(LIFE: Never rub the dirt of ith a dry handkerchief. Never rub the dirt in— Always wash it off __ As the winter season approaches, the air is often he: ve with smoke and soot which the pores of the skin are constantly breathing in. These conditions, which must be endured, soon ruin any skin unless precautions are taken to Intelli- gently counteract their effect. Never rub this dirt off with your dry | handkerchief. If it were not for the oil n your skin, which protects it, you soon | would ruin the texture of your skin by the irritation of rubbing the soot and dirt ov it. Instead of this way, which throws an unnecessary burden on the skin and tends to overtax it, use this treatment. | i hot wash cloth, Iathered with Woodbury’s Facial Soap, for several minutes, Then, when the pores are thoroughly open, rub in | a fresh lather of Woodbury’s Facial Soap. ‘It dis- | solves the dirt, makee it almost melt away witho the slightest irritation. Then close the pores and arouse the circulation in your skin by a cold water rinse. Use Woodbury’s regularly. It costs ase a cake. No one hesitates at the price after first cake.

You surely are not satisfied through sedentary habits to grow a little weaker and less val- uable every da Tamspeaking gen- erally, — because | know that nine out of ten men whowork indoors have surface muscles that are as ‘soft as dough and stomach and. intes | tine muscles that are |growing weaker every day. With even half-proper treatment the vital muscles can be made strong cnough toimprove the health, appear. ance, temperament, ability of any man, Big biceps and surface muscles no more indicate health than brick walls prove that a building is fi proof. The true test is whether or not the d work fags you, whether your slecp refreshes you, and | whether your’ body will obey the desires of ‘your mind—in other words, can you do the things you would like to do—can’ you set your body to work hout waste of will-cnergy? iThe Thompson Course isa scries of simple, natural movements, which give | greater strength, vitality and energy to the most im- rtant muscles of the body—those of the stomach, lungs, heart, and other vital organs. ‘The Thompson Course is designed to set the nerves, muscles and brain working in harmony. When thes ‘three forces are co-ordinated, laziness, nervousness, | ill-temper and inability toconcentrate impossible, | The Thompson Course requires no apparatus, does not force you to leave off any of your regular habits —and takes but a few minutes of your daily time. Railroad presidents, and other men whose time is | probably worth more .than cither mine or yours have given their time to my Course and have 7 | poned their retirement many years on account of | besides greatly increasing their present efficiency Unless you are so well satisfied with your physical and mental condition as to believe yourself incapable of improvement, you will profit by reading my book, “Human Energy,” which tells all about The Thomp- son Course.
