NEW HAIR STYLES WANT BEAUTIFUL NECKS
THE new high hair dressing
modes certainly call for beau-
By
tiful necka, and while most
women who value their good MARY
looks pay strict attention to the front of their necks, the back of the neck is apt to be forgotten,
Very often the back of the neck needs bleaching, and the skin needs a special softening. treatment.
Sometimes a woman who has, until recently, had her hair cut short at the hair-line, cannot have her hair brushed up at the back until she has had the "bristly" hair removed with a de- pilatory.
This Edwardian hairdressing style, showing the hair brushed up at the neck, always has the the hair piled high in curls at top of the head.
While this style in lovely for the evening it is not quite so successful in the day time, when it is apt to be crushed by your newest hat.
It is, therefore, an excellent plan to invest in a little bunch of curls to match your own natural tresses, for wear in the evening. If carefully chosen and properly worn it is quite indetectable.
Face The Truth
IT is a very sound scheme to
have some of your mirrors placed in a very flattering light. Then when you are all ready dressed for some special ocen sion, a glimpse of yourself in, say, the hall mirror gives you that lovely, exalted feeling that ensures an enjoyable evening.
But it is equally essential to have used a thoroughly reveal- ing mirror for the actual pro- cess of beautifying your face.
I suggest, for tais purpose, one of those new mirrors which have a special, non-dazzling light placed behind it, so that it reveals, mercilessly, every im- perfection, whether of skin or make-up!

Almost at its feet, ale whirls aloft hissingly, flying with a lumbering gait. as her left wing was partially crippled.
So it is! For, underneath it, pressed tight against her thigh, aho carries a quaking youngstor, thereby turning herself into an aerial taxi!
Then, having at some sale distance dropped her tiny "fare." she flies back to her nest and removes her other two chicks to rejoin the third one.
Formerly, many experts scoffed at the very idea that woodcock, when alarmed by man or beast, carried their
