cinating or more interesting woman in
this country than Mrs. Pinchot and
according to her own belief her sue
cess is largely due to the application of
first aid from beauty parlor at the
critical moment.
There's No Titan About 1t
In those days Mrs. Pinchot was Cor
nelia Bryce of Newport News and her
handicap was beautiful stunning,
magnetic sister. AS I have said. Cor
nelia wasn't fading-not at all. She
was too young to fade, in the ordinary
acceptation of the term, but she had
white skin and perfectly colorless hair.
lashes and brows, She was tall and
thin, as she still is and she realized
that she didn't register when she en-
tered a room. If people looked up. they
promptly looked down again. If they
were introduced to her they had to
be introduced second time before her
personality rang the bell Cornelia re-
allied all this perfectly. There never
has been anything wrong with Cor
nelia's brain. She was born smart
just as she was born colorless.
And being smart. and neither vain
nor jealous, Cornelia reasoned the
whole thing out. She could never be
beautiful. But she could be different
quite different fro many woman in the
world In fact. she was different in
side. 1t was only exterior that she
looked average. People must know,
the first moment they looked at her.
that she was different She would
hang a sign out, so to speak, to notify
them-something that would say quite
plainly Here is woman who is
different. She will interest YOU"
And, so she had her hair dyed n
bright, glowing, seductive red--a shade
of red that is neither Titan. nor au-
burn nor golden-a nc -beheld,

SDid 1t Change Vibrations?
In doing this Cornelia changed the
whole current of her life Color ex-
perts say she changed her vibrations,
And certainly she set shining example
to other. women. She had probably
never experienced any dull moments
from that day to this. Consciously or
unconsciously. in the mixing of that
subtle shade of red she has expressed
the completely and the elusiveness of
her own temperament. If she ever
goes to the White House to live we
must introduce Cornelia crimson. BY
THAT time we will be tired of our stock
ings in 1.-The new atmosphere shade
and will be quite ready for something
vivid and honest. That's precisely
what ,Cornelia crimson is. And it's
distinctive. You could never mistake
it for anything else.
1t wasn't long before Cornelia an
nounced her differentness to the world
before she registered very definitely IN
the consciousness of at least one very
important person, that person being
Mr.. Clifford Pinchot.
Yes, that trip to the beauty parlor,
back in Newport News days, was the
turning point in Cornelia's career.
The beauty specialists agree that
they would have much better chance

say again, what / have said before.
that Cornelia, done in plaster or
marble and hand-colored. should be to
the modern beauty shop what the wood

sign and a symbol, to guide the foot
steps and light the way of uncertain
travellers on life's arduous journey.
