The taste for green eyes has been
shared by many Of the greatest men in
literature. Dante compared the eyes of
his Beatrice to emeralds Shakespeare
speaks several times in praise of green,
eyes, and in "Two Noble Kinsmen"
Emilia, addressing the goddess Diana,
says:
ooh, vouchsafe with that thy rare
green eye, which never yet beheld things
maculatep'
A writer in the Quarterly Review who
has made profound study of eyes writes:
Dark blue eyes are common in persons
of refined, delicate or effemnate natures
light blue, and much more, gray eyes, in
the hardy and active; greenish eyes have
generally the same meaning as the gray;
hazels are the more usual indications of
a mind masculine, vigorous and pro-
Almost every man has some impression
or prejudice concerning the moral quail
ties that accompany certain colors of
eyes. The people of every country have
ancient folk rhymes on this subject. One
which has long been current in England
puts the facts in very plain language and

The eye has, however, a certain IN.
trinsic beauty of its own. This consists
almost entirely of color and healthiness
There is hardly any appreciable differ

ance is mainly due to the wide opening
OF the lids. Such beauty as the eye pos.
sesses in itself seems to be purely physi-
cal and not reflection of the soul A
perfectly made artificial eye might be
almost equally beautiful.
If the artists were to give the prize
for beauty of expression, they would be
giving it really to the woman who had
the most beautiful complexion and fea-
lures. It was, therefore, necessary to de.
eide that they would put the intrinsic
beauty of the eyes in the first place, while
giving expression its full value. To keep
such standard constantly in view was
exceedingly difficult.
The beauty Of an eye depends largely
upon its harmony or contrast with sur
rounding colors. The eye takes up color
from surrounding colors of the same tone
or stands out by contrast. No eye is
black, but dark brown eye in combina-
tion with thick black hair will appear a
deep black.
Hazel eyes are usually a mixture of
light brown and blue. A blue dress or
ribbon around the hair will make such an
eye look quite blue, while brown dress
will make it look brown.
The Washington times., 1922-09-03

With sallow complexion light brown
eyes will appear muddy, although they
may be really quite bright. In such
case 1t may be desirable to brighten up
the complexion and darken the eyebrows.
On the other hand, dark eyes with a
rather sallow complexion will produce the
olive-tinted Oriental effect which ie otter
much admired.
The cases mentioned have depended on
agreement of color. Other effects may
be due to the law of simultaneous con.
trast. In these cases one color calls up
its complementary color. If you wear a
green dress of certain shade it will give
your complexion and eyes pinkish tinge.
Similarly If you wear pink dress it may
give to light brown eyes a greenish tinge,
There are hundreds of possible combina-
tions.
When it comes to deciding which color
is the more beautiful, the difficulties of
agreement are almost insuperable. It is
frequently asserted that dark eyes-dark
brown or dark blue-indicate a more
sentimental and emotional type of char.
acter, while light blue and light gray eyes
indicate a more intellectual makeup.
Some men assert that as an emotional
character is more appropriate to a wo-

probably reflects the ideas of a large
number of common people:
"Blue eye-beauty.
"Black eye-steal pie.
"Gray eye-greedy gut.
"Brown eye-love pie"
A modern poet has expressed his ideas
in more refined manner thus:
"Black eyes most dazzle at ball,
Blue eyes most please at evening fall;
The black a conquest soonest gains,
The blue a conquest best retains;
The black bespeaks lovely heart,
Whose soft emotions soon depart;
The blue a steadier flame betray,
Which burns and lives beyond day;
The black the features best disclose,
In blue my feelings all repose;
Then each let reign without control,
The black all mind, and blue all soul"
1T is significant that the exquisite poet
Keats expressed supreme admiration
for blue eyes in the following lines:
"Blue! gentle cousin of the forest green,
Marries to green in all the sweetest
flowers,
Forget-me-not, the Bluebell, and that
queen ",
Of secrecy, the Violet, what strange
powers
Hast thou, as a mere shadowi BIT how
great,
When in an Eye thou art alive with fatep'
Opinion as to what color of eye is the
most beautiful differs not only among in
dividuals but as between different CEN
tufies. The ancient writers from the
Greeks and Romans down to Shakespeare
generally admire gray or green eyes, while
the modern poets grow enthusiastic over
dark blue and black eyes. Byron spoke
for them when he wrote:
"Her eyes dark charm 'twere vain to
tell,
But gaze on that of the gazelle,
It will assist thy fancy well;
As large, as languishingly dark,
But soul beam'd forth in every
spark"
The idea that black-eyed persons are
endowed with great warmth of feeling
enjoys the authority Of skilled observers.
Henry T. Finck, the distinguished author
of Romantic Love and Personal Beauty
writing on this point says:
'1nasmuch as black-eyed southern
nations, are on the whole more impulsive
than northern races, it may be sai> in a

general way that black eye indicates a
passionate disposition"
Black-eyed women have also been noted
for their combative spirit. A famous his
torical Scotch woman was the Countess
of Marc known as "Black Agnes" on
account of her black hair and eyes. She
held the City of Dunbar for five years
against King Edward ILL.,. who was con-
quering the rest of the country. She was
a terror in battle and her deeds are re-
corded in an ancient ballad in which the
King is supposed to say:
"Came I early, came I late.
found Black Agnes at the gate"
We must not regard the Mohammedans
as an example, but as they have given
great attention to the matter it is inter-
esting to learn that they believe Heaven
to be peopled with virgins with chaste
mien and large black eyes,"
The women of the East tinge their
eyelids with black powder to make them
appear blacker. Some Partisan women
showing themselves far in advance of the
East now employ powders to turn their
eyes green.
The distinguished artists, who have
been considering this subject, hold that
light-colored eye should make a strong
contrast with surrounding hair and COM
plexion. A light gray or blue eye needs
a dark eyebrow to give the finest effect.
A poet says that when he gazes into a
gray eye he feels that he is looking into
the very depths of the soul.
Girls who are fortunate enough to
possess beautiful light gray eyes can easily
obtain the necessary shade of eyebrows.
Eyebrows and eyelashes are of supreme
Importance in enhancing the color and
beauty Of the eye. 1t is again curious
to know that the ancients admired eye
brows that formed a continuous line,
whereas to-day we consider them a mark
of violent temper. The prevailing taste
is for two fine separate regular crescents,
finished off with the razor and the eye
brow pencil if necessary.
Leigh Hunt considers it doubtful
whether "the eyebrows were always de-
vised to form separate arches or to give
an arched character to the brow consid-
cred in unison. Perhaps there should be
a double curve-the particular one over
the eye and the general one in the look
altogether"
The distinguished committeeman have
learned many interesting facts about
eyes. Many animals have beautiful eyes,
but there is only one animal whose eye
bears much resemblance to that of man.
That is the pig.
The eyes of animals differ from those
of human beings, principally in the pro-
portion of pupil, iris and white, to one
another Few, if any, animals have the
same power of seeing the contour and
modelling of an object as man. Their
eyes are largely used in looking over the
ground from side to side.
The pigs eye, however, shows a re-
markable resemblance to mans in its
roundness and the size of the iris. The
resemblance is increased by the pigs eye
lashes.
But that does not help the committee
to decide who has the most beautiful ewes
in Paris. M

PARIS, Aug. 2
THE late Lucie Lanthelme, the
tiful Partisan actress, whose II
death created a worldwide Sc
ton, was famed for her beautiful eye
1t was generally stated and acce
that she had the most beautiful eye
Paris. One of the phrases often uset
ner admirers was "the haunting eye
Lanthelme." This suggested thar a
who had once looked into
Lanthelme's eyes was haunted
by them ever afterward. There
seems to have been truth in the
saying, for many strange events
and tragedies occurred after
her death to those who had
known her. Her millionaire
husband. Alfred Charles Ed
wards, died from grief at heI
loss.
But Lucie Lanthelme has
oeen dead for several years and
Paris is full of beautiful living
women. Is there not one OF l. !
Them who can show eyes as
beautiful as hers? Strange to
,ay, there Is not one who has
gained the same celebrity as the
dead actress, but there are, of
course. plenty whose eyes are
greatly admired.
The subject began to be dis
cussed freely in Paris and re.
Gently competition was started
to decide "who has the most
beautiful eyes in Paris?" A
committee of some of the most
distinguished artists IN france
was formed to decide this in
teresting question. 1t included
Paul Helleu, Albert Guillaume,
Leon Bakst, Albert Besnard,
Lucien Wallet and George Bar
bier.
All Parisians were invited to Gil,
pictures with full description of the
they believed to have the most bes
tul eyes. The committee satisfied tn
selves from the picture whether the ca
date reached a certain standard OF
chritude and was worthy of further
sideration. They then proceeded t
conscientious, personal examination of
candidate. The prize was to be a 81
900 pearl necklace.
More than 5000 pictures were
mitted. After tremendous labors and
haustive study the committee finally
lected six women as having supren
beautiful eyes. These were Mile. Pc
We're, Mile. Dufos, Mile. Jardine,
Savadge, Mile. Ernestine Guy and
Jean Fisher, whose pictures are showr
this page.
But the members of the committee
found themselves quite unable to az
on one girl as having the most beaut
eyes in Paris. When they had sii
down the mass of candidates to Il
six, there was always one artist
would stand up immovably and &"
that a certain candidate had more bea
full eyes than anybody in the world.
there the competition rests for the p
ent.
1t was found an astonishingly diff,
thing to decide what constitutes
beauty of woman's eyes. We are
customed to speak about the wonder
expressiveness of certain eyes, but a
matter of fact the eye has in itself
expression. Its so-called expression ar
