ALLEGED FALSE ALARM.
Member of Fire Department Accused
of Violating Law.

Ernest Hunt. thirty-three years of age
a member of No. Is engine company, was
before the Police Court this morning for
alleged violation of the regulation against
turning in a false alarm of fire.
1t was charged that Hunt, who lives at
1923 Pennsylvania avenue southeast
turned in an alarm from box 523 last
night in the vicinity of 18th and ! streets
shortly before / O'Clock. The company
of which Hunt is member was one of
the several companies that responded but
found no fire.
When the police of the fifth precinct
learned that the law had been violated
they made an investigation. Precinct De-
tectfve Smith found a number of wit
nesses who said they had seen Hunt turn
in the alarm and the latter was placed
under arrest.
When the case was called for trial to-
day Hunt was not ready with his wit
nesses. He asked for continuance until
Friday and his request was granted. Hunt
denies that he is guilty of the charge

Which Will Not Harmonize.
The combination of color in dress is the
most characteristic mark of good or bad

know instinctively, as it were, that there
Is something wrong when the wrong
colors meet, yet lack the power to say
exactly where the fault lies. while there
are others, judging from the exhibitions
to be met with every day. whose idea Of
harmony in colors is almost wholly alb
sent
Particularly is this true just now, when
fashion DEGREES that not only two or three
but even half a dozen colors may be COM
bined in one toilet.
When the entire costume is fashioned
from one shade there is much less chance
of offending the artistic eye, and the prob
lem Of dressing tastefully is comparatively
an easy one. Not so, however, when color
runs riot. and these oftimes in the most
difficult shades and tones.
Some years ago there were few simple
rules in regard to contrasting colors that
were quite easy to follow, because then
blue was really blue. say from light to
dark and the same might be said of other
colors, but nowadays there are the oldest
looking green's blush violets. and the

should be put into the wash at least once

must be rinsed either in strong ammonia

them sweet and at the same time extract
a most amazing amount of dirt.
Sponges should always be hung by
cords on hooks that they may get all the
air possible. and it is best to put them in
the open air Just outside of the window
to dry.

Shades That Do Not Harmonic.

Violet and blue are perhaps the most
difficult colors to combine successfully.
which really goes without saying, for the
fact has been most glaringly manifest to
even casual observer during this winter.
Pale blue combined with blush violet
instantly takes on tinge of green, not
bad in effect If the right tones are chosen.
Pure violet and pale blue simply kill each
other. A deep shade of prune and pale
blue go together, and so do light blue
and a reddish violet.
y pale blue ribbon may decorate hat
of violet in different shades, but it will
take an artist to make 1t success.
Blue and yellow harmonic. By this
do not mean that any shades may be
chosen; a little discretion is necessary.
For instance, navy blue cloth suit
trimmed with gold braid or facing to
collar and cuffs of cloth in a mustard or
banana shade would be in good taste.
while a good deal of yellow in a vivid
shade disposed oyer the gown would be
nothing short of grotesque.
Deep blue and deep red are safe COM
bination; the former. however, must pre-
dominate. A blue dress should be trimmed
with red and not vice versa. The same
rule will apply to that pretty girlish COM
bination of blue and pink. A pale blue
pink rosebuds is charming, but just i'm
agine a pale pink hat trimmed with for
Eet-me-nots. Yet the colors are the same,
the proportions only are at fault.
Tan, which is really orange mixed with
black looks well with almost any shade
of blue. and the gray blues are effective
with a touch of tan colo-.
Dull Yellow and Heliotrope.
There is a dull yellow green called
citrine that harmonizes well with the he'll
iotrope shades and also certain tones OF
old roses. True, helitrope combines pref
tily with dull pale yellow. and olive green
is particularly successful when meeting a
copper color. Very faint touches of pale
pink will brighten olive green. and en-
erald green combined with pale blue is
often pleasing in effect.
Gray Is most attractive trimmed with
pale pink. rose color and either of the
paler yellows. or. going to the other ex-
trene, the deep burnt orange shade
All the browns. whether on the golden.
chestnut, chocolate or leather shades. may
be safely combined with blues or greens.
Due regard. however. must be given in
selecting shades that go together.
A new safe rule to follow may be given
When two colors do not look well to-
gether, separate them with white when
ever possible. Many people have an idea
that everything can be toned down with
black. This Is a mistake. Black lowers
the tone certainly when placed in contact
with the colors. but it becomes dull in
Itself. besides imparting a certain amount
of dizziness to the colors In anything but a
pleasing effect. White, on the contrary
takes on a tinge of the colors it seeks to
modify. and with artistic results.
Black and white are always q safe COM
bination.
