Red hair, it is commonly called. has, until quite recently, been in diSrepute, save with the artists Blue, which has long been sup posed to be the one color that women greatest advantage is the one color that should never approach it. The colors that are best contrasted with red hair, par ticuarly where 1t is accompanied by brown eyes are cream -white, black, blue-green, olive-green and Ngray-green, maroon, stOne-gray, amethyst, plum color, brown, brownish purple and clear amber, which is most poetic color, also reds with an amber glint in them. The woman with this coloring should avoid ordinary reds, as she would an affectionate child that has been diving into jelly pots.
 The blue-eyed women of this type should seek particularly the greens, vel lows and stone-grays, the creamywhites and black

These tails are very cheap. They can be pur- chased for a dollar or two a dozen, and one dozen will very nicely decorate a good sized cape. These must be. pressed deeply into the velvet so as to look eX- aCtly like the black tails which dot piece of ermine fur.

 So while fur is coming in early and with d decided rush, there are modluca- tions of the material which take the place of the expensive skins. Many women who own a fur coat or a very expensive fur cape are not inclined to put it on so early in the season, and they are therefore glad to know of some little substitute for the heavy coat and rich cape suitable to wear during October and November. Many prefer to delay the fur season until the holidays. and in most lattudeS furs are only needed for warmth for the very cold est rays of winter, although as trim mings they are pretty all winter.
 At the beginning of the season it is hardly wise to purchase an expensive hat. Last winters hat. helped out with new bird. will do very nicely until the winter styles are declared.
 An English walking hat of straw was made to look very .wintTy by being faced along the side with gray velvet A Jlg gray bird with sweeping tail feathers was fastened upon the front.
 Even the sailor hat can take on a touch of autumn; dye the hat a leaf green. Bind the edge with purple velvet. place a band of the same velvet around the crown. and at the side drape an ostrich feather secured with a rhinestone pin. sailor hat treated in this way had also bunch of purple loops and ends massed at the back.

set prevailing mode unless 1t Is one that happens to accord with your particular face and hair and form. In a general way all women know that there Is law of eternal fitness In dress, as in all things, but few have the taste and fine discrlm- ination to apply the law to themselves.
 In short, stout women should never broad stripes or large embroiderieS, and particularly should she avoid the conspic- uous plaids which are to be so fashionab!e the coming season She should wear plain clinging neutral tinted goods. If she must have figured material, then let her con fine herself to the tiny checks, the hair stripes. small polka dots or other lncon- SpicuouS effects.
 The tall slender woman may, If she wishes, wear the most splendid materials; rich velvets, stately brocades, plaids and large figured goods. These will soften down her height and disguise her excess sive slenderness.
 The medium-Sized woman has Of course, the natural advantage over all others, as she can follow with degree of freedom, the prevailing fashions, whatever they may be.
 Refinement is shown in ones dress, so whatever the effect may be, do not let 1t be loud or conspicuous. The secret of being well dressed Is to have the colors and outlines so blended that the gen eraI effect will be pleasing, without being in any way noticeable. Let people say of you as pr. Johnson said in speaking of some one whom he had just met. ''I nm sure she was well dressed, for I do not remember what she had on.'
 In the selection of colors one cannot go far astray if one selects those which shade onto the hair or eyes. A woman with

 The sleeves that are worn with these capes are almost tight fitting at the shoulder. They may have a very slight puff of a very small trimming. but the cape so soon CruSheS the sleeves that a dress which is intended for street wear with a cape is purposely made narrow at the shoulders.
 Now is the time of year to wear little toque, if toques are becoming. Pretty soon it will be too cold to expose the head and the picture hat of winter will be in style. In the summer the sun must be kept from the face and in the spring the big hat and veil are fashionable; but just at this time the toque is in demand. and the woman who can wear one becomingly can now put it on. secure in the thought that she is fashionable.
 Velvet capeS are cut short. In fact all capes are shoulder capes; the long gar ment that hides the figure is unpopular. If a woman has any trimness at all she is averse to hiding it beneath the long, loose folds of the cape which covers the left belt line. A very fashionable length is just below the shoulders. The cape is then stiffened so that it sets out, thus avoiding the disfguring shoulder sag. These capes are lined with a brilliant col or, for the lining shows at the shoulders.

MISS LOUIS H.-Very often when the hair first begins to grow gray a tonic will, by strengthening and invigorating the hair bulbs, bring back the natural tints. The claret tonic which you speak of is very good for this purpose. The proportions are: Sixty grams genuine claret and one gram sulphate of iron. Boil for one minute. When cold bottle and cork. Wash the hair with the tonic twice a week, allowing it to dry on.
 MAY J.-For the oily skin use this To- tion: Alcohol, four ounces; ammonia, one ounce; oil of lavender, one dram. Mix by shaking in a six-ounce bottle. Add one Scant teaspOonful of this (nOt one drop more) to two quarts of warm water when the face is washed It will soften the water and wash away the oils which come to the surface of the skin. Never use soap upon your face when il has the effect you describe. You can improve the condition of your skin but very little so long as you have the chronic trouble you speak of. Have your physician give you something to remedy that condition. You will undergo all sorts of complaints un- less you do. Bitter apple is used in com binatiOn with Jamaica rum as a hair tonic.
 M-Try the treatment prescribed for a couple of months before getting disGoufe aged. You cannot expect iii couple of weeks to remedy a condition that has eX- isted for so long. In Sundays paper of September IS 1 gave a special talk on the treatment of blackheadS. l hope you saw it. A little bit of finely powdered borax put on a piece of linen and rubbed lightly into the skin will often help greatly.
 EUGENE N.-There is nothing better to cure sunburn than thick, sweet cream. Bathe the face with it several times and the color will soon die out and the sore ness disappear. Any good, pure cold cream rubbed into the hands at night will make them soft and white.
 MRS. K.-I consider the acid that you used quite dangerous as the one I sug- gested. However, as it did the work The hair that grew in the center of the mole should have fallen with the scab AS 1t did not there Is nothing but the

 OROCKA-Unless your freckles are of the always with-you" kind you will probably find the following lotion effica- cious in removing them: Three grains boraX; five drams rosewater; five drams orange flower water. Apply Immediately after coming in out of the sun. Of course the nail powder can be made at home but l think you will find it as wise to purchase the prepared powder from your druggist.
 MARGERIE-I think what you need is a good nOurishing skin food. There is none better than the orange flower skin food, formula for which has been given so many times in these columns In case you have not seen 1t l will repeat it: Spermaceti. F ounce; white wax, F ounce; sweet almond oil. ounce; lanoline, 1 ounce; cOcoanut oil. ounce; .tincture benZOin, 10 drops; orange flower water, 1 ounce. Melt the first five ingredients in a porcelain kettle. Take from the fire and add the benzoin and the orange flow CT water, f1uffing it with an egg-beater until cold. Rub this well into the skin al night after washing the face in tepid water and castillo soap. The rough patches that come out on your face are probably caused by an inactive liver. One-half dram hyphosulphite of soda to one-half ounce of water. Allow it to dry on.
