come the Real or Imaginary
Defects.
Mother Nature has been good 70
each one of us, and if we would only
realize this fact we would save our
selves much unhappiness. To each
one she has given some degree of
beauty which should offset many de-
fects and cause us to accept them
without making ourselves unhappy.
We are not always thankful for our
blessings. Indeed we frequently lose
sight OF them entirely because we are
so busy grumbling over the things
which do not happen to suit our
fancy that our vision is obscured. We
fail to make the best of our good
points because we spend all our time
fretting over our real or imaginary
defects.
If we are in earnest in our deter
mination to make the most of the
beauty with which Mother Nature has
endowed us, our first effort should be
to acquire well-poised mind-a
mind which is not disturbed by the
small irritations of every day life; a
mind which is open to the harmon
ious things and closed to all that
would cause inharmony.
Nothing detracts from the face
more than a fretful look. Impotence
and worry stamp their marks upon
the countenance and wrinkle plasters
and massage creams are almost pow
erless to eradicate them. Harmony
and happiness leave their marks also.
and where these marks are found
there is seldom need for long-contin-
ued use of identifying treatments.
There is need for the work of the
beauty specialist in many, many
cases. Creams and lotions have their
| uses and we should not slight any Of
the reasonable means for improving
our looks. 1t is duty we owe our
selves and our families to make the
| most of our good features and i'm
prove in every way possible those
which are not up to our standard of
beauty These are plain duties, hut
lack of them all is a duty which
should have our first and most seri-
GUS consideration. That duty is to
get rid of the mental qualities which
only serve to obstruct our efforts
toward Improvement.
How shall we go about making
this change in our mental stage? 1t
is impossible to give definite rules in
such a matter. A few suggestions
will be helpful however One of
them is, stop worrying over things
which you cannot help. Do all you
can to improve matters but do not
allow yourself to worry. It is the
most useless habit you can get into
and also one of the most harmful in
effect on both mind and body
Another suggestion would be- avoid
nagging and lretting as you would
avoid a pestilence. These are two Of
the worst of all mental indulgences as
far as their effect on the face is con-
cerne1. Make your face beautiful;
one because it reflects the beauty Of
harmonious, well-poised mind, and
such insignificant things as an I'LL
shaped nose or large mouth will not
detract in the slightest measure from
the real beauty OF your countenance.
Mental poise can be yours with
little daily effort and it is worth
working for. 1t means happiness and
health and beauty. Happiness for
the home and the family and the
friends as we'll as health and beauty
for yourself.
Tourist Reader.-You will not need
so long a list Of toilet preparations
for use on that trip. l would certain
ly suggest a good cleansing cream
and tonic or lotion as we'll. A mas
sage cream which will also answer
for foundation for powder. A bot
tie of rosewater for use instead of
plain water. which is often an irritant
to sensitive skin. A bottle of eye
tonic. and few other things, all of
which can be neatly packed in a
small toilet case and which will be a
great comfort to you, as we'll as keep
your complexion in fine condition. No
charge is made for any advice from
this department, and you are well
come to ask as many questions as you
wish.
Busy Body.-For very grimy hands
use cleansing cream generously and
thoroughly before scrubbing with
soap and water This will soften the
dirt, and it can be more readily re-
moved. If you will dissolve a little
baking soda in bowl of quite warm
water and soak the hands in this for
five minutes after using the cream
you will soon be able to get the hands
white. Use mild soap, as very
strong soaps make the skin rough and
the dirt is much harder to get out.
Remember to rinse the hands always
