WINNING IN BEAUTY RACE
The pretty girl must learn animation
The sad-eyed girl will not win In beauty's
race. nor the girl who Is absent-minded
The girl who only half listens to you;
the girl who interrupts you with irrelevant
exclafnadons; the girl who lacks ANNA
tion. wit or v~ivacity-none of these girls
will win In the race for beauty!
OF course. the sharp-tongued girl will
never do. She is the exception to all
rules; she Is the girl who is asolutely
barred out Of h race: the woman who.
above n beyond all others, cannot com.
pete in the race which all women run with
time n beauty.
The woman who Is to be called beautiful,
the pretty woman, must be well groomed.
When the first hush Of youth q girl may
get along without grooming.
She may be able to draw her hair over
back n can be neglected. of her best
points But the age at which she can do
this passes away at IS After a woman
has reached Is she must take care Of her
own.
The pretty woman will have 4 clear COM
plexion. be II an olive or q ~peachblow.
She must possess q nice pair of lips, which
are curved properly.
She must have delicate nostrils. not nee
essarily Grecian. hut At least refined.
And she must own a pair Of eyes that
are always at their best.
Eyes that are at their best will be
arched with brows that curve prettily;
eyer that are at their best will not be i'm
bedded in fat; eyes that are at their best
will not be surrounded with red lines, but
will be clear and pretty. Eyes that are
At their best will be bright.
These few points can be controlled, and
every woman can have eyes that shine,
that are Of fair size. arched with nice
brows INC hat are not red. weeping eyes.
SHAPING THE FACE.
There Is \ way now OF molding the nose.
The nose, which Is made of . soft rub
stance, can readily b nodded with the
fingers. Indeed. when a nose - broken Il
Is set by a gentle ~kneading. and, by the
same process. a nose can be shaped.
The woman with a spreading nose
should not neglect to massage It daily. and
always with a down motion.
There Is q way Of doing this. and Of
pinchinG the nostriis at the same time,
that is most beneficial to the shape.
The eyebrows are shaped. not by the
tweezers alone nor by clipping, for the
latter is nearly always injurious. but by
brushing them in the right manner.
II a woman will take a little warm olive
oil and will dip a brush into 1t and will
paint her eyebrows every night she will
find that they grow IN a shapely manner
and are glossy beyond anything ever seen
before.
They will have a very attractive luster,
and the woman who treats them in this
way will find that the result well repays
her for the trouble.
The shaping of the forehead, and the
filing in of the forehead lines. is a thing
that no woman should neglect.
The forehead should be made an oval,
and This can be done by treating the bor-
der of the forehead properly.
The brow should he massaged and treat
ed and shaped and cared for until 1t Is
clear and pretty.
There are points along the boundaries
Of the forehead. Just over the temples,
where a woman first begins to get bald.
Those marks. which are called expert

quickly.
The hair recedes. the forehead becomes
higher. the temples grow bald and there
is an ancient look that is far from being
pretty.
A good masseuse will rub olive oil into
these semibare places and will keep on
applying it. a drop or two every night,
until she gets the hair growing nicely.
This will take some time. but. unless It

The hair will begin to grow again on
the temples. and the forehead will be
filled in.
Filling in the forehead Is important, for
the woman whose forehead II a great deal
too high. Unless the case be a really
terrible one tine forehead a be treated
and the hair coaxed to grow.
CARE OF THE EYD6.
The treatment of the eyes Is a simple
matter. depending almost wholly upon the
Judgment of the one who is doing the
work. Eyes that are too small can almost
always be slightly enlarged by reducing
the flesh upon the face.
Ewes that ore surrounded by cushions
of fat will gradually disappear until they
are little more a twinkling stars.
Reduce the flesh upon the face and the
eyes will begin to come forth in their
proper size.
The fat woman who allows the fat to
encroach upon her cheeks in such a way
as to bury her eyes in depths of fieshy
folds will soon regret her flesh. for each
ounce of flesh upon her cheeks means an
added death kneIl to her beauty.
The eyes can be frightened. but not by
putting drugs into them.
II they are kept in good condition, free
from strain. and If the lids are properly
treated. the eyes will shine.
Very many pretty women are in the
habit Of bathing the eyes daily in a weak
solution Of boracic acid. And, when buy
ing the borax for THIS purpose it is a good
thing to conftde in the druggist and tell
him how you are going to use II.
There are many admonitions for the
eyes. Do not rock when you read. for this
