THE GARMENTS TO WEAR TO
SECURE GOOD PHOTOGRAPH
Simple Frocks in Black or White That Do Not
Stampthe Picture as Fashion Model
Should Be Selected.

"What gown shall wear and now Shali
1 dress my hair?" are problems every
woman solves when she has her photo
graph taken.
Some decide upon the toilet after such
self-ouestioning as shall my costume be
a simple street dress-an afternoon gown
high or low in the neck--nly sleeves-shaA
they be short or long,"
The choice of color. too. should enter
largely into the problem. for. of course
some shades take much better thah
others.
Now. while it is advised that the SIM
plest kind of robe be worn when one Is
photographed, It should be frock thal
wiz not date the picture because of pro-
ro,,nced style thus making the likeness
hopelessly old fashioned in few years
A picturesque toilet is to be preferred
to a merely up-to-date fashionable one,
for attractive models never really so OUT
Of fashion.
For this reason. when the neck and
shoulders are pretty. there is no better
model than the decollete, draped Win
chiffon or soft fril.
Looking over old photographs 1t Will be
seen that tho neck dressing more thah
any other portion OF the picture DECIDES
the date at which It was taken. Hence the
wisdom Of adopting style that never
gets old.
Elbow sleeves will be a. safe choice. al
though there Is no objection to quite snort
sleeves provided the arms are pretty.
Colors That "Take'' Best.
Black takes better than colors. and
black frock cut comparatively low ana
draped around the shoulders with white
will make a clear photograph with sharp
~ defined lines.
White takes to advantage and so does
gray Pale blue, pale pink. mauve and
light green come out white; red; aar carr.
brown. heliotrope. navy blue and DARK
pinks, such as cerse. appear black when
photographed.
stripes, checks or plaids are not a sue
cess in a picture. as they have tendency
to cut the figure, and this. Of course Is
made still more emphatic in a photo
graph. 10

HELP FOR NAVY YARD IS URGED
CONGRESS ASKED TO AID By
CITIZENS ASSOCIATION.
Law Wanted to Prevent Severance
of Railway Connections Which
Would Reduce Force.

That Congress should act promptly to

threatened cutting off Of railroad connec-
ton with the naval gun factory was
unanimously declared by the Randle
Highlands and Twining City Citizens AS
ISOLATION at its meeting last night in the
Baptist Church at Randle Highlands.
The matter was called to the attention
Of the organization by Rev. Elias Anger,
who presided. He read Of the proposed
action Of the railroad authorities from a
communication from Capt. j. Walter
Mitchell. president OF the association, who
was unavoidably absent.
The communication recited that the pro-
posed action of the P. B. and w. Rail-
road Company contemplating the removal
of the tracks from NJ street southeast
without constructing a spur from the
Pennsylvania avenue bridge into the navy
yard would, according to navy officers, re-
suit in the probable dismissal of 1900 me-
chanics and helpers from the establish

matter may be taken before the railway
commission and a remedy asked. Frank
Crane told Of the present schedule and
the Inconvenience it occasions the resi-
dents Of the country beyond the Pennsyl-

THE FACE VALUATION
OF THE FLATTERER

"Do women like to be fiattered?' is the
question propounded by a mere masulihe.
Onlv a man would have asked it. because
every woman, If she is willing to ADMIT
the truth to herself. knows that she likes
II. Equally she IS aware that frequently
many of the charming things said or IN
situated are fattery, and in that sense
are not true. But even so, the mere TACT
that she knows their untruth saves her
from putting any great faith in the state
ments and she receives them on the basis
Of its being nicer to hear pleasant speeches.
than unpleasant ones.
But the great underlying reason that a
woman is willing to be fattered. even
when she knows the words are not sincere.
is because the pleasant speeches are evok-
ed from a desire TO please. That in itself
justlfies the deception. ii there is any,
and makes flattery desirable coin IN the
circulation Of social currency.
The Flatterer Is Liked.
SO even though q person Is commonly
known to fatter, the individual who does
1t will be far more popular and welcome
than one who goes through life saying
brusque truths with a manner regardless
of the feelings OF others. 4 f1atterer is
by no means necessarily an untruthfui
person, overdone il becomes nauseous de-

good taste, provided, OF course, they are
becoming TO the wearer.
Wells should not be worn in a photo
graph. if only for the reason that 1t is i'm
possible for the photographer to touch
up or tone down the features when
covered with "a veil, and there are few
faces that do not require little re-
touching.
Hair Must Be Becomingly Dressed.
Hairdressing In relation to photo
graph is a most important detail
The hair should never by any chance be
arranged SO ii is too tight, no matter
whether or not the possessor follows a
tight, severe effect in everyday life
Here. too. fashion should be sacrificed for
becominsness. A full, fat face should
have the hair dressed high. the hair on
the sides just puffed and huffed. Too
much hair around the face will result
in an unpleasant heaviness Of feature
and so should be avoided. The slightly
waved pompadour is always in sooc
taste.
Oval faces can wear tho hair dressed ir

photographs. This is due. of course, &c
the fact that the eyes, lashes and eye
brows, being dark. arc more accentu'

Stout women should never attempt 4
feI-ieng;h picture unless clad In long
sweeping draperies, and even then it is
not advisable. a bust only or three
quart er-length is a far better choice.
Tall, slender women will. OF course
show the figure to advantage when taken
full length
Posing may safely be left to the artist
who will probably know better than the
sitter how the best points may be brought
out.
