WHAT IS BEAUTY?

We say that Helene Is beautiful, yet
If we should cover the upper part of
her face with a cloth and look only
at her mouth, it would suddenly dawn
upon US that that feature is really too
large and, in fact, rather ugly.
In the same way, we speak Of blond
Alice having an insipid face. Yet, the
most critical observer, II he stopped
to analyze her face would be forced
to admit that every detail was ex-
quisitely formed and placed with re-
lation to the other features.
How can we, then, erect any single
standard of beauty. l will admit that
l have formed a standard, and 1t is
this: that no girl Is a true beauty un-
less h can look we'll. even beautiful
at any hour of the day, o. in any
costume.
Yet one of the men 1 know, who is
a dilettante and a Well known art
critic, claims that to him no girl is
beautiful unless her beauty varies con-
stantly. In other words, he Is pleas
antly piqued when Elsie, who yester-
day was triumphantly lovely, today
looks somewhat faded and monde

II you are the kind of a woman who
looks even moderately we'll all the
time, play up to that point. Try to

aspects as possible. If you are like

her coloring, play up to that. When

will be surprised to see how interesting
1t makes you. People will continually

HOW TO PREPAR { FOR Old Age.

To be exact, how to prepare for mid

teens who stops to realize what MAJ

the forties gracefully and attractiveiy.
To my mind, the training for beauty
In middle age should begin when the
child is about 6 years old. The care
full mother will begin to take stock OF
her baby girl and determine what nat
urally disappointing features are TO be
remedied, and what good points nm
phasized.

thing, but she interrupted me with:
That would make my little daugh-

From time i~mmemorial, woman has
sought in some way or another to i'm

of beauty. In past time, it has been

Homework to do"
How many times do you hear a wom-
an make this remark when you have
called her attention to some we'll set
up friend and remarked that she went
through a physical culture regime.
The woman who does Homework Is
in the best possible place for practic-
ing physical Culture-she can make her
homework the basis OF the very best
physical culture exercises. For instance,
when a woman stoops to pick up some
thing from the floor she must bend
from her hips. This is a wonderful exer-
else for the tightening Of the abdominal
muscles n reducing the hips. Very
few women realize how often they stoop
to pick up things and they invariably
do 1t by bending the knees. This is

There is nothing quite so bettishly in
artistic as a shiny face, and the girl
who hesitates to bestow a few dabs of
powder upon it, because there Is a
young man with her, is very foolish.
Concealment vs.. frankness is car
ried still farther by some women.
Aside from their auction methods of
flesh reducing, their servant problems
and new recipes, the most frequent
