For this reason the popular gold

less worn far enough from the face

Another eye DINNER Is roses and
other deep-hued flowers worn close
to tho face. They are warranted to
make the eyes lose in depth.
A girl must be sure OF her color
more aptly of lineless skin, since
color can be bought--if she is to
sport gold and silver flowers In her

For the same reason the fayorite

Flowers that have a hard sheen

trying TO the complexion even Of
rosy checked youth than is a velvet
flower of those of soft colorings.

"A Proposals
BY EDNA EGAN.

- VERY little while the time-worn
II question "Should woman pro-
- pose?" takes new lease of
life, and the war of wits wages mer-
rily for time.
II is always taken as huge joke,
not to be considered seriously for a
moment.
or course, woman should not pro-
pose and she never will, in the
strictest sense OF the word. But If
we only knew the true inwardness of
many case | wonder how many
girls do indirectly propose.
They do not say. in so many
words, "Will you marry me?" but
they attend to all the stage settings
and give the leading man his cue,
and before he realizes what he Is
doing he finds himself an engaged
man. .
Perhaps he never really knows
just how much assistance he has had.
Some men actually need this prod
ding to bring them to the proposal
point. They hang around the girl
for ages, never getting their courage
up to do the asking. and all the time
keeping other eligible men away
from her. N@.it1 it4W
Who can blai the girl or call her
unmaidenly IL she helps such tar
dy wooer along bit? She does not
propose to him; she simply makes
1t easy for him to propose to her.
There are some girls, alas! who
practically ask a man his intentions
before he knows them himself. They
are the girls who are not willing to
accept mere friendship from man
with them II is loye-making or moth
ing That they frequently end by be-
ing old maids does not seem to be a
warning to others OF their kind.
A girl can not expect a man to
propose to her unless She gives him
some encouragement, but there is a
happy medium in loye-making as in
all other things. an..s. gr
lf a man is attentive to a girl and
she likes him there is no harm In her
showing her liking in modest, dig
nifed way, She need not run after
him, but she can lei himl see that she
likes to be With him and that his
coming Is always welcome. sgt az.

determined wooer.

that woman should not propose to
man. 1t is an unwritten law. but a
very stringent one. The mere fact
OF a woman seeking him would be
enough to send the ordinary man

But many a man Is gently pro-
PEELED in given direction without
being aware of the fact. AS long as

When you have pressed out as dry as
