Ladies Of old China Gave Us
Manv OF T0davs Cosmetic Tbs
no1UddyS.

While fans are still among this
seasons smartest fashion acceSso-
ries, they have long been popular
with the elegant ladies of China,
who have used them for centuries to
draw attention to their pampered
hands and long, tinted fingernails.
The first women in the world to
practice the manicure, the Chinese
ladies used the essence of the indel-
ible Fen Hsien Hua Fung Shien
Hwa) flower with which to tint
their nails.
Like their bound, impractical, in
credibly small feet upon which they
could barely walk were their fan
tastically long, carefully nurtured
fingernails which rendered them vir-
tually helpless. Often over inches
in length, the Chinese ladies pro-
tected their treasured nails with be-
jeweled nail guards to prevent
chipping or breaking during those
rare moments when they saw fit to
raise finger. Talented and obsequi-
GUS amahs travelled to the elegant
'pavillions of women" to remove the
stain of the Feng Hsien Hua flower
and apply fresh color to their Ian
guild, beautiful hands.
With ample time and servants
with which to while away the hours,
the Chinese ladies were past masters

in the art of makeup. Looking upon
it as practical art with which to
remodel their faces into the classic
types of that time, they were able
to paint their faces in such a man
ner that they appeared incredibly
dainty and flowerlike.
A light cake makeup, extraordi-
narily similar to present-day make
up, was the popular powder -founda-
ton. Known as the goose egg pow
der it was compressed in the form
of an egg and applied to the face
with cotton puffs. Snow white in
color, it appealed to the Chinese
beauties who favored the pink and
white" look thousands of years ago
The first to invent paper, red
paper was rubbed on the lower lip
only to make the mouth appear as
small and bright as a cherry" It
was swooshed ingeniously from the
cheeks to under the eyebrows to re-
duce the size of the face. When
red felt was invented, it replaced the
paper as favorite beauty aid Su-
perstitious about plucking, the Chi
neSe ladies used string with which
to arch their eyebrows in the gentle
moon" shape. The black willow
twig was then employed to accentu-
ate their brows.
Three types Of hair-dos describe
Evening star., 1949-01-02
Short Hair
No Problem

The revolution in fashion brought
in its wake a revolution in hair
styles. Long, flowing locks were
shorn and short cap coiffures were
very much the rage. Course, every
one doesn't look their best with a
very, very short hairdo. But most
Teenas have found that short hair
is much more f1attering to them
than their longer bobs were.
With the change in silhouette,
Teena discovered that a change had
to be made in her hair style Always
alert to the things that will make
her happier with herself, she took
readily to the new trend However,
one thing did not make her too
happy. 1t was the frequent going
to have her hair trimmed, shaped,
etc. For the most important thing
about short hairdos is that they
should look sleek, close to the head,
and be perfectly shaped In addi-
ton, soft. natural permanent wave
was much to be desired.
Now, for her older sister, it might
not be hardship to make those
frequent visits to the beauty en-
porium. But where Teenas are con-
cerned, they must make do" with
what little allowance Is at hand.
Quick to the rescue came the an
nouncement that on the market
there was a "taperette, long
handled comb which encased a keen
razor blade. This blade would thin,
shape and taper the hair and get
rid of split or dried ends. A truly
professional way to take care of
your locks at home. The old, bunchy
homemade hair style was no longer
Teena's lot.
Teena's adaptability proved itself
also in the use of the home perma-
nent. Simple, follow direc-
tions have made it easier for her to
prove that she doesn't mind a little
bit extra to insure looking we'll
groomed and smartly coiffed at
all times.

How about thank-you letters for

Even if it gets to be the middle of
January, you still must take pen
In hand.
Teeners have a bad record as
letter writer's. But lack of prac-

notes of thanks. Cause it's tops in
discourtesy, kids, to accept gifts
without acknowledging 'em, sooner

In acknowledging gifts, think of

Created Fans in 9Th Century.
The fan was first originated by
the Chinese in the 9Th century AID,
after which it was copied by the
willy Japanese, who brought it fame
through their smiling geisha girls.
While the fan has generally de-
scribed the coquette in Japan, it
has long stood for erudition and
culture in China, where it is used
popularity by male scholars. Chinese
ladies were seldom without fans
with which to keep their complex
ions cool and lovely. At first, varia-
tions Of the nat "oval' and hour
glass" fan-types appeared. In the
7th and 9th centuries, the folding
fan" was designed upon elegant
frames Of bamboo, ivory and coral.
Since fans were considered as orna-
mental and valuable as jewelry,
their mountings were made of a
fabulous variety of opulent mate
rials. Expensive handmade paper
was fashionable as were silks, san
dlewood and cotton. The Chinese
also originated the feather" fan
and the resultant "fan" dance
though the women wore voluminous
gowns during the dignified Chinese
version, in which men also partici-
pated, and the fans were usually
twirled rather than waved!
Coral Popular With Mandarins.
Coral was also recognized as q
color Of elegance, denoting high
casts. Both Chinese ladies and gen.
tlemen were exceedingly partial to
this warm, exciting shade which was
so flattering to their skintones as
we'll as the softly muted hues of the
incompatible Oriental fabrics of
their gowns. The round bead on the
top of Mandarin's hat was made
of coral. Priceless fans were adorned
with exquisitely carved coral. Chi
nese gentlemen preferred the glow
and luster of coral for the many
jewels with which they adorned
themselves daily. Used freely for
ornaments and flgurines, Chinese
ladies wore coral combined with
their rare jade and precious pearls.
Coral seals are still used extern
sively in China. Since courtesy
names" have long been considered
more polite in China than the famil-
iarity Of using a friends first name,
it has been the custom Cuntil re-
Gently when the generalissimo
banned it, for man to go by two
or three different names! The
courtesy name" was usually i'm
printed with a seal carved from
coral which was used more fire.
quently and freely than the written
signature. A coral seal was Often
used in opening bank account and
all transactions thereafter were
valid so long as they were made
with the same seal.
