Sagging or Hanging
Cheeks and Chin
(From Woman's Magazine)

F'labbiness or cheeks, chin or neck
has been considered very difficult to
correct, until the recent discovery Of
a veritable wonder worker for such
conditions. The preparation is so sim
pie and harmless any woman can easily
make and apply IL 1t is all the more
remarkable in that its beneficial effects
are apparent even after the first appli-
cation, both as to appearances and the
feeling OF comfort produced.
The formula is: Powdered saxolite,
/ or, dissolved in / pit. witch hazel
Use daily as wash lotion. The solu-
ton tends to contract and solidify the
looseped, baggy tissue, smoothing out
the folds, creases and wrinkles, be-
sides having refining influence on
skin Of coarse texture and large pores.
AS witch hazel and saxolite can be had
at sny drugstore at little cost. many
viii doubtless be glad to have this sue
cessful recipe.

Braids as Trimming.

@OLORED braid, giving the note OF
- contrast to the costume it adorns
becomes extremely fascinating in the
way 1t is now used for smart and up
to-date. wearing. Often it is rather mar
row, and the design it follows conven-
tional. with square effects. Handsome
wide braids are also to be used exten-
sively, both in solid black and in colors
combined with black. Large braid and
cord ornaments and frogs will be much
used in trimming semi-tailored suits.
Cord and fancy braid girdles are al
ready seen in large numbers. In addi-
ton to the all-black braids the new de-
signs include combinations Of white and
such bright colors as emerald green, old
gold, purple, royal blue and coronation
red with black. Among the novelties in
colored braids are the ombre effects. In
which two tones of one color are COM
bined: for instance, a copenhagen blue
with navy, or tan with brown, etc, as
well as the new effects showing the
color mixtures that are prevalent in the
fall suitings, in which the grays, tans
and grayish green's predominate- They
make very effective trimmings when
matched with materials of harmonizing
brown braid when placed on light
brown with tan streaks produces COM
bination that Is. most effective.
There are beautiful braids In astrakhan
and chenille effects in black and col
ors A soft, rich effect is obtained from
chenille. and 1t is appropriate for use
on silk or wool. Silk braids will doubt
less be used quite largely on coats, jack
cts and skirts, and beautiful new de-
sisns In this material are to be seen.
Widths of about one inch will be popu-
lar. but they are to be had in the va
rious numbers up to about four or fve
inches OF course, all of these are TO
be found In the plain colors. but the
two-color combinations are quite prom
inent, and they lend valuable sugges-
tions to the woman who wishes to buy
a simple trimming for her tailored gar
ment.
The closeness of weave in braids Is
one of the newest features, which will
be welcome, as 1t tends to greater dura-
bility and will no. catch into things. as
the larger, looser weaves are apt to do,

braids play an important part In tai
lored fashions this season and often All
three sorts of trimming are loaded on
the same suit.
A coat and skirt of dark red serge IL
illustrates this extravagant use of braid
and buttons. The entire surface OF the
coat and skirt is covered with soutache
braiding in straight rows. alternating
with the loop effect SO fashionable just
now. One sort Of braiding crosses an
other at the foot of the skirt and on the
lower edge Of the coat. Many more but
tons than are really necessary are also
used on this coat, rows OF these crochet

the cuff and on the collar and rever. This
suit has a coat which Is slightly longer
