An Interesting Type DyHDHA EHHrroRRHs

THE girl whose photograph 1 an
using today has an unusual and
very interesting face. I certainly
DO not think she is pretty, but I sus-
pect that there are many people who
would be fascinated by her type and
would call her beautiful, and 7 think
that almost everyone viii agree that
she IS interesting and artistic.
After all, i takes a great deal OF
courage 10 do what she has done. II
she did her hair differently or dressed
IN an unbecoming fashion. she would
be very homely indeed; II she tried
10 make herself look as much like
other girls as possible, she could not
hope % look pretty and she would
probably look merely ordinary As It
is, she has had the courage to do her
hair IN one OF the most trying
fashions in the world, and she has
dressed herself in the severest
tailored dress that she could find. And
the result Is, to say the least, IN
usual and interesting
As you can see, she has dark hair
without a trace OF curl in it-not the
least bit Of wave to soften a face
whose features are not perfect She
has parted her hair in the middle
and combed Il straight out on each
side OF her head. drawing the ends
into q simple knot in back This par
ticular style, in its extreme severity
