She served as mode! for one of the marble figures done by Henry Her- ring as a part of the sculptural dec- oration of the outside of the Chicago Museum: her graceful proportions adorn a Washington fountain, by Herbert Adams. She has had dramatic experience; she has acted and written for motion pictures. During the past year she has been lecturing for the New York Board of Education on the practical application of physical culture to daily life, In appearance’ she typifies the true “American Leauty"; neither blonde nor brunette, but midway between the two, She has thick, soft, light brown hair and big blue eyes. Her skin has the flush and fairness of apple blos- soms, and her profile is of classic cor- rectness, the nose, especially, in its chiselled straig suggesting the ideal Venus of the sculptor. She is 5 feet 4 inches in height and weighs 130 pounds, perfectly distributed. Her measurements are printed with thts article, The most interesting thing about Miss Doscher’s beauty, however, is that it is self-made, and out of de- cidedly unpromising materials, ‘One reason I know that almost every girl and woman can make her- self healthy and lovely by natural methods," The Evening World's health and beauty expert told me, 8 because I myself overcame many difficulties.

CPE eat, 1991, by The Press Publishing Co (The New York Brening World), IGHT tons of face powder arrived at Newport this week. The season will cpen soon. Everything's in readiness for a large summer, Grocers have changed the price lists. Traffic cops have taker out more insurance. General store has laid in a new stock of poker chips. Nobody will be left undone to make this a successful season. Newport is the playground of the multi-rich, Croquet and pony, polo for grown-ups. Roulette and faro for the little tots. Something doing all the time at Newport. Monkey dinners, motor accidents, burglaries. Every- thing to relieve the monotony and soothe the restive bankroll. Newport is just outside the wood alcohol belt. Exclusive to the sev- enth decimal place. So exclusive the bootleggers talk in three lan- guages. English, French and debu- tante. The debutante language 1s the dumb language. You use two fingers to tell how much Scotch you want. No hooch served beyond the Ubree-finger limit. Newport is beautifully eltuated Six miles from the New Haven rail- road, Two hours’ ride to the near- est police station. One flight up to the faro tables. Nothing to bother tho colonists but the mosquitoes, and the Millionaires’ Committee has even passed resolutions against them. Duke Ignatz of Czecho-Sapolio will be the main layout at Newport this season. The Duke will arrive about July 15, accompanied by his royal hangover. He has promised to spend his first jag in America with the Titherington-Blodges. Mr. and Mrs. Titherington-Blodge have become reconciled for the event. A smashing series of parties planned for keeping the Duke awake. Titherington Villa has been redeco- rated in creme de menthe green, his Dukeship’s favorite. color, and Lu- ther Burbank is working on the shrubbery. Luther will try to cross a Christmas tree with a slippery elm so ft will give birth to throat lozenges. The Duke's quarters have also been piped for bromo seltzer. He will bring his own dice. The season will reach its dizzy height with a garden junket on August fourth. The details are a secret, but It is known there will be swimming and diving in an artificial lake of sparkling Burgundy. That much has leaked out. Diving In Bur- gundy is said to be Ignatz's favorite fun. He has a talent for submerging for hours at a stretch. Sometimes the Duke submerges so long that people think he is dead.
