It is the ambition OF every woman
nowadays to be beautiful So much we
may gather from the rage for beauty
doctors who are to be found scattered
abroad all over the land, pandering 70
the increasing vanity of the mod
eTn woman. and incidentally reaping a
fat harvest from the arts which they
practice and the sale of their much-ad-
veTtised pastes and nostrums
Without doubt the beauty-doctor craze
Is one that has come to stay, for il
is one that subtIy appeals to a large
class, not only of the luxurious rich, but
to women Of every class and condition
of sOcia standing
To make the old become young and 20
transform youth into a dazzling vision
Of loneliness is the prUfessed business
of the beauty doctor, and this is work
that while there are any women left in
the world is pretty certain to receive
a liberal patronage. The pity is that
the results fall so Iamentabiy short Of
the promised mark, and that in nine
cases out of every ten they are so dis
tressing TO behold.
For since the beauty doctor craze has
received such popular support 1t is no
longer an uncommon sight to see grand
mothers masquerading as debutantes,
their satin-smooth skin 5ereft Of the
dignity Of their wrinkles and of express
sion also: their tragically bleached locks
dressed in frowsy fashion. helping TO in
tensify the grotesque appearance of
their mask-1ike faces, which are
bleached and painted and made more
conspicuous by vivid carmined lips,
the like of which nature never devised.
