Consider the countenances Of your
friends and you will find that the wo-
man who Is at her best with her hair
done low on the back of her neck Is
the woman with the sensitive, spirit
ually refined face. II is the artistic
couture, and demands an expression
signifying something more than flesh
and blood beauty. The low couture
with a rose tucked In 1t harmonizes
only with a face wherein there Is q
sentimental note. The sentiment type
looks pretty with Its hair either way;
the spirituelle type does better to con-
form to the artistic low coifure, while
the unsentimental. unspirituelle type
makes mistake when 1t robs itself
Of the smartness and dignity of the
high couture.
