There are many ways Of getting angry.
Each kind Of woman has her way Of losing
her temper, and each has her own way
Of announcing the fact
One woman does 1t with her face, another
with her tongue, another with her actions.
But in every case there u sure to be an

woman takes course Of treatment TO drive

The treatment, while partly physical.
10 more mental than external, and 1t must
be found In the frame Of mind, In the spirit,
in the poise and in the general attitude
toward the world and things in general.
There IL the woman with what Is known
as the hasty temper. She 10 usually q
woman Of many nerves and her organiza-
ton is very sensitive and highly strung.
There Is little doubt Of that.
This sort Of woman usually has . great
many fine wrinkles on the face, caused
by the quick contortions which her coun-
tenace undergoes In day. She gets angry.

Then there comes the woman who Is
In q chronic state Of anger. She h gen.
orally Q worrying woman, and she worries
about fate about the weather; her neighbors
are q source OF worry, and at least once
day she has bitter grievance against some
one.
This woman has deep lines along her
forehead and burrows between the eyes.
They are worry wrinkles. but wrinkles
OF the temper as well.
This sort Of woman has q great deal
to learn before abe can become calm, for
abe has agitated hersef up to q frame
Of mind when abe h not happy unless she
is worrying, and her face and figure bear
marks Of detection. The lines, the bent
shoulders, the slow walk, all tell that there
n something seriously amiss with the
woman and with the world.
Then. In the list OF women who have
no control over their tempers. comes
the woman who signs continuously. She
has the signing habit. and she signs audibly
all the time.
This woman. though apparently sorrow.

lines In her forehead run In curves and one
eyebrow IL higher than the other Her
facial deformity is characteristic.
Long years ago the woman with the
signing habit was q woman OF bad temper.
She rallied at fate and secretly cursed her
stars. But time softened her spirit little.

rail.
Now, when she loses her temper, she
sulks. and there is nothing that anybody
can do for her. She will sigh and sigh until
the end Of the chapter, and her beauty
Is spoiled by the habit.
Besides these classes there II the roman

It is a serious matter with her. She takes
plenty Of time to think about It. but when
she does lose her temper Is Ia lost forever.
You cannot very well make it up with
her.
She 10 usually . woman OF tranquil
temperament, and she will 60 through
life without a mark upon her face. Only
there will be an ugly curve around the
mouth, 10 show that she has been angry
two OF three times in her life. and has not
got completely over IL yet For her the
nerve cure Is Of little use, for her anger

II IL said that women lose their temper
more quickly and more Oft en- than men.
II In q fact that women show the permanent
marks OF their III temper more than do
men.
One reason for this 10 10 be found In the
oonventionalites Of life. Convent ionality

In her emotions than In her other forms Of
