NEW SKIN FOR OLD.
Well Might Have Been a Tale from
arabian Nights


\ story comes from Paris that
might we'll have been taken straight
from the Arabian Nights. The tale is
of woman who tried to buy new
skin 1t is the story of a Princess
Zobeide. who awoke one day to the
consciousness that slC was growing
old and that the only sutors who
sought her hand were inpecunious adj
venturers who were attracted by her
money and not by her personal
charms. The story here condensed is
given. in r. P's London Weekly With
oriental proliXity.
The princess still INDUCED in her
beauty sleep. but without avail. one
day her first badly in waiting returned
10 the palace in Il state of great cX-
element Against orders though it
wass she rushed into the prineesss
apartment, aWoIc her from her sleep
and announced that she had Wonder
ful news-a great physioi ian. Il 1nagi-
elan. indeed was outside the gates
telling he VAS able To give women new
skins for old. In proof OF bis skill the
lady in waiting showed Che back of
her hand. llo, and behold, the skin
that was dark and Wrinkied WAS gone
and in its place was a skin smooth
and white!
The eusicle eonjur6r was brought
into the presence Of the princess With
out delay. lie declared that in seven
DAYS all traces .Of her present skin
with its heavy lines and sagging prop
critics should be gone, and from be-
meath it would arise the new skin of
child. For seven days the princess
was invisible to every one but her
confidential lady in waiting and the
physician There were ofntmcnts and
lotions and washes. There were rub
biugs and poundings and pinchings
and then came the new skin, oh, so
white and pink delicate as that of q
girl in her teens, forehead. cheek and
chin, neck and shoulders clothed in
the marvellous new coveringi
But alas, the princess had not found
the balm of youth after all. After a
few days the old skin began to return
with all the old blemishes accentuated,
all the old wrinkles deepened The
medicine man was sought and found.
He refused to return TO the palace.
Tell the princess" he said, I'm not
responsible for the old foundations.
My contract was to give a new skin,
l gave it, that it was to last was an
other matter altogether
The basis OF the story is suit in a
Partisan law court. where woman
has an action against a beauty doctor
claiming $4,000 She alleges that he
promised her new skin and furnished
one, but that it did not last and her
condition is now worse than before
Other victims of the beauty doctor are
reported, who paid from $500 TO $500
for the new skin which unfortunately
for them did not endure and their last
state is worse than their first.-Man-
