many palaces in Newport are 'sThe
Breakers" "Ochre Court" and the
Marble Palace"
The late Cornelius Vanderbilt built
the first-named, and it is said that he
put absolutely no restriction on his
architect, the talented Richard Nor
ris Hunt
Mr.. Hunt, now dead, was allowed to-
carry out in detail the elaborate de-
sign he conceived. It grew beyond it's
original plans, for the army of serv-
ants necessary to conduct such a man
sion during the Newport season
forced him to find more room than he
had first schemed for, and house
meant for two stories had to go up to
four.
"The Breakers" fronts on the ocean.
It is built Of limestone, and each of
the four elevations has it's own dis
tinctive charm. In one it is the en-
trance porch, and driveway that ap-
peals; in another the rounded projec-
ton Of the drawing room continued as
a, bay in the second story; in the
third the double loggia filing out at
the center through two stories the
recess between the projecting wings;
on the front the lightness of effects
made by the elaborate and massive
lower openings contracted with the
simplicity of those above is the dis
tinctive and attractive feature.
Inside '"The Breakers" carries sump-
tuously to a point to make the average
onlooker hold his breath in amaze

i don't mind telling you," said a
beauty specialist, that nearly SO per
cent of our customers are men.
Men laugh at the beauty column
and they try to make you believe that
they don't care how they look. But, as
matter of real fact, men are just as
particular as women.
Every day men come to us and say:
I am bothered with wrinkles in my
face. There arc crows feet around
my mouth and my forehead is full
OF little fine lines. Then, too, have
blackheads. What can you do fer
me-?
I'VE take stock of the imperfections
and set to work to right them
Men are very appreciative Of what
you do for them. If you massage a
mans wrinkles and make his face
glow with fresh color he will thank
you. L look a hundred years young
err he will say. And he will go away
with a pleased look on his face
"A woman, On the other hand, will
sit and study her face and look

But a man expects nothing and is
thankful for what he gets.

Palaces Erected BY King
Midas at Newport, K. /.

In Newport the word Villa is an
other way of saying palace.
Bellevue avenue, from one end to
the other, is lined with the most ex.
pensive homes in the world. These
now are witnessing the very ultimate
in costly gaiety, and along the superb
drive never ending line of carriages
and automobiles carry from palace to
palace the millionaire seekers after
pleasure.
Nowhere ins the new world is the
apothesis of wealth so perfectly illus
trated as at Newport It is famous
epigram Of noted wit that Newport
gives itself up to expense regardless
of pleasure.
The long stretch Of Villas ON the
cliffs is the retiring place of plutocra-
cy, where wealthy New York can
shift to summer surroundings secure
from the intrusion of the lower five.
Forty years. ago the houses of those
who summered in Newport were real
ly cottages, but the social rivalries
have transformed the architecture.
To have one of these wonderful homes
on the summit of that ocean-swept
abode of aristocracy is almost to pro-
cure the open sesame to the envied
portals of society, hence there is little
cause for wonderment that one of the
first acts of the newly grown million
aire is to buy tract iof land, and turn
loose the best. architect he can buy,
with carte blanche, to exceed any
structure on the cliff.

whom Helen stood greatly in awe,
had unexpectedly asked the little girl

as the bishop the child did not know.

Beacon House hangs right over the
sea on narrow neck of rock. To
connect his palace with the rest of
Newport, Mr.. Morgan had to have

steamed his face. We rubbed some
good skin food into it and we spatted
it until it began to look plump. When
we got through he was as pink as
rose. I look fine said he, appreci
atively.
1--WE told him we had not finished
with him. Then we went to work to
make his skin clear. We took tiny
pinch of powder, and, spreading it in
our palms, we went over his face,
rubbing the powder in. 1t is astonish-
ing how much you can rub in, and
what a difference it makes in your
looks. We rubbed powder into that
mans cuticle until he was smooth and
clear Then we slapped his cheeks
until they were pink.
81 haven't looked like that for
twenty years., said he. And we re-
newed the slapping SO as to bring a
tiny touch of color to his chin and the
tips of his ears.
meanwhile, we manicured him
and, in doing this, we took care to pre-
serve his hands as nearly as possivle
in their natural state. We tried not
to give the hands an artificial look.
We merely gave them a fine gooming.
THE backs Of a mans hands should
be whitened in much the same way as
his face But there must be no loose
powder left upon the backs of the
hands. All must be rubbed
off. Then tiny drop of per-
fume is rubbed into each palm. Men
love to be manicured in this manner.
1t is much superior to the old style of
merely giving the nails brilliant
polish and not doing anything else.

need of giving a man beauty treat
