Defects.

Defects.
Mother Nature has been good to
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.
II 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 q well-poised mind-a
mind which is not disturbed by the
small irritations Of every day life:
mind which is open to the harmon
ious things and closed 70 all that
would cause inharmony.
Nothing detracts from the face
more than fretful look. Impatience
and worry stamp their marks upon
the countenance and wrinkle plastera
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.contiD
ued use Of beautifying treatments.
There Is need for the work Of thu
beauty specialist in many, many
cases. Creams and lotions have theil
uses and we should not slight any ol
the reasonable means for improving
our looks. It Ia q duty we owe our
selves and our families to make thu
most Of our good features and i'm
prove in every way possible those
which are not up to our standard o.
beauty. These are plain duties. bu
lack Of them all is duty which
should have our first and most seri
GUS consideration. That duty Ia Il
get rid Of the mental qualities which
only serve to obstruct our efforts
toward Improvement.
How shall we 60 about making
this change in our mental stage? I
Is impossible to give definite rules II
such q matter. A few svggestionl
will be helpful, however. One o
them Is. stop worrying over thing
which you cannot help. Do all 20,
can to improve matters but do NO
allow yourself to worry. 1t II tn
most useless habit you can get int,
and also one Of the most harmful u
effect on both mind and body.
Another suggestion would be, avoi,
nagging and fretting as you woul'
avoid q pestilence. These are two o
the worst Of all mental ,ndulgences a
far as their effect on the face 10 con
cerned. Make your face q beautiful
one because It reflects the beauty o
harmonious. well.poised mind. an
such Insignificant things 40 an III
shaped nose or large mouth will no
detract in the slightest measure from
the real beauty Of your countenance.
Mental pcise can be yours with
little daily effort and It Is wort
working for. 1t means happiness an
health and beauty. Happiness 70
the home and the family and tn
friends as well as health and beaut
for yourself.
