For the Book-Lover -:- * By Marie Marot |
IF you are that harassed book lover whose
cases are always filled to overflowing with
books, you will welcome any suggestion de
signed to solve your problem. And apartment
house life being what it is, space is the important
consideration these days.
That the decorator whose sketch we are
showing recognized this fact is evident by the
skillful placing of her bookshelves. Above the
couch they take up only the space ordinarily re
served for pictures. They are accessible and deco
rative, which makes them thoroughly practical,
t -- Tk* shelves are painted a deep shade of ^
mauve to emphasize the soft green of the uphol
stered satin sofa. Old French prints on the wall
are framed in green, while the lamp of wrought
iron carries a parchment shade in deep gold.
There is a deep blue vase which you may
notice tucked in between the books, and on the
table rests an amber flower bowl supporting
lovely yellow roses.
This color scheme i3 admirably adapted to
a cozy reading corner, for it is bright without
being obstrusive and cheerful without being too
diverting. The housewife who knows the value
of space conservation will do well to model her
llA book corner after the sketch here. --*

“SITTING” FOR YOUR
. PICTURE-ITS AN ART! —
By JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON 3
' But. my dear, the picture doesn't do you Justice!"
Doesn’t this sound familiar? of course, it does, and It is wt» i#
true, lor most of us don't know how to prepare the face for a amine »f
the photographers.
There are many trays in which you can aid the
master of lens and light to obtain a realistic, yet
flattering portrait of you.
• For example, far too many women get dresse#
up” to go to the photographers. That in Itself a
one of the worst mistakes one can make particularly
if the clothing worn is so new that you haven't baa
a chance to get acquainted with it
Poise or self-assurance comes with bring at ease
in one's surroundings. How can one be completely
comfortable in a brand-new outfit until tt ha* be* r
worn once or twice? Even though it fits perfectly
and is known to enhance one s charm there still re
mains the necessity of famffiarMnc onegeW with the
way the skirt falls when one do»u the hang of
" a scarf around the shoulders, whether the bodtet *
' " w^vqfdhinF bulges a bit at the neckline when one bends over « •
HurtTM rcTTN whether one must be on the alert to keep the M I
rtvjwLto jvn from catching in the long, uneven hem when artstnt 1
Until we know what the frock will do when we walk, sit or stand wa M
can t know it.
Therefore, wear an attractive costume and one that is to perfect *
condition, but do not wear one that has not been tested and tried. Thla J
more than anything else will give1
you the ease of manner that will
help the photographer to pose you
at your best.
The color of the costume Is im
portant too. Light colors always
make one appear larger than darker
shades so be cautious about wear
ing white, or pale blue or yellow
which show up white in the photo
graphs.
Red. navy, brown, purple and dark
green all appear black so unless you
desire a decided contrast which bor
ders on the theatrical these colors
should be avoided. Figured mate
rials are treacherous photographi- j
cally, no matter how lovely they
are at other times.
Pink, light green, beige, sand and
gray all photograph in various tones |
of soft gray and are the most de-,
sirable ones to wear when sitting
for a photograph.
Hats should not be worn because
the styles change so rapidly that
they turn this year's porHait into
next year’s cartoon.
The hair should be dressed in the
customary mode. It's a big mis
take to undertake a different coif
, fure for one's photograph.
Modern lighting effects, whether
they are gained by natural or arti
ficial make-up but that which is
used must be deftly applied.
All rouge must be removed for
red ' takes'' black and so makes hol
lows and smudges on the face.
Faint shadows placed on the eye
lids and blended carefully out to
the ends of the eyes make them ap
pear large and more luminous. After
shading the eyes, dust Just enough
powder over the face, throat and
shoulders to remove any shine A
bit of mascaro on the lashes, heav
ier on the upper than on the lower,
makes them appear longer and of
more luxurious growth, thus accen
tuating their beauty.
A very light application of lip
rouge. Just enough to clearly out
line the lips, finished the photogra
phic make-up. Too much Up rouge
. makes the lips appear black, so
please take the ‘ light application’’:
suggested above seriously.
And lastly, forget that you are
having your picture taken. BE
j YOURSELF!
