SECRET OF BEAUTY

GOMES FROM WITHIN A man who admits to be over 50, with the boyish features and the Vitality of a young man of 25, claims to be able to take 10 to 30 years off the life of almost every woman over 50. Seated in his London flat, his forearms bound with two serpents of gold, his long blade hair coiffured like a woman’s, the Rajah Lala Krishna Raphael Ram Singh made an impressive figure as ho described to a ‘ Sunday Chronicle ’ representative the “ miracles ” he has wrought. The walls of the little room were covered with photographs of beautiful women—the women whom the rajah says have lost 20 years and regained new youth and Jooks by his system. He pointed to the smiling portrait of a well-known London hostess. “ When she came to me her hair was grey and turning to silver,” said the Rajah. “ She placed herself in my hands,, and within a fortnight her hair had been restored to its youthful brown colour. “ To-day that woman looks and feels 20 years younger. “ This girl ” —he pointed to a studio photograph of a healthy young woman who looked about 30—“ came and told me that she had finished with life. “She was 70 and thought that there was nothing left for her but a few years of miserable old age and death. “Within a few months she had returned to the career of her youth, and was singing once more upon the concert platform.” The rajah waved his thin goldringed fingers as if in blessing. “ No woman who submits to ray system of diet, exercise, and mental control need ever grow old or be ngly,” he said. “ Beauty comes from within. There is no short cut to rejuvenation, and 1 do not possess an elixir of life. “ Gracefulness, gentleness, kindness, motherliness —those are the qualities I teach to women. A woman who possesses them must be young and appear young. “By a perfected system of Yogi, breath control, and by strict attention to a diet based on the simple products of the earth, every woman can cultivate the characteristics that will give her beauty.”
