(Copyright, 1831.) Everyday Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Do You Know Yourself # About the first thing the average lay- man says to a psychologist is this: “Tell me what I am.” ‘This request is not altogether a mat- ter of ignorance. It's a statement of & psychological _situation about which many so-called_psychologists seem to know so little. It's a sensible request. Suppose you would like to know what you are from the psychological point of view. And who doesn’t? In general, the answer is this: You are a bunch of habits—habits which, on the whole, fit well into the established order of socially getting along. These habits operate so mechanically, so automatic- aily, that no one is ordinarily concerned about what you are. You are taken for granted! When one serously insists on finding out what he is, you may be pretty sure that that person has recently become painfully aware of the operation of some social habits. 1t is possible to take too much notice of physical ills, Just 50, you may easily become too introspective " about, - your (Copyright, 1931.)

DEALLY, make-up should merely bring out milady’s good points— deepen the natural line of lips and cheeks, accent her eyebrows and lashes and take the shine off her nose—but there are cases in which it may be used to create an illusion of beauty Where Nature has been niggardly. The two commonest instances of this use of cosmetics are illustrated by the overly fat. round face and the extremely long, thin one. Actually reducing a plump, round face is often impracticable, since girls of this type often have slender figures and cannot afford to lgse any weight. The girl whose face is naturally thin and long is in a similar predicament in many cases. She does not want to add any extra pounds to her already well developed bédy and nothing she can do_brings fullness to her face. This is where the artful and artistic use of rouges may come in. The girl with a full face should be careful not to place her rouge in the center of her cheeks because that makes the face seem rounder. Instead, she should place the color rather high on her cheekbone, bringing it toward her nose, then downward and backward toward her jawbone. This makes a rough V- shape around the center of the cheeks. Blend the edges carefully. For a dark brunette, the V-shape of rouge may be of a raspberry shade. Of course, powder base is appiled first. After the rouge a dark brunette or olive powder should be pressed on with a full powder puff, then lightly blended with a complexion brush so that no powder will be left in the crevices about nose and eyes. Dark red lipstick is next in order, but if the face is short and the mouth wide, use the color very spar- ingly. A little salve may be applied to the lips before the lipstick is used if the skin seems at all dry. Now fcr the thin and long face. Here the rouge may be placed across the cheek in the center to lessen the ap- parent length of the face. When cheekbones are high with a hollow be- low them, do not rouge the hollow, however, as that will make it seem deeper. ' Apply the color in a semi-cir- cle back of ard under the hollow, blending it carefully so that no hard lines show. For a brunette with me- dium complexion, a geranium rouge may be used with a rachelle or brunette powder. Lips may be accented and | made to appear fuiler with the aid of & medium red lipstick. ‘The same principles of applying rouge, of course, apply to the blonce, | but lighter shades cf rouge, powder and | lipstick are required Blondes should i | - in semi-circle wr | effect the delicate tints that nature in- tended for them.
