TTDAHP SYEZCiiATIfiRKNi WftlTTEN FOK TIIS SUNDAY REPUBLIC. There is a pretty style or girt called the typical American girl. J Is a new "type." and she 1 ao dls ln her ways aa aha la In her looks. Is wonderfully graceful. A goes without dwelling upon It, and s tall and slim. But the trait do not" f stamp her as a type. y There are other characteristics which are noticed about her. And these are that she shall have a wide, smooth forehead, not too high, but perfectly free from lines. She must hare cheeks that are weU'.flned out. even plump, and"shapedso' that they make an outline that, while plump and full, shall nevertheless be an oval Then, besides these, which would seem to he enough for any girl, she must have a rounded chin, with a tip that is Just the sweetest thing in the world. Her neck is full, too, for she Is pretty In decollete, the American girl, but It is her forehead, her chin and her cheeks that come first among her delightful characteristics. The American girl, when you find her' in her perfect stats. Is the prettiest girl In the universe. She looks not fragile, but healthy, and the air of health is not oa the surface alone, hut it Is found In the subsurface, so to speak, ar.4 it will bubble up in her abundant life and inlrltsi It is claimed that every free-born Ameri can girt can make' of herself an American typo. Its characteristics are so simple, so easily acquired, so manageable and pliable, as It were, that any American girl with a fair start, can turn herself into a type without a great deal of trouble. WHAT SHE MUST HAVE. To do this she must make her forehead smooth; she' must make her cheeks .full arid plump; she must make her chin round. After this come the sparkllngeyes, 'the curved brows, the Cupid-bow mouth end the other pretty points of a woman's face. But the first and' main thing is the fore head, for if this be lined or creased, or if It be furrowed in those queer hillocks which sometimes' mar a womanls face; or if -It be potted or freckled, or If; It be filled with open pores or touched wlth"blackhead!r then. Indeed, la a woman's beauty spoiled, Tet the treating' of the forehead" is . the most difficult of all things. Tha"skln. .Js thick upon the forehead, and It Is .tough. 'It Is. also. In the majority'-ofcases. much' abused. A woman will take cars of her, ehhi and her cheeks, and will treat them "scrupu lously, whUs her poor forehead, half hidden under Its hot. padded pompadour, will steam !nd grow yellow and dull, while the. rest ,ef her face Is young. , The habit of lifting the brows when one J is talking U bad; bo also Is the habit of Trownlng. t The latter Is on that many people per form unconsciously. Often a woman will 'have a perpetual scowl without know leg It. A beauty doctor, taking a patient In hand, will require her to sit In front of the mlr-' ror and convene. When the woman sees the frowns" she makes, the grimaces "aba draws, the' wry 'looks she displays, she" will start bock In" affright "Why, r am spoiling my face." she will exclaim. There ara girls, and pretty girts, too, whoa foreheads are pitted with pores and lackhaads. This condition la unspeakably shocking, 0cA It can transform a pretty face Into oo that ts positively revolting. Thar Is no better Index to one's personal fcablta than the state of one's 'forehead, sod when this Is found' to be all specked irKh Mlitim and made horrid with ' sssssssssssssr Wide, Smooth Forehead, Plump Cheeks and Rounded Chin Mark This Attractive Type of-Beauty. tczzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ; .marks of various kinds. It Is almost im possible to believe that the girl or woman Is fastidious In her habits. THE FOREHEAD. The steaming of the forehead is the first step in the cure, and for this there must be a basin of hot water, resting in another basin, with the outer one kept boiling. Tho steaming of the faco does not mean Its parboiling, by any means. But it does mean the thorough heating of the skin until the cuticle Is In Buch a state cs to permit the rubbing out of tho blackheads. If the skin be heated very hot and kept hot for five minutes, and if, at the end of .that time, a thorough lather of soap and water be applied. It will be found that, when tho lather Is washed off. the black heads will come off too. And the forehead will be nearly clean. But It Is massage that does the most and the best for the forehead. Do not at tempt It yourself, but get an operator. Let, her dip her fingers In warm almond oil, and let her pass them gently over your forehead, going from side to side, right along, the lines of the furrows. " Lot 'the masseuse, be. she amateur or pro fessional, pretend that she Is smoothing out a piece of wrinkled tissue paper. Let her put her fingers In the creases and rub them away. A hard stroke Is not necessary, but there should be long, gentle strokes of the kind that will. In time, take out every wrinkle. The masseuse must.

His work, if there be any, must bo dons on recent lines. MAKING HER CHEEKS RED. If this Is done, then comes the masseuse again, and this time her duty Is not to rub tho checks,- but to spat them. "Spatting" the cheeks Is done with the two middle fingers.. xney are cuppea in not water, and tha cheeks, era gently patted with tho fingers., The tips strlko the cheeks Just In tha mid dle, right at the dimple spot, and the skin It stimulated and reddened.

Cheeks that are religiously spatted every day In the week are always red; they are always cool and soft to tha touch; they very rarely "havo freckles upon them, and they are never pimpled or covered with1 blackheads.

SHE IS TRUE TO TTPB. The typical American girl keeps herself true to her typo by roiiowmg tnese oirec tlons and she who is faulty in type can cor rect her defects. It would be telling tales out of school to reveal the names of these prominent women who have tried these methods of facial tteatment. Some of the prettiest actresses on. the stage, some of the most, notable society beauties, some of the .most prominent wom en In every walk of life, have taken this treatment with such good results that ono hears them spoken of as growing dally more beautiful; and always does one hear of them as "types" of American beauties. Many a Gibson girl has her forehead dally made wide and smooth with a massage of warm oil; many a Christy girl has her chin made a little more (oval by a compress of warm water at each side of her face; many a Stanalans girl is made more dainty by the gentle spatting of her cheeks right in the dimple spot. Tho brightening of a gliTs eye depends upon sleep, her state of mind and her gen eral health. No bright eye ever went with a sick body, and no eye was ever brilliant that flashed forth from a mind morose .and melancholy. But the American girl is nono of these. She Is bright and pretty and without wrin kles. She keeps herself nice by following the laws of facial hygiene, and she makes her self dolly' prettier and prettier by the use of the simple arts which are taught her by those who, make a business of making a pretty girl 'prettier! And that is the typical American girl. Study her type and you will recognize her as such. Follow her laws and her rules, and you, too. like her, shall be one of the type. . ANSWERS TO CpRRESPONDENTB.
