ATTENTION TO GROOMING
Do you know any woman over! twenty-five who isn't reluctant to tell her age? Then why is it that the majority of women grow slack in their personal grooming just when they want the world to think they are a couple of years younger than they actually are?
"But I'm not trying to catch a beat," is a common phrase of the woman over thirty who is mar ried and perhaps a mother. "Why should I fret over my looks. ali my age?" is another. And the most common of all is: "If L look clean and neat I should worry. Anything more would be silly, at my age!"
T
You've heard them, haven't you? And the women who speak those phrases glibly are usually pretty dowdy and a headache to their children and husbands! They may look clean and neat and-"no one; need be ashamed of them," but they lock ten years older than they are and far less attractive than they could be!
i
Naturally, being a beauty ad- viser, I feel it is every woman's duty to be just as attractive appearance, manner and thought,|
time and budget will permit.

Hair Styles
It is so easy to go year after year doing one's hain the same way. Every woman can grasp a}; new lease, on life by going to a good hairdresser and having her hair restyled and possibly a wave put in it. Before going however, it would be well for her to glance through a few style magazines and get some idea of which of the linew. styles might become her. Some hairdressers get a carried away, with their "art", that they forget we women have to comb and dress the hair when we are miles from. a beauty salḥn!! Sim¬{ ole styles, but new in shaping, is what you should strike for.
Don't Be Self-Sacrificing
I've seen many a self-sacrificing mother grow so dowdy that ever their children wish ardently that They would go out and buy some new clothes! The very children for whom they have been denying themselves! Let some other mem- ber of the family go without, once in a while, and spruce up yourself a bit. Even pay more for an out- fit than you usually do and get| one that you will love to its last thread!
You might even experiment with gay fingernail Colouring (when you step out) and have some secret fun seeing what a lot of beauty you can add to your eyes with a bit of brown mascara and a matching brow stick! More foower to you), women, over thirty, Stay young, look young, be young!
