host Of other ills. They will damage

than the body, and what the face ex-
presses is Of more moment than the
shape OF the nose or the brillianey of
the complexion.
The fact. physically attractive but
spoiled by its expression, is familiar.
Many a girl with faultless features
and a rose-leaf complexion spoils all
their beauty by a peevlsh, discomfort
ed or yapid expression. On the 9th
er hand, many a girl with snub nose
and a sallow complexion wins all by
the sunny loVableness Of her face. The
expression counts very large in sum

beauty.
In the quest, then, for beauty that
so many women go upon ceaselessly,
this matter Of the value of mentality
should be taken into account. II those
who seek beauty will acquire right
mental states. they will do as much,
perhaps more, toward accomplishing
their desire as they will by securing
the right masseuse or the right facial
cream.
The mental states that are foes to
beauty are many. We all indulge in
them more or less, and by so doing
detract TO just that extent from the
beauty we are trying to acquire.
Again, anger, irritabiIity, envy, 1eal-

the same nature have a bad effect
upon the looks.

Frame New Rules for Federal Courts

which the United States court rules OF
equity practice were adapted have
long since been displaced in the Eng
lish practice, and In almost every
minor Jurisdiction In the United States
where they were in force in the last
century have been abandoned for code
procedure or amended in accord with
modern ideas and practice.
Members Of the bar in commenting
on the proposed reform without excep-
ton commend It. They say that the
rules as they now stand, II rigidly en-
forced, would involve litigation in an
endless snarl. and that the present
rules have been tolerable only by rea-
son of the disregard of many Of them
which have been found impractical OF
enforcement in modern procedure. But
in such cases they say that special or
ders and short cuts in suits are made
to fit the individual case and thus the
whole procedure Is "up in the air" or
in the discretion Of the court" which
is in many cases just as bad.
No intimatlon was given by Chief
Justice White or either member Of the
committee Just what form the revision
will take, but It is agreed that it VIII
look to the expediting Of causes, and
the relief OF litigants from the almost
prohibitive expense of the present
equity procedure.
The committee is expected to report
its recommendations to the Supreme
court early In the fall term.
