Some Of these sheds were built In
localities where the country was

PLASTIC SURGERY GAINS
Modern Miracles Wrought by New
Methods Are Not As Difficult
As They Seem.

The remarkable development of plas-
tic surgery during and since the war Is
described by DR.. Henry J. Schlreson of
chicago. THE modern miracles
wrought by plastic surgery are by no
means as difficult or impossible as they
sound" he said. Every woman has a
right to be attractive and every man
mas an asset when he looks like a
wholesome man, not defaced one
Since the war; when something vital
and effective was necessary to aid
those veterans who were wounded and

victims of the war and of accidents

vent you from having a brilliant
career
Possessed Of tact and diplomacy
frank and straightforward, there are
no heights to which you can not
climb
You are fond Of social life and
you must be careful not to spend
your all in pursuit of happiness.
A good many love affairs will
come into your life. You must be
cautious. You should marry young
and have a home and family. Sue
cess is yours if you bend your eff
fort.
Sunday, Nov. 9.-You will be able
to exercise considerable power in
your community if you will take
the initiative and exert your natural
ability to furthering good causes
Success in love affairs and in the
business world will come to you,
but you must be ready to seize the
opportunities as they occur.
Keep the better things of life up
permost in your mind and be eau
tious to tread path from which flat
terry can not swerve you. You can
now plant the seed of beauti-
full life that will" bloom more bril-
liant for you in later years.
