An artists rule as TO color is; Choose
carefully only those tints Of which du-
plicate may be found in the hair, the eyes
or the complexion. A woman with blue
gray eyes and thin, neutral tinted COM
plexion is never more becomingly dressed
than in the blue shades in which gray is
mixed, for in these compilations there is a
certain delicate blueness. A brunette is
never so exquisite as in cream color, for
she has reproduced the tinting Of her skin
in her dress. Put the same dress on col
orless blond and she will be far from
charming, while in gray she would be
quite the reverse. The reason is plain-in
the blOnd's sallowness there are tints Of
gray and in the dark woman's pallor there
are always yellowish tones, the same as
predominate in the cream colored dress
Women who have rather ford complex
ions look well in various shades of plum
and heliotrope, also in certain shades of
dove gray, for to a trained eye this color
has a tinge of pink which harmonizes
with the flesh Of the face Blends look
fairer and younger in dead black, like that
of wool goods or velvet, while brunettes re-
quire the sheen of satin or gloss Of silk in
order to wear black to advantage. Fancy

To brush and brush and still to brush is
the best medicine for the hair, remember
ing always that it is the hair and not the
scalp which is to receive this treatment.
Upon the brush used depends a great deal.
In the first place it must be Immediately
clean, and ones brushes should be washed
as relgiously as is ones face. The comb
should be coarse, so that it will olsen
tangle the hair il it is snarled, but If the
hair is well brushed the comb really is Of
very little use. A fine comb is never adj
