EMBROIDERIES In
RUSSIAN DESIGNS

All sorts of embroideries in various
colorings are used to ornament dresses
for winter afternoon and evening wear.
One of the favorite embroideries of the
moment is a Russian design worked on
net The colorings include blue and red,
the red being the predominating tone.
In a dress OF this embroidery the lower
part is Of white charmsuse, and the up
pc part, which includes tunicNand bodice.
is in white ninon. The embroidery on
net is inset around the waist, running
up on the bodice in a pointed effect to
meet a collarless yoke Of the material
sewn with white beads.
Another favorite embroidery for dresses
is floss silk worked in floral sprays in
combination with beads, the beads either
being in the same color or in contrasting
tones. To relieve the monotony OF the
all-white dress, beads in blue and pink
are introduced in white floss. SILK en-
broideries and touches OF satin in the
same tones are discreetly introduced in
the trimming scheme. Wool embrolderies
will also be much used during the win
ter. The designs are boldly executed
and the colorings are in various blends.

HOW TCTAKE CARE
OF BLACK CLOTHES
They Need as Much Atten,
tiOn as COlOrs.

The possession of a black garment is
to some a solace that 1t does not re-
quire the same amount OF cleaning that
cloths Of different shades would call for.
1t is a mistake to think that a black
same attention as any other, for though
the dust and soil does not appear to the
eye IT is lodged there Just the same, and
should be eradicated as regularly as
though the dust showed. A good cleanser
can be made by boiling weak coffee until
the odor is all gone and then using Il
on the garment as though 1t was Deing
given its original sponging.
All spots should be taken out before
this operation with u reliable cleanser,
and as TO the number OF spots a dark
cloth will acquire you will be surprised
upon making a close inspection. They
will all pop out to your gaze II you look
over the article OF apparel after It has
been given a good brushing in prepar-
ing for the sponging operation, which is
intended to supply a new health and
vigor that will give the garment an Rp-
pearance OF brand-newness.
should BE Pulled Into shape.
After any article is thus cleaned IL
should be pulled into shape so that the
pressing will be a task altogether easy
OF accomplishment. The shaping process
can be attended to several times during
the time that It takes to dry. All hens
should be patted so that the moisture will
evaporate easier. The seams should be
given a rebate basting before dampened.
so that the crinkling thereabout will be
OF little or no consideration. This work
ought not to be so very tedious with the
garments of later date that show SO few
cores.
The same attention can be given TO
hubby's black clothes and the renovating
will actually repay one In the length of
time that this renovating will allow the
suit TO be worn, whereas II the attention
