AN INTERESTING SALE.
Kayser stockings have also come in this week in eighteen different shades including the fashionable gun metal tones.
It is this quality of absolute rest- fulness that makes a face marango so invaluable an aid to beapty. The drowsy sensation induced by the hot towels and later by the soft fingers of the masseuse moving over your face, does as much to remove the wrinkles induced by worry, as the actual massage. In fact whe ther she is anxious, as most women are, to preserve a youthful com plexion or not, every woman who takes an active part in the modern world with its constant rush of busi- ness and pleasive, should have a regular face massage. The enforced inaction for about three quarters of an hour, and the absolute relaxation of every part of the body, will do more than a bottle of tonic, or in numerable cocktails, to keep her in good health and good temper. If all husbands of irritable wives in- sisted од their having a face massage once a month there would be less domestic friction !
In Hong Kong, you cannot do better than go to the Darrelle Beauty Shoppe where you will get a skilful and delightfully restful Tace massage.
