The Fall Wedding Veil

THE b~lushing bride of the fall Will

THE blushing bride of the fall will
no longer be able to hide her
timidity behind the friendly shelter of
a tulle or lace wedding veil. We have
done with the symbolism of the yelled
lady, and even the youngest girls go
enancipated to the altar this autumn.
The bonnet" arrangement Of the veil
wedding is the thing this season and is
always worn thrown back from the
face.
The orange wreath continues to be
worn. but 1t Is not really a wreath.
Sometimes 1t Is an aigret of orange
flowers connected by a tiny chain of
buds with a smaller cluster, sometimes
a chain or garland, sometimes q BAN
deau with clusters Of the flowers and
pendent buds over each ear. The hair
Is dressed deliberately, and the garland
may follow the outline of the hair. or
a trellis Of buds like a Juliet cap may
keep the veil in place.
A lucky horseshoe Of lilies may be
carried by the bridesmaid instead Of
the orthodox bouquet. while the bride
may choose a sheaf of Madonna lilies.
The early fall bride who prefers not
to be married in the orthodox wedding
dress may choose a gown Of white
serge. which, worn with a hat trim
med with white ostrich feathers, will
have a simple yet bridal effect that is
very attractive. If the autumn bride
canno afford to spend money on a
very smart trousseau let her be con-
tent with a simple costume of good
material and let her keep her eyes open
for the dainty accessories. which cost
little and go so far in achieving an at
tractive individuality In dress.

BEFORE using q casserole for the

This Is best done by covering it with
cold water, then letting the water come

water until 1t Is cold.
Under no circumstances let the cas-

THE CORSET YOU WILL NEED

BEFORE ordering the fall and winter
wardrobe II Is well to have an au-

has to depend upon the ready made
corset, get the very best model one'a
pocketbook will afford.
And II you do not have your corset
made to order be sure to have the ready
made affair fitted to your figure.
In choosing a corset consider these
points: The bust must be low. the
waist must be natural and not pulled
in. and the hips must be fairly closely
confned-that Is. as far as comfort
Will admit.
There Is a style of corset favored by
the thin woman This comes only a
couple Of inches above the waist line,
leaving the entire upper part Of the
body free. The most of the corset is a
lightly boned affair, which goes over.
the hips, giving them the soft natural
line which Is SO attractive.
The woman with a slightly more do
veloped figure will need a corset which
comes a little higher under the bust,
but which does not support 1t or push

too, must choose a corset with a low
bust. but with 1t she must wear a well
hitting brassiere. which gives her figure
the proper shape and confines it into a
regular line. There is no garment that
improves the appearance of the stout
woman 50 much as the brassiere. and
she should never go without one.
But whether she Is stout or thin she
must not lose sight of the fact that the

UNwIsB INTEHrEnENCE.

No sufficient reason: in fact, no rcn-
son at all, has been advanced for the
passage OF tho bill introduced by
Delegate Cox, by request which would
allow an appeal from tho decisions of
the Building Inspector in Richmond in
cases involving tho condemnation OF
buildings. In the work of that onoo
during the four years of It's existence,
there has been no successful effort to
spector with reference to any structure
condemned by him, although appeals
of this nature have been heard by tho
Board of Public Safety. composed of
the Mayor, the City Engineer and the
Chief OF the Fire Department.. To that
tribunal there has never been shown
adequate reason for upsettlng any
Judgment OF tho Building Inspector. In
tho face of that fact, this attempt IS
made to secure appeals to the Hust-
ings Court, when already proper
mode of appeal Is provided.
IL the pending bill were to become a
law there would DO we'll nigh interim

wait would be especially hazardous In

emergency. They must be RACED In

The building code OF Richmond has
been wisely administered for the good
of the city and tho welfare of its citi-

improperly coniscatory rulings. In at
least one case under the present sys-
tenn such delay was suffered that 1t
proved the danger of long delay by ap-
peal, the structure in This dilatorily
decided case having fallen in before
the case was adjudicated. Those back

tial showing that hardship has been
