Garnishino for Linoerie Gowns.

Embroidered linen and lace medal
lions and galloons make wonderfully
effective garnishing for lingerie
gowns, whether placed at intervals
upon the skirt or arranged entire deux
with tucks, smaller sizes Of similar
pattern being employed for the blouse.
The lingerie costume, of course, is
worn over silk slip, preferably Of
chiffon taffeta, which. having no dress
ing, does not crack nor make the
rustling sound that is now considered
as an indication of vulgarity, for the
refined young woman, however ath-
letic, is expected to be a soundless,
velvet-footed, soft-voiced person of re-
tiring manner, although entirely self
possessed. Therefore, lingerie gowns
which look simple whatever their :osr,
perfectly suit her pose.

CARE IN CHOOSING coLoRs.
In This Lies Half the Secret of Good
Dressing.

A woman may be beauty or other
wise, according to her sense of color.
If she knows how to select the right
shade for her special type she has dis
covered half the secret of good dress
ing.
A colorless blond should avoid pur-
pie, dark green or black, but can wear
safely white, navy blue, pale blue,
pink, gray, amethyst and, possibly,
green with tinge of yellow in it.
The sallow woman should forswear
purples, browns, black or anything
with a touch of tan or yellow, but will
generally look we'll in dead white,
bright, strong blues and most shades
of red or pink.
The black-haired, red-cheeked wom-
an should be judicious in her use Of
her favorite reds and deep yellow, as
they have a tendency to give her an
ordinary, even, coarse look. She will
usually be at her best in white and
looks we'll In the champagne and light
tan tones.
The red-haired woman should
choose milk white, dull black and
light and dark green's. Browns and
tans, contrary to the usual belief, i'm
pair the purity of her complexion.
Warm, light gray is usually becom-
Ing to the red-haired woman, especial
ly If she has brown eyes, while very
pale lemon Is exquisite with ruddy
looks.
Few of our red-haired women recog-
nize the possibilities of this last color,
but it is we'll understood by the fa-
nous Partisan dressmakers, who use
gold and yellow to enhance the beauty
of many of their red-haired models.

The Corsaqe.

1t is only natural that with the prin-
cess and empire gown should come
the silk corsage, that bodice that fits
like a corset and can be made into
one of the most elaborate bits of dress
imaginable. Just now the new corsage
is quite short and it is rather plain
across the front to give a princess ef
feet, but the sides and under-arm
pieces will be furnished with finest
metallic laces and glistening trim.
mings of every description. The cor
sage is pointed at the front and back
of the yoke outline, straight across the
lower edge of the back and slightly
rounded at the waist line. 1t is sleeve
less, though the guimpe sleeves are
bits of beauty as well as the pretty
lace yoke.

SnoWdrop Oddly.

Some of the early hats are very
charming in their combination of
cheerfulness and warmth For in
stance, there is a smart little three
cornered arrangement in cream-col-
ored cloth, with knot Of brown vel
vet at one side. holding in place a
bunch of snowdrops, violets and a
high osprey Of shaded hyacinth and
jonquil.
A large picture hat in Parma violet
silk is crowded all over the crown
with white and colored violets tied
with silver ribbon, and catching up at
one side cluster of marabout in
shades of cream and mauve.
Then there is little round toque
with crown Of snowdrops put closely
together, with about quarter-inch Of
their stems wired erect beneath, so
that they have almost the appearance
of growing, and have none of the stiff
ness which spoils a good many flower
toques.

KEEP THE CHIN WELL UP.
Physical Instructor Says This is Sure
Cure for Round Shoulders.

One physical culture instructor in
Boston, who is having great success
in teaching round-shouldered girls to
stand and walk erect. says the whole
secret is in the way the head is held.
Throw up your chin" is her rule.
This throws the head upward and back
ward and the shoulders will naturally
settle backward and in their true posi-
ton.
Those who stoop in walking gener-
ally look downward. The proper way
is to look straight ahead upon the
same level with your eyes, or, If you
are inclined to stoop, until that ten
dency is overcome, look rather above
than below the level.
Mountaineers are said to be as
straight as an arrow" and the reason
is because they are obliged to look
upward so much. 1t is simply impossi-
BILE to stoop in walking II you heed and
practice this rule. You will notice
that all round-shouldered persons
carry the chin near the breast and
pointed downwards.

HOMEMADE AROMATIC VINEGAR.
Toilet Necessity That Is Comparative.
Iy Easy to Prepare.

While that familiar old saying, "A
peck of dust is worth a kings ran
son." may have truth for its founda
ton, 1t brings in its wake bad colds,
infiamed eyes, headaches and a host
of minor discomforts, writes Emma
Paddock Telford. Our grandmothers
used to make great use of aromatic
vinegar at such times. claiming that it
afforded relief to headaches, relieved
dizziness and faintness and even pos
sessed great anti-epidemic qualities.
At all events its pungent scent
and fragrant odor rendered it CRATE
fully refreshing. And what more can
we ask?
Most of the aromatic vinegar pur-
chased in shops is nothing but sui
phate of potash put up in small vials
impregnated with acetic acid made
aromatic with oil of rosemary or law
ender. A far better article can be
made at home after this old recipe:
Take four ounces each dried rosemary
tips and sage leaves. two ounces dried
lavender flowers, two drains bruised
cloves and four quarts distilled vine
gar. Macerate these ingredients in a
wooden or earthen vessel for week,
then filter the liquor and bottle. Some
add camphor.

New Gloves.

The dress gloves in long lengths are
very near the styles of those worn dur
ing the winter, but the stitching at
the back shows crows feet and the
gloves close at the wrist with two
large pearl buttons. The apricot and
champagne colors are very stylish
Just now and may be worn with cos
tune of an entirely different color.
Lavender gloves are no longer fash
ionable and the yellow ones are seen
only with carriage costumes. Street
gloves are the shade of the street cos
tune.

LACE COATS FOR SPRING.
beautiful and Desirable Ornament ls
to Be Fashionable.

Cluny lace shows signs Of being the
suits and voile dresses, although dur
ing the season just passed it has di-
vided honors with the ever fashionable
1rish. Even the lace coats for sum-
ner use are made of this pillow lace,
and during the last three years it
has relegated renaissance lace to its
proper use for curtains and table COW
ers
Cluny is a very beautiful and desir-
able ornament for any costume and
because 1t is made of linen thread
tt is especially appropriate as a dec
oration for linen dresses. At the same
time it is not as expensive nor as
heavy as the Irish crochet.
Some of the lace coats are tinted to
a deep shade of tan, while others Of
white are lined with silk in some light
shade. The popularity of cluny will
also prevent coats of embroidered filet
net from coming strongly into vogue,
for the darned net, no matter how
beautiful it may be, always has a
darned look, while lace should really
t,k like lace.
1t is yet too early to tell definitely
how smart the lace coats will be
made for ordinary wear, but certain
IL is that, if they are worn on the
street, they will not be strictly good

Exit the PIaits.

The plated skirt is rapidly disap-
pearing. New designs are cut circular
and circularly gored. AS for the trim
ming, the bias folds are disappearing
with the plaits and circular folds are
taking their place. This change is
most remarked in the walking cos
tune, which for so many seasons has
been modelled on the plated style
with little or no variation other than
in the grouping of the plaits and the
width of the bias bands. Skirts arc
longer, too, and walking length now
barely escapes the floor, while for a
costume inclined at all to formality
the skirt is long and trailing.

Medina Iron.

Very often that tired feeling, lost
zest in life, disinclination to move or
exert oneself, waking unrefreshed,
night sweats and utter weakness are
caused by nothing but too little iron
in the blood. Before you decide that
you are going into decline or typhoid
has you in it's first grip, ask your doc
tor if he does not think you need iron.
Even if you do not go to doctor try
taking for week or two some reliable
tonic that has iron or hypophosphites
in it.

than last year.
In new silks conventional patterns
are the most prevalent.
The pretty and practical jumper

Charming are new linen collars with
broad or narrow stripes ON white or
ecru.
Many early hats are of net with silk
bound rims.
A big bow Is the most usual adorn.
ment of the pioneer silk hat.
The spring almost surely will see
