SILK COATS IN SUMMER

satin as a fabric for smart dresses and

tone as the dress itself or in a contrast
ing color very often darker, although
often finding an echo in the trimming of
the gown.
Black, of course. is the staple color.
Coats Of black tafeta or satin car be
worn over any color and always look
well. When trimmed with black and
white, either striped silk or the many
lovely embroidered trimmings, they are
extremely smart. A large collar and deep
cuffs of white lace ON n black coat give
the necessary contrast, and is quite cor
rectly worn by all ages of womankind.
White satin and white taffeta short
coats, self-trimmed. embroidered or
trimmed with heavy ratine lace, promise
to have a summer vogue. and win not
only be worn over white, but over coll
ored and striped or figured frocks as
well.
Parisiennes are wearing chic little cos
tunes in bIack-and-w white or colored
striped material, and a little slipon
coatee of white, whose Nbig collars and
cuffs are faced with the striped silk.
Often the revers are likewise faced.
Pleated frills of embroidered batiste
and shadow lace will be worn with these
little coats, and l must say they lend a
charm that is impossible to obtain in
any other way.

Doctor Tells How to
Shed Bad COMPLEXION

We cannot restore degenerated facial
tissue any more than. we can restore a
lost limb. 1t Is useless to attempt to
convert a worn out complexion into a
new one. The rational procedure is to
remove the complexion lnstend-remove
the devitallzed cuticle. Not by surRi-
cal means, however, as te underlying
cults is too thin, too tender, to with
stand immediate exposure. Applying
ordinary mercolized wax will gradually
absorb the offending cuticle. BY de-
grees, a new, youthful skin appears; a
skin soft and delicately tinted as a rose
petal.
No lady need hesitate to try this. Pro-
cure an ounce of mercolized wax of the
druggist. Spread on a thin layer before
retiring, removing this in the morning
with soap and water. Ia from one to
two weeks the complexion is completely
transformed.
An approved treatment for wrinkles is
provided by dissolying an ounce of
powered saxolite in a hall. pint witch

Handwriting and Punctuation
Dear Miss Doom:

1t could be better, for l cannot write

FOUR handwriting is excellent. If
these are examples of the lines you com
plain you cannot keep straight you have
not the slightest cause for worry, as
they could scarcely be any better II they
we're ruled.
In punctuation you make the mistake
common to those who are over-careful,
that of putting In a too generous supply
of commas. In the first sentence there
should be no punctuation except at the
end of the sentence. This also holds
good In the second Ind last sentences.
After you have learned the general rules
be guided by the sense. In your letter
you nave made the mistake of separating
by commas parts Of sentences in the
sense OF which there Is no separation.
In the first sentence you desire my opin.

closely connected that If the latter part
Of the sentence were omitted the mean

should you separate the two parts? In
the second sentence the same word is
the subject of both actions. You are
applying to it the rule that compound
predicates not connected by '.and" should
be separated by commas. In the last
sentence you nave separated from a
predicate a subject whose length offers
no excuse for the separation.
The tone Of your letter indicates that
you are thoughtful, earnest and persever-
ing. These qualities will take you a
great way on the road to success.

MRS. L. R,
1t depends upon the stain and
upon the color of the material. If
the material is white you can prob
ably remove the stain by boiling the
dress for quite a while. placing 1t in
the sun and keeping the stained por-
ton wet for at least half a day. If
this does not have the satisfactory
results try javelle water.
Place side by side two vessels. the
first of which contains javelle water,
the second clear water to which a
few drops of ammonia have been
added. Dip the dress in the javelle
water, remove 1t quickly and rinse
1t thoroughly In the ammonia water.
Then hang 1t In the air to dry. Be
sure that all this is done very quick
ly, as If the garment is left in the
javelle water for any length of time,
and If 1t Is not rinsed quickly and
thoroughly the fabric will be af-
fected.
