BEAUTY OF DARK TREssEs
1t is Sung of in Poetry by the Great Con-
fucius


II is Sung of in Poetry by the Great Con-
fucius.
a recent amusing discussion in for
eign ladies' journal as to the relative
claims of beauty to blonde and brunette
types brought out some interesting his
torical facts about the popularity of light
and dark hair among the various nations.
The Hindoos have at all times hymned
and praises of black hair. From time i'm
mortal dark hair has been admired in
China. The ''Chi-Kingn or '''Booko of
Verses" in which Confucius compiled so
many very ancient odes or songs, men
toned q Chinese lady who wore plates of
gold in her hair and an ivory comb. Her
hair was very black and 'thick as clouds {"
In the time of the Pharoahs black hair
was also in fashion. The Louvre in Paris,
contains the monument of Moutaris,
queen of king of Thebes, and on the
base is inscribed this eulogy in HERO
glyphics: "She holds the palm of love be-
fore all men and women. The blackness
of her hair is the blackness of night The
women of Israel seem to have resembled
the Shulamite, whose black hair is cele.
| DRAFTED in the "Song of Songs'' Among
| the Assyrians, Modes and Persians black
| hair has always been preferred. Still
| light hair was tolerated until the year
| Dol, when there was imported from Hin
dustan into Persia dye known as
"Hind," which applied to light hair
| quickly turned it to deep black The
women of Arabia also dye and perfume
their hair. The Turkish women, TOO,
delight in black hair, which they wear
! in Persian style. They like to hare it in
delicate curls, which float down over the
cheeks and cluster around the neck. On
the other hand the Greeks thought for q
long time that light hair was far more
| beautiful than black
