BEAUTIFUL EYES.
"The Windows of the souI'i From the
ArtisIs XieNNpOint.

ARTISTS viewpoint
What is the definition of beautiful
eyes? Why are some eyes beautiful
and others ugly? What makes the eye
beautiful? To this Paris artist, an
impressionist, makes the following re-
ply:
Eyes are beautiful according to
their size. Small eyes may twinkle.
but they cannot express. Little eyes
may twinkle like stars. but they can
not blind you. Eyes that are under
sized may glow, but they can never
fascinate.
"The eyes must be prominent. Sunk
en- eyes are sad. Eyes that lie deep in
the eye sockets make you think Of
treason of strategy, of deeds that are
Clark, not deeds that are open. Deep
student eyes may be Indicative of deep
student thoughts, but they are not at
tractive.
DRY. hard eyes are never lovely;
neither are eyes that have wrinkles
over them or between them. Eyes
that are lined with crows feet are al
ways unlovely.
"The color of the eyes is said to de-
pend upon Il pigment which supplies
them with color. But this coloring pig
ment is not always reliable. Deep
blue eyes will look faded if one is
tired. The color pigment does not flow
freely. If agitated they will darken
and deepen in hue.
Ozark brown or black eyes will grow
still darker and blacker when one is
excited. But when one is weary or has
used the eyes to excess they will look
faded. The moral is do not use the
eyes too long and do not use them at
all when you want to look your best.
big eyes are almost always beauti-
full.
prominent eyes are apt to be hand
some, but they are repulsive If too
prominent. The woman whose eyes
stick out of her head has little redress.
II she can manage to grow fat the
prominence will be less noticeable. A
fieshy face generally conceals the
prominence of the eyes.
1.-THE best color for ideal eyes Is n
deep brown. Velvet brown it was call
ed in the old fashioned novels. Great
velvet brown, fawnlike eyes were
ideal.
"The eyes to be beautiful must be
swept by very long lashes which shade
them and give them a deepness and
brilliancy not their own. Every device
is used to make the lashes grow, but
where this cannot be accomplished then
the eyes must be darkened in other
ways. They must be kept healthy,
which is always point of beauty with
any eyes.
Long eyes are always desirable.
There is certain quiZZical beauty
about the long. almond shaped eye
which is most bewitching. The eyes of
the orientals are very attractive. long
and brilliant and full of fire.
Round eyes were once considered
very pretty True, they are babyish,
but they are very seldom really hand
some. They are apt II degenerate
when one gets little older into pop
eyes term applied to eyes that stick
out of the head and are devoid Of beau
~. Round eyes become pop eyes at
thirty.
"The handsOmest eyes-and all wOm-
en- should pray for pretty eyes-are
long, dark. brilliant and well shaded
with lashes. They are big and glowing
and expressive, and there is that quail
ty about them which one calls deep.
Deep. beautiful dark eyes, heavily
shaded with sweeping lashes. are a spe-
cial gift Of the gods vouchsafed to few,
but very much admired wherever they
are found. "-Brooklyn Eagle.
