THINK YOU ARE A BEAUTY
AND you WILL BE ONE, rs THIS
BEAUTY SHOPS THEORY.

Arc Also Taught to Make the Most
Of the Good Points They Possess.
There is beauty shop In London. where
the beauty shop fiourishes even more than
elsewhere in which the patients are taught
ID think themselves bellies.
1T Ia marvellous" says the owner. who
Is now in this country getting beauty hints.
-to observe the influence Of mind over
matter. Women come In here looking
ugly. Inside Of Q couple Of hours they 20
ont radiantly beautiful.
sOur principle Ia that q woman Il greatly
Influenced by her mind. II woman sus-
poets that something is wrong with her
appearance II shows In her face, Her mouth
droops and her brow lies In wrinkles.
"Now. working the other way. II you
tell woman that she is looking her best.
II you compliment. her upon her gowns.
you please her. Her mind is at ease and she
begins to look pretty.
@At our beauty shop we treat the ap-
pearance through the mind. 1t 10 a branch
OF the faith treatment. The woman who
says Rhe is we'll and thinks she is well
will have much better health than the one
who lahnrs under the belief that she Is III.
So with the looks.
"Our shop WAS In reality started by an
Enslishrnan now dead. He was an apostle
Of beauty and when he came to America
the first thing that impressed him was
the beauty Of the American womon.
"'What makes the women 60 pretty?'
he asked. 1t isn't that they are 30 classic.
or so perfectly formed, or 30 ideal In any
other external respect. What. then. is
II that gives them such chic.:'
"Then he answered the question for him
self. He said
''It Is their training. They are taught
In childhood that they are beauties. They
are brought up to think themselves bellies.
When grown the American woman arts
as though she were professional beauty.
and the very fact that she carries herself
like a belle makes her twice as good to
look upon
"This theory gradually crept into our
beauty shop. One Of our latest triumphs
IL an American woman. Her ono good
feature Is q pretty mouth.
''You are prettiest when you SMILE We
said TO her the first day she called.
Then she smiled brightly, and We
asked her to smile again. We have sue
oeeded in coaxing her into frame Of mind
where the smile is habitual.
"0f course we treat the smile. We take
her mouth and train It upward at the corr
ners. This is quite simple matter.
'Sit down In front OF the glass and prao-
tise upon your mouth. Smile, and you will
see the corners lift themselves a little.
Smile again and see your lips curl. Lift
the corners OF your mouth and pinch them
slightly. In little while your smile will
be bright and curved. Your upper lip
will curve upward In Cupid bow.
Then be careful Of your teeth. 1t Is
impossible for face to be wholly bad
looking when the teeth are nice.
In our shop we believe that women are
influenced by the thought that they are
beauties. A really pretty brunette called
upon US one day last spring. Her eyes
were .deep. and lovely. her features wers
but unfortunately she had bad skin,
Her eyes had a frightened look, as
though she knew that her skin was poor
and dreaded to have US tell her SO. We
set her mind at rest and then her skin

This is what we taught her-the max

and makes blotches around the eyes.
