ABOUT ODD BODICES
STILL AN IMPORTANT ADJUNCT

Thin Stun tho FavorIte Material for

Of the Garments.

Though by no means occupying the
first place of interest. the odd bodice
is still very important adjunct to
conertable wardrobe. 1t Is absolute
ly required for the street suit of coat
and skirt. and fashion requires that
the smart bodice match the gown
material in color and be made with
the utmost care.
White waists are plentiful. materials
in these ranging from the coarsest lin
en- to the most diaphanous nets, laces
and gauzes. yet even these charming
garments fail in the elegance that the
gown-colored waist will give. Thin
stuffs are the favorites for this waist.

For the jumper portion of such bod.

and when 1t is made OF a fine lace or
guipure. or Of tinseled gauze. 1t is pos
sible to vary the effect by having sew
eral underbodices, in various colors,
for change. Remnants of material
suitable for the jumper decking are
now sold In all the shops at low
prices.

Avery decided feature with the new
waists on shirtwaist lines is the hori

with bands of lace or embroidery be-

replace the yoke effects to a great
degree. and as they induce the slim
look still required for all raiment

great vogue.

astonishment. Then the cotillon be-

most costly of these were the French
parasols presented to the women.
They had been made to order and
were hand carved upon the finest Of

work. The Gardenia boutonnieres
given the men were artificial, but they
were perfumed in a manner to put ma

A specialist who had had success
with treating falling hair had novel
ideas on shampos that are easily
adopted by the girl who washes her
own hair.
Make a strong lather OF soap suds
by putting cake of pure white soap
in pitcher that holds a couple of
quarts. Pour pint Of boiling water
over the soap and shake until thick
lather is formed, when the soap Is re-
moved.
Let the mixture cool to blood heat,
or so that it will not scald the skin.
and pour little at time over the
scalp. rubbing 1t In with the tips of
the fingers.
When scalp is well cleansed. pour
the rest Of hot mixture over the long
hair. washing 1t gently down from the
roots toward the ends.
Rinse with warm water, using
bath spray. and keep 1t up until no
soap suds remain. either on scalp or
long heir. Part hair and spray scalp.
