could be palmer or more shapely. The
Tapped seams help out in the adjust
ment of the garment, and hemmed
edges at the fronts and about the col
lar and cuffs make trim, decorative
finish. The collar is Of the Follower
kind that may be turned up and fas-
tened close about the neck.
Other cloths used for this style are
chinchilla, corduroy, plush, cheviot,
velours, plaids and checks, and the va
rious cravenetted coatings, besides
few fancy weaves.
For driving and for the auto, when
the weather is nipping, these substan'
tial welladjusted coats make their
wearers cozy. Like a tailored suit
they have a style Of their own.
Many of the new models have.
pronounced flare to the skirt, but the
heaviest cloths are cut on most man
nish lines.

r. URNING to intricately carved
i canoes for inspiration, designers
of coiffures have studied them and
have produced few daring and some
very beautiful hairdressings. Canoes
may be relied upon to provide variety
in styles, and the modern artist to
take advantage of every idea which
is to be found in these wonderful
carved pictures.
Much to the surprise OF the artists
in coiffures some Of their most daring
efforts. and a few copies which fol-
lowed the originals almost exactly,
yere seized upon as soon as launched
and the cameo coiffure Is just started
on a career which may establish 1t as
O fad.
Tight curls and smooth, even waves
and much elaboration In arrangement,
characterize coiffures which follow the
suggestions of the cameo. Two OF
them are shown here, and II the hair

the elegance OF this arrangement. 1t
is quaint and charming.

CINCE 1t has become the custom for
~ women to get out of doors day in
and day out, either at the call of busi-
ness or for the sake Of good health,
they have learned to demand many vir
tues in their cold-resisting coats. They
want cloths as warm as fur and good
to look at They affect mannish styles
IN the cut of these utility coats, but
do not permit them to be cumber-
some or too heavy.
Manufacturers have placed on the
market as smart and trim lines as the
most discriminating woman of fash
lon could ask for. One can be quite
unconscious Of the cold when forti-
fed against 1t with the right kind of
clothing. The tonic of the cold will
be enjoyed by the most delicate of
women If they are protected from dis
comfort.
No winter season has come to us
more full-handed in the matter of de-
sirable top-coats for the coldest wealth
er than has this. Styles have been
adapted to cloths, and both to the pur-
poses for which the garment is to
be used. The result is coats with
splendid ualities-warmth, durability
and smartness.

vor In arranging the setting Of
salad nothing adds to its appearance
like crisp green nests Of lettuce
or cress. A most 'unappetizing
appearance may be given to the most
tasty combination if served carelessly
on wilted leaves. Fruit salads are
most attractive on fresh leaves of the
fruit itself used, if obtainable. Mas
turtium leaves if used just before serv-
ing are also attractive and the small
green seed adds to the piquancy of a
salad or salad dressing, If finely
minced. Boats made of cucumber, or
cups made of apples or tomatoes, are
Baskets made of lemon, orange or
grapefruit are also most pleasing salad
dishes. Small cantaloupes may be
used, but are better served as a des-
sert with ice cream.
Rings of stuffed olives, balls Of sea-
soned cheese and nuts, pimentoes cut
in any fancy strips or shal IS tiny rad
ishes, capers and bits of any candied
fruit are largely used as furnishings.
A dainty blossom is often most at
tractive form Of decoration. Tiny
sandwiches containing chopped green
pepper are most toothsome with a
meat salad.
Stalks of asparagus are especially
pretty served in a ring of red or green
pepper and dressed with any desired
salad dressing.

Our Early Chinese Trade.

The rapid growth Of our early trade
with China is shown by the fact that
the 81 vessels carrying in 1905 nearly
I'VE and three-quarters millions worth
Of goods to Canton, represented q
larger fraction Of our total foreign
commerce than our trade with the
whole of China does today. The silver
imported to balance American trade
with China averaged more than two

years down to 1927, and reached .

lowed by the anxious preparation
so common in days passed. Many
a woman in her effort to hold her repI-
tation as a cook, overloads her table.
Today such display is out of taste.
If one cannot afford to use nice
linen all the time she may surely have
one set to use when entertaining. The
bare table is now so commonly used
with pretty doilies that most women
hail the custom as a most economical
one.
For simple luncheon the Japanese
sets, which make no pretense of being
anything but cotton, but which have
pretty designs in artistic colorings, are
we'll liked and are cheap in price.
Flowers for the table always add a
restful look and may be the simplest
little plant or a most pretentious hot
house bouquet. A very pretty fern
like plant may be grown at home by
planting a few seeds of the grapefruit
in small pot. The glossy leaves look
like rare plant.
When candles are used, one may
have the glass candlesticks, which are
very inexpensive, and the shades may
be made at home of the color desired.
Candle light is much softer and pref
tier when coming through dainty
shades than any other light.
Even for small companies, the salad
and dessert course is much daintier
and may be served much more effect
lively as o decoration If served indi-
vidually.
The stemmed glasses make most
dainty receptacle to serve both des-
serts and cocktails, while the handled
cups Of glass can be used either for
punch or sherbet.
Whatever service is used, it may be
dainty. II cheap. In this age 1t is not
the most money which buys the pret-
tiest things. Simple designs in the
dishes used, as well as in cutlery and
linen, is the sign of good taste.
