Well-Dressed Hair
Is First Requisite
of the Debutante

To be real smart the debutante
must start on her career with hair
we'll dressed The all-over net is an
absolute necessity. Flying locks and
stray curls are fetchingly pretty, but
fashion has set its stamp OF approval
on the neatly dressed hair with prim
puffs and prim curls. The all-over net,
matching the hair exactly, is not dis
coverable and keeps stray hairs in or
der from breakfast till midnight. They
are real timesavers.
Wells were never in greater demand.
The counters are piled with the most
charming fancies in rufiled frilled and
bordered wells. The best for face wear
is the genuine thread with a tiny
ring. 1t is not so trying to the eyes.
The big dot nets and extravagant
styles are used for hat draperies, set
ting off any kind of a chapeau grace
fully.
Stripes which make their bow for
the first time in the summer gone re-
appear in linens and silks for service
blouses. Just bit striking, they are
still to be liked as a novelty. One
combination is brown, blue and white
in quarter-inch stripes; another ia
vorite blue, green and white; another
red, black and white, the stripes clear
and stunning when made up with
some vertical, others horizontal and
others bias.
Elastic belts, steel studded, take
precedence in the belt world. Hand
some leather belts toned to suit cloths
are brought in by French importers.

Finest Laces Used
by Those Who Fancy
the Dainty Jabot

The jabot of fine real lace so much
affected by the Parisienne is nothing
like so much worn here, even by
women of fashion.
There is no end to the richness Of
the lace employed, and the rarest of
old point laces, as we'll as the point
laces of the day, are used. In such
cases, OF course, great care is taken
in the arrangement of the iabot so as
not to tear or cut the lace in any way
In many cases the jabots are mar
row and come to the top of the girdle;
others are shorter, and many are
wider as well
They are worn not only with lace
collars attached to blousses but with
the high, stiff linen collars attached
to satin blouses, deliberately embroid-
cred or cut with lace bands.
OF course the stiff linen collar is
death-dealing to the natural beauty
| of the neck, but so long as they are
fashionable many will wear them.
Fortunately, the society girl or woman
| changes her costume so many times a
day that the linen collar is worn for
few hours only at time.
One of the jabots in rare old rose
point dull hued with age was gathered
to, straight strip of satin ribbon
The latter did not show, of course
and down the center were four little
cloth of silver covered button molds,
| q rnYtr,, to- Ill. III
bon laid in a series of five tiny plaits,
Que on top of the other, each cluster
fiaring out bit like a fan.
The different shades of blue, espe-
cially Natter, now the really smart
| blue worn in Paris, or in pink, are eff
fective, while pale shades carrying
out the color scheme of the gown or
the hat may be worn, and all set off
! the beauty of the lace.
For the woman with little to spend
Ealenciennes lace makes charming
j0bots, but this must be kept a pure
white or else dipped to make it a true
cream or pale yellow in order to be
effective. The yellowish, soiled tones
Of cal old lace have no beauty when
carried out in Valenciennes.
Black satin buttons and little fiat
loops of black satin are effective, and
NalencieEnes collars of the shaped
sort higher behind the ears may be
made over pattern and finished with
hebe ribbon of black velvet at the
top and a smart little bow of inch
wide ribbon in the front at the base
of the stock.
These stocks must, of course, be
properly boned. No stock of any sort
has even a shade of smartness unless
it is bCned

JeweIed Tassels,

Jeweled tassels are AL the rage.
They are made of pearl fringe with
diamond tops, which generally have
small stones surrounding them. They
are used to finish the ends of long
platinum and pearl chains that are
worn twisted once around the neck,
or may be seen hanging from brooches
or pendants. The empire necklaces
or diamond clasps threaded with black
velvet ribbon threo-eighths of an inch
wide are shown among the novelties,
For while women wore only the
clusters Of diamonds, though the very
large ones are much sought and some

Brown Decorations Used.

Brown paper is very much used for
the diningroom, that part below the
chair rail being darker than that
above. The walls should be unadorned
except for the pieces of china and
rare pottery perhaps. In such a
brown room yellow silk curtains, just
to the sill, are very pretty. White
woodwork adds much to the charm
of the room, but darker wood is pre-
ferred by many.

The operation will probably be

South Amboy, Oct. 14:-Death
this morning ended the agonies of
two-year-old Frank Treschock, son
of Frank Treschock, of Mechanics
Vile, who was painfully burned while
at play yesterday afternoon.
The little one, with playmate of
about his own age, was in the street
opposite his parents residence. Sud-
denly, childish screams rent the air
and Mrs. Glenn Pohl, an aunt of the
Treschock boy, ran from her house
into the road and, at the risk of her
own life, tried to smother the flames.
Her brave efforts were in vain, for
the tiny sufferer succumbed to his
injuries early today.
Mrs. Pohls hands were so severe
ly burned that she may not be able
to use them again, or, at least, not
for long time. Her pain is intense
and her praises are being sung by
all who have heard of her heroism.
1t is not known how the young

1t is supposed that he was playing

DO YOU WANT
TO WORK FOR
$IOO MONTE H?
You Can Be Your Own Boss,
Choose Your 0wu Hours and
Be Out OF Doors Besides.
EVENING NEWS BIG OFFER

test for cash prizes in which $500 in
gold is to be given away.
The first prize is 5000. AS the
contest is to close December 15 1t
has just two months to run This
means the winner of the first prize
will make $500 in two months OF
800 a month. That Is considered
pretty good wages, especially as you
will be your own boss while working
and can use your own time and
method. Any person, by systematic
ally planning out a campaign Of SOL
letting new subscribers for the
NEWS and by collecting coupons
regularly, stands a good chance of
winning that $500. Surely the
amount is worth working for. You
would have to labor pretty hard in a
factory to earn that 800 a month
for two months.
The best way is to look upon this
thing as an employm ent. Say to
yourself that you have a job at 500
a month Off the next two months.
Lay out your campaign and work
just the same as you would have to
do If some Office employed you at the
same salary.
But the first prize is not the end
There are fifteen in all If you don't
get the 5000 you may tsand second
and receive 500. This is not to be
ignored in these times A salary of

down to SIS for the last four of the
fifteen who are to be rewarded. Read

want work should not get busy at
once. If you want cash, and every
one wants that around the fifteenth
of December, a few days before
Christm as, this is your opportunity.
Save the coupons regularly and keep
at 1t. New subscribers count big and
the outcome will well repay you for
your trouble. In fact it should be no
trouble, for If you we're working in
some Office for 800 a month you
would not look upon it as trouble.
