piain diet, whole
wheat and grit bieads, and avoidance
of fried greasy foods. Use a body
message roller over the abdomen. This
will churn the water around and
cleanse the colon. Study your diet.
Hrink all the water you can during
the day between meals. Contract reg
ular habits. These simple measures
have cured many a woman of a condi
tion which, if not obviated will wreck
health and beauty.
To remedy a tainted breath one must
look closely to the conditon of the
stomach and the teeth as well. In the
province of the physician lies the
remedies for the former, aided by the
use of common sense In eating and
care of the Intestinal tract by Internal
bathing. The care of the teeth, how
ever, is greatly In the control of the
owner aided by timely visits to the
dentist. I do not believed that all of
realize the importance of caring for
our teeth as they should; true, the de
sire to have white, even teeth Is al
most universal. All seem unwilling to
give the time necessary to attain this
object. Time was when many of the
tooth washes and powders on the mar
ket were more destructive than bene
ficial, but of late years there has been
a decided Improvement In this respect.
The base of all tooth powders Is chalk;
both prepared and precipitated chalk
being used. The prepared chalk has
superior cleansing properties. One of
the best formulas for tooth powders
consists of the following: One ounce
of precipitated chalk, one-half ounce
*
of powdered borax, one-quarter ounce
f powdered myrrah and one-quarter
* me - of powdered orris root. This
powder is not only cleansing, but
soothing, and curing In Its prop
erties; hence most excellent for
. use on tender gums. For a tainted
| reuth, the mouth wash will be found
j most beneficial, although it will by
! no means take the place of the treat -
iit and care of the teeth and stom
n No better mouth wash was ever
used than the simple one made by
dissolving half a teaspoonful each of
fine table salt and commone baking
soda in a teacup full of tepid water;
use freely after each meal, before re
I tiring and again on rising In the morn
ing.
