would delegate it entirely to others,

all. of that sixth sense which tells when
thing is out of place.
She must learn that there are some
sins in dress that never are forgiven.
The black long glove under the white
long sleeve Is one of these, and the
patent leather belt on the lingerie dress.
That latter sounds impossible. but it has
been seen.

evidently had just attained the time

where absolutely nothing was required,

she wore a large bow of bright purple
velvet fastened by a jet pin. She did
not look like woman without renne-
ment or taste; she reminded me of an
other victim of lack of discernment,
who always wore a purple silk petit
coat under her mourning. She simply
did not know any better.
A short suit coat with a cloth skirt or
another color is another awful warning;
so are the neck chain over the gold
pinned jabot and the bracelet over the
long glove. Then there are the ribbon

THE SECRET OF DRESS

YOMEN often ask what makes

the same material and the same general
cut yet lacks that elusive touch that
marks the well-made costume. The
secret is in simplicity.
Given a gown well cut and OF good
material and color. there is no reason
why the smart effect should be lacking;
but cover this gown with all sorts OF
trimmings and color contrasts and gro
tesoue arrangements. and you present
only an overdressed and unesthetic ap-
pearance- Trim your clothes as little as
possible, keep them so far as. you can
