How much younger and fresher the wayworn traveller or the outdoor laborer
looks after a thorough washing of the face and hands only. Many who
complain of "bird's claws" and wrinkles might murmur less if they made a
thorough use of warm water and "old brown windsor soap," or better, the
true castile soap. Nearly all the soap sold at groceries for castile is
spurious. A good druggist will have the desired article, and for rough,
chapped skin nothing is better, not even glycerine.
Then wash out the furrows of fine dirt that gather in the _little_
wrinkles, and it will surprise some folks to see how, thereby, they have
reduced the size of their wrinkles. It is like cleansing an old coat!
