Lace on a Centrepiece

Dear Miss Doom.
/ have just finished embroiderins
a 36-inch white centrepiece and
would like to know how to wash
same. Shall 1 put the lace on first
or shall / wash it before? Also,
how shall | put the lace on?
VIII you also let me know the
luckiest day in November for mar
rying.
Thanking you very much, | re-
main, THANKFUL.
Wash the cenrepiece in lukewarm
suds. rinsing in cold water to which
a little bluing has been added. Let
dry, then sprinkle and iron on
folded blanket while slightly damp.
Cluny lace is effective on centre
pieces. 1t should be held loosely
and lightly "fulled" on, so that
when the centrepiece is washed the
edge viii lie nice and straight. Sew
the edge on before the piece is
Numbered. Measure the edge of the
centrepiece carefully, then allow
about three-quarters of yard more
of lace for the "fulling." Lucky
marriage days in November are
said to be 3. IL, % and 20.

Three Items Of Interest

To clean a white felt hat, make a
paste of pulverized pipe-clay and
water, spread it on the hat and let
1t dry. When dry brush off with a
wnisk broom.
To blanch almonds, shell and pour
boiling water over them. Let them
stand in the water until the skin may
be removed, then threw them in cold
water, rub off the skins between the
hands and dry the kernels between
towels.
To remove paint spots from serge,
cover the spots with olive oil or
fresh butter to soften, and if the
paint is hard, let this remain on for
some hours; then apply some chloro-
form carefully with a clean cloth,
taking care not to inhale the fumes.
Benzine will answer if you do not
care to use chloroform, but it Is not
quite so effective. Be careful to do
the cleaning away from all fire.

But, while all these indications have
more or less interest, there are still
weeks Of warm weather and what really
will be needed are costumes adapted
to the various needs Of the between
seasons time. For these the soft silks
and satinS, laces and the like are really
ideal and it is possible to give quite
a touch Of the future, so to speak, by
the Judicious use of fur trimming or Of
marabout il the fur seems over-heavy.
Gowns Of muslin or Of lace fur trimmed
have made a feature of the French
watering places throughout the later
season. Already the effect Of the
influence is apparent here. On the
street today was seen a costume con-
sisting Of charmeuse skirt with
bodice and long tunic Of crepe de chine
edged with fur ami, at the fashionable
resorts are to be met such things as
lace and muslin treated in similar ways.
That in our climate with its intense
heat the combination is scarcely a
a happy one Is scarcely to be denied
but II IS the business Of the chronicler
to report what is worn rather than
what is suitable and the fur trimmings
that forecast the winter must be men,

A THOUGH this season Is a
~ peculiarly prolific one in the
matter Of coats, belted effects
are very general. The long redingotes
are belted, the Russian coats are belted
and many Of the loose coats show straps
over the back used in some way to
conhne the fullness If not actually
passed around the waist. Tunics fare
gracefully but skirts remain narrow
and the length of the tunic is, to some
extent, matter Of personal preference.
When a tunic coat or faring coat is
worn over a tunic skirt, the length
ymust be determined by the desired
effect and Fashion is generous.
Many Of the new skirts show plaits
~ in to form panels or laid at the sides
or introduced in some similar way and
there never was more beautiful array
OF fabrics to be seen. Broadcloth and
gabardine are to be much worn in COM
bination both with velvet and with
charmeuse satin. Zibelines are ex-
tremely fashionable. There are won

entire gowns and for trimmings and

and most wonderful colors and effects.

thing that bears the Partisan stamp
but. since there is a wide difference
between Paris conditions and those
that we find on this side Of the sea.
the greater number Of smart women
are influenced by suitability and adapt
rather than copy any idea.
For the late summer when evenings
are cool. practical and fascinating COS
TUNES consist Of white muslin skirts
daintily ruffled and Aounced and worn
with long redingote-like coats either
Of fratine or linen that often show stripes
in rather bright colors that give an
eminently picturesque effect.
For visiting and dinner costumes,
soft liberty and charmeuse satins are
admirable and great many beautiful
effects are shown combining crepe with
the satin. Both the straight round
tunics and those that are open at the
front are smart An exceedingly beau
tifuI gown available for many needs
is made with skirt and blouse Of char
meuse satin and tunic and sleeves Of
crepe, the color being a yellow that Is
really superb with blue, and there is
draped over the hips a sash Of blue
satin that terminates well below the
waist line in the back with an enormous
bow while, at the front, there is a
bunch Of morning sloriei made Of the
same blue silk. The skirt is straight
and narrow about the ankles but is
slightly draped at the front and the
tunic is well open at that point and II
and the sleeves are finished with bor-
ders Of embroidery that combines silk
and metal threads. The bodice opens
in deep V over chemisette Of lace
that is finished with a rolling collar.
A feature is found in the fact that the
sash passes under the tunic at the sides
while it is brought out at the back
through slashes cut for the purpose
and tied and. since the crepe is trans
parent. it gives very beautiful effect.
Sashes and embroidery make really
important items just now. Sashes ara
made of ribbon, Of soft silk and Of
velvet and they are draped and tiei
in almost every possible way but uni

A IL the fashionable materials and
~ founces and frills seem especi-
ally designed for dancing frocks.
Lace is conspicuous favorite and lace
includes so many sorts that it is just
as available for the younger contingent
as for the more mature. Charmeuse
and liberty satin are being much worn.
all the crepes are beautiful and chiffon
velvet is exquisite in combination with
other things
The tunic effect is unquestionably
a salient feature. In the picture. there
are two dresses made with deep lace
founces or tunics and, since these
are only straight pieces gathered and
arranged over the skirt, the labor is
not worth considering while the effect
is charming. With the tunic, the under
skirt is preferably narrow but this sea-
son not exaggeratedly 50, for over
skirts fare sufficiently to produce the
needed contrast without exaggeration
in the one worn beneath.
The pretty, soft taffetas retain their
favor, one can hardly think Of them
as falling into disuse. The three COS
TUNES shown here all include lace but
the one with the puffed tunic is made Of
soft tafTeta, the frock with the little
rufles over the hips is made Of crepe
meteore while the remaining gown is
made Of charmeuse satin. There is a
great deal Of pink and a great deal Of
yellow to be worn and they are both
lovely and essentially youthful. All
rufies and puffs and trimmings Of the
material are liked, too. The finish at
the waist line is all-important. Girdles
and sashes are correct and sashes may
either be swathed around the figure or
bowed while girdles are made in so
many ways that anything that is pretty
and gives becoming line safely may be
used. Artificial flowers tucked into the
belt are exceedingly smart and they
are made Of velvet and Of silk to give
a most fascinating note of color. The
costume that shows that treatment
here is worn with a girdle Of veIvst
ribbon and the flowers are Of combined
velvet and silk.
1t will be noted that each Of the
frocks shown here gives a different
neck line. The V-shaped opening is
perhaps the best for the most formal
occasions but square necks also are
