The day has gone by when We can
truthfully say to the younger genera
ton Beauty is what beauty does"
for 1t is an acknowledged fact among
women that. Irrespective of their men,
tai attachments or noble qualities Of
heart. they must be youthful in looks
as far into old age as possible.
OF course, the pendulum can swing
too far this way, and q certain class
hold themselves up to ridicule by all
fair-minded women: but as a principle.
this assisting nature with simple
means on the outward form and deny
ing age the right to make wrinkles
from within by maintaining a mind
free from nagging worry and a heart
clear Of angry dregs, all this Is most
wise step on the part Of woman and
one to be commended on all sides.
That the expression, form and tex.
ture of the face can be altered, is a
scientific fact. There are Just two
conditions that you must always plan
to figure in when working for any
desired result. One is. you must not
expect miracles, and the other, you
must be willing to pay the price, The
one takes patience, the other charac-
ter.

The highest type of beauty In cur

The right combination of all three is
not very common and. therefore. all
the more to be desired. Yet, women
are often attractive who possess only
one Of these three requisites.
The first requisite for decency Of
living is neatness. The first requisite
for morality is neatness. The first
requisite for the attainment of beauty
of either face. form or grace is "ex-
quisite neatness" in person, dress and
ways.
Soap and water ia a great factor to

any deviation from the standard "ex-
