warm cream with the advent of rich red, notably the wine shades. The woman who undoubtedly be longs to the ''between-color'' type, pos sessing a good complexion and eyes and shade, except those having a, tint of green in them, may wear with suc- cess black, cream, n1ilk-white pure white, pale pinks, pale and dark greens, blues from pale to navy, though Copenhagen, slate, and genuine blues to navy, old rose, silver and blue grays mauve, he1iotrope, wistaria lavender, golden browns, and wine reds But there are variations of the be- tween-co1or type. Sometimes one fs akin to the ash blonde-that is, the hair will be very much the same shade but will lack the clear tint found in the tresseS of this type When the hair is this tone and the eyes are brown, the skin clear ana slightly tinged with pink, the colors that suit the fair brunette are apt to be very becoming.
 When, however, the f1air, although, light brown, is tinged with gold, or inclined toward chestnut, then this type may often choose among the col ors becoming to the blonde.
 When the eyes are blue, gray, or gray-green, turquoise and the greeny blues will be especially becoming. Green, both emerald and olive, may
 
 lemon, rich chestnut brown in a, deep CT tint than the hair and a very deep crimson. But, as I said before, if there is g, trace of sal1owness, green must be avoided. Browns, too, must be approached cautiously.
 A most important point to be borne in mind by the woman of between col ors is that all such neutral tones as pale tans, mode, faun, and putty color must be re1igious1y avoided if she would look her best. These colors are too near to the shade of the hair to be a success. In fact, they neither harmonize nor contrast.
 What is known as the pastel shades are wonderfully becoming to the be- tween-coIor type. Taupe, worn so much of late, may be a success if a rich, deep, warm tone is chosen and a relief is given about the throat with creamy lace and a touch of coral or light blue, baby or turquoise, depend ing upon the color of the eyes. If the eyes are brown or blue, coral and baby blue may be chosen. If there is a. touch of green in the eyes then turquoise will be happier choice.
 Taupe is not a safe color to use alone unless the wearer has plenty Of color.
 A word in regard to the eyebrowns of the between-co1or type. Quite ire quently they are pale in color, also thin. When this happens the appear ance may be very much improved by using a pencil to darl<en the shade This must be carefully done, of course, but a slight shading will often change a face from insipidity to actual pretti- ness. providing just the character needed.

does a man ever marry a young wOm- an whose acquaintance he has made without an introduction or course if they have met under extenuattng tual interest having brought them in contact that is quite a different mat ter and another story.
 It is the girls who deliberately hirt that this bit of advice is intended for. If the girls just knew what men think of such conduct they would be wiser and more ctrcumspect.
 He wonders why she hasn't a beau whom she knows with out encouraging a man whom she thoughts drift still further. How does she know but that he has a sweet heart, is betrothed or a frivolous mar rfed man for that matter? The more he cogitates over this state of affairs the less the right kind of men want a wife whose conduct has ever been beyond reproach, one whose heart and fair name have never been banded about by the free lances who meet and court women whom they should never have met. An honorable man who 1s really fascinated with a girl would never dream of such a rash course as to attempt to scrape an acquaintance with her. He can se- cure an introduction if he sets about 1t in the right way and is worthy. i If men could meet the girls whom they admire and know them without the formality of an introduction the strict social barriers would soon be tramp1ed down and the greatest con- ] fusion result. Bo1dness in woman kind should be discouraged. Who ! admires the peach with it's tender bloom brushed off? There is anoth- CT grave side to this matter If a girl by chance welded a man with whom she became acquainted without an introduction would not her bosom be ever filled with unrest at the thought that he was liable to form ac- quaintance with some other girl the same way. Have a care girIsi AIaJe- ing acquaintances of men without an introduction has its danger. You can meet an honorable man the right way.

Easy and Practical Suggestions
 FOR THE HOME DRESSMA AKER

The Turkish influence is greatly felt in the making of a1A skirts, however especially those intended for develop ment in dressy materials. The design pictured today is made of satin. with provision for a deep founce of lace or contrasting silk. In this connec- ton, plaid and checked silks are very popular with foundations, of velvet, duvetyn, broadc1oth and crepe de chene
 For woman of average size, it takes A yards of 4o-inch material to make the front outside of this skirt, with 3 yards of lace 26 inches wide for the back and outside section.
 To cut the skirt, place the front gore with edge marked by triple TIT" perforations on a 1engthwise fold. The front and back outside sections are arranged on crosswise fold, while the remaining piece with line of large 70" perforations are placed on a lengthwise thread of the material. If desired with the back outside made; with lace houncing, niter, on line of small "o' perforations-
 Now, p1ait the front outside sectionI placing CT" on corresponding smalE %" Iperforations and tack. Turn unl der upper back edge on slot perfora- tion- Close center-frOnt seam (indi- cated by double "oo" perforation), arr range on foundation, seam at center- front and tack upper edges togethers Stitch edge having single large "O'yt perforation along cross1ine of small %" perforations in foundation, center backs even bringing large 70" per- forations together. Slash down fold at center-back of back outside section to large 70" perforation: finish edges for opening. Gather upper edge be- tween double "TT'' perforations. Ar range on foundation, center-backs even, and bring front edge to small "o' perforation at upper edge of front gore Adjust a webbing or a straight strip of canvas two inches wide to position underneath upper edge of skirt for stay: stitch upper edges to- gether.
 For wear with fancy b1ouses this skirt is frequently made up in twilled silk, with the f1ounce of plaid. It also serves as an excellent suggestion for making over skirts of other seasons.

WRITE PLAINLY FULL ADDRESS
 OR MAIL MAY WANDER

Upon orders from Postmaster Gen eral Burleson, the local office today requests that all first class mail being forwarded to other cities, as well as packages and other mail matter sent through the postal medium be most clearly and distinctly marked. This will not only insure prompt delivery during the holiday rush season, but will save considerable expense in searching directories and trying var iOuS addresses in an effort to secure the proper addressee.
 It has been ascer tained from actual count in Chicago that 465, ,750 pieces of first class mail matter 2O4, 93O, or A per cent contained insufficient address eS and the names had to be checked up at great exp pense.
 The postal authorities attribute this carelesness Of addressing mail to sev- eraI causes, probably foremost among which may be mentioned the various published articles showing how Uncle SaRs employees are able to decipher almost any known species of handwrit- iDg. Business firms are often careless in putting their street address upon letterheads and advertising agencies foster the habit by advising advertis- CTS to leave off the street address in or der to save expense. Each time this is omitted a clerk, unless fully acquaint- ed with the firm, must search through a local directory
 During this season of the year, all first class matter should be addressed, plainly, in ink and have the name of the party to whom the letter is sent, followed by a street address, city, state, and in the case of small villages, the county. The envelope should also bear the name and address of the

BATTLESHIPS SAIL

Villefrancne, France, Dec. The United States battleships Wyoming, Utah and Delaware sailed from here yesterday.
 As they slowly drew out. the wyom- ing's band struck up the Marseil1a1se and thousands of spectators who lined the shores f1uttered handkerchiefs and cheered the departing Americans.
 The ships of the American fleet will gather off Gibraltar and proceed together to the Azores. There the fourth division, comprising the Con- necticut, Ohio and Kansas, will pro ceed for Guatanamo, where the ships will coal, prior to sailing for Mexican waters.
 The American sailormen won all hearts during their stay on the Riviera, and their departure is viewed with genuine regret.

BETWEEN COLOR TYPE
INFORMATION FOR THE
By ELIZABETH LEE

1 (Copyright, 1913, by the Mcclure 1 Newspaper Syndicate) A letter before me reads: 'tI have | been very much interested in reading
 your valuable advice to the blonde
 and the brunette, but how about the
 woman who is neither? I, for in
 stance, feel ' do not belong to either l type, though it may be I a fair 1 brunette. I have gray-blue eyes, light 1 brown hair, a clear complexion with little color and eyebrows about the same shade as my hair. Will you l please tell me just what co1ors I can | wear? I am sure the information would not only be helpful to me but also to hundreds of other women who are of the same type.'
 Strangely enough, it was my inten- l tion to consider the needs of the type | to which my correspondent belongs in my next article after advising the blondes and the brunettes, but can
 quite understand her tnnpatience. Persons of this co1oring are classed
 as "between colors''-that is, those
 who are neither dark nor fafr-and be it said, it is rather difficult to lay
 down any hard-and-fast rules as to
 what this class should wear, for so much depends upon the complexion and the eyes. The hair is always light brown, but the eyes may be brown, blue, bIue-gray, green-gray, or
 
 pink and white, creamy, red and cream, or perhaps sal1ow. The tone is very seldom actually dark. Light brown hair and a dark skin are a most unusual combination. Now, when it comes to the question of wearing blues, the success of choosing from among the wistarias, 1avenders, and purples will depend upon the tints or the skin.
 For instance, the woman who pos. and-cream complexion can wear al gea, both blue and pinky; also mauve, greeny- blues with success but if she then these colors will make her look her very worst
 When the tyes are blue, bIue-gray, certain to be becoming, but those hav- eyes should not wear blue except in deep tone of indigo and navy. Pinks, | however, will suit this type extremely we'll, ar 2 so will certain shades of red, as cardinal.
 When the complexion is pale or sal ! low the deep, rich tones of red will have the effect of whitening the skin | Let the woman who doubts this as sertion place her hand upon a piece of deep red cloth and witness for her l skin. So it is when brought near the | face-the sa1low tint seems to disap- pear and the pale tone changes to a

"TELEPHLASMA" STUFF
 WHICH MAKES GHOST

Berlin, Dec. '"releplasma" is what ghosts are made of, according to Professor Von Schrenck Notzing, the famous expert in psychical re- Search, who has just published a book, 'Materialization Phenomena" to prove that spooks~ are composed of tangible stuff.
 In his psychical experiments with a French medium, Eva S., Notzing took elaborate precaution to prevent de- ception. The medium was often en- tirely nude when photographed by nine cameras simultaneous and also by a bioscope, which showed spirit matter emanating from her and ma teria1izing into Spectres.
 Notzing claims he has proved there are such things as ghosts. In the case of Eva S. the substance whereof ghosts materialize comes from the medi1m and is reabsorbed by the me dium. The organic stuff whereof ghosts are made varies from smoke like to spider web-like. I call this substance <te1eplasma'.'

| Is Matr1mony Love Cooler?
 Copyright, 1913, by the Mcclure

 What! I hear these bitter words
 from thee?

 It is always the bachelor who won ders over this aI1-important query. It all depends upon the married folks whom he knows and associates with If the young man whose bosom chum he was in his single days tells him in g. heartbroF1en burst of confidence that for him marriage is a failure. The sweet girl whom he welded believ- | ing her to be a veritable angel turn ed out to be a regular virago quite 1 as sC\n she got the reins in her hands He adds despairingIy, (the | t1mid creature would say sweetly) ''Td love to go to the theater if you think 1 you would like to see that play" She wanted me to be pleased. Now it's what she wants to see. I have to go with her whether it bores me or mot, and if a bad blizzard is raging. Whether I take my death from cold or not is of second importance to her going to that show. I never believed that a woman could change so com pletely after marriage" This is the first setback a bachelor gets in his visions of a snug little cottage and a wife. Another newly-married man he knew intimately confesses to the bachelor that he is almost on the verge of bankruptcy. He's got a love- ly little wife, but he can't stand the extravagant pace they are going. "She wants to live in millionaire style from a clerks salary. I give her my pay envelope without taking out enough for car fare, to get a shoe shine, or a cigar but we don't speak for a week at a time." In the words of the old story song:
 'tIf could get her was once my re-
 frain.
 When I was single my pockets did
 jingle.
 I wish to the Lord I was single again.
 If this isn't love cooler and a dis couragement of matrimony to a. bachelor, what is? Had the bachelor only known couples who were billing and cooing like doves and to whom life was one grand sweet song, he might easily have been persuaded to emulate the example of the happy married man. The trouble is that the older bachelor is the more he expects of wife. He wants one young and pretty but expects that she will be delighted to plunge into a life that she was never used to, for the sole privilege of writing.
