Salesman So Charming That He Failed
TO Get the Business.

TO Get the Business.
In the February American Maya
zine, Edna Ferber writes another
story in her new series of advertising
tales, The stories are about the ad-
vent of young Jock McChesney into
the advertising business. The first
big Job that Jock tackled resulted In
n failure which nearly knocked Jock
of his feet. In the following extract
from the story Bartholomew, his boss,
tells Jock why he fell down.
"I mean, said Bartholomew Berg,
that you've scored what the dramatic
critics call n personal hit; but that
doesn't get the box office anything.
"'But Mr.. Berg, they said
"'Sit down n minute boy he waved

gazed out of the window toward the

you fell down on that Athena ac-

"Because Pm an idot,' blurted
Jock. Because I'm a double-b -barreled

Old Man grimly. But it's not the
chief one. The real reason why you

"Just that. Personalitys one of
the biggest factors IN business today.
But there are some men who are so

that he is personality plus. Person.

It's got to be tanned TO be useful.
"But I thought said Jack, mlser-
ably, that the idea was not to talk

Pedigree Wedding Wells.

THE bridal fad of the day is pedi-
l gree wedding veil, unadorned with
orange blossoms.
The veil is a piece of lace as rare and
as old as the bride can afford. Even If
the veil itself is of tulle, the cap that
supports it is of old lace. Such caps
cost often as much as $50. and one that
costs a hundred dollars is not very I'M
usual They are made of old lace, bought
from time to time by lace dealer from
old families. sometimes in Europe, some
times in America, who find themselves
more in need of money than their price
less collections of lace.
The bits of lace, which are often in the
shape of barb head or neck pieces worn
by the fine ladies of years ago, are
manipulated into very up-to-date little
caps by the clever lace workers. The
newest shape is probably the peasant s
cap, with wired tabs that flare out from
the snug-fitting little crown.
These caps are ornate enough in them
selves without the addition of orange
blossoms. and so they are generally worn
without the addition of the time-honored
bridal flower. If the bride desires to
have a few orange blossoms about her
she can use them for corsage flowers, as
some of the fashionable brides OF the
last few weeks have done.

THE DAINTY LACES
HAVE MANY USES

TUNIc and minaret skirts for dressy
wear require lace iouncing Il to %
inches wide. The three-tier skirts are
made for evening wear of 1s-inch flounc-
ing.
Waistcoats of shadow lace are very
dressy with silk crepe collar and net
frill close around the neck.
Filmy corset covers or brassieres worn
under a silk crepe net waist are usually
of shadow all-over lace.
Blouses of shadow lace are lined with
f1esh-colored or cream chiffon. These are
of white or ecru, with a wide upright
neck frill of net. White or brown fur is
sometimes used to finish the V-shaped
neck with or without an inside ruffle of
pearl. rhinestone or crystal buttons.
Pretty sashes for evening gowns are of
a long, flmy lace scarf draped as a Cir
die and tuQic, with one or two ends at
the back or front. The japanese sash.
called the "obi." is worn tied in two
loops at the back above the waist line.
In millinery thin laces form the bows,
borders and butterflies.
Heavy applique laces are used on wide
collars on evening wraps.
Lace scarfs are draped over evening
gowns to form a fchu-like effect on one
side of the corsage, which crosses the
back. and hangs long over the left arm
like a deep sleeve, with the lower end
tassel-tipped.
Fur muffs are decorated with five-inch
plated ruff1eS of shadow lace SeWed in
the openings. The neckpiece has the ruff
f1e inside of the collar.
F1ouncingS are used for one and two
piece negliges and boudoir caps and dress
ing sacques, as well as for petticoats.

For Dancing Frocks.

z FASHIONABLE frocks call for light
i garnitures of gay and brilliant eff
fects. This brings into use bands, motifs
tassels and such shapes as corsage
girdles, tiny yokes fitting around low
neck, jacket and tunic shapes, and SO on
These are all of crystal. pearl, rhinestone
and jet effects. and many pendants are
seen. Fringes are used very effectively
and are of beads in crystal, pearl sill <

materials.
Pendants and tassels of beads are of
every size, shape and color and are used
wherever one can be placed, either for
use or for ornament. Some of these tas-
sells measure tWentyseven inches and are
Of rhinestone, crystal and pearl. Black
and white net bands are embroidered in
beads and silk in the rich but subdued
Persian, Turkish and Chinese colors and
designs. Cascade effects on bands and
flouncings are also of beads. Steel is
used with jet.
Floral bands used on net dancing
frocks have larger roses of satin or chif-
fon and smaller forget-me-nots. These
trimmings used to keep to one color, but
now several colorS are combined. and
these bands are used on founces. top of
the neck, lower edge of sash ends and
sometimes a row around the girdle. Some
net-embroidered bands are twelve inches
wide and reproduce Persian rug and
cashmere shawl designs.

1t Is far reaching and interesting.
One sees few of those gowns now which
Arnold Bennett SO cleverly described as
vague frocks which had formerly been
something else. and would soon be trans
formed by discreet notifications into still

1t may be that the fashions change too
or it may be that the shops offer SO
much that is fashionable at moderate
prices that We would prefer to buy
something new rather than put money
into something old. Possibly. we have
advanced so far along the road Of labor

One Of the novelties of the millinery
trade is the hat shaped and trimmed with
fantasies to resemble an Indians head
gear. The idea may have come about
through the desire on the part of women
to wear hats as high as Humans gal
lows, These affairs are not worn on the
streets, but in the house. OF, rather, under
a roof, for afternoon or evening. Sew
eral have been seen at dances and the
effect was good, for it added another
touch to the brilliancy of the scene. and
this seems to be the desire of women to-
day.
1t is not a new desire; women have
been actuated by it ever since leopard

skins added to the gayety of the caves
where our foremothers lived and did their
entertaining.
One of these Indian headdresses was
all in brown. and was worn above a
gown of yellow tulle trimmed with
crystal beads. The band fitted the
head snugly and was placed a little to
the side as hat would be. In even
rows the brown and gold feathers
shot upward, close together
-
Another one was black numidi
spirals attached to headband of
black velvet. 1t was worn above a
gown of black tulle with sleeves made
from jet beads.
Where the hats are going to stop in
their upward progress is now ques-
ton for the police. or rather the de-
partment of public safety. 1t has
ceased to be funny; it is decidedly an
noylng. Towering masses of palm
trees may be all very we'll in the
Panama Canal Zone, but not on Main
street. and not in the theater or any
public place where persons go to see
something.
Possibly, if a woman held her head
entirely still, those around her might
have peace, but If she is restless the
only thing to do is to leave the build
ing, or persuade her to remove her
hat. There might be a chance of sue
cess If the wearer were at concert,

until the next day, then boil five minutes,
add five pounds of graduated sugar and
let stand for another tWenty-four hours.
Then cook slowly for two hours. This

Grapefruit is an enemy to malaria,
grip and biliousness. The cut fruit is
improved by pouring maple sirup over
1t the evening before it is served. and
allowing it to stand all night. 1t imparts
deliciousness not obtained with sugar.

When cooking cranberries, do not let
them come in contact with any metal,
as they contain a large proportion of
acid. Instead use stoneware or porcelain
lined utensils. If the berries are not to
be kept whole, the sugar should not be
added until the fruit has cooked long
enough to break open. If the berries are
| to be kept whole, they must be cooked
without stirring.
Baked cranberries are delicious. Put
a quart Of berries into an earthen bak-
Ing dish. with about half a cupful of
water. Cover securely and set in slow
oven to remain undisturbed until the
berries are soft. When done stir in sugar
until the mixture seems sweet enough.
then return the dish to the oven, bake
slowly for about fifteen minutes and cool.
Cranberries with raisins make a de-
licious combination. Prepare the berries
exactly as for jelly. add a quarter of a
pound of raisins for each pound of berries
weighed before cooking. first stewing the
raisins for an hour in just enough water
to cover them. Sweeten to taste
A delicious dessert may be made as
follows: Put into a small kettle one
quart of cranberries, two cups OF water
and one and a half cups of sugar. Lay
on top squares of rich biscuit dough.
Cover closely and let boil for fifteen
minutes. The crust will then be nice
and light. A liquid sauce may be served
If desired Cranberries cooked with
grapes make a good pie.
Cranberries may be kept fresh in pals
or Jars Of water. Reject all bad ones
and change the water if the berries are
kept longer than a week.

TN a speciality shop are sold boxes of
pink and japanned tin that look like
large paint boxes. They are tied
with pink and blue ribbons, and one of
them would make a lovely gift to the
fastidious woman. For in this dainty
case Is contained everything that is nee
essary for the care of the complexion.
These boxes come in three sizes
Here is list of what the boxes CON
tain: Cleansing cream skin tonic, which
IS used by many women as a muscle
tonic instead Of water at least once a
day; softening cream, powder. neck To-
ton and face lotion. package of sachct
for softening the water; bandalettes,
which are paper pads to be STEPPED in
warm water and applied to the eyes at
night or morning when they need re-
freshing; eyelash tonic. to be applied with
the little finger: color eye drops. to
make the eye whites clear and strengthen
the eyes: muscle oil to remove creases,
eyelash brushes, two of them-one white
and one black, and each like tiny
toothbrush not more than an inch and
used for the lashes as well as for the
brows. A box of this sort is as con-
venient for the stay-at-home as it is for
the woman who goes about.
Japanese tissue paper is to use in
cleansing the face instead of face
cloth. 1t possesses the big advantage
that 1t can be thrown away after it is
used, and therefore appeals to the fas-
tidious woman as cleaner than any cloth.
These little sheets of tissue paper can
be used to apply lotions. GOLD cream or
water to the skin. 1t is thin. soft and
at the same time firm.
Are you up to date in the use of face
powder? If you are you have two sorts
of powder-one to use in the daytime
and one to use in the evening. The
evening powder. because of the fact that
1t will be shown under artificial light, is
colored slightly mauve. This sort OF
powder must be expensive to be deli
cately and naturally colored. and for a
good quality $3.50 a box is not an ex-
orbitant price. The daylight powder has
q pinker tinge.
And. by the way, the correct thing to
do, If you use much powder and If you
use color for your cheeks, is to have your
natural complexion matched up very care
fully by an expert. A woman not long
