CARE OF THE NOSE.

Tills Feature Need* Special Attention and Dally Treatment. In massaging the face the nose needs special attention. It must be kept free from blackheads, and the nostrils must not be allowed to become too wide. Use the rotary massage movement daily about the lower part of the nose after first applying cold cream. This will tend to reduce the thick cartilage. Never use a downward movement In massaging the nose. Always rub up. To make a red nose white massage vigorously along the leading nerve of the nose at each side. Use the tip of the finger, start at the bottom and rub np the nose on either side and then under the eyebrows. Following the nerve in this way is sure to relieve congested circulation, which is often the secret of that unpleasant redness which comes to the nose. If the nose Is extremely red, in addition to treating the nerve massage the temples and cheeks, using & brisk, vigorous movement, This we do in order to take the blood away from the nose. In treating the nose be careful never to touch It with water. Instead bathe It night and morning with cold cream.
