OPEN MOUTH WOMEN.
Thoughts Suggested by Modern Ten
dency in Photography.

BY one hvpercritical authority of
comment on the subject of the open
mouth as revealed in popular portraits
of Young women. Views on this mat
ter, by those who have taken the
trouble to think of it at all, vary con-
siderably. 1t has failed to become one
of the important sociological issues of
the day for the simple reason that the
great majority of us have never both
cred to think of it one way or the 9th
er.
And yet it is a question that is in
sistently forced upon our attention.
There is no one form of art that strikes
the multitude in such wholesale fash
ion. Photography has multiplied fem
mime portralture to an extent that no
conservative person would dare to esti-
mate. Perhaps the average young girl
who is at all good looking has ''sit-
tings' with professional phOtogra-
pher as frequently as with her dentist.
hBesides this there is an amount of
amateur snap Shooting going on contln-
| uallv that is beyond any reckoning.
| Then look at the staggering output OF
magazines, the covers of most of them
! bearing month after month the faces
of young women, while the text and
the advertising pages inside are en-
riched with scores of others. Indeed,
nine tenths of the art we find in EVIL
dence on all sides seems to consist OF
the feminine face.
That there is a good deal of the open
mouth in this art cannot be denied
That is, at least, the lips have a ten
dencv to be parted rather than com
pressed. The question is whether tins
/ open mouth disposition in the feminine
portraiture of the magazines is in har
mony with the best principles of art.
! In some instances, of course, there
are definite reasons for the parted lips
The charming effect due to the use OF
some toothpaste could not be empha
sized if the mouth of the convincing
illustration were tightly closed. But II
hundreds of eases there is no such oh
vious reason. The artist represents HI
fascinating model with parted lip
merely because he considers that he
charm is thereby enhanced. That /
the way he gets the effect of wistful
ness or righteousness or expectancy o
/. merriment or whatever he is aiming al
Parted lips give the desired impres
sion.
But our stern critic declares that a
} open mouth suggests Hmouth breath
ler.' That is not as pleasant as sugge'

Some Birds Are "Sprinters."

Birds with short. square wings, like
the king bird, quail and ruffled grouse,
are sprinters those with wide
stretch of wings are distance run
ners.' Birds of the first class attain
their bursts of speed through their
very rapid wing stroke; birds of the
second class have sustained powers of
flight, but get under way more slowly.
All the gallinaceous fowl are sprint
ers. They take wing like a bullet
their wings make loud, whirring
sound. The quail or ruflled grouse can
gain full momentum within sixty feet
of rising; the wings beat from five tC
seven times Il second. The quail GOV.
ers from forty-five to fifty feet the frs
second away from the gun; his wings
flash like a rapidly revolving wheel
The wings of the rufflcd grouse rOal
until the sound can be heard 200 yard:
away.

ion of righteousness or animation. The
whole question involves problem that
is distinctly modern. \ half century
ago persons who were having their PIE
lures .'took' reSolutelv compressed
their lips, and the photographer subtlv
aided the effect of grim heroism by ad-
lusting an iron clamp at the back OF the
head. If It was a gentleman who wore
whiskers he looked in the resulting pic
ture like one of Fox S Martyrs. a very
young girl looked as if she mad just been
punished or were just about to be, while
any older woman looked as if she had
determined to be an old maid all her life
III spite of everything.
Occasionally there were exceptions, to
be sure but the general effect of the
photography of the Civil war period was
about as here described. If you doubt
this. lust take another look through your
old family album if YOU happen to have
one.
Certainly the feminine face as it is
represented in art today seems rather
more lifelike, whether we Judge by pho
| tographs or magazine covers and Illus
| trations But it may be doubted if the
generally improved results are due to
any change in the fashion of holding the
feminine mouth, although such phe-
nomenon as portrait of young woman
lwith an open mouth was almost unknown
previous to the time of the Philadelphia
| Centennial.
But artisticallv there is an objection
to this manifestation in portraiture quite
aside from its implied suggestion of
nasal deficiencies. \ human face, allow
ing that it possesses any degree of
charm, is continually changing i'll ex-
preston. A picture must catch one of
the shifting expressions, and the trouble
is that the transkxed expression be
comes static. In real life the young girl s
Iparted lips may be charming, because
each moments expression is fieeting
and the change gives animation. The
Ipicture affords no change, and the open
mouth, after the first quick glance, gives
a suggestion of mental vacuity and in
anity. Still, it may be doubted if the
effects are any worse now than they
were in the days when the photographed
victims were tortured. = Providence
