A PAGE FOR WOMEN

Glamorous At Forty

If all the women who are in their forties and Afties could come with me to American fash- ion and cosmetic autumn open- ings, they would be immensely flattered. For styles are keyed to this group, and cosmetics and make-up are mixed to preserve and enhance the beauty of forty- plus skin.

Clothes, no matter how stunning or expensive, cannot show to advantage on a figure which shrieks for attention. A normal amount of exercise and sensible eating will keep almost any figure under control.

External Care

If proper care has been given the skin and hair for the pre- vious ten years, the woman over forty should not find it difficult to keep texture smooth, face muscles firm, hair lustrous and manageable, If she has been .neglectful then more diligent daily care is necessary. .There are appropriate normalising cos

metics for proper cleansing. toning, stimulating and softening no matter what your skin condi- tion, and a few moments at night before you go to bed, and a few when you arise; are sufficient to keep your head looking young! Make-Up And Colours

Make-up skilfully used may mean the difference between a smartness and drabness, Make.. up. creates the illusion of beauty if it is handled intelligently. Depth may be added to the colour

¡NE of the most appetizing sights in the world on a cold- day is a great steaming tureen of thick, savory soup ar- riving on the table. The soup looks and tastes so good. It is a heartening, stimulating beginning to a meal.

Nowadays, too, our choice of soups is wider than over before. Thick soups, thin soups, racy soups, bland soups...whatever we want In the way of soup is to be found on the grocer's shelves.
