Figure to yourself, says the London
World, what it must feel like to take
your beauty-sleep with apair of pincers
on your nose! That pretty old-fashioned
expression has now taken new and
dreadful meaning. Any one who desires
to possess the Mrs. Langtry nose'' has
but to sleep in torment for week or
two, and the great result is obtained.
If the figure Of the would-be beauty is
not as lovely as she wishes, the ..ana-
tomical corset-maker' will supply her
with a nocturnal squeezing apparatus
which will .'tine her down. bv degrees.
If her statute is too low for beauty, she
may remedy this by wearing what is
mildly called an ''appliance;' in the
days of the Inquisition it would proba-
bly, have been classed as an instrument
of torture. This appliance squeezes and
stretches all the lower part of the body,
and its use is said not to interfere with
the comfort of ones beauty-slecp!
