WisdomAcquiired In Use Of Ad-
 iuncts To Beauty

To look younger than ones age is not necessarily to look more attractive Mach age has its own fascination, anC 70 1ettison the charm of maturity fol rhe Fata Morgana of a spurious youth fulness is to sell one's own birthright But, to make the most of this rart charm, certain amount of wisdom must be acquired in the use of adjuncts to beauty.
 Often tthe woman approaching middle age becomes panicky either believes that art and artifice are no longer for her and declines into a pallid and monde script obscurity,. or goes to the other extreme and plunges into a cosmetic orgy in the effort to retain the outward appearance of youth. Both extremes are wrong. There is no reason why the older woman should not use cosmetics in moderation to improve her appear. ance, but she will only defeat her pur- pose and add years to her age if sht makes up in a glaring defeat her pur pose and add years to her age if she makes up in a glaring imitation of youth.
 The reason for this is obvious. Cos metics, apart, 1t is not natural for an older woman to have as high a color in her cheeks or lips as young girl Therefore, since the principal of artis- tic makeup is to adhere as closely to nature as possible, it is unaesthetic for mature woman to display cherry lips and bright pink cheeks, unless these at tributes have withstood the years and belong to her naturally.
 What rules of makeup then shall the mature woman follow? Obviously. she is of all types, blonde, medium or brunette, so that no more than for the younger woman can any one type of makeup be laid down. Let her select the rouge and powder suited to her type, as discussed previously in these eolumns-for the blonde, rouge, Man. darine, Naturelle or Peaches powder, For the brunette, Ashes of Roses rouge, Rachel or Peaches and Cream powders, 1t Is for her a question of reducing the emphasis. From, say, forty or forty five on, good taste demands the sub dued use of color on the cheeks and lips.
 It is extremely important for the older woman to apply rouge where her own natural color is. As a general |. rule, the color recedes as one grows older, and is found lower on the cheeks than in early youth. The rouge must be very carefully applied and shaded at the edges so as to leave no hard line. By all means go to the window when doing this, so that the uncompromising light of day will guide you as to the amount of rouge to apply.
 There are some women who find as they approach middle age that, far from losing their color, they have a ten dency to become more florid in com plexion. This sometimes is accentuated to an embarrassing degree after eating, dancing, excitement or exercise. To tone down this unbecoming flush to a more delicate color, a new powder has been originated, which bears the TO- mantle name of Vert Ophelia. While this powder has a green tone, it is of the utmost delicate water green, or the palest Nile, such as you might get in very filmy gauge, and in fact the effect of its use is to pass very becoming veil over the too.flushed face.

A little metal instrument was in his
hand, but 1t went instantly back into
his pocket-the door was not locked
He stepped inside and closed the
door behind him. Locke had one OF
the best and most expensive reser-
vations Non the ship-a suite Of two
rooms and a private bath, but there
was separate door from each oil
these rooms to the passageway
without, since, naturally, they were
not always booked en- suite. And
the room he stood in now was the
one Locke used for his sitting room
and always as the entrance to the
suite itself.
Captain Francis Newcombe was
quick in every movement now. He
ran through to the other room--the
acknowledging the connecting
door behind him. He switched on
the light, and turned at once to the
door that gave here on the passage
way. The key was in the lock, and
the door was locked. He unlocked
1t.
The next instant he had a port
manteau open and was delving into
its cantents. 1t contained nothing
but clothing-shirts. collars, ties,
underwear. and the like. He opened
saother, and still another with the
same result. Papers! 1t was the
mans papers that interested him.
He snarled q little savagely to
himself. There was nothing for it
then but the steamer trunk under
the couch-and Locke might be back
at any moment. He dragged. out
the trunk-and snarled again
savagely. 1t was locked. He be-
gan to work with it now, swiftly,
deftly, with the little steel picklock.
1t yielded finally. and he flung
back the lid. Yes, this was what
he wanted. On the top lay a
leather dispatch case. But this also
was locked. Again Captain Francis
Newcombe set to work-and pres
entity was glancing through q mass
of papers and documents that the
dispatch case had contained: letters
from the fathers firm to the son,
signed by Locke senior; a letter of
credit in substantial amount: an
underwriting agreement with a
London house for the floating of a
huge Issue of bonds, signed and
sealed, the tangible evidence of
young Locke's successful trip, of
which he had spoken. Incontro-
