Next, she takes a tinted foundation-Jiquld or cream-according to the dryness or sdliness of her skin. It may vary in tone from aprient to bronze, but it must be colourful,

Every inch of her face and neck; including eyelids nud cars, is treated with the Foundation. She leaves it in settle, then removes any surplus with tissues,

With an outalze in powder puffs, she now puffa du, with hard, brisk pata, a literal supply of white powder. When she has reached this stage she loks like a circus clown.

PUFF ON BRUSHE OFF

She gets briskly to work with a soft brush, and brushes her face and neek watil the clown disappears and a charming young woman with a Devonshire cream tinted complexion looks back at her. She now puffs on (with a puff kept specially for the purpose) her dark suntan powder. This, Engnin, is brushed off; 'those tiny erevlees round the nose, mouth and chin, ans carefully treated with a wisp of cotten wool, to make sure that no powder is clogging there.

Finally, into her handbag compart, for touching-up purposes, she pats a third shade of powder. It is a couple of tones lighter than the bronze powder on her dressing table, and is a most important detail in This technique of a suntan make-up.

Reason; powder tends to go darker after some hours on the skin, and this lighter tour corrects it.

The method is simple, but how effective you will only realise when you have experimented with it yourself.

, sed like coal in arcer to raise steam in the boilers or exploded as a gas directly in the cylinders themselves, is now the principal fuel earried in modern liners. The Queen Mary, for instance, ezeries 6,3 tons for use in her 27 xoilers feeding with steam her one high-pressure, two intermediate, and one low-pressure Lurbines driving the propellers.

When the oil is exploded in the cylinder direct, the engines are usually known as the Diesel type. The oil is first vaporised in a series of cylinders and the power thus obtained keeps the propoilers turning round.

The diagram shows how Diesel engines are placed in the ship and commeetest to the propellers by line of shafting, A. Waste gases are carried away up the funnel; B, C, and D, being ventilators to bring fresh air down into the engine room.

This type of marine engine is capable of developing as much as 15,000 and even 25,000 brake horse power, running usually at speeds in the neighbourhood of 100 revolutions per minute,
