of her gown was finely-pleated or
chid-colored chiffon, and the lace
tunic pretty shadow with lines of
black in the design. Marion's silken
frills fluttered and swayed with every
movement. Her gown was made of
coral taffeta, and the white lace un-
derskirt which extended beneath her
Russian tunic fitted so closely around
her ankles that 1t appeared as if she
was wearing pantalettes. Her black
strapped, low-heel shoes and quaint
Quaker cap made her look as IL she
had just stepped from the frame of
an old-fashioned picture.

The little frock was gray-blue
glace taffeta and trimmed in lace
That sounds quite uninteresting until
l tell you that had the lace dyed to
match the taffeta, which is quite the
thing to do this season. Folds of the
SILK were drawn across the surplice
basque, and the skirt held a wide
silk panel at the front. The rest of
the skirt was composed of tiers Of the
lace-six in all-and 1t was used to
finish the sleeves and neck.
l wore a tango cap OF silver lace
trimmed in rosebuds and tied with
velvet ribbon. My dancing partner
told me he had never seen me look so
pretty before. but, come to think OF
1t. that may have been a compliment
and then again II may have been ONLY
his way of trying to be pleasant.

Velvet and Tulle

one side OF the bodice is of velvet

one shoulder is visible through folds

folds of velvet.

Corsage Flowers

The new corsage flowers are truly
lovely, but they are usually expen-
sive. The woman who cannot afford
these extravagant dainties must
content herself with a flower that
does not bear the stamp of novelty,
says an exchange. Among the new
things there are huge velvet poineet-'
tias. There are interesting little
punches made up of several sorts OF
flowers One shows rose buds with
messy foliage combined with forget
me-nots---a long favored combination,
Another shows purple velvet pansies
combined with rose buds, sprig OF
jasmine and bit Of maiden-hair
fern.

More About the Lost Dog
Dear Misc Dnnn

Dear Miss Doom:
Kindly publish this for Mrs. w.
T. NJ, as l read in Saturdays Eve
ming Star something about the dog.
I found the owner of the dog I
had. 1t was black and yellow
collie, and the man identified him
and claimed him as his, so 1 guess
it could not have been her dog.
MRS. X.
P. S.-Many thanks for your
trouble.
I'm glad the owner found his dog,
but l cannot help feeling a little
sorry that you had to give him up
after growing fond of him.
Ever so many people have writ
ten to me declaring that they
thought the lost dog was theirs.
hope they'll all see this.

Washing a Lace Waist
Dear Margery Doom:

Dear Margery Doom:
viii you please give me directions
for washing a lace waist? Thank
ing you in advance, I am,
WAITING.
Let the waist soak in a bucket of
gasoline for fifteen minutes, rub
bling the soiled places gently be-
tween the palRs OF the hands. Rinse
in clean gasoline and hang in the
air to dry. Do not squeeze or wiring.
The gasoline will eyaporate quickly.
Caution; Do not use gasoline in a
warm room, or near fire, or even
where there Is lighted gas jet. 1t
is highly inflammable. 1t is the part
Of wisdom to use gasoline out of

Praise and Flattery

There is Just this difference between
the two degrees of praise and flat
tery-that whereas the former heart
ems up to brave and ever drawer en-
deavor, the latter checks self-culture
and destroys future progress by maxi
ing one believe in attainment, says
an exchange.
According to the fiatterer, the goa.
has been won and the great plateau
of perfection reached; there are no
more dreary distances to traverse, no
more rugged mountain sides to climb.
All that is needed is to enjoy what
one has, and be grateful and glad for
what one is.

weeks much of it can be removed
by spf.inkling the locks thickly with
fine cornmeal, which is brushed out
after absorbing the dirt, with
long. but soft bristled brush. Stiff
bristles will over-stimulate the
scalp.
A mixture of three drains of
glycerine and four ounces of lime
water should be kept on the dress
ing-table and the scalp wet with it
every night. Rub this in with the
finger tips.
The above treatment, combined
with patience, will improve your
locks, l am sure.

Black lingerie Is new thing in the

colored predecessors, says an ex-

1.-THE Wolf" is Comma.

Eugene Walters play, "The Wolf"
which comes to the Guthrie theater
on Wednesday. January 2S, might be
called poem play of pictures. 1t is
very seldom that one sees play that
grips the interest and piques the
curiosity with its first line. "The
Wolf" does that. The curtain rises
on a beautiful scene, it is Indian
summer in the Northern woods.
Pines and golden foliage mingle their
light and shade. A stream winds
down the avenues of cottonwoods. In
the background are the blue foot hills.
TIC the right is the log house of Nc
lavish, with great tree in front of
it. Undre the tree sits Batiste. the
Canuck, putting at his pipe. In the
porchway is the gaunt form of Nc
lavish. He, too. is smoking. The
two men puff in silence for a mo-
ment, while the auditor takes in the
perfect coloring perspective and
grouping of the scene. Then Nc
lavish says, you say that she died,
mon?"
This Is enc OF Eugene Walters
strong points-begins his story with
the opening lines. He wastes no
time in unnecessary conversation, and
