o MORE in any direction of
merit than you talk or write
about it
There are many physicians who are
talking and writing about health;
they are rich with information. but
they are forever ailing, and they in no
way express health and virility in
their appearance
There are teauty specialists who
carry sallOW compilations, dry, lus
terless hair and Uncared for teeth as
sign boards Of their own inefficiency
in the line of work they represent.
There are manicures whose nails
offend the sight; there are teachers OF
metaphysical thought who write and
lecture on the power of the mind to
accomplish all things, yet who are
constantly complaining of their own
lack of supply, and blaming fate and
circumstance therefor. and asking aid
of others to establish themselves.
A woman who gave lectures to
classes of interested men and women
on the art CT making a beautiful home
on a small amount of money lived
in the most haphazard manner; her
house was a pandemonium of disorder,
and Ggllpess ard discomfort started
from every corner.
Another who wrote on interior deco
rations, in a skilled and scientific
manner, allowed her home to not only
offend the eye, but 1t gave forth the
EVIL doors of unsired and unswept and
unclcaned rooms.
whole beyy of women artists,
copying. pictures sublime with beauty,
in an Old World gallery, looked like
sculiion maids out of work; so IN
kempt, uncombed, and untidy was
their appearance.
There can be no great and lasting
success for any one who does not
make an effort to demonstrate the
truths they preach. by pen or word,
IN their own lives, homes and per-
sOnsliIy.
A woman was urging her friends
to believe in the principles of New
Thought.
You do not need medicine. or rest
cures, or fasts. or diets" she said, Ito
be strong, beautiful and ever young.
1t is only matter of continual
right thinking.
Affirm the truth every day and
you will soon see results"
Yet this woman was not beautiful;
she did not look health, opulence,
youth or beauty.
She looked aenemic; her complexion
was sailow. and no one could see her
without thinking that she needed q

All I know is that Beth came over
one evening and found me dangerously
lonesome. 1 felt neglected and abused,
and was wondering if the rewards
for good behavior were commensurate

stances: I just drifted!

1t was not until next day that I
really saw any rocks ahead. 1 was
sitting in the office reading the base
ball news when the door opened, and IN

before. True, she had said something
about marrying her, and the only reply

MARVELOUSLY BEAUTIFUL
INA SINGLE NIGHT
FREE PRESCRIPTION
DID IT.

Grace Benson of Rochester. New
York says. Had anyone told me such
wonderful results could be accom-
plished so quickly, L positively would
not have believed it, Ny arms and
hands were covered with freclles; my
neck was dark and wrinl1led from the
use of high collars; my hands were
tanned and the knuckles red
All these defects were removed by
one application of a free prescription,
which 1 am pleased to give TO anyone
It's just as simple as it is effective

She is rarely witty and has a way OF

upbuilding.
She was no authority for her words.
Be sparing Of your words on any
subject or theory until you have some
thing in your own life to make a solid,
dignified background for your state
ments.
A man assured the writer recently
that he should be alive in 200 years
to come.
1t was easy to make the statement.
But it would be more sensible for
him to show. day by day, that he is
living an absolutely healthful, useful,
normal and beautiful life; that he is
using all his vital forces constructively
and wasting nothing in destructive
thought.
Then, after a decade, if he remains
young and strong, and has demon
strated all his ideals, he can safely
talk his theories.
Be and do. before you talk too much.
