THE BEAUTY
BOX
BY Helen FOllett-

In the windows OF eoiffure shops
in Paris you will observe the most
beautiful wigs, not only wigs Of
hair, but top-pieces composed of
spun glass, of metallic threads, OF
ribbons even. In this country we
see them only on the stage, but
French women wear them at social
affairs. In one evening at the
opera you will see half a dozen OF
these lovely make e-believes. The
average American woman Is
copy-cat; she is afraid to wear
anything that isn't generally on
display. The Frenchwoman makes
her own dress laws.
After the shampoo, look at the
comb. If there is a grey deposit

The file should be thin, long,

No chipping close above the ears,
no thinning out OF the hair at

enough of all that and, natural

close clipping. To the woman
who has struck to the hoyish

good fun. She is suddenly aware
of the fact that every few weeks
she seems to have less face.
