EYES AND EARRINGS
The type anil colour on an car-ring have such a very pronounced effect on the beauty of a woman's eyes that far more care and thought should bo given to their selection than is generally the ease. If you have a. short neck never choose a long ear-ring, for it will dwarf the neck and make it look shorter. Long ear-rings -arc only for those with a long, slim neck. For those with a thick, short throat, a largo stud is far more becoming. Diamonds, though beautiful in themselves, should never be chosen for carrings, for they make the most melting eyes look hard and soulless, and give an old look to a young face. If worn they should always be set in conjunction with pearls to give a softening ■effect. , Pearls may be worn with success by any colour eyes and any typo of face, The blue-eyed 'woman, should choose turquoise for her ear-rings, both for day and evening occasions. Should tho eyes be hazel, then jade should bo the stone decided on, for it will bring out all the delicate green j tints of a hazel eye. For tho brown-1 eyed there arc topaz and cornelian earrings, while the black-haired will bo ; wise to decide on amethysts, which give | a lovely light to very dark eyes. Goldcar -rings look well on a dark woman, and if she is of the gypsy type, with dark hair and olive skin, the Creole ear-ring will enhance her style. Long ear-rings of coloured enamel work , are also becoming to the dark women i with an exotic type of beauty.
