Beautiful Secrets of Beautiful

the methods most of us accept; and these
methods ore oil wrong; they "gild the

casual observer.
But there Ips a- way to be so young and
charming In spirit that the years creep

Is a secret of eternal youth and Effla
Shannon knows It.
After a quarter of a century on the
stage, Effle Shannon stands before us,
slender, vibrant with life, magnetic and
lovely, with the beauty of a clean-cut
cameo. Delicate, dainty Effle Shannon
has been a worker for twenty-five years.
Think of that, you little girls who fret
lest your days of toll cheat you of youth
and make you old before you have

In the close Intimacy of the dressing
room, Miss shannon is nbsoiuteiy iresn
and untouch by time, and yet she calmly
said: "I am glad I am not young any
more. Think of all the experience the
richness and fullness of life that I know,
I think how high my spirit has fed. Do
you think I'd give any of It any line on
my face and retrace the years, and have
a pretty mask with no background of
life and feeling?"
"Then to you, true beauty Is expression,

"Yes; true beauty is expression and

"Imagination means dreaming seeing

"And as the years pass, a woman bp-

Bo why should not a woman who culti

Don't you think that will Insure a beauti

mouth and a happy soul to Illuminate
the face?" asked the charming star
earnestly.
"f do, Indeed." I replied. "We all must
cultivate our gardens. But how about
uprooting the weeds fat for Instance?"
"Fat Is a noxious weed," laughed Miss
Shannon. "Girls must never get fat If
they want to be beautiful. People do eat

needs to see people to keep In touch with

Dead Weight or Wire?

the subject, "A Dead Weight or a Llvt

us all be live wires."

said;

What is Ideal
The Highest Type of Lovsr la at Once

for woman?

touch of sentiment and oven a misunder

Tho Ideal lover takes Into considera

temperament, and adapts himself to

Almost every woman, tho most ardent
and romantlo as well ns tho phlegmatic,
realizes at times 'the material element In

aids her In being his patient nurse In
hours of Illness and his stimulus In
times of despondency, and It Is that lack
of graver and moro patcrnnt clement In
man's love which detracts from Its Ideality
so often.
When ho does possess It man Is liable
to overdo tho mattor nnd to become the

to encourage her weaknesses and her
selfish whlnm.

The Ideal lover Is he who commands his
wlfo's or sweetheart's respect and admira
tion, togother with her lovo; who makes
her rcallxo thnt his standards of woman
hood and llfo are high, and that he ex
pects her to do her part toward maintain
ing them, and who la capable of drawlni
a fine line between devotion and servil
ity. Tho Ideal lover of cither sex Is not a
slave or a coward.
Thn moment thuso elements enter InW
a lovo Its standard Is lowered.
I once heard a wlfo say that she would
not llvo with a man who told her hi
thought another woman beautiful. Sht
felt that his lovo for her should blind
his eyes to tho beauty of all others. The
man loved lila wife, but whllo his llpi
wero silent on the subject of others'
charms his furtive glances of admira
tion often bespoko tho sentiments of hit
mind. That man's lovo was not Ideal,
since It lacked the courage to make hli
wlfo understand how shb belittled her
self tn his oyes.
Tho ideal lover does not' entertain hli
wlfo by expatiating on tho charms of
other women for hours, but no docs ex
press his respectful admiration on oc
casions. Ho strives to bring out the very bent
nnd noblest qualities In the woman whom
he has chosen for his llfo mate and to
old,, her dovelopln Into a porfoct woman
hood. Ho Is her frlond and her pro
tector as well as her lover and admirer.
He looks out for her best Interests, but
ho novcr forgets that sho has an Indi
viduality of her own which Is to bo res
pected and considered. She Is his mats
and his companion, not his chattel or hla
servant.
She In to bo advised nnd .guided, but
not commanded or coerced.
Tho hlgliest type of' lover realizes that
a woman has a spirit and u soul, aa well
as u body.
Tho man who hides a woman away and
tries to feep her from all association with
her kind and ull pleusurcs not directly
bestowed by him Ib not an Ideal lover,

I have known a man to plume himself
as a model husband because he gave his
abslstanca to a silly wlfotho mother of
his children who cbncelved an aspiration
for a theatrical career. She possessed no
atom of talent, and made herself only
the object ot rldlculo and pity to all ob
servers, while she left her husband a,
eood man, ot ample means and her chil
dren to tho euro of domestics.
Hud the w.oman been a great genius,

In order to be also hor Ideal lover. He
must possess appreciation of all her best

weaknesses, the courage to warn her
