Transform Gift Into One of
New Black Satin
Models.

The girl who was Just dying for one
OF the new black satin coats. but had
none OF her allowance 10 devote 10 IL,
was in despair until an aunt sent her
fun satin skirt to wear with shirt
waists
The girl ,pated separate blouses and
skirts ana there was plenty OF satin TO
make fetching coat. cut on the direc-
.oire model. with long, straight lines IN
the back and cut square just above the
waIstline IN front, for two inches on
either side OF the center. and the ma
teriaI then sloped sharply away.
The sleeves were long and tight-fit-
ting and were easily managed. as they
could be placed under the long line OF
dull silver buttons that ran from the
shoulder to the wrist.
The front OF the coat had a long re-
we're running almost TO the waistllne,
faced with black satin and bord cred
with an inch-wide gallcon of duh silver,
with a big button in the corner OF the
lapel.
The coat was worn open 10 show a
long directoire vest cut on the same
lines as the coat. This vest was made
from a brocade party frock of an ashes
of roses tone, and was braided IN a
scroll design an inch in from the edge.
with silver braid.
The only thing new about the coat
was the braid and four big silver but
tons to match the smaller ones, which
were cut from an old gown.

RED NOSE SIGN
OF INDIGESTION
Use No Powder, But Look
for Cure by Removing
Fundamental Cause.

Indigestion is the cause OF a muddy
complexion and many other disagree
able things. bat one OF its most IN
ightly results is a red nose.
The only permanent way 70 get rid OF
the redness is 70 remove the cause, and
this IS sometimes tedious work.
The first thought Of any one is to try
ard hide the redEess by applying pow
der. This should not be done, as il ia
most injurious to the iuhamed skin.
If one Is compelled 10 go TO some so
cial function or somewhere in public
where II seems almost necessary TO
powder the irritated nose It should be
washed of Immediately after the af-
fair
II is beneficial to wash the inside
the nose with the following lotion:
Borax, one dram; soda bicarbonate. one
dram: soda chloride, one dram: white
sugar, one dram. Use one tablespoon
ful OF this mixture in a tumbler OF COM
fOTtably warm water at night. Never
syringe the nose, as the lotion may be
forced into the ear, causing serious
trouble.

LONG HIP CORSET
IS CORRECT STYLE

sired in Keeping With
Fashions Decree.

The long hip corset is row looked
upon as the most correct style in cor
setry. 1t IS no longer q fad, but is &C
cepted without question by all women
Of any fashionable preJensions. Dame
Fashion declared year ago that ali
signs Of embOnpOint must disappear,
and the corset is looked upon as the

A number OF extremely long models
are shown Corset buyers OF large de-
paTtments report an eYer-incrsasing de-

In order TO attain the desired hiDieSs
effect, cOrsets are not laced as tight IN

are reduced at the expense OF the waist
But the effect Is all around SlendernesS

The high bust corset is still in demand
and the brassiere attachment is desir8-
bic for the too generously proportloned

all abrupt corset outlines which destroy
the lines of the outer garment

SHEATH SKIRT GOES
TO AN EARLY GRAVE
Gown Much Discussed and Pictur-
ed Fails TO Survive Adverse
Criticism.

The sheath sltirt-long may she rest
in peace-is dead, quite dead, and
buried. And how long ago all the talk
about it seems, How old-fashioned it
would be nowadays, that once widely
heralded sheath skirt. How quickly it
has passed into the limbo Of the for
gotten, and how well We manage to
dress without =.
It will appear during the coming sea-
son, possibly, on persons who seize
every daring style in sight and make
the most Of it. But no woman Of sane
taste will adopt a model already six
months old and riddled by sensational
Chit-chat-the sheath skirt with lash to
the knee, or above, showing a knicker-
bockered limb without the saving grace
Of a petticCat.
Even the slashed skirt which prom
ised to be a favored model in hand
some toilets, Is not looked upon with
favor by the best dressed elegantes
though Ii is shown in a few dressmak-
ing establishments. The slashes in such
cases are mere effects underlaid with a
contrasting material and edged with
trimming or buttons A great many
such skirts are seen, but they are con
spicuously absent, as has been said
from some of the best makers models
and the reason Is obvious.

RAT NOT IN EYID- NEE
IN NEW C0IFFURES
Must Take Great
Pains to Do Up Her Hair
to Conform to Style.

The fashic nable hairdressing Of his
season shows the hair parted in the
front or a little az one side, as con-
sidered becoming. It is puffed at the
sides and taken back 20 the crown Of
the head or the nape Of the neck, de-
peniing upon the quantity OF the hair.
IF the macs Of hair is insufficient to
make an effective knot, then it is
twisted tightly and concealed under
a bit OF artificial hair.
A short braid, quite wide. is then
laid around the head in the front, the
ends concealed under the puhfed hair.
BY the way there must be no sus-
pIciOn OF a rat for keeping the pulled
hatr in place. Instead. two little finger
lengths OF Lair fringe are used Just to
make the hair thicker, but all stiffness
is avoided For a finish a group Of
curls is arranged in the nape Of the
neck, almost reaching the crown, where
il IS surmOunted by a comb. This
couture is not artificial looking. al
though seven-eighths Of the hair is
false.

This knot was favored by English
women last year, being especially
