EYES SpEAk

Volumes, at times, of woman's happi-
ness or misery. The dull, sunken eye,
with its dark circles almost surely speaks
of won1anly ill-health, and its attendant
suffering. With the dull eye goes usr-
ally the sallow, sunken cheek, the drawn
mouth, the shrunken form-the whole
glory of woman's beauty narred by the
effects Of disease.
