Essentials of Beauty as Enumerated 'by an Expert of To-day. What Is essential to a prottY w man? Here is the answer as given by -a modern'beauty expert. A pretty woman, tirst of all, must have clearly cut, regular features. She mtiust have a skin above re proach, untouched by rouge or powder. She must have full, clear eyes. She must haive eyelashes long and curling upward. She must have eyebrows' finely .marked, slightly arched, long and nar row; yet the narrow line should be thickly covered, so as to be well mark ed, as If pencilled. She must have a straight nose, yet delicate, neither fleshy, nor pointod, nor broad at the tip, with the nostrils free and flexible. She must have a mnou-ih rather toc. large than too snall, with lips full and plump and rosy red. Even atn ox (luisitely shaped mouth has no clarm Without expression. She must have oven, regular teeth, of indoerato size, poarly white, with full enamel. She must have a chin neither sharp nor blunt, but gently undulating in Its line, round and cushlony, turning a little upward, with a dimple inl it. She must have a small, delicate jaw, not large and angular, which gives a hard, domineering look. She must have a throat round, full and pillar-like-a marble column to support the head. She must have glossy hair that has never known the touch of bleach or dye. :-'he must fully understand what best suits her in the way of hairdressing, and cling closely to that style. She must have small, delicate, com pact cars of a shell-like shape. She must have a forehead smooth, even, white, delicate, short and of an open, trustful character. Arlosto says "of terse ivory was the joyous brow." She must have a long and dencate hand, yet plump, with tapering fingers. the tips of which, when resting on the palm, should turn back a little. She must have a nail "transparent like a ruby among pink roses"-not long, not round, nor altogether square, but of a fair shape, with a white cres cent visible at the base. She must have a foot not too small, but proportioned to the stature it sup ports; white, well arched, with a curved outline and a smooth surface. She must have an arm with a round and flowing outline, no sharpness at the elbow, and tapering down gently to a small wrist. She must'have sloping shoulders, not '00 broad. She must have a waist twice the size of her throat, not, as fashion has too often made it, nearly the same size. She must have hips high and wide. She must have a good figure, plump enough, yet slender enough, though never suggestive of an angle. She imust know how to poise the body, in other words, how to stand correctly. She must know how to sit without )eing stiff-walsted. She must possess the pose and re poise that mark the "daughter of a hundred earls." She must have a gait which may be likoned to that of a Diana following the hounds. She must know how to climb stairs, also how to conme down stairs, grace full, without an attempt to push holes in the step~s. She umust have a flexible, vibrant, caressing, tender, poetic, crystalline voice. She moust know how to put on her clothes, or she loses half her beauty. A woman may have all these attrac tions---be either dark or fair, tall or short, slender or full formed, grave or lpiluant, majestic or vivacious, serene or brilliani-anid unless her own per sonality is charming, unless she has tact, it dawnws on you, after you have seen her once or twvice, that she is not a piretty woman, but a pretty doll. The Cost of a Conclave. "What is the cost of a Conclave?" The uuedion was asked yesterday of a well-known clergyman, and this was his reply: "That of 1575, which resulted in the elections of Leo XIII., involved two bills, one of $11,734.28 for carpenters' and masons' work, hocksmiths, paint ers, gas, glaziers, and electric bells; the other of $4,000 for fitting up the Sistine Chapel. But this was dirt' cheap comhimr-ed with the figures for some proi'ceding conclaves. That of 1831i, when Ghregory XVI. was elected, cost $1-l4,756.I8, and the elections of l'lm VIII. and Leo XII. were respon bible for $127,702 and $08,425, respec tively. These conclaves all took place during the last century; but before that period conclaves were both long er~ and mor-c frequent, so that it was found necessary on several occasione to limit beforehand the expenditure oni a lpaplal election. Tihus, Alexander VIII. limited the number of the func tionaries of the Conclave and cut down their emiolumuentsq and perquisites." l'hihlelphia l'rss A small girl of four was accosted by a lady in the neighborhood: "Good amorninag, Susie.
