for January 1930 75 'e?KIN GAME'! Every Girl May Have the Beauty That Comes from Good Grooming, says Screenland's Exponent of Popularity and Charm admire are the ones who are most careful about right living. Take the movie stars, for example. Probably in no other quarter of the globe are so many exquisite girls and so many beautiful mature women to be found as in Hollywood.

In the effort to rid itself of instructing secretions the system forces into the ducts of the skin matter that clogs the pores, yellows the complexion and dulls the luster of the eyes. Usually, every blemish on your skin is poison which your body is trying to get rid of. There is but one cure for faulty elimination, and that is to get at the cause. Nine cases out of ten, that cause is lack of bulk in foods. There has been much furor about diet the past few years.
