did. they kept the result Of their studies

thinkers have been finding out many in

being that, as q type. she was dying out.
Another theory advanced by q learned
Western professor was that all blondness
indicated disease, and that the kind pro-
ducing red hair was the most malignant.
All OF this demonstrates surely that the
red-haired woman is growing in interest
and Is being talked about, whereas twenty
years ago a girl with red hsir was con-
sidered severely handicapped in the race
matrimonial.
At that time the golden haired blonde
was admired to such an extent that about
every other woman sought TO gild her
locks. But the reaction was violent. The
bleached head became a blight, and even
in the chorus II was frowned upon. Now
adays the girl with designs upon the front
row lets her hair grow naturally, and II
she Possesses a red crown she fiufYs II out
conspicuously and applies confidently for

success of two women stars and the ap-

Up to this period decidedly red and
naturally red hair had not been deemed
a charm in the making Of a heroine. But
now II created attention. just a. the
scrawny girl OF ten years ago has become
the willowy type that is the correct thing
to-day. 80 the red-haired woman il the
acknowledged type Of beauty.

a vogue. at present, but I doubt II It will
be lasting one beyond. say. two seasons
Whatever may be the artistic fashion
Of the moment and no matter how II may
bring money to our place. we cannot help
having our own ideas and we place fine
golden hair first.
But red hair and the really golden hair
are almost equally scarce, and the reason
we prefer the golden-haire woman is I'M
doubtedly that in our experience with her,
she il easily pleased, gentle and always
beautiful. according TO the usual standards.
The red-hairei woman may be sIbtly
fascinating and all that. but the hair =
