SUN-BATHING.
It Is Not So Simple As it Looks.
Sun-burn is not na fashionable
as it used to be; but there are many notable women who are en tirely unrepentant about it. They range from Society beauties to film stars.
Sun-bathing is, however, a much tricklor business than many peple realiso. It needs, in the first place, treatment of the party of the body meant to be exposed.
Legs, we all know, are not al ways beautiful; knees can be ab solutely ludicrous.
A beauty specialist recommends firm and frequent massage of the knees with hot oll, finishing of each treatment with cool bandages dip- |ped in oatmeal water. Legs usual- ly need stimulating treatment and. If possible, a little preliminary colouring.

SOME COMPLEXES.
That Feeling Of Inferiority.
Th's is quite a new complaint, but it is, unfortunately, a common one. Generally speaking an in- feriority complex is born in a per- son and then developed by ill-luck. It can be cured, however, by the patient thinking only of her triumphs and nevar of hor fallut es.

FROCKS AND FURNITURE.
[By Ena Glen.)
A short time ago, two enterpris- ing young gentlemen in London {gave a party' for the display of novel furniture. Their Idea WAS to show the kind of background which the woman of to-day re- quires if the, and her clothes, are to be seen at their best.
