A Dozen Ways in Which | A Woman Can Improve | Her Personal Appearance New Series of Articles by Doris Doscher POINT NO. 1—THE SKIN Copyright, A are the points that register 1922 (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co. BEAUTIFUL woman—just what do we mean when we say this? What for your entire approval, what have been the striking points of beauty of the women who stand out from the pages of history, remembered from generation to generation as women @f such exceptional beauty that their influence has swayed empires? From the days of Cleopatra to the present there has always been some woman whose ‘striking beauty has riveted the attention of all. finds her way to the stage or screen. charm of the beautiful face and figure. Often she Successful because of the piquant But if you analyze just what it ts that makes these women stand out as exceptional beauties, you will find that there really are twelve points in Each one of you, of course, has your own individual idea of what should be the first consideration in a beautiful woman. Personally, I con- sider the skin of foremost importance. Never mind how classical the contour of the features, you will never be charmed by a face whose skin lacks the velvety texture and transparent clearness that give you the impres- nion of the flush of a rose lying un- @erneath the skin. You are all familiar with the say- ing, ‘Beauty is only skin deep,"’ and although we know that skin beauty alone is not all that is necessary, still you cannot be beautiful if you lack a beautiful skin. If I should give you the figures of the amount of money spent by the women for cosmetics in their search for a beautiful skin, you would that beauty of skin is of first importance, I wish I could tell you of readily agree a won- @erful cosmetic that, simply applied to the skin, would give you this ben 1 texture and coloring, but eye is no such preparation nor For whatever is als ver be d from the outside must show lity and one never mistakes nterfeit for true bea tty. yes not mean that v ot kk a beautiful sk: nothing to remedy it. i ‘ encouraging part of it the beautiful skin is the one point of beauty that you can ac- complish for yourself The first essential is cleanliness without and within, A clean stomach and lungs properly cleansed at every breath. These two are the big factors in obtain- ing a clear skin. Now for the rosy tint I spoke of. It awaits on good digestion and good circulation, You can posssess both of these if you will change your diet to such plain, wholesome foods that the question of digestion will take care of itself, that there will be no need of drugs for constipation. ‘Treat your body every day of your life to a sponge bath followed by a vigorous rub down with a coarse towel over every inch of your skin, and give yourself sufficient time for a walk in the open that will clean out the lungs. Then you will {ind your skin free from blemishes. Pimples disappear as if by magic when you follow this regime. Water baths, sun baths and air baths are vie skin's luxuries, and isn’t it glorious that they cost nothing but a little exer- tion! You will see a wonderful improve- ment in your skin if you will only thoroughly ¢leanse it before retiring at night. This is the big secret of keeping the pores clean, as the face is relaxed while you slumber and you can avoid blackheads by thoroughly | cleansing the pores at night. In the morning, however, your object is to close the pores. It is perfectly mar- vellous what a tint can be given to the skin by an ico rub every morning. | This will also make the flesh firm, a decided advantage for the skin ' comes flabby as you grow older, giv ing a much older look to the face. But then you say, ‘How about wrinkles? Surely they mar a beauti- ful skin?” You really don’t need to have half of them when you learn how to regulate your living with the same efficiency that you regulate your other business affairs. Worry, that's the cruel finger that writes the lines ) of care and age upon your face; then | why worry? Persistent massage, i , done with the correct motion, Is fective in ironing out factal wrinkles There is no other royal road to hav- | {ng @ beautiful skin, Of course, you ean help along slight defects with the use of creams, massage, &c., but if you really want to be beautiful (and, figuring up the score of beauty. pray, who doesn't) you must not fall to clear the skin from the inside as well as caring for it from the outside.

By James True. Mrs, Jacob A. Riis, a Woman Successful in Wall Street. 1922 (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co. Copyrieht, IDOW of the author of ‘How the Other Half Lives" and many books on social condi- tions who, according to Theodore Roosevelt, did more for American citizenship than any man of his gen- eration, Mrs. Jacob A. Riis has aided and inspired in- numerable wom- en in business. Her career be- gan in 1916, and for the past four years she has managed the women's de- partment of one of the largest stock and bond houses in Wall Street. Now only does she instruct does she instruct a large corps of workers, kut according to her judg- ment and advice many hundred thous- ands of dollars are Invested every year. Yesterd in her office, she discussed her work in hopes of en- couraging other women who werk. “In the first place,” she said, “I had to make a living. That, undoubt- edly, is the motive of nearly all of the women in the business world. And I decided that I must do something that would show net results. “Because of my husband's work we avelled a great deal, and I met many nkers in all parts of-the country. Their talk of their business always interested me, and I learned some- thing of it by asking questions. So, when I went to work, the investment fleld attracted me more than any other, since I did not care to receive a salary from any social organization. “But during the first six months it seemed so difficult that I wanted to give it up many times, And I kept on only because my manager didn't he lieve I could succeed. He told me frequently. that my intentions were undoubtedly excellent, but that my mentality was too feminine. It took me a year to begin to make good, and it was eighteen months before the: began to pay any attention to me."' However, the success that she has since won has not detracted from th delicacy and graciousness of Mrs. Riis, Neither has it dulled her fine sense of humor. ‘Since a child,"’ she continued. “I've never been able to understand why men are able to make so much more money than women. The av age woman is more timorous, less eager to take risks, than the average map. And perhaps It is because she, being less experienced, rates her abil ity too low. “While all of the workers in our department are women, many men come to us to make investments, and we notice no difference in the attitude of our men and women customefs. Furthermore, our workers are given the same training that is given the men in other departments and the; are as successful. “A woman in business makes a mis- take in attempting to assume mascu line characteristics. As far as busi ness is concerned she should forget that she fs a woman, considering all of her associates as just people. In do- ing this she will adjust herself better to business conditions. Since the first few difficult months I have not found that being a woman Is the slightes handicap in Wall Street.’” Kitchenette Kinks The Evening World will pay $1.00 each enette Kinks Editor, Evening World, IMPROVISED ICE BOX. Y kitchenette is so small I did I bought a small galvanized tub, bored a hole in the bottom about the size of a dime, and placed this on top of a basin which just fits the bottom of the tub, In this way as the ice melts it runs freely into the basin. The tub is large enough to hold a daily supply of ice and also all my food. I placed my “ice box’’ under my work table. My ice box cost: Tub, 29 cents; basin, 15 cents; @ total of 44 cents. MRS. H. A. B. A KINK FOR THE SINK. My handy husband hung a small shelf from the legs under my porce- lain kitchen sink, and on it I keep my cleanser, bluing, soap powder and steel wool. This prevents tts un- sightly appearance along the back of the tubs which are at the right of the sink, MRS, J. H. USEFUL SUGGESTIONS.

FTEN you have a dress, or O even a suit, which !s good so far as the skirt is con- cerned and old-fashioned with re- gard to the waist. It is an aw- fully good idea, then, to cut off the waist and leave just a plain width of skirt. Then the idea is to sup- ply an entirely new top out of some contrasting material. For instance, we will say that the skirt material you have on hand is gray twill. You can have & printed silk top of colors of gray and violet and cerise—all those tints mixed up together, which make the prints, so fas- RON nn, * clous o~ cinating. You can have a white wool crepe top and uso little white Peter Pan collars and cuffs for the only decoration. You can have a gray chiffon top. You can have a dark blue silk crepe top, You can have a jade green satin top. As you see, the combinations are innumerable and there is some way that will suit your taste exactly. For the belt you just use a left-over piece of the old dress, ‘fold it into a belt an inch or an inch and a half in width and tie It around your waist at the, point that makes the best proportion for your own particular sort of figure. for accepted “Kinks.” Address Kitch- No. 63 Park Row, New York City. can, Simply take an empty can, punch a few holes in the top tor air and you have a very handy chopper for the kitchen, better than any other, I have also found that the cuffs of discarded shirts make dandy jron-holders. M. Mc, H. A WASHTUB CUPBOARD. My kitchen being unusually small it lacked closet room and I was at a loss where to put groceries, & At last I put my unsightly wash- tubs into commission and made a cretonne cover to go around both the tbs and the sink, therefor mak- ing a handy place for potatoes, onions, flour bin and many other things. I next secured two large boxes and made doors for them and, with the addition of shelves inside the boxes, my difficulties were solved. These boxes covered in white oilcloth are easy to wipe and are always clean. The covers around the tubs can be made of a washable cretonne and with the use of tape can bo removed and washed with ease. MRS, W. S. DUMB WAITER KINK. My dumb waiter shaft is buyt in the kitchenette and extends out, cupying space which could be utilized. It is near a door and therefore noth- ing can stand in front of it. My hus- band built a hinged #helf which is fastened to the wooden frame around the dumb waiter door. It 1s held up by a stick which is propped against a small block screwed into the wall and a similar block near the edge of the slielf, We painted it white to match the woodwork a@d put oilcloth on the top.

ARBARA imagined that love B would come to her some fime but not for years. She rather-sup~ posed it would como when she was well along in her art career. Then she would be willing to give wp a por- tion of her time to domestic thoughts, but she never dreamed that love cama unsought and was, in fact, fluttering in her heart at that moment whon she stood only upon the threshold of her life work. Sho could plan her work but could sho dictate as to her emotions? Sup- posing she should fall in love with Dan Dover or Bruce Wilmington? She knew they both liked her, but she was not certain just how she felt in regard to them. Now, as Dam Dover'* graceful figure rested so comfortably In her great fire-back chair and his animated voice Milled her studio with mirth and lf she wondered how it would bo to Haw, him there all the time? It would bo” just as easy to cook two lamb chops and make two cups of coffee for breakfast, and what worlds of things they could tell each other! Would companionship Inspire her in her work or was it better to be a hermit? “There's just one thing I need in my life,"* said Dan as jf interpreting her thoughts, “and that is the epn- genlal companionship of a kindred soul.
