COMPLEXION ROOM IN CAFE
Chicago Hotel Blds for Patronage by Furnishing Materials to Make Women Beautiful. Chicago.—One of the big Michigan avenue hotels Js making a bid for women patronfe through the novelty of a “complexion room.” No matter whether the fair diner’s big hat is crowning a medley of jetblack rats, puffs and red hair or whether her dome is topped with a bunch of drug store straw, the coiffure will look stunning in the “complexion room.” No matter whether the roses on the cheeks were procured at the corner chemist’s or whether her countenance in general is of the “marble” variety, she will “get away with it” in the “complexion room.” Said the president: “You know that’ certain colorings, decorations, wall paper and floor coverings will set off to disadvantage some complexions, especially by candle light or at night, making them look far from handsome. We will overcome this and make the case a veritable complexion room that will enhance the beauty, natural or artificial of any woman.”
