1t is interesting to see the rise of
the beauty shops all over America,
Every town has its quota, all of
them dedicated largely to the pro-
duction and maintenance of artifi-
cial beauty. Dressing tables of many
women have as many preparations
on them as the old-time doctors
pill cases used to contain, and the
American women's bill for cosme-
tics Is almost as large as their bill
Tor movies, and that runs into the
scores OF millions.
Cosmetics are the stock in trade
OF all beauty cures and beauty
treatments. What American women
are doing by using these cosme tics
Is seeking the illusion Of health.

sist packages are left on doorstep.
When delivery receipt must be signed,
ask messenger to pass receipt under

daughters to beware Of men they do
not know.
Under no circumstances enter base
ment with peddlers, junkmen or ven
ders without leaving street doors wide
open and keeping between them and
