I have made up inost of them-the charming mouths of charming stare. And I say frankly, sincerely, you can make up your lips to fook like your screen favourita's.

Forhaps it sounds incredible, to think of having lips like Marlene Diotrich or Joan Crawford.

It isn't, though. That in the remarkable part about months. Nature

has left them pretty mach to us to model. "As your character shapes itself, so does shaping these days is done with a 8pstick!

You can make up your lips

Since the start of hostilities they have been isolated, except for an occasional runner, from all con- tact with home. They have lived on mountain tops while the Italians marched through the valleys to set up their puppet King Haile Selaa- sle Gugsa in Tigre, And they struck only when the Italian lines of communication had grown long, widely-separated and thin..
