HOW A QUEEN KEEPS HERBEAVTY

Queen Victoria of Spain Is wonderfully
pretty. At first her features strike You as
chubby. Then you hegln to notice how
pretty She really is. King Alfonso, in a
sightseeing, wife hunting tour OF the
world. found nothing at all that compared
TO her.
Now that she is queen. and has taken
on something of the majesty of her posi-
ton, You begin to notice the following
things:
First, that her hair is a wonderful shade
of red. 1t Is not deep, but a real auburn.
1t probably is the only case of auburn
hair in all royalty. Other princesses have
brown hair, and some nave drab hair.
while a few have red hair. But the young
queen is the only pale auburn haired girl
In the royal families of Europe.
When Alfonso first saw her he said:
She will be the first auburn haired
queen of Spain.
all of the Spanish queens nave been dark.
She will be the first plump queen; all
have been thin and lanky.
She will be the first pure, fair haired,
all English type. The Spanish queens all
have had the long nose of CASTLE and the
DUH skin of the dull skinned lands. My
queen will be the first beautiful girl to sit
upon the throne of Spain"
Hair Positively Dances With Color.
So the young princess was chosen. But
Of all her beauty features her hair is the
most pronounced. 1t positively dances with
color. 1t always is so delicately dressed
that You can see through it. 1t Is fuffy
and lies in little pillows. AT the same time
1t is not loosely arranged nor untidy.
The young queen, when she found that
she was to occupy a throne, took a course
of beauty lectures. These We're more in
the nature of beauty lessons than beauty
hints. She learned how to make the most
of herself. Among other things she learned
these-and in all her pictures You will see
that she has profited by them!
First, to dress to match her eyes and
hair. Both are a shade of red or reddish
brown. And the young queen wears OK
heart daisies, the kind with big dark red
centers. She twines them into a wreath
for her hair and she masses them into a
corsage bouquet for her gown. She sell
dom is photographed without this big
handsome bunch OF red centered daisies.
They are now the court flower of Spain.
Dress to match the spots in your eyes,
is one of her beauty rules.
Another beauty rule is: Don't crowd
your throat Most women crowd the
throat with a big dog collar and bundle
up the neck with tight fitting bands of
beads and velvet. But young Queen We
toria knows better. Though the possessor
of all the court jewels of Spain. she wears
no high dog collar. Her only exception is
a pretty throatlet of diamonds and pearls
which King Alfonso bought for her on
Bond street one day in their saunters
through London.
The young queen wears pearls-diamonds
seldom. pearls match the milky white
ness of your skin" the beauty lecturer
said to her. Let others wear diamonds. 1t
Is yours to wear pearls"
Women of milky skin should wear pearls
all they can. Nothing becomes them so
well. The delicate pure creaminess Of the
pearl seems to set off the skin as nothing
else can do. 1t brings out it's best tones
and hides its poor ones. Wear pearls If
you want a nice skin. If your skin is
poor wear turquoise and topaz. They go
we'll with a dull skin. But the l:ly girl
must wear pearls.
King Alfonso loves pale auburn hair.
And the young princess took a lesson in
keeping it bright. ut will stay bright
while you are young. But, as cares come,
1" will Sdarken," said the. beautyalecturer
to her. And you must learn how to keep
1t light"
Teach me-teach me-" the willing prin-
cess said.
Then listen" said the beauty lecturer.
Don't tax your hair. Wear 1t always
different. Never let a hairpin touch the
scalp in the same spot two days in sue
CcSSlOu.
Wear it round to make a frame for
your face. A round face is young and be-
coming. See that you always preserve the
%roundness of Your face. Never mind what
others say. The round face is best be-
cause 1t IS the face that belongs to child
hood. Old women never have round. child
ish faces. And keep YOU hair washed and
bright.
Has Learned the Art of Looking Tall.
The young queen is of only medium
height, and she, therefore. always tries to
look a little taller. Her recent trip to Paris
was for the purpose of getting beauty
hints upon the art of looking tall. Here
are some of the things she learned:
First-To look tall, make your waist as
long assyou can.
Second-To look tall, don't lace tightly.
but make your belt line sloping rather
than sharp. Don't ]acccntuate your hips.
Third-To look taller thar you really are
make your skirts long. Don't wear amy
skirt shorter than ankle length, a little
longer THAI, the ankles is better.
Fourth-To look tall, dress your hair
high. Trim 1t with flowers and make a
eoiffure. This really lifts you a couple Of
inches and makes you seem taller than
You actually are. OF course. don't cNag-
serate, but lift your couture all You can,
