How to Be Beautiful
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

IT want to be beautiful Oh. want TO
be beautiful writes Inez. II want the
man l care for to love me always. Can
you tell me how TO make myself SO beau
tiful that he will always care, or is this
too hard7''
MY dear girl. this Is easy for me. 1 can
tell you just how to be beautiful, but you
will have to work hard to attain true
beauty.
Eternal vigilance is the price of beatty.
Laziness, gluttony, temper, stubbornness
and all the dear indulgences Of feminine
nature must be sacrificed once and for
all II you want to be beauty.
Are you willing to work INCREASINGLY
Are you willing to be forever climbing
long steep hill7 Are you energetic, am
bilious and determined? Well, then, you
may set confidently about being a beauty.
You must cultivate beauty in three de-
partments. You must have a clean,
wholesome, well developed body first OF
ali.
To do this sacrifice sweets, sauces.
gTavies, condiments. hot breads and all
your pet indigestibles. Drink water, a
very little clear. sugariess. creamless tea
or coffee and lemonade. Avoid liquor and
all indulgenoes in overeatlng or over
drinking.
Get every bit of fresh air you can man
age and take every form of brisk exer-
else you can afford.
Now, with your body-house In order, set
sanely about eultivating a sweet, kind,
placid spirit II you think amiable. happy
thoughts. avoid temper sulks, bitterness,
breeding. envy and malice and simply
make your nature a storehouse for sun
shine. your face will take on an express
sion OF sweet loneliness. Truly. girls. a
beautiful expression is in the power OF
everyone, and a beautiful, expressive face
where amiability rules. is much more
lastingly attractive than an expresslonless
pink and white affair that may belong to
a magazine cover as well as a girl
And now you must dress In good taste
Study your color scheme. Bring out ali
its good pints and tone down the glarins
things you don't like. Just cultivate your
artistic eye so you'll know instinctively
that you mustn't set an orange hat atoI
your nouse-brOwn hair and pretty com
pleKion or wear an anaemic gray dress
IL you are all vivid browns and reds.
Bring out your points. II will take
brains TO find the best way to do this
But however clever you are II Is worth
your while to be beautiful. too. for rea
beauty Is made up OF all the best things
IN the world. They are yours for tbs
taking.
To be beautiful Is TO be kind and sweei
and loving. to be healthy and wholesome
and sane and clean. TO be strong and
wise and patient
With beauty like this, dear Insz. your
husband will love you always Thii
beauty is yours for the taking.

grains, as fixed by legal enactment. A
mass weighing 1000 grains at the equator
or the earth would weigh by spring bal
ance 7.UJ5.S grains II taken 10 either pole.
The reason why lie the fact that either
pole is 1898 miles neaEer the center OF
the earth than is the equator. Therefore
a man could lift a greater quantity of
matter at the equator than at the earth S
poles.
For the gravitation exerted by the en-
tire quantity of matter (mass) of the
earth, on any external body is the same
as II the whole mass )uld be concen-
trated at the center And the force of
this attraction varies inversely as the
square Of the distance from the center OF

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 21.-
Material increase in passenger fares,
practically throughout the country
except in southeastern territory, will
be caused by advances announced by
railroads in trunk line territory, and
IN New York City and Pittsburg, and
In Central Passenger Association ter
ritory, between Pittsburg and Chi.
cago and st. Louis. Practically thc
basis for reimbursement is two and
one-half cents mile, the present
basis generally being two and one
fourth cents
In Central Passenger Association
territory, the new rates will become
effective ON December and in trunk
line territory and between the two
territories, they will become effective
on December 10.
An analysis by interstate commerce

by the railroads shows the advance
between specific points by comparing
the present with, the proposed fares
The rates of the standard routes In
all instances are a trifle higher than
those of the so-called differential

LONDON, Nov. 21.-With the adj
dition OF Turkey and Portugal to the
ranks OF the belligerents. the area
Of hostilities has been extended to
approximately So per cent. or the
land surface OF the globe, and about
Sc per cent. of the total population
of the earth must be classed as tech

In round numbers, out OF a total
land surface Of 51,500,00O square

500, 900, 900 human beings on earth
are directly involved iii the great

Apportioning the area and popula-

a vast preponderance of both on the
side of Britain and her allies, which
