use of cosmetics?
Certainly 1t is always a woman's
duty to look her best-to, be beauti-
fui IL possible-and il Is sometimes
necessary to assist nature a bit in
this direction.
The beauties of the oriental harems
were perhaps the o%riginators of the
use OF cosmetics. But while they
adopted these artificial methods of
improving or enhancing beauty. they
have never. j~eopardized health and
beauty itself by using a coating OF
enameis and paints such as the sup
posedly more civilized women of
the occident have done.
The oriental woman will make a
very simple and effective rouge from
the petals of dsmask roses, crushed
in 'white-wine vinegar. Another
