The way with wrinkles is to "catch 'em young."

Essential To Charm

The wrinkle that comes and goes, like a dimple, will not de- velop into a hard line if it is dis- couraged from the first.

The real problem in beauty is the line that comes and stays; that digs in until it becomes a deep crevice and appears to be the most prominent feature' of the face.

When this type of line remains fixed for ten or fifteen years only 'dynamic' treatment can restore the subcutaneous padding of flesh upon which it is reconstructed.

Most successful ·, treatment for the hardened wrinkle is, electri-. eity. If we understood enough about its power for rejuvenation women would be able to turn on the electric current beside the dressing table and iron out facial frowns and furrows almost as simply as switching on the electric «icon" to "dress' lingerie-and neck-.

Housewives' Notebook

AFTER washing enamelled or painted floors with hot water, wipe them over with a cloth, which has been rinsed in cold water, as this helps to harden them again after the hot water.
