THINK YOU ARE A BEAUTY.

And You Will be One, is This Beau.ty Shop’s Theory. There is a beauty shop in London, where the beauty shop flourißheti even more than elsewhere, in which the patients are taught to think themselves belles. "It is marvellous/’ says the owner, who' is now in this country getting beauty bints, "to observe the influence of mind over matter. Women come in here looking ugly. Inside of a couple of hours they go out radiantly beautiful. “Our principle Is that a woman io greatly Influenced by her mind. If U woman suspects that something is wrong with her appearance it shows in her face. Her mouth droops and her brow lies in wrinkles. “Now, working the other way, if you tell a woman that she is looking her best, if you compliment her upon her gowns, you 1 please her. Her mind is at ease and she begins to look pretty. “At our beauty shop we treat the appearance through the mind. It Is a branch of the faith treatment The woman who says she is well and thinks she is well will have much better health than the one who labors under the belief that she is ill. So with the looks. “Our shop was in reality started by an Englishman now dead. He was an apostle of beauty and when he came to America the first thing that impressed him was the beauty of the American women. “ ‘What makes the women so pretty?’ he asked. ‘lt isn’t that they are so classic, or so perfectly formed, or so ideal In any other external respect. What, then, is It that gives them such chic?’ “Then he answered the question for himself. He said:

“‘lt is their training. They are taught in childhood that they are beauties. They are brought up to think themselves belles. When grown the American woman acts as though she were a professional beauty, and the very fact that she carries herself like a belle makes her ;wice as good to look upon.’ "This theory gradually crept into our beauty shop. One of our latest triumphs is an American woman. Her one good feature is a pretty mouth. “ *You are prettiest when you smile,’ we said to her the first day she called. "Then she smiled brightly, and we asked her to smile again. We have succeeded in coaxing her into a frame of mind where the smile is habitual. “Of course we treat the smile. We take her mouth and train it upward at the corners. This is quite a simple matter. “Sit down in front of the glass and practise upon your mouth. Smile and you will see the corners lift themselves a little. Smile again and see your lips curl. Lift the corners of your mouth and pinch them slightly. In a little while your smile will be bright and curved. Your upper lip will curve upward in a Cupid bow. "Then be careful of your teeth. It is impossible for a face to be wholly bad looking when the teeth are nice. “In our shop we believe that women are influenced by the thought that they are beauties. A really pretty brunette called upon us one day lost spring. Her eyes were deep and lovely, her features were regular; she bad the makings of a beauty, but unfortunately she had a bad skin. “This is what we taught her —the maxims may be useful to the woman whose skin is poor: “Tranquillize your mind. An upset mind makes an upset digestion. “Don’t put on too much makeup; it shows on a bad skin. Make your mind easy, let your skin rest, eat easily digested foods and note the difference in your complexion in a few days. “Try to think that your skin looks nice. Endeavor if possible to let the rest of your face make up for the deficiency in your skin. For one thing, let your smile be sweet. Let your eyes sparkle. Bring out the colors of your eyes and your hair, and it is doubtful if folks will see that your skin is not quite all it should be. “Don’t hold your head too stifly. Don’t carry your head upon your shoulders, but let it turn just a little, so as to make your face more picturesque.

“Study the pretty side of your face and try and turn it to the audience. Don’t give people a square look at your countenance. Let them see only the pretty side of it. “Learn the small personal charms. Ifoyou think you are ugly try to bring out your best points. An otherwise homely woman may have a pretty hand. It should be her aim to mako it plump and attractive. A well kept hand, no matter what its size, is wonderfully charming. “Dress yourself carefully In tbs morning, taking plenty of time to groom. When you go forth carry yourself proudly. Catch glimpses of yourself In the mirrors as you pass, and as you see yourself you can say. ‘I am looking my best today.’ "The spirit of beauty will grow upon you. You will soon find people telling you bow well you look. It la worth trying. “There are ugly faced girla who paw for beautlea simply on account of the way they carry themselves. Garry yourself well and you will soon see the great power of mind over matter.**

A VERY "YOUNG CASE.

J - A young couple just out of childhobd in' a garden, he sitting on a rustic bench, she lounging in a hammock. The flowers are in bloom, the air is balmy, the sky a beautiful blue —just the surroundings for flirting. Flirting is not a good word, especially in the case of a man. but there Is d distinction between it and courting, ft is a lighter grade of the same article, jhst as claret differs from burgundy. "Do you know/’ he said, “that I’ve had some success lately in mind reading?’’ “Well, last evening I was calling at the Harrisonß, and we all got to talking about mind reading. It was proposed that we each in turn try what we could do. When it came my turn I made some experiments with Edith —” He paused and looked at her quizzically. “Why do you look surprised?” “! didn’t know she had any mind to read.’’ "H’m! She’s very bright. I told her just what she was thinking about.” “I suppose it was something deep?” "t>h, no! Nothing of importance. Then I—” “What was it?” There was a battle of words. He strove to avoid telling her, but eventually yielded. “She was thinking of you.” “And do you consider me ‘nothing of importance?’ ” “I mean —I mean —I didn’t mean— What I intended —” “And was Edith thinking that I am nothing of importance?” “She didn’t say anything about that.” "But If you were reading her mind you must have known what she thought about me.’’ He scratched his head, then stumbled on: “Well, you see, it was like this: I was thinking about you, and, your being on my mind, maybe it was a case of transference of thought.” This was placating. A suspicion of a pleased smile stole over her lips. She didn’t speak again for a few minutes, and when she did her tone was milder. • “What were you .thinking about me?” “Oh, I don’t know. Suppose I try to mind read you?’’ “Very well.” Presently he said: “Somehow or other I feel —I think —I am impressed with the presence of a tall young man with a long neck and spindle legs. He wears glasses and has a very good opinion of himself. He’s Sam Collamore. You’re thinking about him.” “That’s not of Mr. Collamore. And I wasn’t thinking about him at all. I was thinking about you.” This was spoken with a bit of sharpness. “Do you mean that I look like Sam?”

“It’s not very polite in you to speak so of a friend of mine.’’ “You said Edith Harrison had no mind.” “And she hasn’t. But Mr. Collamore has. and he’s a fine young man. So, there! Go on mind reading, but leave out Mr. Collamore.” He resumed his position again, covering his eyes. “I see myself—myself as you see me—a. person easily deceived —just the man for a girl to make a fool of. You are thinking that' you will use me this summer, just as you used Billy Perkins last summer and Tom —” “Please drop the personalities.” “Well, that’s all. Suppose you try it on me." She placed her round white hand, with taper fingers, over her eyes in a becoming fashion and said: “You are not thinking of anybody —that is, anybody but yourself. You are thinking how when your vacation comes you go up to the ladies and find a new girl who will be silly enough to trust you implicitly—” “What’ll you be doing all that time?" “Don’t break the spell. I’m mind reading. I’m telling you what your’e thinking about. And you’ll leave her, come back here and devote yourself to—” ■ ■ ■ . “Edith Harrison?” “Do you suppose that I care how devoted you are to Edith Harrison?’* And she snapped hgy fingers viciously. “Certainly not! It is the new girl up at the lakes who was silly enough to trust me that I am speaking of." "I’ll go on with the mind reading if you like. I come back here and devote myself to a girl who doesn't care how devoted I api to another girl at the same time, and—” “I didn't say that. I —" She stopped short. “You?" “How ridiculous!" "The scene changes," he went on presently. “I’m talking about what you’re thinking about, remember. Finally it all comes out that I don’t care a rap about any of these glrjs, except one, and she doesn’t care a rap about me. But—" “Which one?*’ - He described the girl in the hammock. She listened with growing pleasure as he mentioned her .different features, prefixing “beautiful'’ to all of them till he came to her hair. “My hair Isn’t auburn. It’s—” “By Jove! There’s the clock striking 10. I'm off for practice with the team. Good-by! See you vlater." But be didn’t He saw another girL —Anna Bentley.

RAISING DWARF APPLES.

Borne Interesting Experiments Being Made in New York. G. T. Powell, of Columbia county, N. Y., is conducting some interesting experiments on the value of dwart apple trees in business orchards? says the American Cultivator. It Is the idea of Mr. Powell that trees of a low habit of growth will be required more and more, because of the need of convenience for spraying and harvesting. The scale insects make it almost impossible to thoroughly treat large trees, and the cost of labor makes a saving at harvesting time of great importance. Two styles of dwarf trees are under trial. The socalled “Paradise” is very dwarf and is short lived. The “Doucin” stock is half dwarf, making trees 16 to 18 feet high, and proinises gopd results in commercial orcharding. The trees are planted two or three Inches below the union of slock and top. In Mr. Powell’s orchard the trees of “Paradise” stock are set as fillers between those of the larger dwarf kind. The rows, in the orchard are 20 feet apart, and the trees 10 in a row. The wide spaces between thp rows allow plenty of room for cultivation by horse power, while the trees in the rows will be thinned out as soon as they become crowded. The dwarf trees give fruit in a few years from planting, and the amount gradually increases. The small dwarf kind lasts six to eight years, and the semidwarfs for about 20 years. For dwarf trees the Spltzenberg, Jonathan, McIntosh are found successful. They produce fruit of very fine appearance and quality, suitable for packing in boxes for the choicest trade. For the half dwarfs, the Northern Spy, Roxbury russet, Twenty-ounce, Astrachan Baldwin and greening are satisfactory. The dwarf trees must receive good culture, with plenty of plant food, and careful cultivation. The soil is plowed and harrowed in the spring, and is kept in a cover crop of clover during the summer. Scale and ither insects are easily treated in the dwarf orchards. The idea appears so promising to Mr. Powell that he is pruning his large trees on the dwarf plan, cutting back the tops the standard trees, in order to cause them to spread out and to remove the high .parts of the tree, which make so much difficulty in spraying old trees.

Fences For Hog Pastures.

Great changes have taken place in the various fences employed for enclosing bogs. The rail, board and barbed-wire fences have all given way until now woven fences are almost exclusively used. The best and cheapest fence for hog enclosure is a combination of the woven and barb wire A barb wire below to prevent their rooting under and a couple above to prevent their jumping over is essential. All barb wires must be extremely tight for a loose barb wire does not hold hogs in check. The woven .wire that is used is the 26-inch ribbon, says Farm, Stock and Home. The nature of the ribbon employed is important. Heavy cable wires are necessary for two reasons: First, they do not rust so easily and second, they are strong enough to stretch tightly and to resist onslaughts of heavy brood sows or boars. The upright wires that form the mesh should be close together and well attached to the cable wires to prevent slipping. This will prevent little pigs from getting through thd fence and will also aid in “heading in” strong pigs that make a straight rush at a fence. Many think most highly of the diagonal mesh. Such an arrangement produces the strongest fences and if heavy wire is used will hold pigs without so much slipping as where the square mesh is used. Strong wires and close meshes are essentials in a gold woven-wire fence. By using a ribbon 26 to 32 inches in width with a barb wire below and a couple above a cheaper and better hog fence is produred than when an all woven-wire fence is used. If the fence is for all sorts of stick, then such a fence would be objectionable. For hogs a rigid fence is best whether for permanent or temporary fencing, and has also given excellent results in fencing corn fields, a purpose for which many will be used this fall.

Fine Hay For the Sheep.

Second crop hay, If permitted to get too ripe before It Is cut, becomes unpalatable and woody. For that reason many do not value it for sheep feeding. It must be remembered, however, that first crop hay may get woody too, and that It does not contain such, a vast amount of the especially desirable fine growth as does second crop says Farm, Stock and Home. In an experiment recently conducted, first crop hay was fed against second crop to breeding ewes. About l-10th more of the first crop hay waß fed, and yet this lot made only very small* gain. Those fed on seoond crop made a large gain. The bunch fed first crop hay rejected considerable because It was coarse, which was not true of the other bunch. It waa estimated that the Becond crop was worth about one-fourth .more for sheep feeding.
