V. E. Meadows the Hollywood Expert Makeup Man,
Showing How to Use Cosmetics

A 8 a rule, women make up with
"A a sweet, loving kiss, but when
1t comes to making up their faces,
well that's another story. Mr..
Meadows says that most. women
don't know how. He's man
and that g real mean of him.
But he knows. He's an expert
and his rules and methods are
closely followed by all those stars
Of the silver screen, who value
their beauty and make the most
Of it.
Not only do these professional
women come to him for his ad-
vice, but many of our society
leaders write to him for inforna-
ton in the art of makeup.
Every woman wants to know
how to improve her face: she
wants to enhance the beauty she
already has, and Mr.. Meadows
says that women, almost without
exception, use too much makeup
on the street.
The faces Of hundreds Of act
resses have been made up by
his agile fingers. Without excep'
ton, he is looked upon as the wiz
ard Of makeup.
Mr.. Meadows has made up Mary
Philbin, Mary Pickford, the Tai
madge sisters, Clara Bow, Betty
Bronson, Lon CLANCY, Reginald
Denny, Norman Kerry and hun
dreds Of other stars. He has also
consulted with Richard Bennett.
Gilda Gray, Ann Pennington,
scores Of Follies girls, Lenore Ul-
rich and many other stars Of the
stage. He has talked to them
about street makeup and what
thew should use for evening.
FIRST, WASH 1T!
Hundreds Of women come and
they say, What Is the first thing
T should do to improve my face"
And I say to them all, WASH 1T!
The way women today paint and
powder is disgraceful. No make
I'D is good makeup If 1t shows-T
am referring to the women you
see every day on the street.
That's the secret of good make
up. It improves the face with
out the appearance or artificlanty.
Why should women paint up like
a savage? Everybody knows they
are 'painted. Anybody can buy
cosmetics Of some kind and paint.
"The result of such uniform
painting Of the features is lack
of individuality, Of fineness Of fea-
lures and Of character and ex-
preston. A face is not mobile for
every little shade Of expression If
the powder and paint are slapped
on thick. The faces you pass on
the street today look like masks.
There Is eyebrow pencil, lipstick,
eye-shadowing and eye-lining. The
average woman has enough ON
her face so that II It were proper
ly applied she would be ready FOR
a stage appearance.

Mr.. Meadows views his sub

fore beginning his work. The
cruel blue glass, two inches square,
shows every defect in the face
and it reduces the colors to the
blacks and whites in which they
will photograph. Through this
glass he sees the high lights OF
the faces, the defects, the beau
ties to be accumulated and played
up. He finds uneven jaws,

everything which might photo

takes place under the livid blue

TONES DOWN DEFECTS
First comes thick yellow or
pink foundation cream, depending
on the color of the skin of the
subject. Then with splashes. OF
red paint, defects are toned down,
chins are made less prominent.
Then the eyelids are painted to
match exactly the color of the
eyes. Next is the thick coating
of powder which is patted into
the foundation cream. The powder
is yellow. The surplus is brushed
off with a fine brush, and then
comes the red for the lips, the
lining of the eyes, of the eye
lashes and brows.
IF makeup is put on properly,
whether it is for the stage, the
screen or the street, it will remain

Dream of Developing
Atom Pouer Realized?

A Dutchman has recently received a
patent for running an engine on power
obtained from the atom. He has dis
covered that if mineral sands contain-
ing titanium are heated to a temporal
ture of 1000 degrees Centigrade the
atoms disintegrate, and an enormous
amount of heat is generated. The sand
is heated in small electric furnace,
and the heat caused by the sudden
breaking up of the atom is forced by
pump through tubes that heat the
water in boiler, and supply the pow
er to drive an engine or turbine. This
patent has passed through the patent
office almost unnoticed, but it is actu-
ally the first stepping stone to the
realization of the power from the atom
which all the world is waiting for. 1t
may easily develop into the most dra-
matte achievement of the century,.

The Smithings, coincident with
young Smithing's admission to partner
ship In the firm, had moved to more
pretentious neighborhood. In their
first few days there they made two
acquaintance, Mary Jane Ammons
and Mrs. Porter Warrington. Ac-
Quaintance with Mary Jane, the romp-
ing ive-year-old daughter of their next
door neighbor, was simple and in
evitable. An Introduction to Mrs.
Wellington, prominent and influen-
tial clubwoman, had been effected
through a mutual friend.
One afternoon Mr.. Smithing saw
Mary Jane race across their front
yard. A moment later there was a
knock at the door. He tiptoed to the
door, turned the knob cautiously, then
suddenly threw it open, remaining at
the same time in hiding behind it.
There was moment of utter ST.

Mistaken Kindness

Probably nothing is more annoying
to a pigeon fancier that the well-in-
tentioned persons act of kindness in
locking up carrier pigeon that has
''fallen by the wayside." Usually the
bird has merely descended to rest
after long flight and will continue
on its destination If released. 1t is
the tendency of most persons, how
ever, to imprison the bird until the
owner claims 1t. Pigeons racing over
long distances frequently have been

Gold Discovery Due
TO ShreuOd Observer

Gold was discovered in Australia,
the great island continent, for the
first time about seventy-five years ago,
by Edward Hargreaves, who was
California forty-niner, and who was
struck with similarity between the
strata and rocks of the district of
Corobolas, near Bathurst, Australia,
and those of the Golden state.
When he returned from California
he began digging and in 1851, on Feb
ruary IL, he struck gold in consider
able quantities. The news caused In
tense excitement throughout New
South Wales, thousands fiocking to
the find"
A few months later an aborigine
found large lump of gold among a
heap of quartz, and soon after miner
found 122 pounds of gold In three
blocks of quartz. Gold to the value
of $4S,0O0,000 was shipped to England
In the first two years after Its discov-
cry by HargreaSes. Chicago journal.

There followed long TRADE from

Showing of" Seldom a
Trait Of Sferner Sex

Modesty In man seems to be inner
ent. 1t appears at very early age
and is apparently Independent Of
training. The little girl begins to
show pleasure in being noticed and
In wearing nice clothes. The little
boy is the shyest creature imaginable.
His one longing is to look exactly like
all other boys and to be lost in the
mob, is the assertion of Ramsey Ira
QUAR-, In the Atlantic Monthly.
Most boys pass through agonies on
going first to school, because their col
lar is not quite the right pattern or
their tie is the wrong color. 1t is not
until fairly late age that they learn
to have an individuality. Many men,
indeed, remain boys in this all their
lives, each one is OF r'the crowd" and
unfortunately our present system Of
education tends to keep them SO.
One Of the difficulties In introduc-
ing the boy scout movement into Can
ada was the shyness Of the boys. They
were ashamed to show their knees or
elbows. In the United States the boy
scouts still modestly cover these parts.
Girls. as we know, have no such shy
ness.
Wherever man is supreme, as In Tur-
key or India or classic Greece, he en-
forces modesty on women. Wherever
woman rebels against his rule he de-
uounces each new thing she does as
immodest or unwomanly.

Locomotipe's Breathing

The putting of a railway engine is
common enough sound, but few peo-
pie know by what it is regulated.
Actually the number of puffs made by
a locomotive in the course Of a jour
ney depends on the circumference Of
its driving wheels.
No matter what the speed of the
train may be, the engine will give four
puffs for every complete turn Of the
drying wheels. The wheels may vary
in circumference, but the average is
20 feet.
With average driving wheels and q
speed of 80 miles an hour, locomo-
tive wiz give $50 puffs a minute, or
$500 puts an hour, the driving wheels

NerO Use for Masks

Gas masks of the type that pro-
tected soldiers during the World war
were pressed into service by crew
Of workers in London while hunting
leaks In the city gas mains. The
hazard of the job was increased by the
necessity of working in deep trenches
where vapors had insufficient chance
to escape In case flows of considerable
pressure were encountered. With the
masks, the workers were able to make
q thorough search.
