WOMAN'S REALM

Photography as an art has attained
such a standard of excellence that no
pains are too Infinite 10 enhance its
effectiveness While the primary OBJ
ject in any likeness. is to portray the
features, the pose, the individual, yet
IL cannot be gainsaid that much Of our
pleasure in viewing the countenance,
however perfectly depicted, may be Sc
riously marred by the unhappy selec-
ton of an unbecoming gown.
Il is a mistake to wear ones richest
and most sumptuous costume instead
of one whose design, being less pro-
nounced, is, consequently, less apt to
look grotesque a few seasons hence.
Certain materials are risky, to say the
least, in a photograph. Satins or silks
with high luster throw lights and shad.
ows which are harsh and unexpected
in reproduction. Translucent fabrics
are by far to be preferred. Softly fold
ing, easily draped, and not pronounced
are crepes. either silk or wool. ana
chiffon. Tulle, nets and such lace
like transparent effects depend so
much upon the materials which are
used as foundations that, in a general
way, they are to be considered as Sec
ondary in importance, although as dra-
peries they may be styled par excel
lence Stiff, starchy effects are to be
strictly tabooed unless it be the trans
lucence of swiss OF organdie.
Stripes and large patterns in lace
or silk are failures, big brocades or
plaids something to make one weep,
especially the photographer who fore
sees a demand for second sittings
when the proofs are shown. Velvet
and fine furs are especially happy selec-
tions, and such accessories as a hand
some opera cloak or long ostrich fan
are deemed happy adjuncts with full
dress.
Gloves should always be worn with
street toilets, which include a hat. but
since a glace glove would be shiny,
one of undress kid is far better. With
very light colors the hand should al
ways be lifted or placed against a back
ground darker than itself since the
pink dress will naturally take dark
er than the light fabric.
Jewelry adds much to an evening
dress, especially in the way OF orna-
ments about the top of a low-cut COR
sage. Pearls photograph exquisitely in
made-up jewelry, in necklaces or in
long chains. which may be brought up
and knotted once or festooned from a
single ornament in front Of the corsage.

Plain Girl to the Front

The plain girl is receiving a deal Of
attention She is the heroine of the
last new novel which makes the for
tune of author and publisher; she is
the favorite of society, of the stage.
But she is notable for something intsr-
esting. If ii is nothing higher than a
talent for dressing. She mas winning
ways, excels in outdoor sports. is ac-
cOmplished in various ways. or mem
tally brilliant. She knows how to talk
and how TO listen writes books. paints
pictures, raises prize animals. or flow
els, is an expert musician and the best
of wives and mothers. She holds her
husbands respect and devotion when
her pretty neighbor is seeking divorce
from a truant husband.
The plain girl is generally a sensible
one. She Will not submit TO injustice;
she Will not bear neglect with meek
ness of spirit. One often thinks that
humanity is pretty sure of its victims
before it attempts its system of petty
tyranny. We rarely try to slight those
who, we are certain, will resent Sights
The easy people who are too timid OF
too indolent to resent anything are the
ones with whom we break engage
ments, without notice, and otherwise
abuse. 1t is hard TO understand the
woman who claims that her husband
beats her, for why does she permit it
She might be taken by surprise the
first time, but what about the second
and the third? Women establish theil
own value. as a rule. and some Of them
after discovering that the valuation
was much too low, rebel with louC
words. but without action to bacl
them up. Is that not so?
