Mrs. BUSH-BROwN is holding an
-'I exhibition of her portrait
drawings at the Doll and Richards
Gallery. Boston, from November 81
to December 4. Referring to this ex
hibition. the art critic Of the Boston
Transcript has said:
THE likeness of the sculptor,
Daniel Chester French, attracts at
tention because of it's sympathetic
treatment, the subject being shown
in studio attire holding small figure
in one hand. Another portrayal of
immediate interest is that of Mrs.
Charles Evans Hughes. In this, as
in many of the exhibits, very SIM
pie scheme of coloring has been
adopted, the tinted paper being
touched with colored crayon only
sufficiently to present realistic ap-
pearance. while the leading lines
have been stressed. Much of the
charm of the drawings lies in their
quiet reserve. In these, as in the
children's portraits, a number of
which are also to be seen, Mrs. Bush
Brown shows herself to be an able
craftsman. In fact. she is widely
known as a portrait painter. Her
study for large portrait of Lincoln
at Blue Ridge, n. c., is among the
exhibits, while other likenesses in
oil are in various public collections"
Among the other exhibits set forth
are portraits of Michio Ito, Nine
Hubrecht, Judge Warwick and Mario

eAdaed Beauty
1t is quite possible for ere,y woman to
add something to her quota of beauty by
observing daily the simplest routine OF
personal care.

You are facing the months Of traitor
GUS winds and vigorous temperatures.
This is the admirable time for those
women who have not already done SO to
form daily beauty habits:
I. The daily bath.
2. The daily exercise.
2. The daily devotion to few minutes
Of relaxation.
4. The nightly use of Pompeian Nigh.
Cream for the end-of-the-day cleansing.
s. And the intelligent preparation Of
your toilet for the day.
When You are Ready TO Dress
for the Day
Use Pompeian Day Cream before you
apply your powder. 1t is vanishing
cream with properties in it that at once
protect and freshen the skin. 1t gives
your skin a cool, firm feeling tina. is dis
tinctly revivifying. 1t prevents that dis
agreeable oily appearance noticed so often
after powder has been on for a short time.
And the powder you apply over the base
of Pompeian Day Cream will remain soft
and velvety for hours.
The Complete Toilette
Don't be afraid to use plenty of POM
peian Beauty Powder-plenty to cover
well the face and neck-and the hands
and arms too if desired.
After every particle of skin is covered,
20 all over it again with fresh cloth or
puff, and smooth of all snpeyfaoas par
hieies.
With this correct foundation you are
ready to add the touches that are like the
exquisite high-lights of a picture. Rcmem-
her at all times that the use of any cos
n,etic is distasteful when it is too visible.
Pompeian Bloom is rouge compact
that has gained a wide following because
the shades in which it is made are so like
the natural eoloring Of naturally colorful
cheeks. But even the most natural-eolored
rouge must be applied in anatural-looking
way or you lose your delightful illusion.
