VeIvet In v

There seems to be little doubt con.
corning the employment of much vel
vet for evening gowns and afternoon
and street dresses, Judging from the
quantity seen In early lines. says the
Dry Goods Economist. The chiffon,
embossed and silk varieties are used
for whole evening dresses, or a large
proportion Of the gowns with brocade
or chiffon combination. Velveteens,
corduroy and printed styles appear In
the models Of more simple construc.
ton. For trimming purposes there
seems to be no limit to the uses OF
this material, and chenille embroid'
cries and fringes are brought out to
finish the garments in h%armonizinG
effects.

needs no ironing, only a careful
smoothing and stretching with the
hands, 1t will appeal to the woman
who is travelling and to the boarding
girl, to whom the summer laundry Is
a puzzling item. 1t Is doubtful II the
crepe skirt will become such a favorite.
since most women will cling to the
smoothly ironed skirt. but for the
above-named articles 1t certainly will
be most satisfactory.

A good deal OF harm Is done the

strain on the eyes is kept up In any

will be crowsfeet, a bad forehead

is bound to suffer much during youth
with granulations. II a girl has to
study at night, her reading lamp should
be placed so that the light will fall
over her left shoulder, with the shade
in q deep green and low enough to
hide the blaze Of the lamp. Then
