MAN CHAMPIONS WOMEN WHO
, "MAKE UP," M'LISS FINDS
Man 'Who Objects to Marrying Woman Who Uses
'Cosmetics Will Have Hard Time Find-;
ing a Wife
TUOE' women Who still fed Hint they
need support nnd championing for the
ftrtUtlo attempts they Ynnko to have their
complexion color offects approximate as
nearly ns possible those of iiaturo will he
plfcnsetl and surprised to read that no
less a recruit than Richard Lo Galllcnno
has enlisted under their standard.
To rouge or not to rouge, that Is tho
question that occupies the genttcman'n
tntnd. It Is not that he Is concerned with
tlm paleness of his own epidermis; It Is
of woman's face that he treats In a shoit
ftrtlclo In September's ItcCIuro's on the
Use and abuse of cdmplcxtons.
This Is the ago of tho powder-puff and
tha vanity-box, he avers, and to object to
the rabbit's foot on any ground whatever
Is to put yourself In a class with those
who would see tho return of tho thumb
screw nnd tho ducking stool.
Ilut such objectors human anuchron
Isms, ho calls them do exist.
"An acquaintance of mine," ho writes,
"was recently telling mo of the breaking
off of his engagement. We live In reac
tionary times but think of this for his
reason I
" 'I called on her to tako her out for a
Walk",' he said, 'and when she came
downstairs dressed to go out, I thought
I noticed powder on her faco. 'Is that
powder7 I said. 'Of course It Is,' she
answered. 'Then,' said I, 'you go right
upstairs again, and wash It off, or you
don't .come walking with mo.
"'And did she?' I asked.
'"She did not,' ho answecd; nnd so tho
dream had como to an abrupt end.
"I looked nt him In astonishment, not
unmlnglcd with awe.
"'What a narrow escape!' I said.
" 'For mo?' said ho.
"'No!' said I, 'for tho girl.' And then
I asked him what archeologlcal museum
ho came from; and our engagement, too,
camo to an end."
I'owdcr Is not tho result of woman's
vanity, this poet-author tells us; It Is
simply tho result of her courteous rcsaid
for tho esthetic sensibilities of others.
Almost anything else Is mote satisfying
lo look at than a woman's shiny, un
powdcrcd face.
The seriousness with which Mr. Lo
Galllcnno takes up the cudgels Is what
T find most amusing. Almost had wo
forgotten that thcro was ever any moral
objection to paint nnd powder when
ntong comes a tnoio man to remind us
of It.
Judging from iccent observations I
have made, a young man rash enough to
cancel hN engagement becauso tho object
of his erstwhile attentions was addicted
to the reprehensible uso of powder would
have much dlfllculty In finding another
to whom to nttach himself. Lonely
bachelorhood would be his fate.
Ilut, Mr. L,o Gnlllcnm; to tho contrary,
few men npprovc of woman's uso of
cosmetics. If a wife or sweetheart were
suddenly to knock out a front tooth, or
become summarily bald, the possessor
of tho wife or swci'theait would bo tho
very first to urge her to tho dentist's or
tho wig-maker's. Hut lot her develop
anemia and great olllness of skin nnd
he'll raise tho roof at tho discovery
that she's calling upon att to obviate her
defects.
The only criticism that Mr. Lo Galllcnno
makes is that she Is not enough of tho
nrtlst.
"Perhnps," he says, "If they were to
sign their complexions as other artists
sign their pictures they would tako
more caro of nnd prldo In them. Certainly
some complexions are such masterpieces
that ono often long3 to know tho name
of tho artist." M'LISS.

THE WOMAN WHO SEWS
Headers irio desire help with their dress
problems ttlll address cammunicatttnts to the
Fashion Erpert, cart of the Hdltor of the
Woman's I'age. the livening Ledger.
Has Mcrrto England really set us tho
styles for fall? One fashion writer early
In tho spring, when short Norfolk sports
coats and flat pliocs camo Into style, de
clared that American women wero getting
more and more llko tho English girl In
her tweeds and lief stalwart boots. Sho
said that tho English Ideal of the out-of-doors
girl, with her hockey, tennis and
golf, was" slowly Influencing American -womanhood,
aided and abetted by the universal
pirt modes.
Be this as It may, whether wo bavo to
thank English country Ufa or college ath
letics or Just feminism for the popularity
of tho athletic -type, I am Inclined to sus
pect an Kngllsli origin In tho newest sport
hosiery for fall. It you've seen It you'd
understand my suspicion, for It's thick
woolen hosiery, the fuzzy kind that you as
sociate with gamekeepers and S r Walter
Scqtt's novels and that fort of thing.
Tho presence of ferocious stripes In green,
yellow or purple on a light gray ground
only confirms the impression. These stock
ings are built for service ; they are fine for
tramping, camping and sucn places where,
we wish our nether extremities to he dry
and warm. But no one could bo accused
of having a slender ankle In them.
Dear Madam What ltlnd of a foundation
would you put under a tancta dress? 1 am
makliur the dre up for early fall wear on the
atreet. Do you think this Is suitable for street
w'f.T A wb toili ,hat I could cet llghtwolslit
muslln'Ior ery little. Do you think this would
ser for a stronir -foundation. ANXIOUH,
j
Most of the sill: frocks I have Been had
coarse net for a foundation. It holds the
material firmly, and Is not so warm ns tho
muslin. There nro many warm days In
early fall that make you glad to have tho
net foundation. To reinforce tho whole,
get enough strong belting at tho notion
counter of ono of tho Bhops and stitch both
tho foundation and tho dress to this It
keeps tho frock In shape.
Parting at Morning
Tlound the cape of a sudden camo tho sea.
And the sun look'd over tho mountain's
rim:
And straight was a path of gold for
him.
And the need of a world of men for me.

Meaning of Wireless Signal
I canon forbear commenting upon a bit
of misinformation printed In this column
I wish to establish, If possible, that t'.ie
lettcis "3 O S" nro an arbitrary symbol
and not Initials.
First, ns to my credentials: I was, three
years ago. nn operator In the Starconl
AVlrcless Telegraph Company of America
on tho United Fruit Company steamship
Admiral .Schley. In early wireless practice
"O S" was used ns nn arbitrary signal
designating thnt a ship report was about
to ho sent. When, about 1010, tho Inter
national radiotelegraph In convention start
ed standaidlzatlon of symbols it found this
nlrcndy In use. For n distress signal It
wanted something distinctive S O S Is

likely to occur often ns a group of letters In

finally, tho uso of this symbol Is not re

International, there being Rome twentj

I might nlso add that the old C Q : D is
nlso arbitrary, ns any old land telegraph
