the rules under which ii may receive
for hospital and field service any wo-
man able to comply with the require
ments in all provisions but that OF spe-
cial training.
Not all the work of the society, how
ever. Is the caring for the sick. Women
are needed TO cook. to wash. to sew,
to scrub and To perform numberless
services besides binding up wounds and
administering medicine. On the field
OF battle the injured need water. there
are letters TO be written home, and there
are hundreds OF other directions in
which healthy, CHEEKY women. unafiiict-
ed with nerves, can make themselves
useful in the Red Cross service.
When called TO the front, the Red
Cross nurse may carry a single trunkful
of impedimenta with her. The uniform
Is OF blue gingham. with a white cap
and white apron. As the climate OF
Cuba is warm, IL is suggested that sum-
mer clothing be taken and such as will
not make the wearer look untidy in case
the laundress proves poor one.
Women unable to help the Red Cross
work in any other way may send con-
tributions of money or such donations

Dorothy Dene is said to be the most
beautiful woman in England. The late
Sir Frederic leighton selected her as
the one woman in all Europe whose
face and figure most closely taihed
with his ideal. She posed for a number
OF his most famous paintings. When
Sir Frederic, who was president OF the
Royal academy and ranked first among
English colorists. conceived the idea OF
his famous painting, "Cymon and lphi-

months later the most admired OF Sir
Frederic's works was completed.
Nowhere at the present time can a
more perfect type OF Greek beauty be
found than Miss Dene. Each line OF
her face and figure Ia purely classical.
Her height is rather above the average.

Miss Dene's features can bo readily

had finished "Cymon and Iphigenia.
Miss Dene is represented as the maiden
who IS catching the ball In his Greek
Girls Playing Ball" in which her ex-
ouisite figure is displayed TO advantage.

Dene's shapely arms may be noted.
