Phone: Mayfair 3212. / Tfiere is a great truth hidden in the old proverb about Beauty beingskin deep. The first thing I look at in other women is their skin. We all know that complexions can be carried about in bottles, but not all the cosmetics in the world can give to the face that fair freshness and glow that comes from perfect health. Myself, I am very careful about my skin. I have to be because mine is very sensitive. I feel changes of temperature keenly, and I have to be constantly on my guard against it. My stage make-up, which takes almost as long to get off as to put on, has a good skin food as its foundation.

More often than not the sufferer has been indulging too freely in sweets and cakes between meals and not enough fruit, salads and fresh vegetables. So much for the face. Now, as this is a winter time article. I .had better devote a little space to the skin of the neck and back. The evening frocks worn this season show an almost complete absence of back. If you do not happen to possess a pretty one you can easily improve yours. ' I 'he first thing to do is to learn ta sleep without a bolster. Use only one pillow and that a very low one. This prevents a double chin, besides correcting the tendency to roll up in a ball to which so many girls are addicted. Then, every morning you must devote at least five minutes to this exercise. Stand about a dozen inches away from a tall cupboard or door. Place your hands flat against it, on a level with
