PERFECT EYEBROWS
Perfectly formed eyebrows are twenty times more frequent in women than in men, according to Professor. Suk, a Hungarian scientist. Of 470 pairs of eyebrows examined, only 96 were evenly formed without spreading, and 95 per cent, of them were those of women. Peaked eyebrows, rising in the middle, were found only 12 times.. A second typically female form is thinning towards (lie oilier edges, the male occurrence being only one-third of the female. The form of eyelashes the professor found to be hereditary in many cases, especially in two abnormal types—one bent inwards and the other long and hooked at the end. The much desired type of long, curved eyelashes proved to. be a child form, the chance against it being retained to maturity being as great as two to one.
