BUSINESS ETIQUETTE

For the benefit of some of Marble s
business men who never lived in town
before-we make the following quiet
suggestions:
OF course you are not supposed to
know that it is town etiquette to ad
vcrtise a little, at least, in your local
papers.
1t is all right to advertise your pork
chops and turkeys ON the motion PIC
ture canvas but, it is a poor place to
advertise the resources of your town
and country to the outside and invest
ing world. 1t is a very, undesirable
place to record nice stories of your
family births, marriages and deaths.
We have no recollection of ever seeing
nicely written things about social hap
penings, balls and dances with tho
names of participants or the color, fit
and styles of their costumes or gowns
thrown on the canvas. Therefore,
It is only eustomar- for people NOV
ing into town and startin' in bisnegs
to divide their advertising with The
local papers.-Marble Age.

The Silk Jersey Bids for Popularity

EVIDENTLY we are to have a sar-
torial sensation ach year. First
1t was the sheath skirt, then the peach
basket hat; now the silk jersey.
1t, like the other sensations. is a re-
vival not a creation. Whether or not
it will become popular one cannot tell.
Daring the last period of it's popularity
it was worn by everyone. 1t became
the most comfortable garment of the
day.
1t was made in white, also in black,
but there were many coIors in between.
Gray was a favorite; so was brown.
The majority of these jerseys did not
fasten with buttons or hooks and eyes.
They slipped over the head like a boys
sweater and fitted into the figure.
The modern one buttons down the
front, the back or the fside. Some Of
them are beaded, many are embroid-
cred.
They are worn over plated skirts of
soft thin fabric. 1t may be that they
will take the place of the everyday
blouse. They are excellent to wear UNI
der top-coats and long fur jackets, both
of which will ne in fashion this winter.

One thing is true about these Jerseys

BW the gowns that have been worn
did not demand good shoulders and a
full chest; the jersey does. There is
little that art can do that a right-ft-
ting jersey won't reveal, and this fact
should make a woman careful about
wearing one.
This garment called a jersey waist is
more appropriate with short skirts than
with long ones. 1t is really an informal
piece of clothing. 1t will prove admir-
able for walking, for shopping and for
house wear. 1t is much better to veal

Dear Margery Doom:
What is the best and simplest way
to shampoo the hair with egg? Are
the ready made preparations good? or
are the raw eggs better?
INQUIRER.
The ready-made egg shampoos' may
be very good. but they cannot APP
proach the raw egg variety. Use the
egg with warm water. Beat the yolk
of an egg first, then gradually add to
it a pint of arm (not b~oillng) water;
wet the head and hair and then pour
the mixture on or have some one do
this, using both hands to rub it in.
