THINK OF YOUR BLESSINGS

. ; —- Beldom Indeed Do Wrinkles Appeal When Mind Is Filled With Calm and Peaceful Thoughts.

Keep your mind calm and peaceful and no wrinkles will cojne to destroy your beauty. Think pleasant thoughts. Do not let little Incidents excite oi upset you. Do not leave for an ap pointment so late that you must hur ry. Keep yourself happy; After all, nothing does so much foi a woman’s looks as plain happiness, and not only for her looks, bdt for her whole health. You can always tell the woman whose mind is sit peace. She never has indigestion or stomach trouble, for both are born £>f nerves She never has the anxious, startled look, which is the trademark of the average New York woman, It really is a difficult task for the woman who has always given in to nerves, to take a firm hold on herself and to keep calm. ‘ At first, it may seem an Impossibility. Begin at first by shutting off unpleasant_thoughts whenever you find them at w T ork in your mind. Resolutely turn them out by replacing them with happy -fhoughts. ’ After a while it will become a habit and harassing ideas will cease to torment you. Above all, smile. Even If it Is only a mask at first, smile fnd soon you will find that the very effort to smile has impressed a smile on ypur brain and you will make It a custom -to smile instead of to frown at all kinds of news. Let “smile and be beautiful” become your motto. — Pittsburgh Dispatch.
