"rhe bravery and noble endurance that

the finest things 1 know. And yet she
does not realize it. She is a fresh colored,

But putting that aside, only think of
one woman doing all thisl She works her
eight hours a day at house cleaning, she
cooks for her family and provides for their
meals during the day, she takes in sew

A great many OF the students of causes
says the New York Sun, and effects, as
applied 90 the human species, ask from
time to time the reason for the perpetual
youthfulness of the women of the stage,
whose faces are constantly being pic
tured in the omnipresent half-tone publ
cations of the day. each time seemingly
more attractive and young than before.
Many learned reasons are given by those
who say they know. Some say that the
keeping-up-t o-date of the life profession
al is in itself tonic. Others say that
the portrayal of stage emotion leaves the
face unseared by abe lines of real care.
But the women of the stage are no more
youthful of face than many of the best
known women of society The true Sc
cret of the continued youthfulness of the
modern woman is that she has discovered
the virtues of face massage, now ac-
knowledged as one of the only healthful
natural methods of preserving the fine
texture OF the skin and the contour of
the fact and now part of the toilet of ev-
cry woman whose means affords the lux
ury. The daily manicuring and hairdressing
are now augmented by the half hour or
more of careful rubbing Of the face with
educated fingers.
For thin faces the movement of the
masseur's fingers are gentle tappings and
SLABS calculated to harden the muscles
and develop the cheeks to becoming
plumpness. For faces inclined 10 stout
ness the rubbing is harder, the extra
adipose being fairly melted away in the
process. Every lady's maid must under
stand this new act nowadays in its diff
ferent branches. The Swedish system is
the general one in use for the face, while
for the body, especially in cases of rheu-
matism or for reducing, the Japanese
svstem has many adherents. One of the
most popular massage operators in town
is a Japanese of American education. His
clientele is in the fashionable uptown dis
tricts.
