Subtleties of Color

REATER efforts are now being
r'made by the young English girl
to dress more carefully, and al
ready the study Of color has borne its
fruit in her improved appearance.
She has decided that the old ideas, on
color are passe; that to narrow down
the wearing of blue TO the blonde is
erroneous; that black is not neces-
sarily reserved for the aged, nor white,
preserved for the very young. She
has decided on a more subtle code, and
she AYERS that the battling array of
violet colorings is alone a study worthy,
of an artist
She has arrived at the truth of the
theory of repeating the color of the
eyes. She knows that Natter, SAKE.
Wedgwood-an the softened editions
of azure-enhance blue eyes. With
brown the same principle holds good.
When, as frequently happens, in the
iris of the hazel eye both green and
brown are plainly visible, the choice
must be ruled by complexion; either
may suit, but the chosen color will. to
the casual observer, probably decide
whether the eyes are green or brown.
Landscape painters know that unless
they introduce. their sky tints into the

which is not In question. but out OF the

For seashore or general summer wear
sheer linens are as good and quite as
correct for the washable guimpe as are
eyelet embroideries.
Black-dotted net is newer than the
square filet weave for the yoke and
sleeves of the all-black gown: and the
best qualities of very fine net are so
firm as to require no lining of chiffon
to bring added warmth.
Embroidered dots Of cotton or linen
floss will bring the dress color up to the
yoke of plain white or ecru net.
Metallic laces and insertions and

Norfolk Jackets

Hand-Ru Lace

AYET laces run by hand are in very
M good style. and they may be cop

pattern by using some simply designed
lace and darning in the cotton, linen or
silk floss upon the net. as nearly like
the original as possible.
Also there is a way to make your own
lace patterns. Any old piece of lace
spread out upon sheet OF manila pa
per may be successfully traced by the
aid of pencil or tracing wheel, or by lay
Ing between the two a sheet of carbon
paper and tnen carefully defining the

Over this paper pattern the net or wide
