A Famous Beauty's Cosmetic.

One of the most famous beauties was
Ninon de rEnclos. whose complexion was
the envy of the ladies of the French court.
Many were the compounds they tried to
produce fairness Of skin and rosy blush
to equal hers, but in vain.
The secret Of Ninon de PEnclos was one
which neither she nor her chemist-in those
days great ladies kept their chemists
would part with. 1t was only after her
death, at the age of ninety, that Maitre
d'Ouard told what had kept his mistress

CUT-OUT WORK AGAIN
oLD-FASHIONED EMBROIDERY Is
BELOVED ONCE MORE.
Everything Trimmed With II
for Inside and Outside
Wear.

The seven years cycle has brought back
the old fad for cut-out work. According to
all the advance styles and the new ma
terials displayed in the shops. cut-out en-
broidery is to play an important part I'm
summer things
Even the early spring goods, like voiles,
veilings and linen canvas, show beautiful
designs like spatter-work in cut-out EN-
broidery. The majority Of these are done
in the same shade of silk or linen, but some
of the novelties are embroidered in colors.
A gray yelling gown is embroidered with
an open-work clover leaf design done i'm
bright red silk. Another yelling gown of a
forest green is embroidered in white and
shows a fieur de lis design
But 1t Is to waist fabrics that more at
tention has been paid in carrying out this
idea. Dress patterns are shown in a be-
widering variety and In all shades In all
over cut-out designs. Soft, white mulls and
muslins with deep hOunces of this work are
among the prettiest things seen. Pale blue
and pink mulls are also embroidered in the
same manner, usually with white to give
character to the design. Instead of Va
lenciennes laces and insertions, cut-out en-
broidery is to be used to a great extent
even on diaphanous organizes and dotted
swisses.
Shirt waist suits of linens. piques and
pongees decorated in this manner are to
take the lead. The pongees are of a better
quality and look more like the real Chinese
fabrics. especially those which are en-
broidered in cut-out designs. One especial
ly smart pongee pattern gown shows
design of red embroidered rings all over IL
which would necessitate it's being made
over red silk.
Odd Belt Styles.
The belts worn with these gowns are
made of materials to match and elaborate
ly embroidered with cut-out work Manv
of the odd belts are of linen and in the
open-work embroidery. They are not only
considered chic, but are really handsome
Cut-out work has also invaded the realm
OF lingerie. Corset covers and skirts are
a network of open embroidery. Colored petit
coats, for practical wear with shirt waist
suits, are of chambray and pongee The
former comes in white, blue and pink The
latter is shown only in the natural color
and in a bluish-gray. Both have deep
founces of cut-out embroidery and nothing
daintier has been shown in many seasons
Baby hats and bonhets are made of all
over cut-out embroideries. figures and pom
gees. One made of null is over pale blue
silk with a frll of the latter underneath
edged with ValencienneS lace. A frill of
the embroidery falls over this, and a
wreath of dainty forget-me- finishes the
pretty hat

cry all button In the old-fashioned way so
that they can be taken apart when they are
Numbered. All of these have cut-out bands
and borders with buttonholed edges, which
add to their effectiveness.
Cut-out embroidered parasols in pongees,
silks and linens are the newest accessories
shown in this work.
