Walter Besant in the London Queen:

what he would. Il am now he said, IRE

COLOR SENSE IN DRESS.

fOTHING delights the eye as coiors
nj properly narmonized, while nothing
" iars on q sensitive organization as
L u much as lllassorted tints. The
employment OF color has its foun-
iation in philosophical laws. for certain
shades In close proximity to other tints
partake somewhat OF their quality, either
raising or lowering their tone.
Above all should the woman who values
aer appearance study the proper appii-
cation of color to dress. The reason that
dark red is becoming to brunettes is be
cause IT whitens the skin by contrast
Yellow. especially the dark rich shades, is
fattering to olive-skinned women, as 1T
causes them to seem fairer by contrast,
one tone neuiralizing the other.
Deep rose Is n difficult color to manage,
FOR under it most dazzling complexions
lose their freshness when brought in CON
tact with certain shades of pink
Violet should never be worn by women
with muddy skins. as 1t emphasizes the
yellow in their complexion. II is adapted
10 both brunettes and bonds with high
color, as 1t tones them down.
While the delicate shades of blue, such
as forget me not, sky blue. and turquoise,
are eminentiy becoming to fair women,
they are not flattering to dark ones.
Dark blue ma lie safely worn by blonds
and brunettes.
Green is par excellence the color of
fair, spirituee-lookingw women. II should
not. however, be doBned by those with
too palld cheeks, as 1t accentuates their
paIlor. Green. however the most trying
shades, may be safely adopted, provided
a little lace or frili intervenes. which
accentuates all other tones.
Dead white is exceedingly trying and
only becomes persons with lovely pink
tinted complexion. Cream and ivory white
can be more safely worn These white
materials look well on blond and brunette
alike as they take onto themselves the
vaporous gray tones. due 10 the trans
mission of light.
Black. while universally worn. is not
always becoming. and an ailblack gown
is apt TO age a woman and bring out
facial defects. However, black. especially
velvet twill and chiffon, are likely to be
becoming to persons. especially in con
junction with touch OF color. some
women with fair coJuplexions become bril-
liant when in con iuaotlon with unreieved
black.

friendly curbstone or raised footpath is
handy, but to stand on tiptoe in the road
while the dress is adjusted TO the saddle,
and then effect good start. is a gymnastic
feat which few are equal to, especially on
an up or down grade. The fact is, this
is not the best way to mount. The best

easy TO learn, but far more effective. and
