SOME women treat their faces

complexions from its withering heat,
and wear face masks at night. Yet

They sooner show the signs of agng.
The first sign of advancing age In
the hands Is noticeable In the loss
of the firmness of the flesh and the
smoothness of the skin. These signs
accompany each other, for the chief
cause of wrinkles Is the shrinking
away of tho muscles from heneath

The nails reveal the Inroads of the
