THE DUCHESS OF MILAN

Cristierna Sforza, Duchess of Milan, was the daughter of Christian II, king of Denmark, who was expelled by his subjects and died in exile. She was left an orphan in infancy and was raised by her aunt, the dowager Queen of Hungary. Her beauty attracted the attention of Charles ", who adopted her and took her to Madrid. In 1850 she married Francesca Sforza, duke of Milan, who died three years later. She then married Francesca l., duke of Lorena, refusing the hand of Henry VIII, of England. She was again left a widow four years after and refused to marry again. She de- voted herself to governing the terri tories left her and did this with much wisdom. Her government was seiz- ed by Henry II, of France, and she then retired to private life. She is said to have brought about the meet ing between Henry and Charles, which resulted in peace between France and Spain, in 1855. She died of paral- ysis, at Tortona, in the year 1890.

Beautiful Elbows the Result
 Of Much Thought and Care

were seated nearby, resting one or both elbows on the tables
 The position is accepted as impolfte, although I am sure these women did not adopt the position intending to be rude. Yet, there they sat, leaning on their elbows and occasionally chang ing from one elbow to the other.
 One should remember the disad- vantages caused by indulging in this habit and avoid the temptation to rest the elbows on tables, desks, marble, etc. Particularly now that the three quarter and the short-length sleeves are again in vogue, the beauty of the elbow should be preserved and de- veloped where it is lacking. If you find your elbows calfoused or irritated, try the following simple pro- cess to soften and beautify them: Scrub the elbows with a, flesh brush, | always using rotary motion. This has the tendency to round the elbow inclined to be pointed. A pure soap should be used, and if possible, rain water. To soften the hardened skin a heaping tablespoonful of oatmeal may be thrown into the water
 After vigorously scrubbing the el- bows, dry with a Turkish towel. The friction will cause the skin to redden. but, of course, this will not remain permanently.
 A good skin food can be prepared by mixing, the following ingredients: Five cents worth each of white wax spermaceti and powdered camphor. Mix with sufficient olive oil to make a good emollient. Rub into the elbows using the rotary motion

BRILLIANT HUES PREFERRED TO
 FAINT TINTS

Long ago, France decided to wear beige, sand color, biscuit color, or whatever else they wished to call it. In America, we grouped all the col ors under the one name of beige. It was an. easier word for the majority to handle.
 At first, we did not take to the color with any violent enthusiasm. As a nation, we are sufficiently youthful to like colors that are vivid to avoid those that are negative.
 Bright CoIors Preferred.
 Brilliant black is to us a far more attractive color than pale gray or bis cult. We rarely endorse faintly flow cred pastel tints. It is said by those who study dress that we are not as hopeless in our combinations of bright colors as certain sections of Great Britain, and one must admit that we are more inclined to combine drab tones in an ugly way than almost any other nation in the world. One al- most feels that it would be better to see a woman in a rural community put on a yellow bodice and a red Sh11 I11d1l o IS It SI dS oll11 Ih c1AoI e11IN a faded black skirt.
 The peasants of other countries know far more about the brilliancy of clothes and color combinations than do the 'workaday people who spread themselves over this continent be- tween the cities. This dictum does not apply to the young, however; ii rests upon the heads of those who are at or over middle age.
 Knowing this tendency on the part of many Americans, those who see clothes in a mass, as from an aero plane, are not sure that beige is the best color to exploit in this country One has to say that it must be worr with blue or black and that it must be combined in an exceptionally artis- tic manner, or the effect is bad.
 Beige is exceedingly smart; of that there is no doubt; but, it takes a F7renchwoman or a certain type of vel groomed American to carry off z whole costume of beige.

arm dropped to her side I was aston ished to see what an ugly elbow she had.
 It was pointed and roughened. The thought occurred to me that she might have avoided the unnecessary bruised and reddened elbow. Why did she rest her elbow on that mar ble balustrade? Elbows should not be allowed to rest on solid objects.
 Whenever see young girl with a well-shaped hand resting her elbows on a table I feel strongly tempted to remind her that this apparently harm less indulgence will cause her to have chafed and roughened elbows.
 If she would only stop to think, she would realize that it's just such a thoughtless act that makes it neces- sary to remedy a defect created by her lack of forethought.

 Among Bridgeport residents on whose inquiries Professor James c. Egbert of Columbia University partly bases an interesting statement made public last night are: Miss Mabel Barber of 26 Washington avenue; Miss Ada G. Bennett of 22S Lewis street; Miss Mary D. Burgoyne of 2S1 West ayenue;; the Misses Ethel and Susie Chichester of 716 North avenue. Professor Egbert said that all of these persons had made inquiries concerning the summer session of Columbia University and that be- cause of this evidence of interest, here as well as elsewhere, he predicts the attendance this summer will reach 6,OO0--a'bout the population of the town of Branford, Connecticut.
 Dr. Egbert, who is director of the famous summer session, says:
 "We find people this year are de- manding as never before both amuse- ment facilities and the opportunity tc serve the nation seriously.
