HARD TO DESCRIBE STYLE
Matter 10 Exceedingly Difficult to De.
fine, Chiefly Because Il 10 So
Intangible.

What makes . woman stylish? Ap-
piled to dress, style is a curiously elu-
sive quality, either to define or to &C
quire, says q writer in Good Health.
"A stylish garment" we say, of one
made in the fashion Of the day. But
when We ask, What Is the style of the
garment" we are inquiring for . de.
scription that may be Of this years
style, or last years, or Of the last CEN
tury's. A dress may be "in style" so
tar - its material, cut and trimming
80. and yet not look stylish when
worn. either because it is worn by the
wrong person or In the wrong way.
"A stylish woman" we say, Of one
dressed . la mode. and yet in the next
breath We describe another woman ~
good style" although she il not wear
ing the latest fabrics or newest cut,
and often is not herself beautiful.
Style is not simple quality, but .
compound one. 1--WE say STYLE" says
an old writer, "of anything In which
form or matter is conceived to be, in
however slight degree. expressive Of
taste and sentiment" And it is taste
and sentiment more than a specific
mode that 60 to the making of style in
dress-that intangible something SO
hard to define. SO seldom acquired and
so much desired because it Is so wide
ly admired.
The French word chic expresses. az
Americans and English use it today,
a good deal Of what we have in mind
when we say stylish" 1t implies 4
certain knack in the selection and
manner of wearing clothes. The
meaning in French includes the idea
Of subtlety and finesse, and it Is these
qualities more than the epatant (strik-
ing) effect that are suggested by the
best-dressed women, and are 80 often
lacking In the appearance Of expen-
sively dressed Americans.

THE GREEK IDEAL OF BEAUTY.

We are swinging back TO the "loveless
Greek" in some OF our twentieth ideas
for example, that there can be no beauty
without health, and that health is wholly
dependent upon hygiene. Every old
Greek ode contains the following qualih-
cation: First, health; second. beauty;
third, wealth got honestly; fourth. the
ones friends. The question of happi-
ness, which Is dependent upon love, was
entirely foreign to their philosophy.
The extreme selhshness of the Greeks
in eliminating everything from their
lives that failed to contribute to their
ideals OF perfect beauty, such as their
refusal to bring up sickly and deformed
children, Is again somewhat in accord
with latter-day theories, and this lack
Of divine Christian qualities contributed
largely to the austerity Of their statues
and succeeded only in the main in per-
fecting models for the sculptors.
Today the pendulum is swinging back
to the conception Of the early Greeks, in
sofar as the proportion and symmetry of
the body are dependent primarily upon
health. Without health there can be no
beauty. The defects that the mirror re-
vesls are physiological, due to dispro-
portions OF the five systems which make
up the human body, the vegetative. tho
racic, muscular. bony and nervou. In the
vegetative, which Is the Oldest and most
