THE MAKING OF A PRETTY GIRL
HoO To Prevent and Fight Wrinkles
r Nfnrrnret Hubbard AZ.


~ VERY woman gets worried when
r, the first wrinkle makes its ap-
- pearance. She may be quite
heroic about It and say that she likes
lines in the face because they give
so much character to the appearance,
and all that. But you and know
that she has had an awful fight with
herself before she comes out with that
beautiful fairy tale about character.
IS the same fight that will be re-
peated again when a little tUft of
gray hairs can no longer be covered
up from view
There are all kinds Of wrinkles, some
Of them really do denote character.
and they often appear on the face
of the girl Of 20 just between her
brows as sign of thoughtful con

knows she has them for years to come.
for she is not the kind of girl who
looks very closely at the mirror.

from muscular contraction and is an
indication of temperament and the
habitual expression of the individual
Every wrinkle tells its special story
and there are many Of them that speak
of fine and beautiful attributes.
The girl with the horizontal lines
across her forehead tries hard to do
right and is over-conscientious. Short
lines at the corners of the mouth
running upward appear in the face
OF the woman who has borne her sor-
rows cheerfully and who has been
helped by faith and resigned spirit
Lines around the eyes. when. they
point upward, tell the story of mlrtn-
ful, happy disposition inst as those
that droop the other way tell of con-
centrated effort when accompanied oy

talker there will be lines near the
lower cheek which run down under the
chin.
A forehead that is criss-crossed by
many little lines in the middle OF the /
brow shows that small frets and Wor-
ries take Up much Of that persons time
No matter what the lines indicate, !
no woman likes TO see wrinkle IN her
face, and have heard tell that men
are not exactly crazy about them.
