"CERTAINLY, It's All Right to 'MAKE UP'
Your Face— Make It LOOK as if
NATURE Did the Work!" J
More than half the letters I re
ceive from my male correspond
ents say, "Please, Miss Burke, tell
the girls not to use any make-up."
They seem to think that if a girl
is healthy she will be beautiful.
You can be healthy without
being ix'iiiiiit'ui. hut you cannot
bo hcnutifiil witliout !>• in:,
healthy. Consequently a judi
cious amount of artistic beauti
fying is not only permissible, but
necessary, if a woman would ap
pear her best.
No man should rail against
women using powder, as in^ every
liarber loop now-a-days powder
is rubbed into the faces of the
patrons after a shave.
I see no reason why a woman
should allow her eyebrows to
meet over her eyes or to show
long, ugly, scragly hairs at the
corners, when she can pull them
out or even shave them off.
Of course, some men might ob
ject to this if they knew their
wives did it, but "wifey" might
retort hy asking, "Why do you
shuve tho back of your neck?
Aren't you, as well as I, trying
to improve upon nature?"
Tomorrow, after you have
taken your bath, splash cold
water all over your face and
then take a piece of ice in a
cheese cloth rag and rub it all
over your face and neck until
you have brought the blood to
the surface. You will find this
brighten your eyes as well as
freshen your complexion.
Now plaster your face and
neck with a pure cold cream.
Don't be stingy with It; rub It in
with soft upward and circular
strokes and wipe,off all the su
perfluous cream.
If you find that your ice and
cream have not given you enough
color, you can put just a very
little rouge on each cheek. Most
women who use rouge use the
kind that comes in colored grease
sticks. Put a little dab upon
each cheek bone near the eyes
and a tiny bit on your chin. Now
take a clean bit of cloth and
softly spread this upward toward
the eyes and off toward the ears.
Some girls use a little rouge
on their ears, as a tinted cheek
and white ear Is apt to make one
look tubercular or anaemic.
Carefully examine your face in a
hand glass to see that it is not
in any way "patchy," then dust
your face and neck all over with
powder—and again, don't be
stingy!
After this take your eyebrow
brush, and carefully brush out
your eyebrows and wipe off your
lashes with a tiny cloth between
your thumb and forefinger.
If your eyebrows are light In
color, or thin, apply a little
mascara, which is a water color
aud perfectly harmless. You can
buy it at any drug store.
If your lips are pale apply a
little of the tinted cold cream.
This will be good for them, as
well as making them look better.
Leave all your powder on until
after you have combed your hair,
then take a powder puff, or bet
ter, the soft little brush which is
used on a baby's hair, and brush
off all the superfluous powder,
using upward strokes until the
very last, then going over the
whole face quickly with down
ward strokes.
I'll wager after all this Is
done, if you do it carefully, the
grimmest-eyed old bacholor will
not be able to detect the slightest
art in your make-up, and he will
probably go around telling every
body what a pretty girl you are
— natural and unartificlal!
Go ahead, girls, and do
everything you can to en
hance your benuty, but re
member that tho cleverest
and almost jihvay the pret
tiest girl is the one who
makes art look I.ke nature
at her best.

Cynthia Grey's Answers
The Future Generation
Should Be Contildered.
Dear Miss Grey: The
young man that I am going
with tells me that he has
negro blood in his veins and
is proud of it, and if I do
not wish to keep his com
pany, all right.
Miss Grey, I love him:
what shall I do? He is just
as white as I and very
handsome and I love him
very much.
HKAKT-SICK PAULINE.
A.—l admire the young man
for his truthfulness, and this
blood does not necessarily deter
him from being all that is manly
and worthy; but I cannot decide
this matter for you—you must
be your own judge.
There is no harm In your
keeping the man's friendship,
but if you intend to marry It Is
a different matter. As far as
you two are concerned, it would
be all right, but you must re
member if you should ever have
any children, this blood would
be very apt to show in them.
Pauline, there is a tiny bell
which sounds a warning in our
ears—that of our own conscience.
Follow It s.nd you will be safe.
What Is Your Opinion?
Dear Miss Grey: I would
like to have your opinion of
a joiiiih man who takes in
every dance that conies
along, takes a girl there,
dances at least seven dances
in succession with her, while
at home he leaves four lit
tle children and a wife soon
to become a mother of an
other. His eveuings are
never spent at home, but
with other girls drinking,
etc. Miss Grey, will you
kindly print this at your
earliest convenience?
A SYMPATHIZER,
A. —He is a very Inconsider
ate, selfish, thoughtless, insuf
ficient father and husband and
someone should report him to
the juvenile judge.

A.—lt would be a very un
wise thing to do. A man should
l>e at least 21 or 22 years of age
and have a steady position when
marrying. I cannot advise you
to do it by any means, as a man
very seldom retains his school
boy whims and fancies.
Should I please My Parents
or Myself?
Dear Miss Grey: As you
have given others so much
good advice, I would like to
ask you for some.
I am a young man of 22

AMERICAN FASHIONS
FOR AMERICAN WOMEN
American designers and dress
makers are giving to the Ameri
can woman so many beautiful and
original fashion designs that the
best dressers are "passing up"
more and more the eccentric ideas
which the French are continually
sending over here, as the kind of
gowns which must be worn tor the
fashionable woman.
This spring the French de
signers all show the influence of
Turkish and Bulgarian ideas,
while the American designer Is
using the exquisite line and chaste
decoration of the Greeks.

the Ability of the American

.on that account. She is a
perfect ladjr In every respect.

advise me to talk wltlr'them
about it and try to g«*t their
good will for the girl, or
would it bo better to not

her? Thanking you very
much for your answer, I
am WONDKIUXG.
A.-— are both old enough
to know your own minds, and
should you marry you should do
bo to please yourselves; there
fore I do not think parents or
anyone else should Interfere. I
do not consider the few years
difference in your ages an im
pediment to happiness.
You might speak kindly to
your parents and tell them you
feel they should not try to influ

then say nothing more about it.

WOMEN OF SAN FRANCISCO TELL
REAL REASON FOR SEEKING RECALL
The principals in the "Weller ltecall Klection." From Ml <o
r | K lit Miss Frances McTigue, discussing (he business of circulating
initiative petitions with Miss Isabel Munson, .Secy, of Ihe Women's
ltecall league; Judge dins. Ij. Weller, uppor rglit, for whose recall
petitions are being circulated, and below him, Mrs. Alice Host,
president of the league, and leader of the recall movement.
SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 10.—
Tha Women's Recall league who
are responsible for the petition
for the recall of Police Judge
Chas. L. Weller, are circulating
a leaflet giving the reasons for
their action. This remarkable
summary of not only the situa
tion in San Francisco but In police
courts in general, is an arraign
ment of all judges in being un
aware nUtln- new forces in civili
zation that are to nialce for letter
conditions for women and girls.
Excerpts from this woman's doc
uments follows:
A WORLD DEMAND,
"This recall movement Is not
a personal fight, either In Its In
spiration, its application or Its
ideals. It is not a personal opin
with him. Walt until you are of
age, anyway, nnd you may then
vi<;w the situation differently. If
the young man cares for you he
will wait.
"Well Educated" and Likes
to "Spoon."
Dear Miss Grey: I am til
and I live In the I Ullil'l. I
have been keeping company
willi a young man who is
well educated and he is very
rliarmiiiK
i This young man likes to
i spoon, lie says he sees no
harm in spooning, and nei
ther do I. What do you
think of it, Miss <;rey? He I*
very particular about Ilis
. company aiul everybody likes
him. Ho you think he will
love me if I s|tooii with him?
I shall wutch for your an
swer. liONKIiV.
A. —I think it very disgusting.
Nothing, boys and girls, will
cheapen you so much in the eyes
of each other and the 'world as
"spooning." Secretly, the young
man will not care half so much
for you.
I did not suppose our "well
educated" young men Indulged in
such a ludicrous pastime. Your
friend is Betting a very poor ex
ample. There are so many inter
esting and enlightening topics
really worth while and needing
the attention of our young men
and women so much, and if the
"well educated" do not set the
pace who is going to?
