Miss Nalli Nalli. who is playing a lead
ing part in 1.-The Purple Road has a
unique and interesting theory about
noses. she believes that the old saying
FOLLOW your nose and You'll come out
all right is misleading advice and holds
that the nose is a much neglected feature
when, being the most prominent of all, it
should receive most courteous attention.
Turn your nose in the right direction
IS the way she would amend the saying,
land then follow its lead. lust as YOU
would observe the pointer of compass
and then take your bearings Particu-
larry Miss Valh valli is concerned with
the idea that beauty is not a matter of
( perfection of Individual features, but OF
the ensemble effect. and that the best re-
suit is obtained by training the other fea-
lures to harmonic with the one that hap
pens 10 be the most nearly perfect. or
else the one that stands least chance of
changing.

My nose, she says, would be considered
too long to satisfy the exactions of an
artist. and it once was painfully thin,

length. l studied myself in the glass
profile and full face, and decided that all
the other features could more easily be

The Swimming Lesson.

\ little girl can often have her interest
IN swimming stimulated il her swimming
costume is attractive. For instance, a
bright cap of waterproof silk or one of
the red blue or green rubber caps
fril!ed about the face. with carriers of
friled rubber to match, high prove at
tractive to little girl who IS timid
about entering the water. The thought
of wearing the pretty cap would keep
her mind oc rupied 50 that she would for
get her natural dislike of the water.
After a few lessons almost every one
becomes enthusiastic about learning to
swim: 1t is the first few lessons that are
difficult and IL Is during these that a
child sometimes needs coaXing.
A safeguard for the swimmer is thin

there would almost never be case OF
cramps among swimmers if they all wore

then many persons have tried 1t and

Next Year a Velvet Year.

There IS an amazing amount o. tall.
about the recurrence "f velvet for next
winter i'll many wcave- and coiors. There
will be L new variety called mouSseline
plush one French writer sends word,
and there Will be jacquard velvet for
skirts To go with Jackets Of solid colors
and also to be used as trimming in the
way Of collar and cuffs and waistcoats.
The popularity of the latter, meaning
waistcoats, IS on the increase, and it is
believed by those in authority that this
little garment wlll be quite an important
accessory to all coats next winter. The
waistcoat blouse Is becoming more and
more in evidence. although the majority
OF women 90 not seem TO know Just how
10 make use OF it.
In fact there is quite an air Of the
mems costumes Of the Drectoire about
the coat of the modern woman: there is
the long peplum. the wide revers, the col
lar outstanding at the back. the pleated
or ruffied shirt. and now the Introduction
of an inch-Wide black ribbon with white
selvages 10 wear around the neck. on
which hangs watch or lorgnon-ail
features that instantly suggest the CO.'S
tunes of the men Of that epoch.
The black and white ribbon. by the
way, is q very smart touch to the new
costume. The white line on each side
Of the black middle part is broad enough

ornaments on il and the watch is mercy
Slung to it and then tucked into the belt.
The ribbon is q little longer than the line
from neck TO waist, bat not enough to
look ungraceful. When one has jew
eled watch 1t is worn on shorter
band that hangs to the bust, but as this
is not in the Directoire picture the longer
ribbon is preferred with watch that
goes into the folds at the waist line
Naturally one would not want teweled
watch hanging in front OF or below the
waist for 1t would swing like pendu-
| ,um. This is an interesting costume touch
for women to know and it is much more
fashionable than a gold chain or jew
eled one-aithough the heavy gold chain
of colonial times which was worn by
men is very smart asset to the tailored
costume of today.

Makes Body TRANSPARENT

Philadelphia, September 6.-(Speciai)-A
new method of giving medical students
instruction which, it is said. will largely
obviate the necessity of dissection. will
be put into practice at the Hahnemann
Medical college at the beginning of the
next term. Physicians and surgeons con-
nected with the department of anatomy
are now perfecting the process. which
originated through the recent discovery
by German scientist of a fluid by the
use of which the human body can be
rendered transparent.
The fluid, which is composed of several
oils, turns the flesh into sort of trans
