ELIZABETH 'ARDEN, whose smart frequented by the most beautiful womon of the fashionable world, sends theso wise suggestions to all women:
Don't mistake the cultivation of loveliness for maka-up. They are miles apart? It is wisdom, of course, to make subtle use of fino toilet accessorios to enhance and accent the features and the natural colouring. But it is tragic to iry to hide blomishos with cosmetics, for each year you will grow more dependent on these artificial means of conceal. ing the ravages of your unwisdom.
Learn to care for your skin scientifically, to keep it young and naturally lovely. Quicken the circulation that carries off poisons and brings fresh colour to the cheeks. Nourish the tissues to keep them firm and round. Drive away all signs of age by holding the keen contour and the radiant sparkle of youth. You can!
