' 'This only means, again, that thought creates. Tne destructive thoughts disintegrate and pull down. The constructive thoughts vivify and build up. "When woman shall have learnt enough of this enlightening science to know chat she is largely tne maker of her own beauty, when her mirror shall acquaint her that she is sallow or grey of hue, or what not —altogether %disfavcred I' —she will not then begin to account for it by asking herself:

"No. She will ask

" 'Have I been worrying over things that could not Jbe helped? Have I been ill-tempered about trines? Has envy or hatred got possession of me? Save I been jealous or malignant towards my neighbor? Have I had fears that things and people can hurt me?'
