NEWEST PARIS FAD

Because the Viennese beauty is pale,

Ahglo-AIlerican conceptions, believes

American sisters, even, is willing 20

OF beauty.
The smart grooming requires what
might be called a natural pallor which
In no way suggests the invalid. 1t is

The Viennese women have this skin
naturally, and It is very fetching when
combined with red lips and brown hair.

Ire vegetarian woman is always

elimination of red meats viii help 10
drive out any Objectionably healthy glow
from the skin.
Macaroni and the Italian pastes are
excellent. No women in the world have
the clear white, healthy skin that the
women OF Italy boast.
Complexion fads must be paid for
dearly In the way OF self-denial. and ice

a beautiful pallor.
It is a sad paradox that the despised
onion is one OF the most powerful or

The coming of the pale beauty may or

is losing the vogue which the artists
gave her as much as a dozen years ago
She cannot he athletic and fashionable
longer unless she plays golf under a
