Let us assume that your hands steps can we take to bring them up to par ? First of all, the skin is probably roughened and cracked Here's a treatment that will banish that in no time at all At night, after you've washed your hands in warm water, massage a biberal portion of a skin and tissue cream into them. Without removing the cream, slip on a pair of loose gloves for the night The inex- pensive white cotton glives worn by painters and carpenters will do splendidly. The cream will work its way down into the cracks of the skin and nourish the oil glands which have been dried out by too much water Several treatments like this will show miraculous results,

Secondly, perhaps your hands have become reddened. A bleach mask will fix that. Yes, the same preparation which you use on your face to lighten freckles and make your com. plexion even in tone. Use it about twice a week until you've whitened the skin sufficiently. Then just once a week will be enough..

Now that your hands are soft and white, it's your business to keep them that way. Hand lotion is just the thing.

a bottle of it handy and massage a few drops of it into your honds every time they come into contact with water, never be without it!
