Bo, as variety is the spice of life, and as spica is meant to give an extra fillip to a dish, why not serve up your apple pudding with a now flavour?

Try a sprinkling of cinnamon or nutmeg instead of cloves, or two or thren curls of leman rind. Ginger Is another flavour which com- panions apples very pleasantly,

PRINO blossom, white and plak, sets me thinking about women's complexions. Time to remove the last traces of that weatherbeaten look tow have escaped and get down to the petal pink below.

Have you a weather line? Red rims appeared round the neck, and little tired lines were drawn round oven young eyes. Thank goodness all these can be banished by a good clean up.

"Give a quarter of an hour or so each day to beauty drill: A good clean up Arst with cleansing cream, left on for a few minutes, then wiped off with soft tissues. Then tackle those lines.

Massage in some skin food with the finger tips, rubbing gently in circles across the lines on the neck. Work upwards ou the lines from nose to mouth, or mouth to chin. Don't rub the lines round the eyes, but tap theso gently with the fingers.

Flere is another massage hint which many women don't seem to know. Gentle, massage round the face from ear to ear, at the edge of the hair line, strengthens the face muscles and discourages that sogging which leads to double chin..

Another treatment for slack chin is this. Biz bolt upright, lift the head 'and push the chin forward so that the

muscles of the neck aro taut,

Dead the fingers, then, masage with cach

hand alternatoly (using the top alde of the fingers) from chin to throat. Cream the hands well for this.

Dry skine generally "absorb "a"large part of the cream applled, but at this time of the year most skins are rather "starved," so be generous with the skin food. Wipe off all cream remaining when the massage is done, then splash your face with astringent lotion or distilled witch hazel.

Dry of the dampness with cotton wool Your face will feel-and look-- wonderfully refreshed.
