BEAUTY -SHOP SECRETS.
When you lean hack in your conn-
fortable chair in the gray and rose
boudoir of n beauty shop you marvel
at the shining array of bottles and.
jars on the glass -top table. Some-
times they use as many as eight dif-
ferent preparations on your race and
neck. But you don't want eight separ-
ate jars of cream on your dresser.
Here's the secret: Most of these
creams are made from one good basic
cream. Just as a good cook can make
one batch of cooky dough turn out a
dozen kinds of coolies, so one good
cream San be made to serve a variety
of needs. Treat the basic cream with
lemon for a tanned, dry skin; with
peroxide for a tanned, oily skin; with
benzoin for a super -dry, tanned skin;
with flaxseed ointment for pimples;
with sulphur for blackheads; with
real cream for medium -old wrinkled
skins; with orange for premature
wrinkles; with eggs fax old wrinkles,
and with sweet-smelling flower oils
or windy days.
Doesn't that give you an idea?
One jar of good, rich cleansing
ream is enough. You can add all the
ariations yourself, and most of the
ngredients can be found in your kit -
hen. en. Keep the basic cream by itself
and add the extras to the pinch of
ream you take from the jar. For
example, the juice of tomatoes, canned
r fresh, is an excellent bleach and
stringent for an oily skin. with black-
heads. After you have washed your
ace and pressed out the larger black-
eads, put on the tomato juice. Before
this dries, pat in a little basic cream.
bit of ripe banana mashed with the

AIR AND YOUR PLANTS.
Wilting of plants in winter is
avoided by increasing the amount of
moisture in the air. It is not noes- c
sai•y to keep the plant roots in water
or to soak the Soil continuously. To 0
keep the air damp, nothing has been a
found which equals a pan of water
set on or near the stove, register, or f
radiator, says Nature Magazine. The h
water in the pan is evaporated and
distributed through the air, reducing A
c
c
the transpiration from the plants.
Spraying the leaves with water every
clear day also increases the moisture
content and acts as a general tonic!
to the plants. Watering the plants two'
or three times a day is not good peace'
tice.
For winter plants a good general, S
rule to follow is to watch the soil at: 1
the top of the pot. When it is thor-1
oughly dried out, water the plant.'
When watering, add enough to satur-
ate the entire mass of soil, Do not
just wet the top and. trust to luck
that the soil in' the bottom will get
wet enough. One can usually be i
as-
sured that the entire mass of soil is
soaked when water runs out of the!
bottom of the pot.
