SaPjsp women, of the annoying crows' feet
iraSfl1 and the other marks of time, signs

gray hairs ARE
HARKS OF DISTINCTION.
Tho professor in his latest dis
course on beaut offers but little
encouragement to women who seek
to conceal their ago by the use of
cosmetics and dyes long after they
should by nature have taken their
place in the ranks of Who aged and
felt proud of their wrinkled brows
ana their white tresses.
' The wrinkle of age is one that
all women who have fulfilled their
duties of wifehood and motherhood
should bo proud." remarks Pro
fessor La Tour.
"No greater medal ever shone
than that given the woman who has
grown old In the service of her
womanhood. Her gray hnlrs are
marks of distinction and each
strand that appears above her ven
erable head calls forth the venera
tion of others. A pot of rouge and
gallons of dye would not give her
the distinction that the hair turned
to white through tho rigors of her
existence, bestow upon her."
The matronly woman who at
tempts to prevent the ravages of
timo with cosmetics makes a sad
failure. She Is the Mrs. Maloprop
of her eex as far as beauty's dic
tates are concerned.
This deals with two of the three
classes of wrinkles to which wom
en are subject. Tho third class,
that of women who are subject to
crinkles because of worry or tho
premature development of the fea
tures, is the one on which the noted
beauty expert takes pity and to
them he offers an Invaluable fund
of advice.
"Some of the most beautiful and
lovable women I have met devel
oped wrinkles early," the professor
remarks In his latest beauty lecture.
"In fact it seemed a crime that
such women should see their love
liness fade and their beauty wans.
They arc like the rose that opens
in the morning In response to the
caress of the lightly falling dow and
In the noontime fades and withers
under the unkind glances of tho
torrid sun.
Such women must be aided by
experts, others lso the work of &
beauty specialist would fall.
That a woman of culture fades so
quickly and her beauty is short
lived is a matter of rgre: to most
men.
I hae seen thousands of exam-
-
pies of sucn unfortunate results of
tho advances of age. Who of us
has not seen the young woman,
beautiful, full of Igor, attracting
the attention of a scoro of lovers,
finally scorned because of the ap
pearance of some female' member
of her family.
MEN MEASURE BEAUTY
BY THE WRINKLES.
"It seems cruel sometimes that
men would accept such standard by
which to measure tho physical qual
ities of a loved one, but such la
ofton the case
"Men will gaze on the face of
their prospective mother-in-law
and find her countenance seared
with wrinkles. They then abandon
their suit of the daughter, although
they should know. foolish crea
tures, that a proper care of the face
would have prevented tho accumu
lation of such wrinkles."
That wrinkles are Inevitable, no
one can doubt. If we smile much,
frown much, cry much, think much,
all of these activities will display
themselves on tho human face. But
there is a way to remove them If
they aro captured in their Incipi
ency at the time they first ' make
their appearance.
All anatomists or students of
anatomy know that the layer of
skins and the fascia below are
tightly stretched about the human
skull. The facial covering of skin,
too. Is tightly stretched with tho
exception of the small accumulation
of fat that appears in tho cheeks.
1 EDITOR'S WRITINGS HAVE AROUSED HIS ENF.MIFn
Mr. Robert J. Collier, although
;SB a young man, is already tho head
joKS of an enormous publishing business
hBh and the creator of a powerful mag-
'.H azlne creator, because when ho
JH took charge of the weekly in 1898,
WW It was entirely different in charac-
H; ter. Mr, Collier began at once tno
SHH enterprising news and art features,
vgl concentrating at that timo on tho
jl Spanish War, and he also lntro-
ducod a literary quality which has
gradually worked into the paper's
EH present Intellectual treatment of
public affairs.
gH Mis qualities as a Journalist in-
elude an cxcoptlonally quick and
vivid sense for news, whether ex-
fl1 pressed in text or picture, a keen
Interest in, and careful knowledge
of, tho art of illustration; great
Hj courage; and a rare power to un-
derstand, uso and inspire men of
1 widely different gifts and natures.
Add to these traits much sheer
fl business ability, and you have his
makeup as a general publisher.
j His daring has been mado clear
l to the whole world in such strlk-
lng instances as the crusades in
which Town Topics, Patent Medi-
Hj Cine, and various undesirable pub-
He officials have been tho oppo
ents, and which have resulted In a
fine collection of lawsuits, which
Mr. Collier accepts with perfect
calm. Hlfl ability is shown in
oery Bingle department of his
complicated business, whether edi
torial, art, circulation, advertising
or mechanical. The demand for
young men of such unusual force
and personal drawing quality is
constant, of course, from tho out
sldo world, and a month seldom
passes without Mr. Collier's being
urged to tako part In some publlo
work qulto disconnected with his
business. Most of such requests he
feebj compelled to decline, but he
has nevertheless done a large part
of tho work for the Children's The
ater, tho Lincoln Farm memorial,
and various other altruistic enter
prises, national and local. He was
chosen among all the publishers In
the United States to present their
case when changes were contem
plated In the postal regulations,
because In addition to his Insight
ho has, to an unusual degree, the
power of compact and persuasive
statement, Without Indiscretion,
it may be added that Mr, Collier Is
MlkltUk
not violently Interested In business
for Its own sake. The money-making
side of It appeals to him only
because It is Inseparable from the
useful and sound conditions of
business. What reaches powerfully
his imagination Is the effect which
a great business may have on the
opinion of the country and the de
velopment of Its inhabitants. In
other words, ho views the publi
cation of more good books than
aro put out by any other firm In
the United Statc In exactly tho
eamo way alj ho views the activities
of his weekly; namely, as a branch
of education and public service. It
may fairly be said, therefore, that
the distinction which he has won
so early has a double foundation
tho very unusual degree of ability
of which ho 1s tho fortunate pos
sessor and the interesting purposes
for which that ability Is used.

rescue crew, who propel it with bi

The forehead Is particularly tightly
stretched .so that any wrinkling of
the brow leaves its mark Laughing
eyes, eyes with great expression,
always have wrinkles, commonly
called "crows' feet," about them.
On the contrary persons with ex-pro-slonless
eyes, men and women
who do not use their eyes In gesticu
lating and consequently who havo
blank expressions, seldom havo
wrinkles.
I am of course rather In favor of
wrinkles acquiree1 !r. that way and
were It not for the fact that theso
marks may be obliterated I would
rather admire them on some wom

fectually prevents or removes
wrinkles.
Tho long narrow lines that mark
the forehead may easily be cured

In removing the long furrow

of the skin of the forehead with a

the stretching tend to loosen the

ahsurd. Some creams will soften
the skin and render It moro pliable,
but to claim that the cosmetic Is a
"skin-food" Is to enter the realms
of tho ridiculous.
M ISSAGE RECOMMENDED
FOR CROWS' FEET.
Tho massage for crows' feet Is
rotary and much resomb.es that
used for the cross-lines, although It
is more Immediately effective.
Tho lines that form about the
mouth and those about the nose
generally caused by laughing or by
facial gesticulating are generally
moved by the general Increase of
fatty-tissue in that portion of the
face. W hlle most women In their
younger days appreciate such lines
that form only at the time they are
laughing and disappear with the re
laxation of the facial muscles, they
will learn In time that these lines
will gradually become natural and
will constantly show.
It is the same with women who
labor to develop dimples. The dim
ples arc all rUht at the time, hut
eventually they leave their mark
with the rent of the wrinkles.
All of which Is not Intended to
advise against having dimples, smil
ing, frowning, etc , when a person
feels like doing so. To frown or
smile is natural, but It Is also nat
ural that we guard against the phys
ical results of such actions.
Masage Is one of the many things
that must be used to guard against
such results. As tho athlete rubs
his muscles after cngaclng In a con;
test so that they may not Suffer
constriction, so a woman who ele
pends great lv on her facial beauty
and expression must frequently
m issagc her face so that it may bej
always muscularly rcjaxed.
