1t is a good plan to set apart a day

To clean the bathroom thoroughly first
brush down walls and ceiling with a rag

the wal with hot water and good,
strong soap, using borax or ammonia as
softener, as preferred. If the use of
ammonia makes the hands feel dry. then
it is very evident it disagrees with the

and wash the shelves. See that they are
dry before the contents are returned.

its plainness, a novel sash is inserted
at the front and drawn toward the rear,
where 1T is loosely knotted. The un-
usual cuffs are ornamented with blue
and beige striped duvetyfN, which also
forms a quaint-looking collar. Bands of
skunk give look Of warmth to the suit.
The skirt is designed with three tiers,
which depend in graceful folds around
the figure. Tapping toward the left
front, the uppermost 1ounce is decorated
with buttons that reflect the beige and
blue of the trimmings.
Sometimes smart costumes cut on SIM
liar lines have quite elaborate trimmings
on the f1ounces. One interesting model
which had the opening at the left side
was decorated with a beautiful motif
wrought with silver thread and small jet
beads. The design was suggested by
some of the rare church embroideries
that are elaborated on altar cloths and
other ecclesiastical vestments, for the
present Ideas in decoration are borrowed
from everywhere.
A very lovely evening gown of ex-
quisite fiesh-colored charmeuse yelled in
chiffon, worn by a charming debutante
was beautifully trimmed with rose-like
trimmings of small beads. These, how
ever, were rather unusual In style, as
they had certain waxlike softness and
| were about the size OF the seeds Of the
pomegranate.
AhotheT very charming gown showed
still another of the novelties of the sea-
son. The foundation was. rich shim-
mering white charmeuse, whose exquisite
texture proved a fine background for the
/ beautiful pannier of gold tulle that was
prettily draped on the skirt. AS IL to
emphasize the warm color of this new
yelling, a narrow band of sable edged
the small fiounce that was cleverly COM
bined with the draperies. The fiounce,
however, was caught up at the sides by
spray of small metallic roses that
reached almost to the girdle.
Some very interesting gowns trimmed
with yellow fox are also favored for
certain events of the social season This
| color is frequently seen in the handsome
! brocaded chiffons that are the delight
OF many smartly dressed woman. How
ever. IT is well to consider ones hair
and complexion before adopting any of
| the yellow shades, for. while they are
| exceedingly effective when worn by the
right woman, the result Is equally dis
astrous when adopted by the wrong
| woman.
reds offer safer field for the woman
who prefers some gayety In her dress
! rather than the safe but somber black.
/ And this season. let me tell you. even
black loses its sad tone. for not only are
J the loveliest black velvet gowns trimmed
with dainty laces at the throat and
wrists, but touch of wonderful bright
ness is given by the addition Of gayly
colored plaid sashes.
| The black evening gown too frequently
reveals dash OF bright color on the
corsage. 1t may be in the bright petals
of The flower that gariands the shoulder.
or il may be in the rich velvet or ribbon
! that swathes the lower part of the cor
sage. Occasionally a tracery of silver
and gold may adorn the handsome dra-
| peries, or even jewelled gtrdle In bar
| barrie style may prove foil to the
sable tone of the black gown.

AMERICAN FASHIONS.
BY LILLIAN E. YOUNG.

Now that decided color contrasts in
one costume are the order of the day,
we turn with renewed interest to the use
Of black and white No other combi-
nation of contrasts could be more de-
cided nor more effective, providing it is
used with discrimination. In combining
black and white it is possible to create
bizarre and even startling results and it
takes judicious thought and planning to
maintain conservatism.
Embroidery has wonderfully soften
ing influence on black and white designs.
1t will act effectually as a medium in
merging the two.
The design here sketched illustrates
this point nicely. wherein the white
tunic Is saved from a too abrupt con-
tact with the black silk skirt by a

neck is filled in with a section Of the
embroidery design.
Although the lower portion of the
blouse looks complicated, it Is quite easily
made. 1t is just as If the tail of the
blouse hung out over the skirt like a
MILDLY blouse with it's end rolled up all
around The front is slashed down the
center from the point that ends the V
neck; then. by gathering either side up
at this point with some small draped
folds the Vshaped parting below the
bust Is achieved.
The effect is practically duplicated in
the back. except that the deep black
satin girdle is tied in a fiat bow across
the opening at the waist. A band of
fur runs diagonally across the front and
back. outlining the upper part of the left
side and the lower part of the right.
The short tunic is rather full and is
left open at the center front. 1t rounds
down longer in back and is edged with
fur.
The black charmeuse skirt opens down
the left side, where the draping is laid
in folds under the belt.

will be best to introduce it In the girdle.

Now that the shorter days of winter
are with Us, We find that there is less
excitement as TO the new modes. For
instead of contemplating them and dis
cussing their varied merits, the fash
ionable woman must perforce wear them.
One feature of the season is that there
IS an unlimited choice of dress for every
occasion. and many very beautiful styles
are shown.
The model pictured today shows one
of the most attractive creations pro-
duced for winter wear. 1t is designed
In marine velours de laine. The coat

A prune pudding, with foundation OF

pour over 1t sauce made of two stiff1y
whipped whites Of eggs and half q cupful
Of cream. also whipped to q froth
Sweeten this sauce with a quarter of a
cupful of sifted powdered sugar.
A good foundation for this pudding is
the following jelly: To every two large
tablespoonfuls of gelatin, soaked, add half
Il cup of sugar, two cups of boiling water
and two lemons. The rind, as well as the
juice. should be used and when cool 1t
should be strained. For most foundation
jellies 1t need not be quite so acid In
flavor but i'm this matter the housewife
should follow her own tastes. This rule
makes an excellent foundation for a
tuttf-frutti of nuts and fruit and any
fancy jelly. Jellies made with gelatin al
ways harden quickly If placed in a pan
and cracked ice or snow banked tightly
around them. They should also be close
1y covered. All housekeepers do not know
that gelatin, when turned into jelly, at
tracts germs of every variety II left ex-
posed to the air. 1t is always better. tor
