Point of Beauty Which All Womer
Should Do Their Very Utmost
to Attain.

1t is said by physiognomists the
mouth is the feature which most truly
expresses the character. Mouths have
won more men for women than any
other feature. A man when away may
forget the glance of an eye, the shape
of the face, but some expression of the
mouth still remains with him perma-
nently.
Many women who have no other
good feature seem to be beautiful be-
cause the mouth is bewitchingly at
tractive, and tells of a soul that is
big and fine. 1t is an easy matter for
us to do for the mouth what nature
did not do. OF course, we cannot
change the marking of the mouth, but
we can change the lines about it. No
mouth, no matter how beautiful its
contour, is attractive if it pulls down
or remains immovable in tight,
straight lines.
The mouth is the most mobile of
all our features. 1t is claimed that
those who talk, sing and laugh fire.

DESIGNERS HAVE SENT OVER
MANY PRETTY THINGS.
New Goats Have Touches That Give
Them Distinction-Soft BroadcIcth
May BE Brought Back
into Fashion.

The new coats which have arrived
mere seem to indicate that number
of the designers have taken up the
IDEA OF fastening the coat at the col
Iarbone and at the waist line. When
the coat is single-breasted the blouse
usually shows through the opening,
which naturally occurs between the
two widely spaced buttons If wom-
an does not like this, however, it is
better to give enough width to the
under front piece to hide the blouse.
Although there are high, rolling
collars at the back of many of the
new Jackets, there are also revers that
run down to the chest and sometimes
further.
Here and there one sees in the new
gowns some remarkably lovely mate
rails which we will not be able to
duplicate in this country. Barring
these, there is lack of new materials,
and it is probable that this season
our dressmakers will not encounter
one of their most serious obstacles in
copying French models, which is the
inability to secure enough of the ma
terial in the original gown.
This is the reason that your dress
maker may have persuaded you in
the past to have your French model
copied in another color and fabric;
you were not aware that she could not
get the original material in this coun-
try and that she had not ordered
enough of it from France to satisfy
the demands of her patrons.
Serge, gaberdine and all manner of
silk supply the needs Of the dress
making world this spring, but Jenny,
Bernard and other houses may bring
soft broadcloth back into fashion
through their sponsorship of it. One
does not usually think of broadcloth
as spring fabric, but the present

CHARM IN MOBILE MOUTH

quently retain an expression of youth
never found in those who have not
frequently exercised the lips in these
ways.
To encourage upward trend of the
mouth we must begin at the founda-
ton of beauty, character. We must
encourage beautiful, kind and pure
thoughts. We must think of the sweet
joyful things in life, not Of the dis
couraging, wicked ones. The next
step toward developing a beautiful
mouth is full set of teeth in per-
feet condition.
There are several exercises which
keep the lips mobile and flexible.
Whistling is good, if not overdone.
Blowing out a candle or an imaginary
candle light is also good. But best
of all is to toss feathery dandelion
into the air and blow it about, laugh
ing at the sport which is derived from
this, or blow soap bubbles. Blowing
them about the room is a good lip
exercise.
Do not bring the lips tightly togeth-
er. That spoils the mouth, adds lines
and wrinkles, and makes the face old.
Always let the lips fall lightly to-
gether.

Has Made Study of Buddha.

DR.. David Brainard Spooner, who
propounds the theory that Buddha was
not Hindu, as is the prevailing belief,
is an American, native of New Eng
land, and for some time has been in
the employ of the archaeology depart
ment of the government of India. 1t
is his belief that Buddha was Per
sian and a renegade from Zoroastri-
anism, rather than renegade from
Hindu teaching, which also explains
a reference to Buddha in the ancient
Parsee scriptures as a hereto, term
which could not have been used had
he not been connected originally with
Zoroastrianism, believes Doctor
Sponer. Among this explorer
achievements is the unearthing of
Buddha's bones from a mound near
Peshawur in northwestern India.

Much Ribbon on Millinery

In spite of the fact that so many
flowers were seen in the first straw
hats worn in the late winter, both in
Paris and in this country, ribbon is
taking a more and more important
place in the seasons millinery trim
ming
Many of the new hats are almost en-
tirely covered with ribbon. Stiff rib
bon is laced and used to cover crown
and brim, ribbon about an inch wide.
Sometimes the crown is covered
with bands Of ribbon, all crossing at
the center. The stiff, twilled ribbon is
used for this purpose, too.
Then there are the bands of ribbon
with tailored bow at the side, some
times forming the only trimming of
sailor shapes, sometimes used in COM
bination with feather fancy at one
side.
A charming hat is Of black straw,
with small bow knots of very mar
row picot-edged electric blue ribbon
fastened fat against the crown, all
around it. The ends of the bows hang
on the brim.
Pastel colors in ribbons are used
for hats to wear with thin summer
frocks. They are sometimes made into
big wired bows which perch jauntily
at the back or side of the hat, some
times narrow ribbons are used.
Narrow ribbon is run through
buckles, too, which adds to its trim
ming quality Small bone buckles,
sometimes metal buckles, are used.

Black Lingerie

While black corsets are not so I'M
usual as to cause one to exclaim, the
fact that there is a demand for whole
sets of lingerie in black is astonishing.
It is said that anything in the lingerie
line can be now had in this somber
hue, and when it is considered that
many of the modish frocks are Of
transparent material, it seems reason
able, at least, that the brassiere and
the corset, too, for that matter, should
be fashioned of black material.

Frivolous Capes

The neat, but inconsequential little
shoulder cape has now become an ar
ticle of clothing by itself. It is black
or dark blue, and occasionally OF a
brighter color. Three deep ruf1es OF
taffeta. which bring it just over the
shoulder, are it's usual mode of being,
but many variations are exhibited.
Sometimes the ruffles and outstanding
ruf1e of a collar are divided at the
hack. and in one case the little cape
is made with diminutive sleeves, also
finished with a rufHe. The high, nar-
ing collar of one cape is made with a
narrow, pointed yoke, and the friils,
instead of being of the taffeta, are OF

Seals Like United States.

There are in existence only two I'M
portant herds of fur seals, one of
which has its breeding grounds in the
Commander islands, belonging to Rus
STA, the other in the Pribilof islands,
belonging to the United States. or
these the latter is much the larger.
The Pribilof islands are government
property, and thus it happens that
the United States government finds
itself the owner of by far the most
valuable herd of fur seals in the
world This unique bit of property
has been source of much tribula-
tomas everybody knows.
