"NEW YORK, July. 7. Eleanor

achieving beauty, said she found real
complexions of the . peaches and
cream sort still admired and desired
in England, and French women eager
to acquire the same rosy naturalness.
The. women of Poland and of Vienna
also, were changing artificially to
brunettes by using a brown powder
that gives them somewhat the aspect
of. an Indian. Because of the brevity
of bathing skirts, fat women were
seeking . to reduce the size of the
legs, slim legs being all the style
now. Dimpled knees, even on slim
legs, -were also fashionable, and it
was considered the right thing to
have dimples painted where natural
ones do not exist.
