Colors for Blondes. ‘Whether she be 15 or 50, there is one question which always interests the woman who would look her best, and that is which colors are best sulted to her. Every woman realizes how dis- mally she can fail in the selection of her gowns if she tries to look exactly like some one else. She may see some one, for instance, who looks adorable in a froock of vivid red, but if the blonde miss decides that she, too, will adorned in that manner, she is pretty sure to be disappointed. Her colors must be chosen with regard to her own | particular type, and just because | another may look stunning in & bright | red frock or perhaps one which is of greenish yellow, it is no sign that milady should seléct something of that ue. The pure blonde with fair skin and pale gold or flaxen hair is quite in luck this season, for she is of the type who can wear all black with distinction, Black coats, black afternoon gowns, as well as black frocks for evening wear are very much in the mode. The fair blonde may also use creamy or ivory shades, pale i’e)lnw. golden hubs, pure blue or green in all shades, orchid, blue- violet, flesh, old rose and most shades in pink and pastel tones. If her eyes are blue she would be wise to wear a good deal of that color in her costumes, for it will bring out more vividly the blue or violet of her ABE MARTIN SAYS Holdin' a home together is career enough fer a dozen women. “Hello, how's it comé I've got a dol- lar?

For this reason the blonde with light blue eyes should always favor the lighter blues when selecting colors .for various costumes. The true blonde with be | blue eyes will also find that light, soft eyes wi belge tans and greens, as well as light tones, become her. Many blondes have eyes which are & light brown or harel. ‘As the color of one's eyes is one of the chief factors in the cholce of colors to wear, this type of blonde will nl}:_xnfly choose colors that are different from those worn by her blue-eyed sister. But as every t; seems to have been considered in the new shades for the Winter wardrobe, the brown-eyed blonde also finds the color best suited to her. For never be- fore has bmwnmszen quite s6 much in vogue as it is y. o%e entire range of browns is de- cidedly smart at the present time. Those which are being particular); stressed are the tones with a hint o red, such as terracotta, brownish reds, rust and nut browns. ~The brown- yed blonde will find that she can wear these shade beautifully. Other colors suited to her type are tans in eévery hue, brongze green, gréen brown, delft blue, dove gray, almond green, greenish yellow, raisin, wisteris, blue violet, maize, soft brownish reds, ligh fawn and white, especially oyst X ‘The woman with uhenw‘\:ll:mfle }{l": ay-green or blue eyes, a_sallo flnby !t'«r: her complexian may find it somewhat difficult to select becoming colors.

I allow them to look at it for one minute and then ask them ques- tions pertaini to it, such as, “How many men are in the picture?” “What are they doing?” “Was there a car in the picture?” “What color was it?” And 86 on, until I have exhausted most of the possible questions.

ON!.' of those statisticlans, who are always taking the joy out of life by pining a price-tag on all of our little indulgences, has just been figuring ngt how much money it costs the men. in this country every year to beautify themselves. So many millions for keeping a razor edge on their coat sleeves and trousers. So many millions for shaves and haircuts. 8o many more millions for facials and manicures. So many @dditional millions for their tonics and lo- tions and perfumes and sweet-scented powders, and so on, and on. It comes to a truly staggering sum in the aggregate, but what of it? Who begrudges it? Every dollar of it is money well spent, and when one looks about and sees the number of sloppy, slouchy men who are in crying need of a barber and the presser, one feels that a few additional billions could be expended with profit to the individuals and pleasure to the beholders in sprucing up the masculine sex. And pray why shouldn’t men prettify themselves? Heaven knows they need it, for not every man is born a John Barrymore any more than every woman is born a Billie Dove. Most of us need to circumvent Naturé and supply through art the deficiéncies that the stingy jade left out of our make-up. gut while women havée always painstakingly, and with suffering and prayer and fasting, striven to make themselves easy upon the eyes of the public, men have been content to remain as homely as God made them. WOM‘EN endure the agony of statvation in order to retain a girlish figure. They undergo the tortures of being scalped to have a permanent wave put in their hair. They spend much thought on the lines and. colors they can wear. But men cheerfully let themselves get bay-windowed, with rolls of fat overflowing their collars. They make no effort to camouflage their bald pates, and if they are getting gray nothing on earth could keep them from wearing pepper-and-salt suits, nor could an act of the legislature prevent them from dressing in tans and browns if they have sandy complexions and hair. Why men devote so little intelligent personal consideration to their ap- arance, nobody knows. Sometimes one thinks it is because they have so ittle vanity that they never look in & mirror. Sometimes one thinks it i§ be- cause they are superhumanly conceited and consider themselves ravishingly handsome just as they are o that they don't need any adventitious aids to their beauty, and that any further adornment would be as superfluous as gliding the lily or painting the rose. At any rate, it is mm!ort(nf to learn that men have taken to frequenting the beauty shops and are spend nq millions a year on having themselves fur- bished up. Certainly the world will be a more attractive place in which to live when every man counts his calories and covers his shining dome with a toupee and generally makes of himself a thing of beauty and a joy forever. And, without doubt, when men take up improving their appearance in a serious way, it will do much toward preventing the disillusionment of wives and keep them from going on & stillhunt for affinities. For one of the main things that make wives tired and causs them to wonder whatéver made them marry the ones they did, is that they get weary of looking at a husband who re- sembles something that the cat brought in. No other one plece of advice is rubbed more insistently into the con- sclousness of the bride than the fact that to keep her husband looking at her she must keep herself looking good. She is told over and over and over again that she must look tidy and neat and sweet and fresh and clean and all dolled up, and that no love will survive dirty kimonos and run-down-at-the-heel slippers and curl papers and cold cleam. 1t is all true enough. A frowsy woman, who looks as if she needed to b2 run through a steam laundry, is & repulsive object. But it doesn't seem to have occurred to the man who so_critical of his wife's looks that she is ally sensitive to his and that she doesn't any more enjoy spending an eve- ning looking at a fat man in a soiled collar and in hl% stocking feet and with a two-day stubble of beard on his face than he would in contemplating a fat woman in & dirty wrapper. o i SO when men begin to keép themselves fixed up for wife and come home all shaven and shorn and powdered and pérfumed, as they used to do in their days, why, it is going to usher in a glad new in domesticity and t of divorce. For the reason that many a wife doesn't take the trouble to keep her husband is because he has be“m to look like such a moth-eaten, damaged article that she doesn't feel that he is worth houséroom any more. And certainly it i8 going to brace men up and Ruc fresh energy and more pep into them to devote more time and money and thought to fixing themselves up, for there is moral support in knowing that we are looking our best. Every woman knows that when she comes out of a session at a beauty shop she feels 10 years younger and as if she had just inhetited & million dollars. And it will be the same way with men.

Does & man fall in love with a girl at “first sight,” or is it necessary for him to have ever so many once-overs before his eyes flash upon his heart? We hear often about a man who fell in love with the girl the moment his eyes rested upon her. Then he knew that she was meant for him. We do not hear so much about those other meén who had to look & great many times before their eéyes were sure they were right. In the meantime, they had to look at some others just to be sure they were making no mistake. As a matter of fact, a man who falls in love with a girl need not take his tumble the first time he glimpses her. Indeed a man may be with a girl quite & while and not be certain as to the color of her eyes, and as for discerning all the shades of gold and corn, amber and seal in her hair—well, that's too much to expect of him. Nevertheless, I believe that when love does arise inh man’s heart it is when he takes his first true look at the girl. Before that, he was only glancing or squinting. But when he sees her as she is, he falls in love with her, if he’s going to do it at all. Love s not an experience that moves along step by step like a donkey on & shaky bridge. Love takes the plunge or does not move at all. It doesn’t dawh on a man one rosy tint after another, but shoots into his sky like a day-spring. Real love at real first sight i8 quite the thing to expect, with the human heart, Knowl#dge may be built up little by little, and habit may be formed by little deeds, but love is & full experi- ence which of a sudden fllls and over flows the human heart, That's why it -D*)esrs at first sight. t may be that the men are near sighted or that women practice con- cealment, but it takes a man a long time to get the view which is going to wrench his heart. But when a man's eyes are so en- lightened that he gets the love close-up, he sees that there's only one girl in the world for him. One real look was enough, &nd it may be that it was not until the girl was ready to let him see in her eyes just what she was that he got the.glimpse which settled him. M‘v dvice to the men is to keep on looking. Among the other looks will be the real first one which will hypnotize their maculine orbs into love. ‘Thére are many days in a month, but it may be that several will have to pass before you have a clear one, (Copyright, 1920 “Folks'll agree there's a fool in every FEATURES. Famous Woman Bosses of History Anne Clarges, Blacksmith's Daughter, Who Helped to Put Charles II on England’s Throne. BY J. P. GLASS. “SUSPECTING SOMETHING WAS AFOOT, ANNE HID HERSELF BEHIND A CURTAIN AND DISCOVERED EVERYTHING.” Strangely, Charles IT ascended the not flaunt what she thought was throne of England largely through the efforts of a woman whose fatner was a blacksmith and whose mother was a common person of the London streets. Who could have dreamed, in the days ot Anne Clarges’ obscurity, that she would become the Duchess of Albe- gflrle and, indirectly, the most in- tential person in .!:n%lemd? 8he is described as being a vulgar, homely, boisterous person, ill-iempered and seldom without & curse on her lips. She did not shrink from physical combat and the story goes that she actually chastised her husband with her own fists. Bhe must have been a terror, for her spouse was a brave soldler and a doughty fighting man. He feared her moré than an army. The romancé of George Monk and Anne Clarges is one of the most curi- ous in history. Monk, younger son of & baronet, and therefore with mediocre prospects in life, fought against Oliver Cromwell, being an adherent of Charles I. He was captured by’ the parliamentary forces and imprisoned in the Tower of London, where Cromwell, who admired his military genius, sought in vain to get him to turn against the monarchy. Ultimately he was released and served under Cromwell, but not against his King. He was sent to Ireland to subdue the cebels and to Scotland to restore order. ‘While Monk was in the Tower, pen- niless and forgotten, Anne Clarges acted as his seamstress. Gentleman and wanton conceived a strange fancy for eéach other. With all her wvui- garity, Anne had a good heart. She aided Monk financially and brought him comforts that made prison more endurable. Eventually he married her, though not until he had had several children y_her. Monk’s military genius made a gen- eral of him. On the death of Crom- well he became the first person in England. Outwardly, at least, this was true, But if the chronicles of Anne Clarges’ cotem) are to be believed, she was her husband's directing ginius. 8he was, in short, his “boss,” ruling him with cleler-mgnl“mkm, vléy s | ngue, and, if necessary, fly- | ing fists. g\‘l‘ di dearly.
