TEN MINUTES A DAY

How

is not much to give to the cause of beauty. many hours do you spend

in playing bridge.. reading. gossiping.. just idling?

VENETIAN CLEANSING CREAM. A light, feathery cream that liquefies quickly with the warmth of the skin and penetrates the depth of the pores where it dissolves and dislodges, all impurities.

NOSHINE. An indispen- sable new accessory that entirely prevents a "shiny' nose. Just, a drop of this colourless liquid applied to the nose before powdering holds the powder smoothly for hours."

VENETIAN ORANGE SKIN FOOD. The best deep tissue builder. It brings to the skin just those nutritive elements. that it needs and in so delicate a form as to be easily assimi lated by the cells. It rebuilds impoverished tissues, streng thens and firms the flaccid. sagging muscles of the face." By nourishing the skin, it keeps the face smooth and round and gives the complexion that desirable well-cared- for look. Orango Skin Food is splendid to prevent wrinkles and flabbiness; and for a thin. of lined face. It is one of the es entials.. for the daily care of the skin according to the Elizabeth Arden method.

ELIZABETH ARDEN stands F. Beauty tru beauty, not what our grandmothers called

"paint"

THAT BEAUTY, 'can be yours, a priceless possession which will give as much pleasure to others" as does it to yourself

IF YOU WILL take her advice and use the Arden preparations care fully and faithfully
