When it tells her"thatshe is looking well, that her back hair is be- comingly arranged, and that she is really very good to look at, she may go upon her way, confident and well poised, serene in the knowledge that although beauty may be only skin deep, it is a very comforting posses- sion. On the other hand, whenfriend mir- ror declares that her face is showing faint lines, that her skin is losing the firm contour and tints of youth, and that she is rapidly assuming some- thing suspiciously resembling`a double chin, she knows she must proceed at once to take the necessary steps to check the ravages of time. Good looks are so great an asset to a woman that the time which she spends on their preservation should no more be regarded as wasted than the time devoted to the care of her teeth or bodily health. A smooth healthy skin, clear corn plexion, shining hair and well -kept hands bestow upon their possessor a certain confidence and ease and most certainly add much to her happiness and contentment. These attributes to beauty• are. within the reach of every womae who is willing to work a bit to secure them; therefore, if your mirror tells you that old Father Time is beginning to adorn your face with his telltale lines, you will very wisely prepare to do battle for your good looks. The city woman, with time on her hands, will go to a reliable beauty specialist, where she will receive a treatment that will bring back the glow of youth to her cheeks, soften her skin and brighten . her eyes.
