Treatment OF the Several Types
OF Red Hair - The Use OF
Colors.
Ais oskley's 'Besuty IN Dress"
Until very lately the red haired class
has been in modern times only admired
by artists. though in olden days in Ven
ice dark haired ladies' used to dye their
hair red to initiate their more fortunate
sisters, who were born thus decorated.
To-day, IN Venice, one ees sometimes
the red haired Italian with green or gray
eyes, but more often one finds them in
still more northern parts Of Italy, and
they are often admired.
blue customarly, and this is the one
color that should lever approach it ,
There are several types OF n red
haired and each requires q different
treatment" Red hair with blue eyes
must be differently managed from red
hair with gray or green or brown eyes
Very often blue eyes, which are not so
fortunate az other colors with red hair,
may be neutralized by the color OF the
gown: but as soon as blue il introduced
into the dress the blue eyes count for
twice their value and form too strong q
contrast with the hair.
To assure yourself of this TACT in col
or, take q fabric upon which r red,
blue and green spots or figures; fasten
upon it q blue ribbon, and you will at
once see the blue spot more prominent
ly than the red or green; fasten a green
ribbon upon it and your eye at once
selects the green spots; with q red RIB
bon the red spots tell.
Many blue eyes are Of a transparent
quality, easily rejecting other cslors. A
green dress will Immediately impart
some OF its.own tone to the transparent
blue eye, and thus it win to all intents
and purposes cease to be blue. The
green must by no neal be light, for q
pale green is q very unfortunate color
with really red hair, while the deep reds
and yellows are very harmonious with
it. One might set down the possibili'
ties and impossibilities for the red hair
ed type as follows, these being princi-
pies that apply to the entire class OF the
red haired, whether OF n variation or
another:

There is a color to be used with red
hair that requires almost an artist to use
it, when it may be made very effective.
Ii should be in small quantities and
contrasted with other tones; it is a pale,
yellowish pink. All pinks approaching
a violet shade are painful with red hair,
but especially where the eyes are brown
and the complexion OF that shell-like
beauty that often accompanies this type.
Such a pink as we have spoken OF, used
as a lining to a dull, dark amber, almost
brown such as one may find in velvet,
or a red that is as red as a dark red
hollybock, seems to repeat, as with q
deeper note in octave, the fair bloom Of
the complexion.
The blue eyed women OF this type do
we'll to wear chiefly the green's, stone
gray and yellows, the creamy white and
the black. This gives. them sufficient
range, and they cannot improve upon
il; MOI for ornaments upon amber, gold,
pearls and yellowish lace. The gray
and ~green-eyed may venture further
still, taking besides the browns and pur-
plies; but the fortunate brown-eyed may
run the whole gsmut here set down
from white to black, though all the COL
ors allotted to them in the foregoing
list, though they will find nothing bet
ter than the dark reds and ambers.
The most difficult variation OF the red
haired type 10 dress is the sandy haired,
With light eye Iashes. 1t often repre-
seuts our most intelligent and quick
witted women. 1t is hardly ever accom-
panied with d q complexion, but often
by a delicate form Of the bony structure
OF the face, by fine teeth and delicate
hands and figure.
Nothing is 80 good as black and white
for this style-always a creamy white
and black, either solid or transparent;
The ornaments should he amber, gold
or let; no color can be as good with this
type as black or white. White lace or
black lace afford all the opportunity for
the effect OF dressiness, and the white OF
a creamy cashmere or a cambria, tulle
or muslin can give sufficient variety OF
costume, with the black Of velvet, oil
transparent grenadine or OF Cashmere
and silk. There need be no complaint
OF sameness.
