No matter what has hap pened or how badly you feel, do something else, smash something, do anything, but don't cry. I can never forget the lesson taught me when I was a little girl by .ono of tho reigning beauties of Paris. Bhe was almost at the end of her beauty, too, but she had a little daughter of about my age whom you would remember, 'if I should mention her name. I wanted to see this famous beauty at close range, and persuaded a . milliner's girl to let me deliver a' hat for her at the beauty's house. Some hitter disappointment had made tho beauty's little daughter burst Into tears. Her mother was furious, shook her and finally spank ed her until at last sho Btoppod the , tears "Do you want to bo a homely llttlo glrlt" the mother demanded. "Do you want to spoil your eyesT" "But mother," tho girl pleaded. "when I feel so badly I Just havo to cry or else hurt something." and she attempt ed to kick a kitten that was playing about To my astonish ment the mother necessary, pleco ot gauzo nipped in boric water -If put on taen eye. said sho preferred that her daugh ter should kill the llttlo animal rath er than dim the future sparkle of hor eyes by tears. No woman can afford to cry and yet most all of us do it. I am suro I don't know whrt unless It is be cause we enjoy it. Men almost never cry and yet thej can well afford to for man, fortunate crea ture, is not afflicted with the compli cated, difficult and In tho end un successful task of being boautltu. To bo beautiful tho eyo should be long and deep, with a large orbit, long lashes and silky. These are the classlo laws. Thoy attributed moro energy and ardor to black eyes, moro of sweetness and dreaminess to blue eyes, etc The brilliancy of the eye has much to do with its beauty. Some Jap anese eyes, though ill-formed, are most expressive on account ot their brightness. Spanish and Circassian women, whose eyes are tapering, too close to the nose, are still consid ered beautiful on account ot their brilliancy. It is the pupil, that little clrdo through which the rays ot light pass which gives vivacity and brilliancy to the eye. The most common method ot heightening the effect ot the eye Is to blacken the eye-lashes, but I warn you against this prac tice which is most harmful and de stroys tho barmony ol tne eye. Sulphur ot antimony is used for this purpose, but should bo avoided. An other method, even moro dangerous, is to increase the brilliancy ot tho pupil by putting a few drops ot co caine into the oye. It dilates tho pupil, but Is a baneful habit. Tho toilet for tho eyes is separ ate from that for tho face. They should not be touched with tho towel. They must ahove all not come Into contact with toilet waters, soap or other toilet accessories. Hygiene is the main consideration whore tho eyet are concerned. To wash tho eyes, use a special bit of cotton, aaeptlclsed, and then dipped Into boiled water or rose water. Pass the cotton lightly over the eye-lids and tho corners of the orbit Rose water is a real specific for tired eyes. Camomile water Ib also rec ommended. But you must be care ful that these waters are pure and filtered. It the eyes are red or irritated, wasn thorn frequently in boric water (a teaspoonful of boric acid to a glass of water). Use this water tepid, and, It necessary, put a piece ot gause dipped in the water oh each eye. Tlo this on with a bandage and keep It on for some time.

I alBo advise that when out walking that you wear yellowish maroon veils which protect and rest the eye. If your eyes feel tired consult an oculist and get glasses which your eyes require. I want to recommend for inflam mation ot the lids washing the eyes two it three times a day with the following solution, dipping bits of cotton into this solution and rub bing lightly over the eyes: Boiled dlstlllod water, 1 quart Cyanide of hydriodato 1 gramme.
