Paint Tabooed;

"A few years g only one class of
women painted their faces says Dol
Ily Madison in Chicago News. ut was
a sign OF social ostracism and was
tabooed in refined circles. The GUS
tom has become so universal we must
admit it is to be deplored and to be
shelved as soon as possible
How foolish to seek artificial
beauty Of this sort, obnoxious from
artistic and moral standpoints, when it
is so easy to obtain a truly natural
complexion by the use of ordinary
mercolized wax. Mercolized wax, OBJ
tainable at any drug store, is so eff
~fective, non-injurious inexpensive
no one need think of using anything
else for the purpose. Applied like
cold cream at night and washed off
in the morning it at once begins to
show its remarkable ~rejuvenating ef-

surface skin in tiny particles, show-
ing the fresher, ~livelier. beautiful un-
dersian. Naturally 1t takes with II all

BOTTLED TOMATOES.

Choose ripe, w~ell-colored tomatoes, as
even in size as possible, and dip each
into boiling water for a minute to ia
cilitate the peeling; drain well. allow
ing as much of their own water to es-
cape as possible with the scalding
water, but do not press them at all.
Now put them in an enamel pan, bring
them steadily to the boil, stirring them
gently with a wooden spoon and taking
care not to break them, and allow
them to boil steadily and untouched
for about twelve minutes; then pour
them boiling into wide-mouthed bottles
previously scalded in boiling water and
drained, being careful to fill the bot
ties till the juice runs right over; then
wipe the necks Of the bottles very
quickly and screw on the tops, screw
ing these tighter as the contents cool.
When cold, wipe the bottles well, test
them to see If they are alright, then
store in a cool, dry. dark place.

DRAPERY IN VOGUE.

One noticeable feature Of fall styles
is the use of drapery, especially on
afternoon and evening gowns. The
long silk dress for afternoon has Its
overskirt draped over an underpiece.
The lines are graceful, sweeping and
lend much to the attractiveness of the
whole.
Undoubtedly the vogue for draped
bodices Is at its height. The folds OF
the blouse are laid IN pleats and draped
over the shoulders in fichu line, caught
at the front in various ways.
Separate flchus of net or lace are
draped over plain frocks and basted or
pinned in place. There is a knack in
folding the soft goods, acquired by
practise IL 1t be not natural.
Sleeves are draped over the tops OF
the arms on many evening gowns,
edged with fringe. Sashes are draped
in all kinds of ways around the waist.
The ends are disposed of gracefully in
curved lines. adding to the decoration
of the gown.
For evening gowns the lace 30 much
in G is draped in curves or gar
lands around the bottom of the skirt.
Ruffles are draped and wreaths OF roses
are entwined among ths lace.
In evening cloaks the main decora-
ton is drapery. Ends are draped into
hoods and scarfs. Cords are draped
over the front and shoulders in mill
tary fashion.
Hats show high, draped crowns of
velvet or silk over frames. Indeed, the
apt fingers of the dressmaker and mil
liner will be put to a severe test this
season, for draping will bs the dom
inant note in trimming.
