Though Speclalist May Do Much, It Remains With Ourselves to Over come the Real or Imaginary Defects. Mother Nature has been good to| | each one of us, and if we would only | realize this fact we would save our gelves much unhappiness. To each) one she has given some degree of| beauty which should offset many de- tects and cause us to accept them without making ourselves unhappy. We are not always thankful for our blessings. Indeed, we frequently lose slght of them entirely because we are g0 busy grumbling over the things which do not happen to suit our fancy that our vision Is obscured. We fail to make the best of our good points because we spend all our time fretting over our real or imaginary defects. It we are in earnest in our deter mination to make the most of the beauty with which Mother Nature has endowed us, our first effort should be to acquire a well-poised mind—a mind which is not disturbed by the small irritations of every day life; a mind which is open to the harmon- fous things and closed ‘o all that would cause inharmony. Nothing detracts from the face more than a fretful look. Impatience and worry stamp their marks upon the countenance and wrinkle plasters and mascage creams are almost pow: erless to eradicate them. Harmony and happiness leave their marks also, and where these marks are found there is seldom need for long-contin- ued use of beaulifying treatments. beauty speclalist in many, cases. Creams and lotions have their user and we should not slight any of the reasonable means for improving our looks. It is a duty we owe our gelves and our familles to make the most of our good features and im- prove in every way possible those which are not up to our standard of beauty. These are plain duties, but Jack of them all is a duty which should have our first and most serf ous consideration. That duty is to get rid of the mental qualities which only serve to obstruct our efforts toward Improvement, How sghall we go about making this change in our mental etage? It is impossible to give definite rules in such a matter. A few svggestions will be helpful, however. One of them is, stop worrying over things which you cannot help. Do all you can to improve matters but do mnot allow yourself to worry. It is the most useless habit you can get into and also one of the most harmful in sffect on both mind and body. Another suggestion would be, avoid nageging and fretting as you would avold a pestilence. These are two of the worst of all mental indulgences as far as their effect on the face is con- cerned. Make your face a beautiful one because it reflects the beauty of a harmonious, well-poised mind, and such {insignificant things as an fll shaped nose or a large mouth will not detract in the slightest measure from the real beauty of your countenance. Mental pecise can be yours with a little daily effort and it is worth working for. It means happiness and health and beauty. Happiness for the home and the family and the friends as well as health and beauty for yourself. Tourist Reader.—You will not need 00 long a list of tollet preparations for use on that trip. I would certain. ly suggest a good cleansing cream and a tonic or lotion as well. A mas- sage cream which will also answer for & foundation for powder. A bot- tle of rosewater for use instead of plain water, which is often an irritant to a sensitive skin. A bottle of eye tonic, and a few other things, all of which can be neatly packed in a small toilet case and which will be a great comfort to you, as well as keep your complexion in fine condition. No charge is made for any advice from this department, and you are wel come to ask as many questions as you wish, Busy Body.—For very grimy hands use cleansing cream genercusly and thoroughly before scrubbing with soap and water. This will soften the dirt, and it can be more readily re moved. If you will dissolve a little baking soda in & bowl of quite warm water and soak the hands in this for five minutes after using the cream you will soon be able to get the hands white. Use a mild soap, as very strong soaps make the skin rough and the dirt s much harder to get out. Remember to rinse the hands always in clear water. Apply a little cold cream immediately after washing the hands and before they are entirely dry, rubbing it well into the skin. Doubtful.—Baldness is not incur |able.

Laughuu minrgled with the elink of punch cups as the twelve guests arose to toast their genial hos- tess, and to wish hor bon voyage on | her prospective trip to the continent. There was a tremor in her voice as | Mrs. ‘Thomas responded to the kindly wiches of her guests. Honeymoon House had in turn harbored four of the couples during the embarkation onto the sea of matrimony. Eeing childless herself Mrs. Smith took es pecial interest in young people who were making their own way in life. James Sutcliffe arose. “To the next couple who occupy Honeymoon House!” he fald. There was a hearty response and a burst of merriment as all eyes cen- '] tered on the speaker. Out of the laugh- | ter the host's voice urose. “It’'s up to you and Reta—you are | the only eligibles for the position,” he toasted with eyes that embraced a discomfited couple. A blank look came finto Reta El- flot's face as she glanced at Mr Thomas. “You know very well, Ted, that Jimmy Sutcliffe and I are far too busy in our individual pursuits to entertain the thought of matrimony.” She smiled half wistfully at big Jim, “Ycu £ee, Honeymoon House, preceded that of any of you. An interior decorator and an architect are apt to look upon the output of their brains as something |} infinitely beautiful. Jim and I love every nook and cranny in this house, | & bat it 18 not a necessity that we mar- | % ry—in order to enjoy it.” A shadow flitted into the eyes of the hostess. “I am sorry, in view of ycur fond- ' ness for the place, to tell you that | this may be your farewell visit to loneymoon House,” ehe sald. Mrs. Thomas continued without awaiting the protests which she knew | were on every lip. | The first couple | “Yes—it is a fact. to marry before my trip abroad is to | have it for a wedding present.” “What?" exclaimed Sutcliffe. are going to give it away?” Mrs. Thomas nodded. “For keeps?” questioned Reta. The hostess nodded more emphati cally. “Yes. To tell yon the truth—I am a bit tired of journeying into the mountains every year. I have decld- ed to give it to some of my friends who will appreciate its beauty, and who will take good care of it. I know at least three possible tenants, They will no doubt all jump at the offer.” An ominous silence fell upon the group. Honeymoon House held mem- orles of many happy yesterdays that were to be no part of the tomorrews. Unconsciously, Reta and Jim had sought each other’s eyes. A look of pain drew them into closer under standing. “Reta and I are responsible for all its beauty,” thought Jim. “It 18 ours,” thought Reta, and a tear felt strangely near her lashes, “Edith Thomas has no right to give it away!” She cast a resentful glance at her hostess. Mrs. Thomas caught the glance and its meaning. She laughingly retorted: “I know what is in your mind, Reta, but you have as good a chance of win- ning the house as anyone.” Reta's volce was not altogether steady as she answered: “That wouldn't do Jimmy any good, and ho loves the house as much as I do.” The host's voice, half laughing and half earnest, joined the discussion. “Under the trying circumstances why not make this a marriage of con- venlence. The house is, fortunately, of a rambling temperament. Jim might occupy the east ramble and Reta the west. Also the room intend- ed for a nursery could be converted into a second dining-room. That is,” he continued in rafllery, “providing you cannot agree to dine together.” “Ted!"” admonished Mrs. Thomas. “You “Can't you see that you are embar rassing our guests?” From out the merriment Jim's voice finally found itself. the strained muscles about his mouth nor the hardness of his tone as he ad- dressed Reta. “Well—Reta—how does Ted's strike you?” A breathless sllence followed Jim's abrupt proposal. A stirring of sym- pathy swept over the feminine ele- ment. Reta cast an indignant glance at Jim. Rising swiftly she left the room without & backward giance. The host's face fell as he watched the retreating figure. He turned apologetically toward Sutcliffe. “I am afraid we are in bad,” he sald. “It Is up to you to square us.” But Jim had not heard. Already he was striding toward the arbor whither Reta had taken her indignation. He put his arms about her and would not "t her go for all her fran- l tie struge “T comiz: oo gentimentally befora &' 16 crowd,” he told her gently, Expert, “Oh, yes, he's expert—expert in the wroug way,” said Scnator Pome- rene of a corrupt politician, “Such eXpertness reminds me of the man who said: ‘These girl typewriters are sertainly expert.
