THE STANDARD OF LONELINESS.
Something About the Bellies of Different
Races.

Various, says the London Standard, are
the opinions held by wide diversity of
races regarding their beauties, though 1t is
often difficult for people bred under
ano ther sky 10 share their enthusiasm.
The Circassian women, who have u sort Of
conventional reputation for loneliness, are
affirmed by those who know them best to
be far from worthy OF their celebrity.
Short legs, glaring red hair, faces
so long and narrow that their
heads seem to have been squeezed
between two boards and llattened, noses
out OF proportion TO the rest OF the feat
ures and complexion OF dull lcad-likc
hue, scarcely constitute beauty according
20 our standard. Tho Moors and the
runisan Jews regard Corpulcnce as abso-
lutely essential 10 beauty, and the inmates
OF rich mems hnrems are stuffed with
nutritious food, like Strasbourg geese, for
the market The Chinese poets sing OF
deiormcd feet as golden lilies" and the
rocking OF their women in attempting
TO walk as the waving of willow. "
Other races have equally odd ideas
OF what constitutes lovclinCss, for
they Improve" their persons by nattcn-
ing their forchcads, tattOoing their skin,
cutting of their fingers, filling their teeth
or dyeing them black, blue or tartan,
painting their bodies, Sitting their ears,
COMPRISING their waists, putting stones,
| bone or metal through their lips, cheeks
or cars, and in dozen other ways trying
TO enhance the poor prentice work OF ma
| turc. 4 Fcletah lady dyes her hands and
| feet with hcnnah, stains her teeth alter
nately blue, yellow and purple, one here
and there being lett OF It's natural color,

pcarance OF ilcshy shell over her chin.
a Chinese or Siamcsc lady cultiyatos

| her nose flat enough, or Persian beauty
hers high enough. On the northwest
coast OF America no rcproach Is more Bit
ter than for one Indian girl TO Tell another
| that "lOur mother was too lazy TO flat,en
your head" 1atiooing is almost uniyer-
| sal among half civilized or savage races;
in New Zealand the Maori women,
| before they begin 10 imbibe European
/ prcjudiccs, even tattoocd their lips, lest
they should have the rcproach OF being
rcd. Some races slit their ears until they
hang in loops on their shoulders. Others
insert huge rings and other ornaments
through the cartilage OF their noses. The
Louisiadc islanders regard the lid Of a sar-
dine box a. peculiarly neat piece Of jew
clry; and even European women have not
yet ceased TO suspend bits OF stone and
metals through the lobcs Of their cars,
/ There Is, in truth, no possibility OF arriv.
ing at any standard Of beauty.
