Whatever treatment you give vour face, finish it off with an ice rub whenever possible You may think that exposure to al- most ice cold air has the same effect, | but it is not so.; There i something extremely valuable in the direct con- tact of the coldness and wetness of the ice on the skin which any ameunt | of outdoor exposure in freezing tem- perature will mot give you. If you use ijce without an oily Jo-| tion on the skin first it may become | ehapped.

The shorter fur coat has come in for a good deal more indorsement in France than it has in this country. Save as a distinctly sports type of garment the short fur coat is seldom seen here at present. 1 have seen some of the new things for Spring—and among them 1 have seen quite a few threequarter and seven-eighths length coats.
