Ever since the first breath of
spring has been in the air, I have
been receiving letters asking how \o
have a clear smooth skin for spring
and snmmer. What few of >ou seem
starts from within. Yoh must get
yourselves in good physical condition
if you hope to glow with youth
and beauty and springtime freshness.
Get More Sleep and Exercise
The first step in getting ready for
"spring and summer is to work out
a balanced routine of sleep, exercise
and diet. If you have been
turning "the candle at both ends,"
you are probably paying for it pow
with dull, lusterless eyes and sallow
skin. Remember that eight hours'
sleep every night is more effective
thnn nny lummy mmiin^ A-mt-H*you
have difficulty getting to sleep
early, the solution is right at hand.
You probably need more outdoor
exercise that will leave you pleasantly
relaxed and healthfully tired
at the end of the day, A brisk walk,
say to and from work, or, if you are
a lady of leisure, the early part of
these sunny afternoons, Is one of
the best forms of exercise for all
around reconditioning. Don't feel,
however, that you can give up your
special indoor exercises. Select the
ones that do vou the -most cood
according to your individual requirements
and stick to them.
Eat Fresh Fruits and Vegetables
And watch your diet. Throughout
the winter you have doubtless
been eating, more tlran your quota
of heavy starch foods.' Now that
spring is here, there is an abundance
of fresh fruits and vegetables
on the market Why not try eating
a spring salad for lunch instead
of sandwiches or meat and pota. .

After you huVe taken euro of
these fundamental rules, start on
your skin. As 1 have told you so
ofteu before, it is important that
you cleanse your face at lo.-t&t twice
a day, either with soap and warm
water, or a pood cream, depending
on thevt!exture of your skin. A pood
skin tonie which has an astringent
effect Is a preat lieln in toning up
the skin after cleansing. If your
skin is inclined to he dry, a rich
night cream is a boon- in helping
smooth and soothe and in discouraging
tiny lines and wrinkles.
