WOMAN'S PAGE., THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1930. FEATURES. Ungraceful Upperarms. Dear Miss Leeds—Please tell me how %0 reduce my upper arms. I am ,ashamed to wear short sleeves or put on a bathing sult. 2. I am & golden blond with grayish biue eyes and medium colored skin. What colors are becoming? MISS SUSAN P. Answer—Perhaps your upper arms look large beeause the muscles have become_flabby through lack of exer- cise. Stretch both arms over your head and then bend your elbows close to yeur head and try to reach down | your back as far as you can with | your fingers. Reach up again and | Tepeat the exercise twenty to thirty times during the day. Swimming is | & splendid exercise for keeping the | upper arms in good condition. Try to take a swim two or three times & week and practice the crawl and breast strokes for half an hour. Punching- bag exercise is also good for making the upper arms firmer. Watch for my talk on this subject. 2. You may wea golden brown, yellow, medium blues each, blue-green, green-brown, green sh yellow, blue-violet, dahlia, light and dark violet, plum, Burgundy. You may also wear the pastel shades in green, orchid, blue, yellow, gray and pink. When Great Folks Turn Petty Ruskin’s Bitter Criticism of Made Him Laughing-Stock of England BY 1. P. FHE LOOKED AT THE PICTURE AND THEN HE CAREFULLY EXAMINED THE FACE OF HIS QUESTIONER.” It was rather an ill day for John Ruskin when he became petulant in writing criticlsms of the pictures of | James McNeill Whistler, the painter. In 1877 Ruskin was the despot of the art world of England. Did he praise this artist, success was won; did he . ignore that one, he was doomed. It did not occur to him as he reviewed the opening at the Grosvenor Gallery that he was about to be shorn of & large share of his dignity. Whistler had shown his Philip the Second of Spain, of his “Nocturnes” and some other| B!eel!. From his supposed impregna- le heights Ruskin turned a dour eye upon them and proceeded to criticize them with a peevish pen. He wrote: | “For Mr. Whistler's own sake, no less than for the protection of the pur-' ehaser, Sir Coutts Lindsay (the direc- tor) ought not to have admitted works into the gallery in which the ill-edu- cated conceit of the artist so nearly approached the aspect of willful impos- ture, I have seen and heard much of cockney impudence before now, but never expected to hear a coxcomb ask 200 guineas for flinging & pot of paint in the public's face.” * Thi: bitter statement would have de- stroyed a weak man. But Whistler was not weak. Coxcomb he was, but a fighting, virulent one, who never took an insult meekly. He knew that Ruskin was mistaken, that he was blind to something that he did not understand, and that he was stirred by personal distastes. He sued for libel. ‘The_case was tried before the emi- nent Baron Huddlestone and a jury. ‘The whole country was moved to laughter. Ruskin's dignity suffered in the legal | proceedings. 8o did that of his coun- sel. Whistler's wit made him com- pietely at home. He had a good time. The attorney general stupidly asked .when the price of a picture was under discussion: “And 30 you ask 200 guineas for the labor of two days?” MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS. | with your skin lotion and pat the skin | powder, ‘Whistler's reply became famous. “No,” he retorted. know! T ask it for the e of & lifetime.” ‘The attorney general was & bear for punishment. Also black in a sheer fabric over a slip of orange, cream or yellow. LOIS LEEDS. Foundation for Make-up. Dear Miss Leeds—Tell me how to care for my skin properly. Every night I cleanse it with a eleansing cream. | then I wash it with warm water and mild soap. Then I apply a skin lo-| tion. During the day I use cream for | cleansing, finishing with an application | of witch hazel. 1 use no other founda- | tion before applying my make-up. Is this correct? My skin is inclined to| be rather dry. MISS EDNA W. Answer—Yes, T think you need a | foundation cream to hold your face powder smoothly, especially’ as your | skin is inclined to be rather dry. ~Use & light-weight cold cream or a milky | lotion as & powder base. After cleansing | your skin with the cleansing agent, Te- | move the surface dust and make-up [ with a tissue square. Then wash in warm water. The soap that vou refer to is a reliable brand. But be sure that you rinse your face thoroughly in tepid water and finally with cold water. Dry the skin thoroughly with a clean soft towel. Then apply a little tissue cream, skin food or cold cream and massage it for a few seconds, using a light pa tering movement. Remove the surplus | cream and saturate a pad of absorbent | cotton in cold water, then sprinkle it thoroughly until it has dried. Now apply a thin film of finishing cream or | foundation cream and dust with face pressing the powder on the skin evenly. Brush off the excess pow- der with a clean wisp of cotton or a soft baby brush kept for this purpose. I think you will find that this method makes your skin look smoother and your make-up go on better. When you cleanse your face during the day after removing the cleansing eream, pat on a little skin lotion or freshener to remove all the excess eream, then apply your finishing cream and fresh face powder. LOIS LEEDS, (Copyright, 1930.) Whistler Brought Suit That GLASS. “Do you think that you could make me see the beauty of that picture?” he ‘went on. ‘Whistler paused. He looked at the plcture and then he carefully examined the face of his questioner. “No,” he said finally. “I fear it would be as hopeless as for the musi- clan to pour his notes into the ears of a deaf man.” Ruskin was beaten, although the damages awarded Whistler consisted of but a single farthing. The worst of it was that his authority as a critic was irretrievably damaged. ‘Whistler henceforth wore the far- thing on his watchchain. He was the best talked ahout man in England. In- (er:‘;t in his pictures was greatly quick- ened. (Copyright, 1930 Mock Hollandaise, Suitable for any boiled vegetable.
