Rice was a different woman. She arrayed herself in the latest fashions, or the nearest approach to them that could be reached by a native tailor working on her back verandah with the guidance of the fashion plates in ladies' journals. Her face thickly coated with most of the creams, powders, and complexion beautifiers on the market, she swathed her head in a thick veil thrown over her sun-hat.

But of a courseness you might put in it your nose beautifiers if you wish, and perfume them." "Nose beautifiers he means handkerchiefs," explained Ikey. "It's a bargain only three dollars." "I'll take it," spoke Thad. "I know a girl I can give it to. No objection to putting a powder puff in it; is there, Hashmi?" "Of a surely, no."

I don't dye my hair, nor use oils for my hands one must draw the line somewhere. But the other matters you must learn to apply." Jenny listened in silent amazement. She had never realised till that moment what an artificial flower her young mistress was. Her own cosmetics were soap and water; and she was divided between disgust and admiration at the number of Mrs Jane's beautifiers.

I do not think our language has a well deep enough to express what I felt in that first glimpse. But the human faces are sadly changed. Poverty and care, I find, are not beautifiers.

Happiness and contentment are more certain beautifiers than the most powerful cosmetics, and under the combined effects of both Maude was greatly improved.

I want to return to Nice, the longer I stay here, the longer my departure for Rome is delayed. I spend my time in complaining; my aunt says I am crazy. I laugh, and so does she. Life is full of interest. Monday, November 22nd, 1875. We went to my beautifiers, and also to B 's. To-morrow we shall decide upon the carriages. Then I went to see B , with whom I always keep up a correspondence.

He treated his blond ringlets assiduously from the stock of pomades; he was as fastidious about his fingernails as we might expect one to be in an environment of manicure implements and nail beautifiers; it was his privilege to make free with the varied assortment of perfumes a privilege he forewent in no degree; his taste in tooth-powders was widely respected; and in moments of leisure, while he leaned upon a showcase awaiting custom, he was wont to draw a slender comb from an upper waistcoat pocket and pass it delicately through his small but perfect mustache.
