BEAUTY CHATS
BY EDNA
KENT FORBES.

This is an important point. because
an oily skin does not want an oily
cream, and sensitive skin cannot
stand a heavy one. Neither will a
wrinkled skin benefit greatly from
a cream that is only cleansing. You
must experiment until you have
found one that suits you best. A
cream made form olive oil will not
harm the most sensitive complexion
and is always beneficial
Rose:-The most convenient way to
handle henna is to get ii in powder
form. l will. be glad to mail you
directions for using it upon receipt
Of a stamped, addressed envelope
Edna:-Many women are troubled
as you are. with growth of hair on
the lip. but they keep it from dis
figuring them by extracting all the
course or dark hairs with tweeZers
that have blunt ends, bleaching the
fine hair if it shows. The reason
for using bluut-end tweeZers is be-
cause they grasp the hair. pulling il
out from below the skin. whereas
sharp ends clip off the hair like shaw
ing.
Hettie:-IIse cream abundantly every
day. and after you have fully recovered
from these operations your skin will
not be so in need of feeding. A plain
oil is not as satisfactory for the COM
pleXion as cream. but a cream. to be
nourishins. must be made OF vegetable
oils

she says.
She has a tremendous sense of
humor.
If she likes you. she salutes you
on both cheeks. II she doesn't like
YOU she doesn't salute you at all.
She loves moonlight and starlight
and daisies and dogs and gardenias
and singing. "Oh, You Beautiful
DOLL" and scallions and poor writer's
and lamps and cats
Loyalty is. for her, the supreme
thing. Success is a see-saw," she
says.
She has written plays. short stories,
poems and essays.
What do you make of Petrovaism?
1t seems to me to stand for will power
and courage and beauty and energy.
A blaze of beauty lighting bright

DUTCH GIRLS CYCLE RIDERS.

DUTCH GIRLS CYCLE RIDERS.
THE fiappers Of Holland simply dote
i on bicycle riding. according to
Mrs. John NJ. ter Linden Of 156 18th
street southeast, who recently re-
turned from the land Of dykes.
where she spent several weeks visit
ing friends and relatives.
Mrs. ter Linden says that any one
who thinks the Dutch girl still clacks
about in wooden shoes and voluml-
nous skirts and wears swinging pig
tails of flaxen hair has the wrong idea
entirely and had better wake up. She
was astounded to see that the girls
all over this tiny country wear just
as short dresses and bob their hair
as do the American girls. Also, the
Dutch girl is going into all lines or
business with a vengeance and the
women Of Holland are very much In
terested in the possible bringing
about of world peace.
The fad for bicycle riding Is par
ticularly interesting at this time.
when the American girl is taking up
another old favorite outdoor sport
that of hiking. In spite of her
ability as skater. the Dutch girl
does not favor hiking nearly as much
as bicycle riding, sport which en-
joyed it's greatest popularity among
American girls of the Howard Chand-
ler ChrIsty period.

What Is Petrovaism?
BY GLADYS HALL.

Yesterday l lunched with Madame
Petrova and then went with her
while she rehearsed the first act of
her stage play, THE White Peacock"
The play ran all last season, and
madame is going on the road with
it-perhaps some of you will see
her. There is also a rumor. faint,
but persistent, about pictures again.
But you want to know what Petro-
vaism is: OF course. l can't tell

who write about "isms' take two or

speak. Here are some PetroVaisms.
She is a poet and she is practical.
She cares for people for what they
are. not for what they have or Tor
what they have done.
She believes in educating women
for careers precisely as men are edu-
Gated for them.
She has written a new play. She

or she may produce it with some

She reads what she writes to her

She has d chraming. wide and

Your Home and
You
BY HELEN KENDALL.
Keeping in Touch.

At meeting of suburban club
women, held the day following Lady
Astor's arrival in the United States.
the members were asked how many
had read her speech in the morning
paper. 1t developed that only two
or three out of thirty women had
even glanced at the paper that morn
ing. Here was an American woman,
the first woman in the world to be
given a seat in the English parlia-
ment. with a ringing message for her
fellow countrywomen-and in an
alert community near New York city
only three out of thirty had read it!
Keeping in touch with the affairs
of the day is one of the first duties
of the new woman citizen. No bus
mess man thinks of beginning his
day without looking over the morn
ing paper and acquainting himself
with the status of national, state and
city affairs, the principal foreign
news and the editorial comment on
things in general. No woman should
begin her day without doing exactly
the same thing.
But. goodness protests a busy
mother. How can l? I've got to

in a wooden bowl. Don't skimp on
this labor; the chopping must be done
conscientiously. Season with salt and
