They suggested to him Mussulman women who, when on holiday, use henus to colour their nails and palms.

Patou asked why women should want to dye their hair, adding: "Don't they know that the colour" of their hair is designed to be part of the ensemble nature has pro- vided for every individual'? It is, therefore, the only colour suitable for their complexion, their eyes and their whole personality.

THE COLOUR FOR YOU.

"It isn't possible! What rubbish!"* I imagine I hear some sceptical reader exclaim on reading the above title. I own on first sight it does appear ludicrous, but just revolve the subject in your own mind for FOR THE GIRL WITH AUBURN a few moments, and the ideh is not so absurd, although one may not hope literally to add inches to one's height after the age of growth Lis past.

Just as there is no denying the fact that on certain days a homely featured girl looks actually pretty and a pretty girl positively plain, so the girl who bemoans her lack of inches sometimes feels as if she had sprouted a bit, and the next day she knows not why she seems to have shrunk to her original dimensions. The explanation is quite simple, and the whole secret lies in the art of dressing.

HAIR.

The woman with auburn hair has always been romantic figure. Poets have sung of her; painters have used her and immortalised her on their canvases; and no doubt she has been an inspiration for many a song.
