How Achieve Beauty
- gV MME. HELENA PUfttNSTCIN
ONLY yesterday I was sitting at
my desk, wondering what I
should write to you. question
ing in my mind just what subject
would prove most suitable for the
day and the times and the season.
Today my mall contains a most
pathetic and ambitious letter. One
which supplies me with Ideas and
ambitions and most particularly
with a'subject for a series of arU
teiilhlt seems strange, very,
t$ J Bid lb. realize the great major,
lty of "women persist In thinking
en persist in thinking I am writing
always to the woman next door or
around the corner, anyone, any
where, but in the house and the
shoes they themselves occupy. I
cannot understand why to most of
you good looks, good grooming
and lasting youthfulness seem
possible only to the woman with
time and money at her disposal.
The letter I have Just mentioned
affected me ao greatly that I de
termined that I should bring to
your attention beauty not a dif
ficult, expensive, out-of-your
reach commodity, but a very
close, real, decidedly attainable
thing which you may have every
ingle one of you, In exactly the
degree you honestly desire it And
"desire," as I express Undoes not
mean a queer, unhealthy mixture
of yearning and envy and self
pity. It means determination,
courage, self-reliance and will
power.
As for the letter itself: the
writer, I judge, is about 35, mar
ried, and fairly well off, and with
four growing children! Her hand
writing shows me that she is well
educated, well-bred, and the tenor
of the letter tells me that she is
unhappy, aged beyond her years,
and facing a dark, hopeless fu
ture, from a good-looks angle.
Xhe letter opens this way:
"Dear Helena Rubinstein I sup
pose you'll think I'm an absolute
idiot, and knowing that it won't
do a bit of good, I'm going to
"pour out my soul to you. At
least, that will be of some relief
to me, and It won't hurt you any.
I'm 35 years old and old is right.
I've had four children, and in the
ten years of married life -1 have
watched everr door of ooportun
ity close to me. Now I'm hope
less. I look around at this farm
wliere we live and realise that: it
Is all the world I shall ever know.
That in the old. tired, baggaWd
laca mat looks Daca ai me iiom
-my mirror, I read the finale to. all
mv ambitions.
My dear child you aren'an
idiot. Of course, you're discour
aged .and : unhappy, and you've
l6ok44jo,)onK at the distances,
that you've grown far sighted, and
you cannot see the beauty of the
world that lies at your doorstep.
Even your mirror tells you un
truthts. It cannot tell you you
are old.' You know better than
that. And so do I. who am many
years your senior, and am youxg
today, as I shall be for a long
time yet.- ,
You have said-that you don't
expect me to be of any real help
to you. That's quite a challenge.
And before I take It up, let me
Impose just one condition.- Let
me challenge you to forget your
misery for Just two weeks. Let
me challenge you to laugh a dozen
times a day. Not foolish, sense
less, futile laughs, but real buoy,
ant, contagious laughs that come
right up from your very "In
nards." There's nothing to laugh
at? Don't be foolish, my dear.
What about a 35-year-old woman
calling herself old? What about
a woman with four blessed, bust
ling babies saying, she has nothing
to live for? What about a wom
an living in the midst of your
beautiful country, watching, (he
hillside turn . crimson and gold,
watching the wild asters add their
royal purple to the glowing pan
orama of color, watching the eter
nal miracle of life and loveliness
springing to completion and then
fading so that another spring may
be more beautiful? What about
such a woman denying the beauty
of life?-
Is it a bargain? You begin to
forget the seamy side of life and
I take up your challenge and help
you by showing you how to help
yourself. . Let's shake hands on
it then, M. J. B.. and see if -we
can't do something for you- in
spite of yourself.
