a Ihrew.Baek to the Junglss.
The girls who use lip-sticks and
great gobs of rouge to annoint their
faces blame the men for it and say
they daub it on to win admiration
from their masculine friends.
Which is sheer tommyrot. We
would hate to see the color of a
mans hair who will admit that he
demands face-painting in great
smears in the woman he admires.
In fact we dare any man to come in
and admit it. And if he does we will
print his name, and challenge him
to a public debate on the subject.
Face-painting in all its forms is
sheer Notwithstanding less. 1t
is barking back to the primitive
sthte1 wherein savages dtsfigure
their features. or freely daub them
selves with gorgeous colors. 1t re-
ally has no place in civilization, and
the girl who tries to kid herself
into the belief that face-smearine
IS popular with the men, Is a
throw-back to the jungles.
Spend o time, girls, putting
something into your heads and not
on them, and you will be gaining an
attractiveness that will last.-Ex.
