It has the great advantage that it doqs not injure the skin, but yen ers it soft like a puild’s. Take a soft cloth or sponge and bftthe the face, neck and arms thoroughly with buttermilk before retiring for the night; then wipe off drops ligntly. In the morning wash it thoro ghly and wipe dry with a crash towel. Two or three such baths will take off all the tan and freckles. It will keep the hands soft and smooth.
