Appearance

Appearance.

It is a rueful moment when you notice that your hair is undeniably turning gray. Of course, we all know that grayness is ageing, but it takes a “back seat” when the person has the spick-and-span look. Untidiness is doubly disagreeable when your hair proclaims that you are old enough to know better. If everything about you suggests freshness, you have a permanent kind of attraction.

Skin, coiffure and measurements must stand on their own merits. Don't let your skin get that dreary, uncared-for look. The three things necessary for it are: cleansing, stimulating and lubricating. Also make room in your diet for more vitamins, and indulge in moderate outdoor exercise.

Coiffure.—Keep up your interest in your hair, and try all the latest methods, finding out which will perk up your appearance.

Measurements.—Discipline your appetite, and exercise to outwit the middle-age symptoms.
