This & tedious and complicated proc- | { only to be used in extreme cases of dry, neglocted skin or wrinkles. Chin strapping is a simplificatio of this process. You will need sev- eral yards of old linen or musiin | strips, two to three inches wide, and a Jar of cold cream whose virtues you can trust. If you wish, you can buy rolls of gauze bandages, but I think this is an unnecessary expense. Your strips of old material will do just as well and can be laundered agaln and again. The face, and particularly cheeks | and chin, are washed with hot water, | soap and n complesion brush, then rinsed in hot water. While tha skin {is moist and very warm a generous 'amount of flesh bullding cream is {rubbed in thoroughly with the fin- | gers. The motion under the chin is {a circular one, working back from |the tip of the chin to the throat, i then upwards, raising the muscles at | the corner of the mouth and passing | | across the cheeks to the ears.

RACIAL ORIGIN—English, also Ger- man. SBOURCE—A locality. These family names belong in the general olassification of place names, and really represent two ctages of development. That is to say, they had in most cases become well estab- lished names of places rather than mere descriptions of places, long be- foro they became family names as well. Their growth as place names lg quite easy to trace and took place, it 1s probable, in the Anglo-Saxon period. Ravenwood simply meant a wood noted for the number of ravens | which congregated there. is a variation, the last ing from an old Anglo-Saxo indicating a clearing, a plac which trecs had been rem a “ravenroyd” would be in a wood where ravens gat sufficlent numbers to mak worthy. The name of Rabenhorst is the literal German parallel for Raven- wood. Such place names us these are by no means unique, nor confined to any one countr; ‘They are not uncom- mon today, and in the middle ages, when the Iimited scope of communi- cation and travel made the danger of confusion much less, they were no doubt much more common than to- day. It was natural that a few per- sons at least living in such localfties should find these names applied to them, at first as explanatory of their places of abode and later as personal namee.
