Heels Over Headin Beauty

You CanDoThis Trickat Home

By ELEANOR NANGLE

ABEAUTY treatment thatoriginated in New Yorkv e r y nearly has the

women of that town literallystanding on their heads. It'sa beauty routine, to be followedeither in the swanky New Yorksalon or in your own not soswanky boudoir, that arousesbeautifying circulation in theface, neck, and head regionsnaturally. Yougo to your room,rest wit h your feet twelveinches higher than your head,and then let the combination ofthe proper creams and theproper position do its best.And its best is really some-thing!It's just one of the eternal

verities that active circulationis the first requisite to a goodcomplexion and firm, youthfulcontour. The law of gravity isno friend to hair or face beau-ty. In the new beauty treat-ment the law of gravity is putto work, but in the right way.By placing the head lower thanthe feet for occasional treat-ments, gravity is used to sendfresh reserves of blood downto the facial area. When youtilt the body the flow of bloodto the head is quickened, theskin of face and scalp nour-ished by the increased circula-tion. There's even good author-ity for the claim that yourbrain functions a bit better inthis position. Makes you notonly more beautiful but lessdumb! • • •In the salon where t his

treatment was introduced aspecially built chair was con-structed to tilt the clients' toesskyward for the beauty treat-ment. It's like an inclined,softly padded cot with specialshoulder attachments t hatkeep you from sliding to thefloor. It's fun for the client,who instantly feels relaxed andfresh, but a little hard on theoperator, who must kneel whileshe creams and massages.But the treatment can be

given at home, and we serious-ly suggest that you try it.Choose an evening when youwant to be picked up mentallyand physically; when you'redog tired and more in the moodfor hot milk and sleep thancocktails and dinner conversa·tion at which you're expectedto sparkle.The preparations you need

are few-and they've been spe-cially, inexpensively boxed foryou by the house that institutedthis revolutionary beauty treat-ment. You cleanse first, justas you usually do. If the skinis dry, use the richer of the twocleansing creams offered you.If it's oily, stick to the straightliquefying cream. They're bothgood grime chasers, but the

HARVESTHOME pudding,with its rich cake rounda-tion and fruity potpourri,

is an autumn dessert withoutpeer. It may be baked in indi-vidual molds, as shown here, orin a large pan, to be cut intoservings at the table. Whippedcream, a fruit sauce, or bothmay be served with it.There are two parts to the

pudding, batter and fruit. Tomake the batter, cream 14 cupbutter, add ~ cup sugar, andblend. Add 1 egg and beat themixture well. Sift 2 cups fiourseveral times with 2 teaspoonsbaking powder and add to butterand sugar mixture alternatelywith * cup milk. Add 1 tea-spoon vanilla and beat the bat-ter until smooth.To make the potpourri, corn-

bine 1 cup diced dates or raisins,~ cup cooked berries, cherries,or other small fruit, 1 cup dicedcanned pears, and 1 cup pearjuice. Bring to a boil and pour

into a greased baking dish orinto individual dishes. Pour thebatter over the fruit and bakefor 40 minutes at 350 degrees.Turn out on a hot platter andserve with fruit juice sauce,whipped cream, or both.The other autumn treat pic-

tured here is a toasty loaf madefrom bread and old Englishcheese spread. To make it, re-move all crusts but the bottomone from a loaf of white breadand cut the loaf into inch-and-a-half slices down to the bottomcrust. Then cut through thecenter of the loaf lengthwise tothe crust. Blend ~ cup butterand ~ pound cheese spread andspread between the slices andall over the outside of the loaf.Press the slices together and tiethem to form a complete loafagain. Place in a 400-degreeoven until the cheese is meltedand the bread is crisp all overthe outside. This is really de-licious.

area a break with a specialneck cream you'll find in thelittle box. It's chock-full of goodoils designed to combat crept-ness. You work it in with bothhands, smoothing from theupper chest right up to thechin, the hands circling theneck, upward along the throatcolumn. In a manner of speak-ing you wring your own neck,but ever so gently!Now you're all creamed up.

It's taken much less time thanit takes to tell, too, in casewe're scaring you off withthe s e detailed instructions.You can do it in a couple ofwinks, really. Next thing todo is to turn your key in thebedroom door so you won'tstartle any invaders and as-sume what is now known asthe "beauty angle position."Lie down on your trundle bed,with some fat pillows beneathyour hips and with your feet onthe footboard. If your bedlacks a footboard, grab a die-t ion a r y, all the telephone
