However attractive you may be, it is possible
20 make yourself lovelicr if you use the COM
plete "Pompeian Beauty Toilette"
First, touch of fragrant Pompeian Day
Cream. This is a vanishing cream that, when
worked we'll in, is protection for the skin and
delicate foundation to which powder adheres
evenly, and from which it will not easily rub off.
Then, apply Pompeian Beauty Powder. 1t
makes the skin beautifully fair and adds the
charm of delightful perfume.
Now bit of Pompeian Bloom for softly
glowing color and added sparkle in the eyes.
Lastly, dust over again with the powder in
order to subdue the Bloom. And instantly the
face is radiant with added youth and beauty.
If you use these Pompeian preparations to-
gether for Instant Beauty, you will obtain the
most natural effect. For great care has been
taken that the colors blend naturally.
Pompeian Lip Stick is of a rose petal shade
and adds yet another touch that will set off
your beauty.

had three colors, green, orange and
red, as in many cretonnes, try one
of the main colors as the new
shade, either all orange, all green
or all red, in this way the other
two colors will still fade into a
harmonious background. Be sure
to secure a light shade first, let
it dry, then re-dip; don't try for a
strong shade at first as you are
likely to find it too coarse and un-
pleasant. Study the color card
and the careful directions which
come with these dyes, and above
all practice and have patience!
Dyeing is a slow art!
AS you anticipate your Spring
cleaning and freshening Of the
house, look at your clothes and
furnishings with their home dyeing
in mind. AS you take down such a
pair of faded curtains, ask, "Can l
dye this a pretty yellow?" or some
other color. It very often hap
pens that the best quality mate
rails fade badly after exposure to
the sun, and all the labor Of max
ing such curtains, etc., will be
saved il they can only be re-dyed.
Odd colored pillow covers may be
quite transformed by choosing one
single color and dyeing them all
the same. The variations in the
original materials will only show
up as pretty changes. Take some
old faded goods, cut into. pillow
tops and dye bright orange, blue
or green for the Summer porch.
Faded coverIets or spreads can

be recut, dyed and bound with
new ribbon to give another
seasons service. One woman took
several old but still soft bed
spreads, and cut them in half
then she dyed each pink, blue or
yellow to go with each Summer
bedroom scheme; a binding of
satin ribbon and an embroidery
initial on each transformed them
into Summer "comfortables'' just
the right weight for hot night.
Table linen Of distinctive kind
for which you would pay large
price can be made of good towel
linen, home dyed in unusual shades
of soft green, yellow, or old blue,
and quickly made into runners"
and luncheon sets. Even rag rugs
can be home dyed by applying
carefully with soft brushes diff
ferent hot shades of dye to the
right spots or parts of pattern.
This of course needs care and
good art sense. Indeed, the pos
sibilities of home dyeing are limit
less to the woman with patience
and careful hands.

are given on the packages as to
the method for either cotton, silk

Have the right container and

or large enamel vessel which will
permit all the material to be en-
tirely covered during the process
must be used-a deep not shall

spoons or smooth wooden sticks or
rods are required for the stirring.

done on top of a gas stove whose

By Nine. JEANETTE

Today sat opposite young grim the street

a wealth of dark brown hair-but, oh, her
complexion!
The skin about her neck and her temples was
sallow and dark, while on her face she bad
powder and rouge of the shades that should be
used only by the fairest blonde.
How did long to sit beside her and say,
My dear, did you look in the mirror before
you came outs Don't you know thatit Is rsdIly
tragic to spoil your pretty face as you have
done today?"
For that is just the point. The proper. the
correct way to Use rouge and' powder IS the
studying>of your own particular type, and the
def accentuaring OF the color nature gave you.
Just take this girl, for example. Her COM
plexion, from what >ould SEE, where she had
neglected TO powder, must have been naturally
dark.
But good vanishing cream, such as Pom
peian Day Cream, carefully used over face and
neck would have softencd and prepared the
skin for the powder and rouge to blend natu-
rally. They would not have stopped abruptly
in the regular lines shown on this girls face.
Then the powder. She should have had the
rich, creamy Rachel Beauty Powder that
Pompeian has prepared for this dark type.
And for rouge, Pompeian Bloom the dark
shade made especially for brunertes

common sense IN choosing good, pure creams
and powders that are the correct shades, and
LITTLE care IN the way they are used is all that
is required.
Pompeian Orange Tinted Rouge is cha,m-
ing at all times, and you will find 1t particularly
good for daylight use.
Lip stick, too, plays an important part in
improving the appearance. If the shape of
your mouth is good, follow its curves with the
lip stick. If the lines are not good, draw the
lip stick from the inner side of the lips 10 the
outer edge, and blend with the finger tips.

 Picking up her small suitcase, ths girl started and then stepped back for the woman to lead the way.
 Not quite so fast-if you please. What is your name?'
 As the landlady's tone changed to sterper infection, the girl likewise grew dignified.

 "Where are you from?"

 By this time the strange dark eyes had done their work A steady glance from Anita Austin seemed to compel all the world to do her bidding. At any rate, Mrs. Adams took the suit case, and without a further word conducted the stranger upstairs.
 She took her into an attractive bedroom presumably made ready for the absent Lefty.
 "This will do" Miss Austin said, calmly. Will you send me up a tray of supper? 1 don't want much. and I prefer not to come down to dinner"

 Yes, thank you, that sounds good. Send it in half an hour.

 Well, what do you know about that!" Old Salt Adams cried, when, per, his wife related the episode.

 Meanwhile that girl" was eagerly lpeering out of her window. She tried to discern which were the lights of the college buildings, but through the still lightly falling snow, she could see but little. "Corinth, she whispered. "Oh, Corinth, what do you hold for me? What fortune or misfortune will you bring me? What fortune or misfor- tune shall I bring to others?
