the most of every good point As a
woman, 1 shall gladly give my sisters
the benefit of all that I have learned
First, 1 shall give you a few rules
and suggestions. Then from the gen
eral, shall proceed to the particular
and draw parallel and some sugges-
tons from the clothes you see pic
tured here.
Simple Rules.
Every woman should dress accord
ing to her height, complexion and fig
ure- In order to do this, be sure that
you have a careful inventory of ex-
actly what your height complexion and
figure are. Before going on your
shopping tour, take one good look in
your truthful mirror.
The mirror pOrtrays facts: be sure
that you do not deceive yourself
about what. you see there. Know your
self and your clothes possibilities If
you are not sure of your own taste
and artistic ability, consult a few faith
ful friends, and never allow yourself
to be flattered by the saleswoman who
has seen you for but a few minutes.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1913-10-05

Tn a multitude of counsel lies wis
dom"-that you know.
The tall woman must avoid long lines
of an exaggerated sort and stripes
even as the short one must refuse to
wear large plaids- If you are in any
way different from the average, don't
emphasize that difference until il
amounts to an abnOrmality.
Harmony is COlOrinG.
The texture and color of your clothes
should sharmonize with your complex
ion For instance. if you have very
high color you will of a surety not
wear white.
A very red face above white gar
ments looks grotesque-Satan masquer-
aiding in the garb of an angel is the I'M
pleasant suggestion of this combina-
ton A pale complexion is empha-
sized by dark material.
Now, if your pallor is your beauty
and you want to bring out your clear
wilderness of skin, wear dark clothes.
But if you are painfully pale, do not
make yourself look like a lean and
hungry Cassius (as your Mr. Shaks-
pere put it, by wearing dark and SOM
Der garments.
Be simple, be neat, study harmony
in cOlOring-and make sure that your
clothes fit you Fit you is an i'm
pOrtant word to emphasize. Have your
clothes fit your figure and have them
fitting for your figure and cOloring.
Now, mesdames, behold some illus
tratiOns of my ideas and theories: In
the center is Figure 1. am wearing
suit that you can develop for the
winter in supple satin broadcloth, with
an inset of biscuit cOlOred cloth at the
bottom of the skirt, for tiny under
sleeves and even for Waistcoat to
give you greater warmth Please no
tice the extremely long line of the sur
plice crossing. This long from should

and svelt The slope of the braid be-
low the hips gives further slender

The postmaster of small town IN Non

were boxes of cigars from the local to-

were packages of knit underwear from

that It would cost US about S250,00O to
cancel the stamps on the parcel post
packages. We believe this cost can be
cut down to $4,000 by the use of ma
chinery and by allowing the use of pre-
cancelled stamps. As it is now, pre-
cancelled stamps are permitted where
mailers send out 1000 or more pack
ages at one mailing We want to fix
it so that almost any person can fur
Their his business, and at the same time
reduce the cost to the government iE
that way
Great for Mail order Houses.
you speak of people sending 1000
packages at one mailing. Have we
many firms that do that?"
Yes The great mail order houses
send out many times that and there
are small institutions that have a heavy
parcel post daily mail. The largest
number of packages sent out so
far in any one day by a single
est amount of postage used by
any one company in a day for the par
eel post service was S614S."
THAT sum was paid by one Of the
large mail order houses" continued the
postmaster general The mail order
houses were prepared for the parcel
post at the time it was inaugurated. and
they have adopted it in their business
in marvellous manner The other day
1 took down a statement from the agent
of one of these firms as to its business
during the first seven months of 1913.
In that time it sent out almost $780,
900 parcel post packages.
These houses are doing so much
that we have tried to facilitate their
parcel post mail in every possible way.
We have put a corps of clerks in GER
tain establishments of that kind, and
the packages go almost direct to the
consumer. being largely distributed be-
fore they are sent to the trains. Our
men show them how to handle the pack
ages, and how the wrapping should
be done. in this way they have proved
of great value to the mail order es-
