stood. l asked her if people ever tried
TO get frocks without paying for them;
she said, occasionally, but If any wo-
man took a frock from one Of her girls,
and did not give her the money. she
acted promptly, and sent a policeman
at once to demand, either the money or
the frock.
am a believer in beautiful Gowns,
and the woman who is not has some
thing wrong in her general makeup.
Ii is part of a woman's life to look her
best And although l have heard wo-
men say that they don't dress for men.
l think il is all nonsense. Ii may be
that men don't look at the details Of
dresses, but they are influenced bv the
general effect, and they are very quick
to notice untidiness. There are women
so lacking in womanly knowledge that
they never get becoming gowns. There
is the fiat-cheSted woman, who looks
utterly shapeless, and who says, NO.

Il PREFER A NATURAL FIGURE"
Now, when the natural figure is hide
Gus art should come 10 the rescue. and
the wise dressmaker is the one who
pays no attention TO this nonsensical
chatter, but who carefully inserts lust
enough cotton TO make the curves
where there are angles, and makes that
woman look more feminine and less
hobbledehoy. Then there is the other
woman with the fiery red face, who W..

will tone down the color in her IA
and so will black. Then, 100, ther@
the woman with the ! cNuhced fea-
lures, who, for some Unknown reason.
elects that her bodice shall be decorat-
ed in miniature buttons. On these but
tons are the faces of women whose fea-
lures are perfect, and somebody is
bound TO find and find ludicrous the
contrast. The woman with the long
chin or long nose should learn to hold
her head back, SO that these features
are not made more prominent She
with ugly teeth should smile. but never
laugh so that they show. while the w0-
man with dumpy hands must stick re-
ligiously to dark gloves leaving The
light ones to the possess0rs Of long,
slender fingers.
The artist i'm dress chooses veil
with thin mesh, and rather small dots
on it; the large ones, q great distance
apart, have the effect Of black splotchcs
on the face and If a dot happens 10
land upon one eye and another on tho
tip OF ones nose, the effect Is ridicu-
lous. a something that a woman can
never afford. The blonde can reycl adj

color of the spring milne, while the
brunette. because Of he rich color and
her glossy hair, may put on pale blue,
that exquisite color only becoming 10
the perfect brunette, the angel child,
and those other angels with wings,
harps and perfect complications. The
blonde. already cold, is made TO look
colder and more colorless when she as

should never wear a tailor-made suit.
She needs fullness to conceal her extra
flesh. She whose foot is badly shaped
should beware OF q white shoe. or q vel-

rosette TO conceal her lack Of instep.
ARTISTIC DRESSING.

one who utilities her belongings TO ac-

defects. Unless a neck is beautiful ID
