At that time she was studying
art at the Academy of Fine Arts,
in Philadelphia, going in twice a

handed down to her, and she was
perfecting herself to become an il

is necessary to perfection of femin-
inc beauty is a point on which most
of the commentators on physiog-
nomy and personal beauty of the
last century seem to be agreed. 1t
is surprising to us of this day when
we lay so much more emphasis on
the necessity for perfect health and
strength as prerequisite for
beauty. However. If you come right
down to it, delicacy and frailty-
not of the unwholesome or sickly
sort-are still admired in a woman's
face. Determination, strength Of
will, endurance-these are charac-
teristics that we find shown in the
faces of men that are most admired.
whereas such traits too strongly
marked in a woman ) face rather
mar its beauty. She may be all
those things-but she had best not
show it if she wants to rank as a
beauty.
You can tell where the popular
taste rests in this matter. The
cinema actresses who are most in
demand are those who portray the

of woman. rather than the statues

than there is now. Women, even
il they were robust, liked to be
called frail. They resented being
regarded as actually too rugged.
