Attractive by reason OF her tint
ness and daintiness IS the canary
woman. Very small, Of exquisite
neatness and canary-like swiftness,
she Is the most petable OF women,
except the cat kind. Her walk is like
hop. Her eyes are small and bright
and rowing. She nearly always has
straight hair that she wears smooth
~ upon her sleek, little head. She
has wee feet and hands. She Is alert
and tireless, though of small frame
and fragile.
Each of these women has a key
note OF character and appearance.
The lion woman's Is quiet strength.
The tiger woman's q brilliancy and
wealth Of color. The cat woman's Is
slow grace Of movement and softness
Of outline. The peacock woman is
nothing If not magnificent The dove
woman Is characterized by quiet
manner and soft tones in dress. Tho
canary girls dominant notes are
daintiness and quickness.
For each one Of these there is a
distinctive style OF dress. Classify
yourself correctly and you Will have
no trouble to dress becomingiy, for
you have only to study your animal
prototype and learn from It. 1t will
give You all the hints about dress
you need.
I. Anne Dancrey, receive more
hints on dress from the ZOO than
from shops. A lions cage suggests
more to me about my seasons ward

liked lions. When child was taken
to the zoo. did not laugh at the
antics Of monkeys or try to play
with the little white rabbits. The

but with what power. about their
cages, or asleep in streak Of sun
ed me. A lion is never fat I
hate fat. His body Is Just as heavy
as 1t needs to be for Its use-no
heavier. That is hint to all women,
especially women of the lion type No
woman who is fat is beautiful. To
many persons land am one of them)
she Is actually repulsive. Fat Is a
disease, and the fat person is unat-
tractive because she is not healthy.
All women should be as tall as they
can. Height Is beauty. When Scho-
penauer expressed his contempt for
1.-THE short-legged sex" he showed also
a knowledge Of the fundamentals of
beauty. one OF which is height.
knowing myself to be lion
woman, I always wear one-tone
gowns. The combinations that are
now the mode are not for me, espe-
clally not during the day. For me
there exists but three colors by day
black, white and blue. No matter
what the season I appear only in one
OF these on the street or at home
by day. By night I permit myself
slight shadings Of the same colon. My
model, the lion. seems to be OF one
color. Scrutinized closely 1t may be
seen that his dark body shades to
lighter tones. Therefore, / permit
myself for evening wear "changeable"
gowns, the colors sometimes called
"clouded," or Shaded" as MORE, silk
or cloth.
The lion is usually Of a tawney (yel-
lowish brown) color. the same from
name to claws. save when the light
shines straight upon him, when we
see the rich yet delicate standings of
his coat. Stripes or pIaids or any
thing of gariSh effect would take the
lion woman out Of her type. She
should wear few jewels, and If she
wears plumes or flowers on her hat
they should be of soft, dull tones
