 BLANCHE BEACON
Think Beauty If You Want Beauty

Try and think you look your best always.
 To do this you must do all that you can to improve your appearance and when you look in your mirror you must pick out your beauty points instead of your defects.
 Do it this way:

 And the care of the other features should be on just the same high plane be ashamed of giving them the same care.
 Above all, tell people how we'll not how ill--they are looking; and above all, tell it to yourself.
 You know how the mere idea of looking your best will make you ap- pear. your best.
 thrown back and the blood will fairly race through your veins. Your face will brighten, your eyes will light up and the years will drop away From you as if by magic. 7 Your body has immediately re- sponded to the call of the mind and both it and the spirit are up1ifted.
 Optimism is the very best guide to health. The women. who are beauti- full are those who believe in every thing and everybody.
 Half of Mde. Racarnier's beauty came from her beautiful sympathetic disposition, and half of Madame De StaePs ug1iness was because of her egotistical and cynical temperament.
 The only way you can change the shape of your mouth is by thought
 The determined woman will have a, tightly shut mouth and the discon- tented one will turn her mouth down at the corners simply by her unhappy

They tell a good story on Major

asked to help and he insisted that th,

Billy Sunday has just received $1O,-

Ind. This same amount of money PIT
where it ought to be put-into the
churches of South Bend-would have
accomplished far more good, thinks
the Independence Reporter. But peo-
pie who scream with horror when
asked to give a dollar to the local
minister theman who faithfully bap-
ties the babies, marries the sons and
daughters and burieS the beloved
dead-will become so enamored OF
Billy Sundays abuse that they will
gladly part with their last cent to fill
his already stuffed purse. This is a
funny old world and among its other
anomalies is the travelling evangelist
who gets the coin.

Howard woman has told of a joke
on one OF her recent visitors, a lady
from a nearby town. The guest took
a bath in the bath room, and seeing
a box of dutch cleanser behind the
tub thought it was some sort of tai

ample form after the bath. In about
IA seconds it took effect in a manner
that reminded her of hot mustard,

rushed in and rinsed her off as quick
