1t Is by no means bad thing that
children should every now and then be

No, modern children are not becom-

merely becoming a race OF natural lit
tie human beings. The inevitable
process of evolution is by no means a
matter for unmixed regret. In these
hurrying times even children live fas t.
II their precious moments are spent in
cultivating a thousand pretty primy''
ways something more important will
have to be neglected.
So rest content to let the artificial
manners go and direct your energy to-
ward cultivating that real kindness and
good feeling which are more important
than all the society tricks and phrases

and the fashionable gray hair Paris is
going beyond itself. AS in the time of
Martha Washington the white or gray
haired beauty now rules.
Blends do not adopt the gray wig, or,
at least. those with gray or hazel eyes
do not. The gray hair looks best with
the black or brown eyed heroine and,
as a matter Of fact, only such colorings
in Paris adopt the wig. The wig Is

fads and fabrics to Be Qsed In the fall fashions
Duvetyn Is the New Cloth and the Japanese Bow the
Hccessory Sensation OF the Season

ever such an adjunct can be .ncorpo-
rated in n creation. They are manu-
factured as separate articles, but, as
rule, are part of the coat itself. There
are funny little Elton Jackets made
for the elaborate coat suit, with vests
or waistcoats of fancy silks further
embellshed with smart looking but
tons, often Of real Jewels.
The newest coats, however, are those
with skirts that stand out like those
worn by the premiere danseuse Of the
ballet. Possibly this is a slight exag-
that of wire holding the coat away
from the dress in a very conspicuous
fashion.
From present indications plaids and
checks are to be conspicuous features
Of the fall and winter modes. Entire
frocks are made of large broken plaid
or checked fabrics, some in somber,
other in gay colorings.
Plaid skirts and plain coats are
much in evidence, and a particula rly
stunning creation of this sort was seen
recently of gray and white plaid, with
coat of oyster white cloth. A double
breasted vest of white satin and a belt
VI the clotH were uresSy notes or this
costume.
Altogether clothes were never more
beautiful than they are today, and
there never was time when greater
opportunity has been afforded to beau
ty in the name of fashion. AS long as
woman Is refined she will make the
most of the present modes. usually to
the best advantage, but tho moment
she has a common streak in her it is
bound to crop out in some ordinary
features of her dress. so why blame the
styles? CATHERINE TALBOT.

HAVE you bought your new fall
complexion yet? You had better
get busy. for you won't be able to wear
your last seasons one. as styles in skin
colortngs have changed completely.
says Paris correspondent
In the afternoon women who follow
the modes anoint their faces not with
white " cream powder, but with yell
low paste. which makes them look like
Indians once removed. The skin Is not
red, and it is not yellow either, but a
dark rich color is the result. and, real
ly, after becoming accustomed to 1t,
one grows to find the white face faded

and lifeless. This complexion came to
stay at the Grand Prix. one OF the
great French race meets. where women
wear their newest styles in frocks and
compilations. Since this meet half the
women seen in fashionable attire
wear the yellow skin. 1t is becoming
to both blends and brunettes. though
especially to the latter.
In the evening the saffron is not the
complexion desired, for under arti-
fetal light the color loses its clearness.
SO violet hue Is used. This tint, like
the other. is fascinating. and compli-
ments are returned. for the violet looks
best on the woman Of lightish hair and

and Practical Ideas For the Twentieth Century Housewife
Manners Of the Modern Child

DEOPLE who make 1t their business
to find fault with the rising gen.
Grafton tell us that modern children
have no manners. They are allowed
more freedom than is good for them
and are encouraged to talk openly and
simply before their elders. Their tastes
are consulted and their wishes consid-
cred in a way that must surely be
morally and mentally hurtful to them.
Now. there are two sides to every
question: and in this case there is much
to be said in favor of the abused mod
ern child. 1t is true that he has far
fewer prim little tricks than his grand
father possessed. but 1t does not fol-
low that he is less courteous.
The maligned American child whose
pertness has been skitted in a hundred
comic papers and bewailed in as many
serious tracts Is really not such bad
little person after all. He may be rath-
er forward for his age, but at least he
is simple and fearless. 1t never occurs
to him that he need blush or giggle or
writhe himself into knots when he
meets strangers. He marches through
life with his head up and his shoulders
squared, taking things pretty much as
he finds them and Tending for himself
with large amount of common sense
which Is often disguised by a careless
manner.
The shy. timid, awkward boy of the
past generation compares very unfa-
vorably with this specimen. The mod
ern child is not a nuisance to the adult
who meets him for the first time. II
is not always necessary to make con-
versation for him. You do occasionally
meet one who seems capable of enter
tanning himself in a rational manner
And this state Of greater ease between
children and adults Is largely the re-
suit Of the greater freedom which peo-

skirts ere popular and heavy wooden
materials will be made up in two or
three tiers on a silk foun dalton, so as
not 10 add TO their weight. Many Of
the new skirts are finished with the
selva3e instead of hem, which also
lessons the weight. Indeed. all through
tho style world the Idea is to get away
from anything that suggests bulk and
excess eartorial baggage.
Walking skirts are shorter this fall,
which edict makes the matter of foot
wear even moro important than ever.
Short aud rcnnd lengths are used for
costumes. save very elaborate evening
frocks. When trains are employed they
will be short and narrow. One very
graceful idea in trains is the scarf eff
feet, which may be Topped up over the
arm when the wea"er does not wish it
to dtag.
Coat lengths vary. American tailors
have agreed to make the average coat
on tailored models from thrty-six to
thirty-ei inches long-in fact the
matter of an inch or two either way is
now less important than making the
relative proportions becoming to the
wearer.
OF course the cutaway effects are the
accepted ones. subject to many modi-
fications. For example, the long swal-
lowtail effect in the back is often used
with the cut OF tuxedo front Sleeves
III tailored coats are sewed in at the
long shoulder seam, but the kimono
sleeve in a number of forms is a ia
vorite on dressy models.

written without mention of the vests,
