An Orange a Day

An Orange a Day.

An inactive liver is often responsible for a sallow skin. An orange eaten first thing in the morning, followed by a glass of hot water sipped slowly is good for both liver and complexion.

A good steaming with hot wet towels followed by a brisk patting all over with the tips of the fingers is a splendid thing for the skin. The skin around and behind the ears and around the nose should be briskly rubbed and the cheek bones sharply patted in a circular movement. Don't neglect these facial exercises if you desire to avoid wrinkles and a dry looking skin.

Don't allow the muscles of your body to become flabby. Exercise them, for firm muscles greatly add to the appearance of youth. Women who from long years of inactivity have allowed themselves to grow stout and out of shape, will regain the grace and slenderness of youth if they will take plenty of exercise, give up the lounging habit, and cultivate an erect carriage of body.
