Silvikrin

... Does your hair pass the 'CLOSE-UP' test? Remember, your mirror is not as critical as the eyes which see a 'close-up' of your hair when you least suspect it. So many a head that should be lovely is spoiled by flecks of tell-tale dandruff and betrayed by falling hair. Those are the heads which need -- the natural hair food which cleanses and tones up the scalp and makes dull hair glow with ...

Flowers In The Spring

... FI owers In The Spring MOST of us envy the ability with which some women seem to be gifted, of making a modest bunch of flowers into an eye-catching decoration. The secret of beautiful flower arrangements depends as much upon having the right equipment as upon artistic talent. Attrac tive compositions depend mainly upon the mingling of colours and an adequate variety of containers upon which ...

God Save the Queen

... WHEN Lytton Strachey squared up to Victoria we wondered if she might not need saving from her biographers, but she proved to be one Eminent Victorian who conquered even him.
