Once anything of importance Is the mat
ter with you, do not try to cure Yourself
If you wish to keep beautiful. Start off
to the hest doctor you know and pay him
a good fee to make you well, Not to
just cure the ailment, hut to 6ud what
caused it, and to force that to disappear.
Foolish women, once in while, an
nounce that TO keep beautiful u woman
should plunge into cold bath. Now, to
the average American woman, cold bath
is terrible shock, and shock is followed
by nervousness, and nervousness means
loss Of beauty. The best bath is a tepid
one. This should he taken In the morn
ing, and if II is followed by n good rub
bling, one can 60 out. even in tile coolest
weather. without fear of catching cold.
An occasional extremely hot bath should |
be taken Mt night. This Is purely cleans
ing bath. since il forces theSskin to open |
its pores and throw out every particle of |
dust that they have managed to accuinu- |
late, and to which they hold with tight |
ness that is wonderful. While | am
preaching, l might just as well tell what |
is an absolute truth. One-half the women
are not as particular about their linen
as they should be. They wear clothes
that look clean. but that are really not
pure from the standpoint of good health.
BE as extravagant AS You like with three
people and you will be beautiful. These
are your laundress, your cook. and your
doctor. Then give great deal of thought
TO the way your table appears, because
you must tempt your own appetite.
A good story, translated from the
French, is going the rounds Of the Eng
lish press, but il may not have reached
You vet 1t is this: Baudelaire remarked
to u friend: Il have just seen an adorable
woman. She has the most beautiful eye
brows in the world-which she draws with
the point of crayon: the most beautiful
eyes-produced by cosmetic-laden lashes;
the most perfect mouth-fashioned out of
carmine, and, in addition, not a hair that
she can not call her own"
The friend answered.: "She must be a
monster
NO" said Baudclaire, ''she is a great
artist" | do not tell this story to en-
courage girls to use cosmetics, but tell 1t
to encourage my listeners, who happen TO
be Aunt Maria, Nanny and the girl from
next door, to use everything that is right
to make them look more beautiful Men
should be handsome in the sense of being
well made, well knit together and strong.
Women should be beautiful. not necessar-
lily through having perfect features, but
with white skins, with soft. expressive
eyes, with tender hands, with beautiful
hair, beautiful in its gloss, in its quantity,
in its color and in its arrangement, and
then they should move around in the
quiet way so essential in Il woman and
speak in u soft, low voice that woman
must cultivate before she can even be
pretty. A woman who talks through her
nose, who speaks loudly, who uses bad
grammar is not "A beautiful woman. A
woman who trOts. woman who gallops,
woman who strides is not only not a
beautiful woman, hut she makes one won
der whether She is woman at all. 1t is as
easy to learn to walk well as il is to speak
well, to laugh well and to be happy.
Being happy is necessity if one wishes
to be beautiful, and being happy really
; means being hopeful. 1t means forgetting
the sorrow of to-day and looking forward
! to the happiness of tomorrow. 1t means
forgetting the worries of life and think
ing of its joys. II is so easy to be happ,
! II one will only make up ones mind to it
: FIND pleasure In everything, and If yol
i can laugh merrily at everything thn
comes into your life. and laugh properly
