They say It helps to keep their mus

Some women seem to think If they
undertake to Improve their personal
appearance they will not have time
during the twenty-four hours to do
anything else. This may bo tru lf
they intend to set beauty upon a
throne and live for no other object
than its worship and attainment.
As a mutter of fact, one hour n
day Is all that Is necessary for the
time tpent systemat
ically. The hour before
retiring Is the best to
urb for beautifying.
A bath at night, a
few mlnuteo care of the fingernails,
a little brushing of the hair and a
little massage of the face with a
proper skin food and, if the face be
dry or rough, leaving It on until
morning, can all be accomplished in
less than an hour.
In choosing exeriVnes, authorities
agree that one should consider care
fully Just what muscleo really need
xerclse. Unused muscles grow flab
by and excess flesh forms on parts of
the body not exercised.
Anyone, upon awaking In the
morning, can Imitate the cat and the
healthy child by yawning and
stretching. I have heard It said that
a good stretch and a yawn constitute
nature's gymnasium. Stretch in
crery way possible. Stretching up
lifts and expands the chest and wak
ens the internal organs to new life.
Walk to the bath room on your
bands and feet. Walk for another
week with bent knees. Then try an
other week to walk without bending
your knees.'
Of course, I do not mean that you
should perform these feats In pub
lic. To walk to business In the man
ner described might attract more at
tention than the average beauty cul
turist would enjoy. As an exercise,
It brings about good results. Try St.
A good abdominal exercise is to lie
supine, ralBe the legs, bring them to
the chest, straighten them and then
bring them level with the body
again.
Shadow boxing, such as Is Indulged
la by many pugilists, is excellent. I
know two women, room-mates, who
go to business every day but Instead
In. stretching, if you want to ex
orcise the back, raise the head, arms
and legs as high as possible and hold
them so for n few moment i -wh.l
stretching. If you are Inclined to
nave u uuubie cum you huouhi re
i.iove the pillow and raise the head
till the chin touches the chest fif
iocii lo twrn'y-flve times. It will be
necessary, however, lo persist lu this
exercise some time If any lasting
bun-lit Is lo Lh obtained.
Don't think you are too o'd to ex
ercise. Anyone between twelve and
iixty yeurs of iko can bcwl, play
golf, swli.i, walk, play tennis and
ride horseback providing they are In
ordinary health and enjoy Buch
amusements.
Deep breathing la eRsentlal both
for beauty nnd htulMi. It is during
fast walking, running, athletics,
gymnastics, swimming, outdoor
games and deep breathing exercises
that the upper diameter of the chest
is brought Into vigorous action. It
naturally follows that tight clothing
and especially tight corsets retard
chest development. The very beBt
chest developer is deep breathing.
Have you ever noticed the large
girth of chest of running athletes?
Doubtless the swing of the arms as
sists, somewhat, but primarily the
development Is due to deep, abdom
inal breathing.
Sing even If you can't sing. Make
a Jo: ful noise. Let children sing
shout. It is good for the lungs.
Don't be afraid to . laugh. Laugh
loud and heartily whenever you have
a chance, regardless of conventions.
Laughter Is nature's device for ex
ercising the internal orcans. Laugh
ter makes the eyea bright, increases
perspiration and expands the chest.
Even talking is good exercise and
some doctors claim that muscle talk
ing prolongs life.
Do not forget that as long aa a
woman has good health she will
have beauty and, by hygienic living,
my retHln that beauty as long as sh
lives. I heard yesterday cf a woman i
of sixty who live! In a southern state
nnd had been under the care of a
bpauty specialist In New York ever)
since she was twenty, years old. At i
sixty she has a complexion and gen
eral appearance that many young
girls would envy. Sh claims that
she has never expended a great sum
of money but that what she has used
In the way of creams, shampoos,
cosmetics and medications have all
beeii properly prescribed for her spe
cific case, an l used according to ex
port instruction. -
As an opposite case I must cite
that one of my correspondents who
writes that she has been using a cer
tain kind of prepared wax for her
face, and thinks it Is beneficial be
cause for the time being it greatly
Improves her appearance.
I looked up that particular prepa
ration In a government book and
found It contained just what its
name implied, a poison which, soon
er or later, will bo affect that young

woman's skin as to completely ruin
her complexion and make her look
aged years before her time.
Another instance recently came to
my attention when a woman from a
small town not far from Los An
peles started on a trip to an eastern
specialist to have her upper lip re
paired after it had been terribly dis
figured by a traveling beauty doctor.
He had guaranteed to remove a su
perfluous growth of hair and had
charged her three dollars for the op
eration. It resulted In her Hp being
burnt and spotted like a guinea pig.
The roots of the hair are still there
and the white spots make them look
worse than ever. Besides the price
of her ticket east it will cost that
woman at least a hundred dollars for
the repair of the damage caused by
the unskilled treatment.
The greatest beauties of the world
have been at their tentth at from
forty to-Hfty years - of age. Some
women look old at thirty and others
appear young at sixty. Ideal beauty
must have symmetry, proportion,
curvature, color and expression. A
beautiful woman Is a healthy woman
and a healthy woman is the perfec
tion of bodily organization, intellec
tual energy, social activity and moral
power. She is free from pain tnd
discordance of mind. The moral,
therefore is:
Guard your health, cultivate beau
ty as you would a flower gr.rdcn, giv
ing It scientific care and projection
and above all things, keep cheerful;
don't worry; laugh all you can and
never encourage anger and discon
tent. They say free advice Is not
worth anything but in this respect
I think you will find mine valuable.
