Importance of Relaxation.
[By Ann Moresby.]
01930 BY MEA BERVICE, ING,
With older people it is different. A frown, laugh, a screwing up of the oyes or wrinkling of the brows, is often held for some time after the emotion which caused it has passed. But if one makes a constant habit of frowning, The power of relaxing is one of smiling, and screwing up the eyes, the chief secrets of retaining and holding the position indefinite- beauty and youth.
