A FASHIONABLE FROCK OF
PLAID WOOL AND VELVET.
BY MAY MANTON.

Kimono sleeves are essentially be-
coming to girls and to small women
and they retain all their favor. This
dress shows them in one Of the new
est blouses with a big sailor collar.
The material is plaid wool and the
trimming is velvet and the combina-
ton as well as the style of the gar-
ment is exceedingly smart. In this
case a collarless shield is worn with
the blouse, but the shield can be
omitted if a lower neck Is wanted, or
it can be finished with a stock collar
if a higher finish is preferred. Also
the sleeves can be made in elbow
quarter length illustrated. The skirt
consists of just two pieces Tapped onto
panels. The whole frock is so simple
that a schoolgirl need not hesitate to
undertake its making, yet it includes
the most distinctive features of the
season. The blouse is all in one piece,
closed at the front and laced for a
portion of its length to give a pretty
suggestion of the sailor idea. The
model will be found a good one for
i'dAS otiACi ~ LIE lnt Didld
and the velvet are exceedingly smart,
and in every way desirable, but there
are numberless others that could be
utilized. Plain b~roadcloth with the veil
vet would be beautiful or corduroy
with broadcloth as trimming would be
smart. Also 1t may be well to suggest
that the same model would be charm
ing for linen, pique and materials Of
the kind. For the trimming can be
used a contrasting color, or plain ma
terial can be combined with striped or
checked. Coral red will be exceedingly
smart throughout the late winter and
the coming season, and is charming
with white.
For the 16-year size the blouse will
require 2Ss yards of material 81, 1%

A Few Hints on How to Pre-.
serve Beauty This Winter
Weather.

At this time of year it is expedient
to guard the skin with the utmost care.
During midwinter the complexion is
apt to get a setback from which it will
suffer during the rest of the year.
Jack Frost paints satiny cheeks a
vivid rose color and brightens the eyes
until they twinkle and low in a most
fetching way. Unfortunately, he does
not stop there. He is responsible, too,
for chapped lips, enlarged pores and a
host of beauty ills.
1t Is not to be wondered t that ones
skin becomes coarse, red and rough, If
M literally courts disaster by sallying
out into the wintry breezes without
Dreaming the face and preparing 1t for
it's contact with the icy atmosphere.
Before going out in the winter milady
should go over her pretty face with
cold cream, rubbing it thoroughly into
the pores Of the skin. Then she should
wipe off h surplus ortam. An oily
skin is not to be tolerated for q single
minute.
Next the maid or matron who is
bent upon preserving her Strawberries
and-cream complexion from the bad in
iuence of the cold air, seizes a powder
puff and whisks II over the face until
the skin Is concealed from view be-

Boys Kiss Girls

MT. HOLLY. Jan. 22.-Chaperones
~patronesses and guardians are begin
ming to feel the necessity of elimi-
mating the delightful and picturesque
moonlight waltz that has leaped into
favor among the young dancers, recent
developments having shown that en-
tirely too much %spooning set to music

wrinkle.
The main feature is the e%Xtinguish-
ing of all lights in the hall and the
substitution of a big electric ''moon'
that sheds just enough light to prevent
a collision among the dancers, but it
now appears that in the period of sub
dued illumination some of the young

A Harmless Remedy, Made from
Garden Sage, Restores Color
TO Gray Hair.

A feeling of sadness accompanies the
discovery CT the first gray hairs, which
unfortunately are looked upon as Ter
aids of advancing age. Gray hair,
however handsome it may be, makes
a person look old. We all know the
advantages of being young. Aside from
the good impression a youthful APP
pearance makes on others. simply
knowing that you L looking tit"
gives one courage to undertake and
accomplish things. So why suffer the
handicap of looking old on account of
gray hairs, when a simple remedy will
give your hair a youthful color and
beauty in a few days time?
Most people know that common gar
den sage acts as a color restorer and
scalp tonic as well. Our grandmothers
used a Sage Tea" for keeping their
hair dark. soft and luxuriant. In
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy we nave an ideal preparation of
Sage, combined with Sulphur and other
valuable remedies for dandruff, itching
scalp and thin, weak hair that is split
at the ends or constantly coming out.
A few applications OF this valuable
remedy will bring back the color, and
In a short time it will remove every
trace of dandruff and greatly improve
the growth and appearance of the hair.
Get a fifty cent bottle from your
druggist today and notice the differ
ence in you hair after a few days
treatment. All druggists sell it, under
guarantee that the money will be re-
funded II the remedy is NOT exactly

ately in the second bowl. Be ure not
to let the material stay in the javelle
water longer than a couple of seconds

the fabric may be attacked by the acid.
Have you tried hanging the coat out
in the air? 1t seems 10 me the wrinkles
will come out with a couple of days OF
this treatment. II it does not have
the desired effect try steaming 1t. Place
a damp cloth over a hot iron and hold
the skin, wrong side, of course, tightly
over n iron. You can do this without
ripping the lining, but l cannot guar
antee that the steam will not leave a
faint water stain. If you want to be
on the safe side rip the lining.
Rip the lining al the bottom Of the
coat and sew weights between the skin
and the lining. This will prevent 1t
from turning up.

MEMS HATS VERSUS WOMEN'S

I J the weghty hat upon them; 1t makes their hair one out" gives
them headaches and is responsible for III sorts of other evils.
But, a 9 a matter of fact 1t has been proved by actual weighing that the
heaviest silk hat is lighter than nostofth the hats worn by women.
An ordinary mans silk hat weighs about seven ounces, a derby from
four and a half to five and a half ounces
Whereas, a womans fur toque, even n sable-the hghtest fur-weghs
about mine ounces. A big beaver hr would weigh about twelve unoes and
a. large velvet N anything up to a pound.
And when we come to add to the weigh Oh a womans headgear ths xNa
weight of combs, pins. pads etc, With which burden her head, IL be-
comes a matter for wonder that h can carry It all.
By the way, they say that the big hats that have been fashionable fr %
long Ia a tendency to max a woman round -shoudered.
A woman wearing on of these chapeaux cannot sit upright in a car or
taxEab. She has to lean forward. And If the hat Is a all heavy they say
the weight of It makes her droop her head, and sag a little In the aok a.
she walks.
This may If may 10Y be quite true There have been warnings" in the
newspapers against wearing big hats But the fact that the big hat Is mn
doubleday a nuisance to other people may have something to 10 with that.
