KEEPING THE LOOK OF YOUTH
9arisicnncs Are. Probably the Most
Successful in This, But Many May
Achieve II.

A Russian princess who has attract
ed much attention in Paris this winter.
and who is considered one of the best
dressed women in that city declares
that nothing ages a woman appear
snce so much as the old-fashiCned
method of pushing the flesh up above
che corset.
How few women who have passed
the dangerous" age stop to think ~
this. yet is 1t not true? The settled
look that comes with middle age is
enhanced by a suff-corseted figure
above the waist.
Put money into good corset, nave
1t fitted sitting down, and in adjust
ing it be sure to pull it far down
and grid it firmly round the hips.
Many women find as they grow
older they must have their evening
gowns cut high. This need not be
done If care IL takaS 10 get corset
that has a los bust.
From Paris comes another hint
4Dout youthful looks. A famous
dressmaker says that real lace ages
women and should never be worn
near the face.
The Parisienne has learned to fight
age more successfully than most
women because she pays heed to de-
tails that TO others seem trivial She
makes a study OF line, angle and
color, and who will say the resulta
are not worth the trouble?
1t is every woman's duty to keep
young looking. The worst way to do
1t Is to feign youth through cosmetics
or a kittenish manner!-Clevelan
