something for our Lady Renders.

The use of toilet preparations, in the
form of powder, paint, lotions, and other
dclcteriOus componds, is becoming fear
fully common, especially among young
girls who have no sort of excuse Tor such
an act Of folly. These artificial aids to
vanity and display were formerly sup
posed to be confined To the dcvotees of
fashion and dissipation in our large cit
les, and especially invented for women
who having passed theagewhen freshness
of youth could charm and attract, strove
the admiration which had become nee
csssry Ia their existence. Now, how
ever, the race of young fresh complex
toned girls is almost extinct. Instead Of
daily renewing ana preserving their
beauty bY early rising ana assisting
ma in getting breakfast, or by other
active exercises. plentiful abiutions, tent
perance in eating, drinking cold water,
and wearing thick shoes ana clothing
that covers the neck and shoulders, they
RAPIDLY lose their youth in late hours,
eating pastry, drinking strong coffee,
half washing in warm water, wearing
paper soled shoes and low necked dresses,
and finally destroying what little Is
left of freshness and bloom by the appli-
cation of insidious poisons that dry up
the remaining and vital powers of the
skin, and if they do not communicate
disease, prevent the natural action of
throwing Off and superfuous mnt-
ters through the pores.
Young girls do not look at this matter
seriously at all; they think it their own
affair, with which no one else has any
business. But this is not so; their tu-
ture husbands have an interest in it. 1t
is nothing less than a swindle, for girl
10 become wife, and have her appar-
entity youthful face to become prema-
tureiy old, yellow and wrinkled under
the coat of red and white; and what a
revelation for young husband, OF
hypocrisy, deceit and female art From
that moment the sacredness of his con-
tidence and trust are gone; his young
pure wife, whom he thought angelic, is
y thing of shreds and patches, and he
signs and thinks what a delusion is
woman, and makes UP his mind to his
fate.
We have said nothing Of the newt
able effect upon the mind and morals,
upon womanly honesty, sincerity and
truthfulncss; but it is hard to believe
| that q crystal ciearness and purity OF
soul. such as young girls ought to pos
| sass. could find home in 2 trea"hcro"s,
disguised and painted female form.
