unkind in the matter of Cupid-bow
mouths. The Japanese ladies under
stand this touching of the lips and
carry with them tiny pieces Of prepared
red skin which, being moistened and
touched to the lips, leave blush of
red behind:
Those who have pretty mouths-and
most American women haye-can try
biting the lips, or, rather, pressing
them between the teeth gently and OBJ
serve the effect If the mouth looks
like bow the work has been well done,
and no more is necessary. If there is,
instead of a bow, a long red line,
something else must be done.
A touch of powder at each side Of
the mouth makes 1t smaller You can
make the mouth into a vertiable rose
bud by shortening 1T at the sides; but
rosebud mouths are not in style, and
you must cultivate the bow. This is
done by putting a touch of red upon
the under lip and two touches of color
upon the upper lip, one at each side Of
the middle crease of the lip. This
makes a true bow the very one that is
in style this year.
The changing OF the type of profess
sional beauty is one that takes place
about, once in twenty years, or once
in a generation. For twenty years the
low, fluffy hair, the medium sized nose,
the short neck, and the pink and white
bloom have been beautiful. Now the
neck lengthens, the face follows it in
contour, becoming birdlike in symme-
try, and the features conform as far as
possible to certain Greek ideas. 1t is
a beautiful style, a classical one, and
one that will be copied by all the pro-
fessional beauties of the winter.

paper initiating or representing grain

follows: The floor is first smoothed,
then two or three layers of newspa-
pers, saturated with flour paste, are
applied, made smooth, and left to dry
Then the wall paper-that which rep
resents grained oak being preferred
