 for the Defective Brows-Care of the

 If ones profile is not all it ought to be, one can go to work and reform it. The profile is not immovable, as many persons seem to think, but, on the con- trary, it can be decidedly influenced. One can change it so that it looks en- tirely different from the profile as it now is.
 To change the profile take the defects first and remedy them. If the teeth protrude. have them strengthened. Strengthening the teeth is not at all difficult these days. There come cer- tain appliances which can be fixed upon the teeth in such a manner as to bring them into line with the rest of the mouth. Instead of an irregular, teeth that are perfectly arched.
 The next thing to do in reforming the profile is to straighten the nose. If the nose is crooked in the bridge, and there e1AC 44tcl1Ag PCOplO WILL lIOSS6f have it straightened. The nose is built upon a soft cartilage or muscle, which is easily shaped with the fingers. The operation of strengthening the nose is not at all difficult one. By all means have it attended to at once.
 If the nostrils are distended, giving the nose an ugly, wide appearance, have them treated. Distended nostrils are caused by defect in the breathing apparatus. Asthma and cold in the head, and all the kindred ills. will have the effect of distending the nostris. Get the breathing apparatus in good work ing order and the nose will be one hun dred per cent prettier.
 Sharp eyebrows never make pretty profile. Get small bottle of pure al- mond oil and put it in dish of hot wa ter. Let the water remain hot and add a teaspoonful of red vaseline to an ounce of the oil. Stir while 1t cools and the result is a very soft pomade which is just the thing to use as an eyebrow grower.
 Take small camel's hair brush and go over the eyebrows every night. Outline the brows just exactly as they are desired to be. Next morning wash the face with hot water. Do this every night and the reward will be abundant and pretty eyebrows.
 Many people have ugly profiles be- cause they have ugly eyes The eyes are blinky and waters and it is impos- sible to open them wide. They must be treated until they are clear and pretty.
 To treat the eyes successfully take a bowl of warm water-say a pint of wa- ter-and dissolve into a teaspoonful of powdered borax. Set the bowl where lit will keep hot, and then bathe the eyes with the solution Use it every night before going to bed.
 The beauty of to-day, or the homely woman of to-day, could not put in an hour better than at bed time. If she will take a full hour for the prepara- tion Of her face for the night she will be rewarded by greater measure of beauty than she has ever before pos- sessed.
 The wrinkles between the eyes-and all women of thirty have this wrinkle must be massaged away. Then, too, all the little querulous lines in theifore- head must be brushed away with the finger tips. Besides this, the chin must be nicely managed to keep away the crows feet from around the mouth. Steaming the face is a process best done at night. Wet the face with very | hot water and let the skin become smoking hot, but not so hot as to blis- ter it. Don't allow the steam to play directly upon the skin, but rather ap- ply hot cloths until the skin is warm through. It takes little practice to know just how hot the water should be.
 Now is the time to wash the face well with soap and water. Only the very best of soap should be used and for this purpose the highly advertised brands are generally best. Shaving soap is pretty sure to be pure, and many women use 1t in preference. wash the face thoroughly and rinse well. Rinsing is very important. Fi- lnally apply a little cold cream to the face. rubbing 1t well into the skin. Next morning wash 1t off
 This course of advise, if carefully fol- lowed, will certainly bring about it's own reward in an increased degree of beauty.
 And particularly will it benefit the
