REMOVING DUST FROM FACE

Much Care Is Necessary If One Would Keep the Complexion at Its Best. Town dust is insidious. A wash cloth and warm water at best removes but little of it. If you really wish to see how much dust, the face can take up in a shopping trip take a damp wash cloth when you arrive home and dip it in your cold cream Jar. Then scrub the face and neck. The result is rather depressing. The wash cloth is so black that one is horror-struck to think that so much dust has been carried on the face even for a short while. The face should then be sponged off with cold water to tighten the pores, which have been opened by the warm water, and dusted with powder that has been chosen to match the color of the skin as nearly as possible. This powder should be wiped off till not a bit of it shows, for nothing is more disagreeable than smears of it on the face.
