There is no function of the human body so important as keeping the bowels open.

There is scarcely a Sickness that has not got constipation and stomach trouble complicated with it. It is at the bot tom of most of the serious diseases of life.

beauty that their pictures proclaim"
Alas. the answer was No"
Just then the door closed quietly
and I saw that Mr.. Casad was no
longer with US.
Oh, the deep perfidy of man; the
mendacity which kills confidence!
Where were gone the guides to beauty
preservation, the hygienic hints which
women read so avidly and ignore so
charmingly? Gone with Mr.. Casad,
from whose fertile brain and fine imag-
inaton they sprang, and who failed to
call rehearsal.
Thus. fair and gentle reader, out of
this interview which really promised
SO much for the conservation of beauty

when beauty is brought from abroad?
The beauties of the stage are too rare
to be confined to one land but should
by all means be enticed to other coun-
tries that all may glimpse the radiance.
Think of the irreparable loss had the
Jersey Lily remained in England. or
Annette Kellermann stayed in Austria
old in ST. Petersburg. Beauty should
travel, and though there may be a
proper duty charged on imported
peaches there are no embargoes placed
internationally against the free de-
parture and arrival of blooming theat-
rical peaches
1t was, then, with some trepidation
that stood while Casad, who. acted as
guide and guardian, raped gently on
the door Of the ST. Francis apartments
wherein I was told awaited three of
Britain's fairest. / consoled mys,uf
with the thought that acknowledged
beauty needs no compliment and that
perfection requires no Endorsement
Thus, 1 reasoned to myself, I might
cover a natural bashfulness behind a
mask of silent admiration and make
copious notes of what was to be
dropped from the lips OF the fair.
Meanwhile three voices in cheerful
burst upon US. In the confusion that
ensued I dimly suspected I had been
duped. They were not three English
beauties. One was Irish. AS usual,
England was claiming credit due to
Cork. I knew. that one OF them was
Irish because Of the raven black hair,
the big blue-I think they were blue
eyes. the saucy nose with a bit of
tilt to it. and by a touch of brogue
which is as difficult to define as Celtic
good humor.
The other two were English. Any
body could tell that. Give over" said
Miss Barbara Darlington, in soft con-
tralto voice, when Mr.. Casad began a
gallant speech; whereupon 1 pulled
forth an American joke. one of the
neatest I know, and which for ten
years has never failed me in polite cir
cles Only Eileen Clanford and r
laughed. Eileen is the Irish beauty
Resisting the temptation to jump into
a discussion of that stock subject

ceeded on a topic which 1 felt sure
would interest the ladies Of our set
who say they read this page every
week-"The preservation of beauty"
Not that the thought was original with
me. Mr.. Casad had suggested it. The
possibilities of the story could be, you
see, so nicely suggested in the caption

just about the same way as you and
I do.
The mystery of their beauty lies in
birth and good health. On account Of
both favoring circumstances of good
breeding and good health they need
