Miss DeWOlIe's Rare Perfume

Miss Elsie De Wolfe. the actress who
appeared at the Opera House last
nifht in "The Way OF the
World" affects a certain rare perfume
which is at once source Of pleasure
and of envy to her many friends.
This fragrant essence is distilled
especially and solely for her use by
one of the noted Partisan firms, and
not even to her most intimate ac-
uuaintances will the actress divulge
the secret combination of essential oils
which has resulted in her delicious
perfume. Arranged in her lingerie
baskets there are long fiat sachets Of
tufted pink satin, which carry the faint,
pungent Odor of her choice. Even the
ribbons of carnation pink, her favorite
color. which tie across each tray are
Derfumed with the same delightful fra
GRANGE. Hangers of carnation pink
taffeta padded with wadding and like
wise perfumed, support her gowns for
the street. as we'll as for the stage
Directly one enters her bOudOir, the
faint, yet haunting perfume is per-
ceDtible. In her dressing room at the
theatre it is also pleasantly assertive
Small wonder. therefore, that hel
friends have sought to coax her into
divulging the secret of its manufacture
for the perfume is one neither heavy
nor suggestive of the obnoxious musk
odor. but is. instead, light, lasting anC
distinctive fragrance Of which one does
not tire

Late Fashion Tips

Parasols are medium size and less

The flower fad extends to the
muffs. which for dress occasions will
largely supplant those of chiffon and
