nomenon of sleep, because 1t includes
all else.
81 consider sleep the most important
aid to beauty in the world" she says.
And regard the beauty nap as an
absolute essential to a wonan's good
looks. It is rest cure and cosmetics
combined.
"If 1 were q great beauty I would
guard against fatigue as I would
against yellow fever. Lack of sleep
will make a woman old and yellow
while plenty of sleep will make her
Young and gay.
Most women think 1t is enough to
sleep at night. But the beauty sleep
taken during the day is immensely i'm

THE woman WHO sleeps sufficiently
will lave hair that stays its natural
co or: ksr eyes will sparkle and her
:lin will be ,'ear. her step will be

"I3ut the woman who Goes not sleep
,nouah will have q voice that cracks in
ts lower register. It's high notes will
&c 81 arp and there will be an old and
zucru.ous tone in her speech. Every
onc knows how quickly a woman's
,oicc loses it's youth. 1t is either too
high or too low: the middle register
is wholly gone. That is on account of
the lack of beauty sleep.
The woman who talks when she is
tired will have a streak OF gray hair

ink the streak will spread to the middle
of the forehead, where great disfigur-

face. If she does not rest in time
she will grow round shouldered and

creep over her face. Faces can keep
young if their owner will have rested.
Il have beautiful patient who
makes study of looking rested. She
always steals wink of beauty sleep
before dinner. Being fashionable
lady she dimes rather late, and the half
hour just before 6 is invariably devoted
to the snatching of few minutes
of rest. She is never disturbed dur
ing this time, and the result is that she
is bright at dinner. 1t is due to her
half hour of sleep.
"a very luxuriant patient of mine,
who thinks nothing of spending great
deal of money, is in the habit of giving
her face beauty bath. She uses cham
payne and milk and she daubs her
face with little sponge saturated in
the mixture. Then she takes a short
| nap and when she awakens she is as
bright as a button.
"It isn't necessary to spend a great
deal of money for the facial bath. A
dash of diluted cologne would do al
most as we'll as. champagne and milk.
And there are nice lotions of violets
, and spirits Of cologne that answer the
same purpose, and that can be made
at home.
II advise my patients to quiet their
nerves with the bath taken by the
czarina when worn out.
"Her majesty dips in milk and bran

warm blankets. She sleeps until rest

The Scented Pillow Nap.
'The pillow nap is something new,
and am introducing it among my pa
tients with much success. It is special

sentials are pillows, dozens of them.

way as to rest the nerves. The pillows.
must state, are filled with various
compounds.
"One of my patients has three little
rose leaf pillows which she places un-
der her head. She calls them ear pill
lows. They are just about the size
Of a fady's hand. She has also three
square pillows. filled with pine needles,
loosely packed. And she has several
