YOUR NEW FALL BLOUSE

One Of the new blouses that have
been put upon the market this fall is a
somewhat novel and attractive revival
OF the old time Jersey. It has Just the
combination Of attractiveness and
durability that one always longs. for
and seldom finds in a blouse-a little
garment that can be tucked into an
overlooking hand bag and not feel the
pressure like lingerie or. silk affair
would under the same circumstances.
It is made Of just the material that
they used for the top of your last
years satin petticoat. Perhaps the
change in styles left the makers with
an Oversupply Of this durable fabric.
and some ingenious person bethouRht
himself Of converting i: into waists.
But If such was the case it was a hap
Ply thought, for these blouses are very
smart. The dressier models are sim
ply made and richly embroidered.
while others are more tailored In ap-
pearance. They are laid in plaits and
trimmed with strappings of silk cord
and buttons.
Crepe de chine blouses are another
popular style for the winter, and the
fashion of tucking and
plating these waists is now relieved
by the pretty fashion Of shocking.
Smoked blouses in crepe de chine are
q decided novelty after the seasons Of
tucks. r.

Partisan swirl as you may see by
looking at one of the cuts, lies nat
urally and simply on the head, and
there are no excrescences and abut-
ments in it's makeup, for which let
us be thankful-no superstructures OF
false hair to mar the beautiful SIM
plicity of its contour, although to
achieve it the average woman may
have to resort to the U.s. of switch.
Another point in favor Of the swirl is
that you can't exaggerate it as you can
a Psyche, for if you do you have an
utterly different style of hairdressing.
The French swirl softens the face
and conceals the ears as entirely as
those Of Hawthorne's Donatello. 1t is
not hard to accomplish this new mode.
The first stage consists in x simply
brushing the hair loosely back from
the face and securing it with cord
on the back Of the neck. The hair. if
thick enough. is then divided in half.
If 1t Is not sufficiently abundant
switch will have to be used for the
other half. One half is then twisted

Clothes and the Woman
Points of Feminine Dress That Influence the
Masculine Mind

The woman who wears cheap finery
is innately vulgar and insincere. She
will be bargain counter fiend and
will think it no harm to deceive her
husband about the housekeeping mon
,ey.
The woman who wears heelless shoes
and eschews corsets is a matrimonial
risk, for she is more than likely to de-
velop into a hygienic crank and feed
her family on cereals and make them
drink imitation coffee. Her husband
will have to worship at the shrine Of
all the fads she takes up. She will be
good wife with an ingrowing con-
science and, oh, so very, very wearing.
Beware Of the woman who dresses
beyond her means. This shows she
has more vanity than heart. With
her matrimony is merely a means to
an end, and her ideal of a perfect hus-
band is an animated cash register.
A man does we'll to consider long be-
fore he marries maiden Of the
Burne-Jones type. She will soon be-
gin to realize that the plain business
man she married does not appreciate
her, and she will cherish yearnings to
be understood that are INCOMPATIBLE
with taking a. proper interest. in set-:
ting good dinner before her lord and
master. :, l., ::
If, however, a woman knows how to
dress. If she is smart without being In
ultra style, If she knows how to make
slave Of fashion without fashion
making slave of her-if, in word,
her clothes show that they are neither
a misdirected effort nor an inappro-
pirate ornamentation-t man may
marry without fear. She win be found
to have good judgment, self restraint,
self poise and independence and will
be one Of the women who are COM
fort to their husbands at home and a
source of pride to them abroad

HANGER FOR ONE PIECE GOWN

A clever young matrOn from her own
inner consciousness has evolved such
useful hanger for her one piece
gowns that she has been induced to
pass on her idea for imitation. She
screwed two pieces of doweling, twenty
inches long, together at each end with
screws long enough to hold the Sec
tons at a short distance apart. At
right angles to the center Of the lower
doweling she screwed a third twenty
inch long piece. and to the end Of that
she screwed an inverted old fashioned
hanger from which the hook had been
removed. This hook she screwed into
the upper horizontal piece Of dowelinE.
When hanging up the gowns the
lower part, which curves upward In
stead OF downward as In the ordinary
hanger, is slipped into the shoulders
holding that part of the dress upside
down The skirt, carefully and
smoothly folded, is drawn up between
the two horizontal dowelings. The
sleeves meanwhile are neatly pinned,
to the part Of the dress that Is Kept IN
place by the vertical dowelings.

A NEW Feather cURLER,

Something new Mn the way of dress

trich plumes by hand. It is about the
size Of a large jackknife. The handles
are Of bony coated wood and the
blade OF plated metal. The latter is
shaped so as to fall In with the con-

NH should not judge man by

i n IA as from the top of his hat

:unadorned creature incased in cylin-
drical garments, the advice is probably
good. No one, however, is foolish
enough to advance such theory in
regard to women, for it is a well
known fact that dress makes the wo-
man and by her clothes shall you
know her. Alas, some of the present
day clothes make her a queer creature.
A woman in her toilet expresses her
character and manifests her Whims
and fancies. Her choice Of colors re-
fleets the colors Of her mind and taste,
and the very feathers on her hat show
which way the winds of her fancy
blow. So, girls. remember that the
wise young man before he pops the
fatal question will gain a good many
pointers from the attire Of his lady
love.
OF course the first and most obvious
thing he notices is neatness. The wo-
man who is frowZy in her dress, whose
skirts hike up in the front and dip
blouse never make connection and who
has a general air Of having had her
clothes thrown at her will make a
slovenly housekeeper who will waste
his money and generally lead him an

On the contrary, the woman who
wears trim tailor made things with

perfect assurance that lis house will
be run on schedule time and business
principles. He may, though, find her
a. little narrow and hard, with inflexi-
BILE opinions which are unfortunately
always perfectly correct.
The woman who dresses inappro-
priately-who will put on a chiffon
blouse to go fishing and wear high heel
shoes on the golf links-lacks judg-
ment. She will keep her husband in
hot water because she will be doing
silly things She will dc things on the
spur of the moment. and spend days in
repenting. This kind of a woman is
implusive, affectionate, warm hearted
and delightful as household pet, but
bad working partner. Closely akin
to her is the woman whose, clothes are
pretty in themselves, but not suitable
for her. This is the sort of woman
who buys things because they strike
her fancy without one thought as to
whether they will be- becoming or the
things she needs. She is emotional
carried away by impulse. but lacks
logic, the kind Of woman who would
die for her husband, but who gives
him dyspepsia by her housekeeping
and runs him into debt by her bills.
