Russell's face, Because she insists on that freedom of soul and body which only space and quiet can give. Miss Russell's apart- ment gives one first of all the feeling of space to breathe in, to move in and to think in, There are no superfluous hangings, Dear otra, Ayer: CCORDING to Tillian Russell's wecret—how to keep young and beautiful—one must have money enough to keep a maid, to rent a place for a gymnasium and furnish it, besides having plenty of time. Time !s money to all the poor. Is there no cheaper RECIPE AND BEAUTY. Like Lillian Russell. As for massage, I admit it will do much, but scrupulous cleanliness—a hot Dath and soap scrub at night, a cold sponge in the morning; sleep—long hours of refreshing sleep dn a well-ventilated uncrowded room, simple food—simple, wholesome lives with diversions that never deteriorate into dissipation, and, Grst, last and all the time, charity, love and a real desire, made effective by real work, toward making the world happler by our being in it, will keep us from drooping lnes, wrinkied brows and from ever growing old or ugly. Simplicity, silence, sleep and unselfish- ness, a good deal of each, with a gen- erous allowance of soap and water, all way for us poorer folks to retain our youth and beauty? I am sure I would ‘work real hard to do it, but have neither time nor money. G. R. K. ‘This letter voices the sentiments of many women. ‘Miss Lillian Russell js a unique ex- ample of the preservation of positively girlish and radiant beauty up to the present, when by rights she should etill De.beautiful, but not a rosebud, for Miss Ruseel, isl in truth, just in the golden prime of womanhood, The system ehe has found to offset the wear and tear of her arduous Ife 1s not required hy the average woman in order to look her prettlest or to keep her youth. No woman, if she be physically well, ghould look old until she feels old. "Phis doesn't mean that the women who goes around declaring she feels young while her face looks like battle, murder and fury tells the truth. 1M tell you what makes us olf and robs us of our good looks before our time—dissipation, by which I mean eat- ing improper food as well as drinking stomach-destroying liquors—late hours, excesses of every icind. ‘A perturbed epirit is the greatest of wrinkle makers. Giving wey to anger will destroy every line of youth. Just watch a child's face when it ts enraged if you wish to see the demon Anger aotively at work in the hateful Unes even a baby face will take on. Jealousy and envy will rob @ woman of the youthful oval of her face. Giving way to’ revenge will develop the ugliest neck ever a woman had to bear up under during the latter part of her life. If you don't believe me, watch some woman of five and forty when she gets mm: 1@ you ever see anything more hid- @ous than the lines under her chin formed by her snapping her jaws to- gether when she says “I'll got even with you or know the reason why,” or words to that effect. Fou cannot get old in looks while you keep young and gentle and kind in your heart. ‘The face that does not reflect either anger, envy or all uncharitableness can- not grow ugly. You do not sow thistles and reap pomegranates, ®implicity of living is another great factor in warding off age. Miss Russell knows this and practises it, and it does not take a “gym"' or a masseuse to follow in her lead on this point.

Disowned, ICHARD DEVINE, tall, athletic and ‘twenty-two, strode away from his mother's home, heartbroken and dazed. For his departure was the price of her peace, her happiness. In her girlhood Ellinore Devine had met and married Lord Francis Bellasis, @ notorious profig ‘Through her father's intervention the young couple had been divorced before the birth of thar only gon, and the broken-hearted girl had been wedded to Gir Richard De- vine, the millionaire shipowner, Lady Ellinor had sought to placate her second husband by naming her boy after him; but lr Richard hed always hated his stepson, and had taken no Pains to conceal his hatred. On the afternoon of May 8, 1827, when this story commences, a crisis had ar- rived. Young Richard had just re- turned to England from « year’s travel on the Continent in time to interrupt a violent dispute between his mother and his etepfather. He had atriven to de. fend his mother against the old man's fury, whereat Sir Richard hed turned terloper there, and had ordered him from the house, saying if the boy dared return, or in any way claim relation- ship to the Devines, his mother should be turned into the street. To save her young Richard Devine had accepted the bitter terms and now stood alone in the world, his back turned on all he held dear, penniless, without profession, without prospects, He had, for amusement, done odd work, as @ boy, about his father's ehip- yards, and the idea mow occurred to him to seek employment from some London shipbuilder. Meantime, within the house, Bir Rich- ard continued to storm at his wife, vow- ing to disinherit Richard and leave his whole fortune to his nephew, young Maurice Frere. In the middle of this tirade a blood vessel burst in the old man’s brain and he fell dead, Young Richard knew nothing of all this, but plodded hopelessly along the road to London.

A dead body lay upo@ its face in the heather; beside it was a heavy riding whip etained at the handle with blood, and an open pocket- book, Rivhard took up the book and reud, in gold letters, on the cover, “Lord Bellasis." ‘Tne unhappy young man knelt down benlde the body and raised it.
