Such years campaign against i'll health and
beauty woes, when carried to a triumphant
close, will do her more material good than all
the study of the Brownings and ancient history
she could acquire in a hundred years.
As side issues there is both mental and moral
food to be gained from studying the works of
the Brownings and delving into the mysteries
of ancient peoples but first let woman analyze
her own physical requirements and shortcomings.
Many women have doubtless made up their
minds to do various things for health and beauty
sake but Time rushes by and their intentions
fail to materialize; triAing matter becomes
serious one, and casual practice a confirmed
habit.
At this new year, when we start fresh cal
endar, make the occasion doubly memorable by
setting up standard of resolutions with suf-
fcient will power behind them to cheat Father
Time for five years at least. When a woman

WHERE UGLINESS is A CRIME
The Mohammedans have a saying that ITO
Eve God gave two-thirds of all beauty" Now
If this be true, women have certainly misused
this divine inheritance for many women do not
even possess onethird the beauty which could
be theirs for the trying.
The questions resolves itself into the query
whether a woman shall (as women are inclined
to do) ever ardently admire beauty in other
women and silently grieve because she is not
equally pleasing to look upon. Or whether she
shall grid on the arnor of resolve and success
fully encounter and overcome the foes that have
kept imprisoned gifts of Nature, which in most

Don't rush through your work and play as
though your life were to be snuffed out on the
morrow.
Be consistent-be moderate. Here is the secret
of the woman who always remains young and
who retains her youthful charms long after yours
have fed. She never allows any inroads on her
health and vitality, her nerves are steady and
she doesn't keep them on a continual war dance.
While her temper may be smoldering, it is
under perfect CONTROL her face passive, not lined
by facial gymnastics.

A nervous woman is never a beautiful woman.
Nervousness impairs every function of the body,
and is making hundreds of young women old.
Forget that you have nerves, and when
not called upon they will be less likely to as

calmly with folded hands for half an hour with
out fdgeting is the one you should take as your
model. She is multiplying her strength her pow
ers of endurance and letting Nature make her
repairs undisturbed. Thirty minutes so spent,

Without health there is no beauty.
