NEW COLOR, MANILLE.
The new color. MANTLE. much seen in
Paris in model hats and gowns, is a
very dark brownish taupe. and was seen
the past summer on several hats de-
signed by certain Partisan milliners.
1t is an especially becoming shade to
almost every woman, especially to those
past the bloom of youth, and. lightened
by brighter tints. it will do quite as
well for the still youthful woman
There are some astonis hing color com
binations in evening frocks being
shown.
YOUNG GIRLS HAIR.
Many girls are putting up their hair
this autumn for the first time. Remem-
Der that a simple arrangement is al
ways best. Any fake" curls. puffs.
or braids are most reprehensible on
young girls. and should be strictly
avoided. 1t is well to try several diff
ferent modes and study the effect from
all sides Do not adopt a style hastily
just because the girl across the street
does her hair that way

good embroiderer uses much pad
ding in working satin stitch and the
: like, nor does she attempt to make but
tonholed scallops without first running
in line of thread on both the outer
! and inner lines of the scallop, then
softly padding between the lines Pad
ding should be done with soft darning
. thread or UNFINISHED embroidery cotton.
A loosely run outline stitch is the best.
Take great care not to pucker the
work, and do not pad too near the edge
of the design.
