a whole generation of would-be Lilies
have started in to gid themselves from
the pot of gold which flows out of their
| hands through the hands of physicians,
dermatoloGists and cosmetic artists.
The science Of beauty has passed
| from the hands of "A dabbler i'm cos
metics and is now in those Of surgeons
and scientists. The great surgeons of
Vienna, Paris and America are making
| experiments in cosmetic surgery and in
/ identifying the human face. And many
! of these experiments have passed he
yond the first stage and have become
scientific ccrtainties.
A few years ago a Viennesc physician
started to build up broken noses by
the subcutaneous injection Of paraffin.
Paraffin was used with disastrous re-
suits. at first to fill up sunkcn faces
and deep lines and burrows But since
then by dint Of much experimenting
and work different ingredients have
been found which injected under the
skin will fill it out without hardening.
and in this way frowns and wrinkles
are taken out every day. sunken checks
are filled and an air of youth and
beauty is impaired in moments time
Two opposite schools OF beauty. one
may call them. have arisen and con-
front each other. each boasting ire
mendous success and both with the
same ideals. one is based on entirely
artificial means. the other on natural
principles: and both own one rule in
common, that is that the cost Of beauty
is high.
You see more representatives Of the
artificial school of beauty. and the
price OF this runs up into hundreds of
thousands. Dcvotees of this means Of
attaining desired end buy their hair
ready made. get their figures at the
corsetiere and their compilations i'm

pay as much as 5000 for good
rouge or one they have been told is
good. and the price of tho cosmetics
