LIPS LIKE WINE.
“ The least romantic of women,” announces a daily newspaper with habi tual enthusiasm, “can possess lips like wine for the price of a new lipstick ” Not only the colours, says a writer in London “ Truth,” but the flavours of this exotic salve are borrowed from the wine-cellar. Port, burgundy and claret are appropriate to the brunette, while blondes are expected to prefer grenadine, chianti and madeira. There is no indication that this is an advertisement, whether for a mental home or otherwise. On the contrary, it achieves prominence on a page customarily devoted to household advice for women, and itself belongs, apparently, to the same category.
