BY JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON

n We been writing so much lately about how
to b~eautify the eyes by artificial methods
that it might not be a bad idea to give you
some suggestions for actually improving the con-
means.
The latest dictum in beauty circles calls for
luxuriant. but not scraggy or heavy eyebrows.
There is a vast difference, you know, between
thick, healthy eyebrows and brows that are too
heavy or unruly. I've mentioned before in this
column that the thin hairline is a thing of the
past in the beauty world. This does not mean,
however, that one may be one bit less careful of
the grooming Of the brows. In fact, one must be
more meticulous about the line than ever before
because the definite eyebrow line necessitates an
unblemished and clear outline. If heaviness is to
be avoided.

ing up babies is that mothers are told so many
things that are not true. The friends who give
the advice are sincere. Of course, but many times
they have permitted tradition to displace COM
