Why Each Type of Woman Resembles Some Kind of Animal
fatjo ev - Wr . H-r
Mile. Anne Dancrey, the French Actress, Who Finds in Every
Woman a Marked Resemblance to Some Animal.
By Mile. Anne Dancrey.
EVERT "woman resembles a cer
tain animal and should dress
according to that particular
type of animal "which she resembles.
Be not offended, dear madame, or
rharmlng mademoiselle, tvho reads
:hls. Most animals are beautiful, and
vrtth beauty -which is quite their own.
That, permit meJo, Inform you, is-a
most important point a beauty quite
their own.
They do not try to dress as other
animals do. Fancy the rabbit trying
to drape himself in a tiger skin. Yet
ivomen do quite as absurd things. I
'have seen tiger -women trying fo
make rabbits of themselves and pea
cock -women trying to masquerade as
doves. It is the height of absurdity
and the depth of vulgarity. Your
"women -who are over thirty dress
charmingly, but -up to that turfe their
taste is in most cases atrocious. The.
young girls try to make themselves
look like -women of thirty or more,
but -what is -worse, they try to change
their type. The dainty little canary
like girl tries to look as though a
cat had swallowed her. "Wicked -waste
of ibeauty! Confession of utter lack
of sense or fitness!
Every time I look at a woman I
think of an animal. Bat there is in
women an infinite variety of animal
types. Men are more alike and fol
j low but one species. Every man I
' have ever seen resembles some- breed
of a dog. He may' be a greyhound,
tall and slight and sharp-featured
and nervous. Or he may be the op
posite type the bull terrier. Recall
the men you have seen and they
range in resemblance between ttiese
types. But women vary as greatly as
does the entire animal kingdom.
y
There is the Hon, woman, long,
lithe, calm, slumbrous. Such women
have calm, dark eyes, giving the im
pression of intense quiet and immense
reserve strength. They are never
chatty, but are fascinating because
Inscrutable.
Very unlike her, her antipodes in
appearance and character, is the
tiger woman. She is always of bril
liant, showy type. Her eyes are bril
liant. Her coloring is striking. The
French or Italian blonde, the dark
eyed, fair-haired, fair-complexloned
woman, at whom every one looks as
she passes, is a tiger woman. .
Unlike both though vaguely sug
gesting them, as. miniature may
suggest a life-size painting, is the
cat woman. She is of th& plump,
liearthside sort She- has a gentle
manner and has naturally luxurious
tastes. ;She seeks the soft places of
life as a vcat seeks" a cushion. She '
finds light and sunshine as a cat
finds the warm place by the fire.
"While often lacking energy, she has
a great deal of womanly charm.
You have all seen the peacock
woman. She is always tall and
usually slender, though she may be
of the ample figure. Generally 3he
is slender enough to be elegant. If
not she tries to starve herself into
thinness, for the peacock -voman is
Inevitably vain. She is vainer than
the cat woman, for the cat woman is
so fond of the good things of the
table that" sooner or later she per
mltj herself to grow fat- The pea
cock woman's keynote is magnificence
The fifth variety is the dove
woman. "Watch any group of pigeons
and you will recall some woman you
know, round, trim, brisk of move
ment, capable. She is as plump as
the cat woman, but more energetic
and of trimmer appearance.
Guns T
THE advantage often gained In war
by night attacks upon the enemy's
iatreachmenis now seems to be
offset by a German invention of guns
which project searchlights instead of bul
lets. These Illuminating grenades, fired
into the air above where the assaulting
party is supposed to be approaching under
cover of the darkness, remain for some
moments suspended by opening parachute
attachments. During that period each
throws a cone of bright light upon the
earth below.
The approaching, enemy Ib thus plainly
revealed while the force to be attacked re
mains Invisible and can stop the contem
plated attack with deadly marksmanship.
These illuminating grenades weigh only
14 ounces and can be attached to the
muzzle of the ordinary service rifle. In
projecting it into the air the butt of the
rifle Is placed on the ground. There is a
firing rod, weighing fen additional 4
ounces, which releases the parachute and
Ignites the illuminating substance cal
cium carbide.
Of course, only a small number of Tifles
have to be detailed for this service, and
even these are immediately ready for
offensive use as soon as the grenades have
revealed the enemy. It will be seen that
the use of this device not only renders the
night attack futile when there is suffU
cient warning but actually transfers the
isual advantage to the force which is the
Jbject of the attack.
The principle of an illuminating pro-
hat Shoot Searchlights Tn
stea
jectile was first applied to cannon'fon Ger
man warships, with the parachute feature
omitted the object being a floating light.
On striking the water, being lighter than
that element it soon came to the surface
but not until wateY had been automatically
admitted, producing acetylene gas burning
with an Illumination equal to that of three
thousand candles.
Army experts consider the rifle, search
light grenade the most useful adaptatlonof
the principle. ' Its general adoption would
bring about a general revision of tactics for
operations at night Such military opera
tions have long been in favor to serve
various purposes, for example: To steal
a march on an enemy and out-manoeuver
him; to avoid the unwelcome observation
of, his aerial scouts, planing at lofty alti
tudes, securely immune from the fire of
terrestrial marksmen; to traverse ground
which offers no cover from the view and
fire of the enemy In daylight; to carry on
an attack commenced before dark and
convert it into a successful fight to a finish
during the intervening period before the
following dawn reveals one's dispositions,
and, more important than all, to take the
enemy by surprise, and thus enhance the
chances of success tenfold.
An assault may be actually delivered
during darkness, but the hazards of such
a proceeding are so great that unless the
conditions of a fire fight with the enemy
have already proved adverse over the same
ground in daylight or are almost certain
to be so, it is usually better to accept the

proportion ' of losses by the enemy's fire
which may be expected In a struggle for
supremacy under normal conditions by day,
trusting to gun and rifle for decision, than
to endeavor to gain the point by the bay
onet, the greoade, and hand-to-hand fight
ing, the only methods which can be re
lied upon In a nocturnal melee. In cases
where the night, assault is considered im
perative everything is done to avoid alarm
ing the enemy until the attack can close
with him. Rifles are not loaded, though
magazines are charged and cut-offs closed,
the troopsVare given strict orders not to
fire -without a distinct order, bayonets
alone to be used until daylight makes
it possible to aim with effect; absolute
silence to be maintained until the mo
ment of assault, the advance to be car
ried out quietly and without rattling of
accouterments. No smoking la permitted,
no matches to be struck;
Nearly all of these advantages of night
movements and attacks seem to bo de

Rifles
Attractive by reason of her tlni
ness and daintiness is the canary
woman. Very small,- of exquisite
neatness and canary-like swiftness,
she is the most petable of women,
except the cat kind. Her walk Is like
a hop. Her eyes are small and bright
and roving. She nearly always has
straight hair that she wears smooth
ly upon her sleek, little head. She
has wee feet and hands. She Is alert
and tireless, though of small frame
and fragile.
Each of these women has a key
note of character and appearance.
The lion woman's Is quiet strength.
The tiger woman's a brilliancy and
wealth of color. The cat woman's is
slow grace of movement and softness
of outline. The peacock woman is
nothing if not magnificent The dove
woman is characterized by a quiet
manner and soft tones In dress. The
canary girl's dominant notes are
daintiness and quickness.
For each one of these there Is a
distinctive style of dress. Classify
yourself correctly and you will have
no trouble to dress becomingly, for
you have only to study your animal
prototype and learn from it It will
give you all the hints about dress
you need.
I, Anne Dancrey, receive more
hints on dress from, the zoo than
from Bhops. A lion's cage suggests
more to me about my season's ward
robe than does any shop window In
the Rue de la Paix. I am a lion wo
man. Instinctively I have always
liked lions. "When a child I was taken
to the zoo. I did not laugh at the
antics of monkeys or try to play
with the little white rabbits. The
lions' brown bodies moving slowly,
but with what power, about their
cages, or asleep in a streak of sun
shine on the floor always fascinat
ed me. A lion is never fat I
hate fat His body is just as heavy
as it needs to be for its use no
heavier. That is a hint to all women,
especially women of the lion type. No
woman who is fat Is beautiful. To
many persons (and I am one of them)
she is actually repulsive. Fat is a
disease, and the fat person is unat
tractive because she is not healthy.
All women should be as tall as they
can. Height Is beauty. Wheir Scho
penauer vixpressed his contempt for
"the short-legged sex" he showed also
a knowledge of the fundamentals of
beauty, one of which is height.
Knowing myself to be a lion
woman, I always wear one-tone
gowns. The combinations that are
now the mode are not for me, espe
cially not during the day. For me
mere exists but three colors by day
tolack, white and blue. No matter
what the season I appear only in one
of these on the street or at home
by day. By night I permit myself
slight shadings of the same col6r. My
model, the lion, seems to be of one
color. Scrutinized closely it may be
;een that his dark body shades to
Ighter tones. Therefore, I permit
myself for evening wear "changeable"
gowns, the colors sometimes called
"clouded," or "shaded," as moire, silk
or cloth.
The lion is usually of a tawney (yel
lowish brown) color, the same from
mane to claws, save when the light
shines straight upon him, when we
see the rich yet delicate shadings of
his coat. Striped or plaids or any
thing of garish effect would take the
Hon woman out of her type. She
should wear few jewels, and if she
wears plumes or flowers on her hat
they should be of soft dull tones.
The lion woman's dress note is ele
gance. . The tiger woman, of whom Mary
Garden is an example, should dress
as the tiger does showily, in bril
liant colors, securing bizarre effects.
-Stripes, plaids, checks and combina
tions of contrasting colors (as black
and white, brown and gold, red and
Wue, gray and yellow) she can wear
with striking and becoming effect
The three-tone French gown, (as the
mauve, blue and green dress, the
violet, gold and white, or black, cop
per and green) are as though design
ed for her. The tiger woman can wear
big, flaring hats, slippers with dia
mond or rhlnestone buckles, accord
ing to her purse, and shawls aod
wraps with huge patterns. She fa of
the Oriental type, and Oriental effects
in gowns, wraps and hats are most
becoming to her.
The cat woman looks best in soft
materials, as crepe de chines and vel
vets, and she is never wrong when
she selects the cat colors (greea, gray,
yellow and black) and their combina
tions. SThe green should appear in
jewels (as matrices, cafs eyes agates) ,
and, If she Is so fortunate as to af
ford them, emeralds. Her gowns
should be gray or of any other
of the cat colors. Feathers and furry
wraps seem especially her own, as is
cloth with a long nap as velvet or
zlbeHlne. Being a cat women she
should accentuate her type, and thus
furs, velvets and all materials with
a soft finish will do.
The peacock -woman's vardroba
should be quite the opposite of that
of the 1km woman. Opening the
closet doors in the lion woman's
apartment yon see dull, soft-hued
gowns of dark colors. The peacock
woman's closets reveal a very riot
and splendor of color. She wears
bright colors and masses of them.
She should choose hard, brilliant
colors, as purples and bright blues,
and hard, brilliant fabrics, as shin
ing silks and high lustre satins.
Laees, if she wears them, must be of
large, bold design, and If heavily em
bossed or appliqued, the better. She
may wear a scarlet velvet wrap to
the opera or a cherry-colored cash
mere to a dance hall on the East
Side, according to her circumstances.
But she need have no fear of garish,
colors. They were made for her.
The dove woman, of whom you
have more, I understand, in Philadel
phia than any other city in this coun
try, instinctively wears one-tone gar
ments. A gray gown of one shade,
we will say, a gray bat with a wing
or plume two shades darker or richer
gray, and boots and stockings of the
darker shade, form an ideal garb for
this type. The gown of one tone
causes her to look taller and slen
derer, which Is her ambition. Be
cause she is plurap, her clothes
should lie in close lines along her
figure. Her hats should be neither
large nor small, but of a size to be
symmetrical with her figure.
The canary woman may with im
punity -wear any color she fancies.
She can wear bright yellows and
blues, reds and pink, because she is
tiny. No color is denied her except
black, which dwarfs her and causes
her to look insignificant. She
may wear tiny, coquettish tur
bans, short skirts that disclose
her dainty feet, and zouave or
Eton jackets. She may load her
self with jewe's or none-at all.
according to her tastes and
purse. She has more latitude in dress
than any of the other types. But shi
should avoid sombre colors and,
heavy wrappings, which eclipse her.
For all these types one rule of
dressing holds. Follow the lines of
your figure cjid make your figure
look as tall and slender as you can.
