HOW TO IMPROVE
ONES PROFILE.

II ones profile Is not all II ought to
be, one can go to work and reform It,
The profile is not immovable, as many
persons seem to think, hut, on the con-
trary, it can be decidedly influenced.
One can change 1t so that 1t looks en-
tirely different from the profile as 1t
now is.
To change the profile, says the Brook
lyn Eagle, take the defects first and
remedy them. If the teeth protrude,
have them Strengthened. Straighten-
ing the teeth is not at all difficult these
days. There come certain appliances
which can be fixed upon the teeth in
such a manner as to bring them into
line with the rest of the mouth. In
stead of an Irregular, struggling row
of teeth, one can have 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 are many people with crook
ed noses, have it Strengthened. The
nose is built upon soft cartilage or
muscle, which is easily shaped with
the fingers. The operation of straight
ening the nose Is not at all difficult
one. By all means have it attended
to at once.
If the nostriis are distended, giving
the nose an ugly wide appearance.
have them treated. Distended nostriIs
are caused by a defect in the breath
ing apparatus. Asthma and a cold in
the head, and all the kindred ills, will
have the effect of distending the nos
trils. Get the breathing apparatus in
good working order and the nose will
be 100 per cent. prettier.
Sharp eyebrows never make a pref
ty profile. Get a small bottle of pure
almond oil and put 1t in dish of hot
water. Let the water remain hot and
add a teaspoon of red vaseline to an
ounce OF the oil. Stir while il cools
and the result is a very soft pomade
which is just the thing to use as ali
eyebrow grower.
Take a 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 watery and II is I'm
possible to open them wide. They
must be treated until they are clear
and pretty.
To treat the eyes successfully take q
bowl Of warm water-say a pint Of
water-and dissolve into It q teaspoon
full of powdered borax. SGT the bowl
where II viii keep hot, and then battle
the eyes with the solution. Use II
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. II she
will take a full hour for the prepare
ton of her face for the night she will
be rewarded by a greater measure OF
beauty than she has ever before pos
sessed.
The wrinkles between the eyes-and
all women OF thirty have this wrinkle

all the little querulous lines In the
forehead must be brushed away with
the finger tips. Besides this. the chin
must be nicely massaged 10 keep away
