Unquestionably the condition of the

true run race.

the rail was slow and cuppy, which
gave the starters drawing the outside

the downfall of Don Domo.

Partisan beauty doctors by American
women. With commendable prompt
ness they acted on the hint, and, sell
ing off their studio equipment, ap-
prenticed themselves to French spe-
cialists. When they had mastered the
methods of treatment, they came TO
New York and secured few patrons
among women who had been treated
by their chief in Paris. Today they
live in one of the most exclusive
apartment hotels of the city. They
dress with the taste of Partisan and
the purse of an American, and she
who would have an appointment with
them for facial treatment must speak
a week in advance.
Nothing will pay a bigger dividend
than the knowledge of how to make
women beautiful, and if you cannot
make them beautiful, it pays tolerably
well to make them even little bet

pay any price to earn the title of
beauty, and the price will be paid
without a murmur, either in cash, pain
or even health itself.

waves rolled and broke in thunder on
the decks and swished in salt cat

low, and the others looked at each other
with lifting of the eyebrows.
In two or three days the storm zone
had been passed, the wind sank, the
sea calned, the sun shone, and the
passengers came eagerly on deck and
stayed there as long as possible. 1t was
a moonlight night. The air was soft

on a deck chair and gazed up into the

extracted something of a tune from an

New York Beauty Mad
In no city in the world is this mad
search for beauty carried on SO fran
tically as in New York. Here come
women from all over the United States
IN search of beauty specialists. not be-
cause they have no beauty doctors in
their own town, but because they pre-
fer to have the Transformation wrought
away from home, trusting that such a
trifiing change as having the hair dyed
from copper color to black will be
laid, not to the hair specialist, but to
the change of climate and scenery.
The very atmosphere of New York
life it's showiness and its frothiness,
make women place a false estimate on
the value of beauty and appearance.
The average New York woman is a
monomaniae on the subject Of being
well groomed. A woman engaged In
business or art pursuits, making per-
haps $25 a week, will cheerfully pay
one-f fifth of this sum to the proprietor
of a beauty shop. She lays it aside as
a weekly tax
This amount paid regularly to the
same beauty parlor viii insure her the
following attentions: Her hands mani
cured twice week, her hair sham
poeed once a week and dressed daily,
and one facial massage. These rates
are secured only by special arrange
ment. and the beauty doctor. like the
dentist, has sliding scale Of prices.
He has a shreWd and not unkindly. way
of charging his regular customer in
proportion TO her possessions.
