Diet and Beauty.
Women who want to be beautiful must pay attention to their diet. Buckets of lotions, pounds of creams and skin foods, boxes of flesh brushes, complexion rollers, soaps—nothing, not one of these, can produce the slightest effect in helping to give the right color and glow to the complexion that has been spoiled by improper food, says Woman's Life.
When pimples make their appearance on girls' faces many a mother will even run to give blood tonics and such, while still allowing their daughters to devour fresh pork chops, veal cutlets, but never a bit of fruit or fresh greens, "because they don't like anything of that kind, but prefer good, substantial, hearty food."
