SELECTING COIORs.-The art of select
ing cOlors which Snit the complexion and
general style Of The woarcr, is not general
ly known among the ladies. The follow
ing hints may be useful to them:
For fair-haired or dark-haired ladies',
colOrs which produce the greatest con-
trast are best. Thus sky blue is very
becoming to ladies with black hair.
Color should never be put on in actual
contrast with rosy complexion, because
the latter loses by the comparison; it
should be separated by white lace blonde,
or, if be cap or bonnet, by locks ofhair.
Pale green is exceedingly becoming; it
makes them appear rosy-but is unfavor-
able to ruddy faces, for it makes them too
red. Violet should never be used for fair
compilations, except for very deep tint
for contrast. Avoilet dress will make a
fair complexion look green, and yellow
one Orange,-which is bad for ali com.
plexiOns. Dead white, such as calico. is
good for fair compilations, but bad for the
contrary: for which the white muslin. or
tulle. IN folds or en- rcche, is more adyan.
