MODES OF THE HOUR

Dance frocks or party frocks for young
girls OF the flapper age should look dainty
and fresh, above all things, and they
should have an air of simplicity.
The air of simplicity does not actually
depend on lack OF detail or trimming, but
these must be subservient to the general
composition of the frock. and not inter-
fere with the outline or the silhouette
The dance frock pictured is made of
satin, lace and chiffon, yet the impress
sion conveyed is not that of an elaborate
frOck. but of something quite youthful
and charming.
The jumper bodice is quite plain, ex-
cepting for a slight drRping at the waist.
From under the pointed decolletage an
underbodicc of lace shows, bound with
satin.
The same effect, that is, of two bodices,
is produced by the undersleeve of lace,
satin bound. which shows from under the
sleeve of the jumper.
The lace appears again the last ruffie
of the skirt, which is really deep enough
10 be called fiounce. Above this are
four ruffes of chiffon. of the kind called
indestructible. all of which are satin
bound.
The sash is unusual and a very at
tractlve feature of the frock. Beside the
plated ends of silk falling at the side.
there are two lengths, independent Of
these. which are knotted slightly above
the knees.

BY a Confirmed
Bachelor.

called UP another girl friend, and she
and ] went together.
sss
About two weeks later Beatrice and I
were talking together about an incident
that had happened near the time of the
broken engagement, when she said; ooh,
/ know when that occurred. II was the
day before went to the theatre with Jim
Smith. 1 went with him on Tuesday the
9Th"
I started In surprise for she had broken
her engagement with me on that very
evening, protesting illness. To verify the
argument she produced a theatre pro-
gram. not realizing how she was giving
herself away in so doing. This clinched
my suspicious, and was the end of every
thing for me. felt could never trust
her again, and also argued that a girl
who could so deceive a man was not tho
sort to marry. She appeared to care for
a good time more than she cared for
me, so daresay stood little chance
anyhow
Since then 1 have grown critical of
women, and just as soon as 1 feel at
tracted to any one in particular, notice
some little oddHy OF character which
cures" me at once.
And so here am, a confirmed bachelor,
and quite contented. too. though few peo-
pie may believe mo when say so.

Don'ts for the
Would-be Beautiful

Don't read In trolley car or train If
you value the beauty of your eyes.
Don't forget that bright colors should
not be worn by those who are inclined to
be stout.
Don't wear tightly fitting tailored frocks
IL you are thin and tall.
Don't forget that vaseline Is simply
splendid for thickening and darkening the
eyebrows and eyelashes.
Don't wear your hair too low over the
brows. Thin and scanty eyebrows are
largely caused through this.
Don't rub the eyes too roughly with the
towel after washing. They are liable to
get infiamed If you do,
Don't cut the eyelasnes with the idea
of making them grow. You will do them
lasting harm instead,
Don't lean your elbows on the table. II
you make habit of doing this the skin of
the elbows will become scaly and hard.
Don't forget that you must have a daily
walk of at least two miles, three II pos
slble.
Don't forget that glycerine and cucum-
ber have a very softening effect upon the
skin and should be rubbed into the skin
regularly three nights week.

USEFUL
CHRISTMAS
GIFTS

clean well, but for Inexpensive coverings
we would hold a brief for linen ana
sateen. Both OF these fabrics wear we'll
What Covers to Have
The covering has lot to do with the
comfort Of a cushion. It should never be
harsh, and never so elaborate that one
fears to use t. Cushion covers OF linen
should be prepared for garden chairs and
for the punt in the summertime. A pale
green linen is a good color TO choose.
Black cushions have been, and still are,
very fashionable. They may be Of satin
or sateen and look quite nice without any
adornment A boldly worked monogram
in gold makes an artistic decoration if
any is desired.
When a room contains vivid colorings
In the wallpaper, carpet or upholstery,
then black cushions can be used to mini
mlze the high tones in the color scheme
and prevent an appearance Of crtIdeness.
They look especially nice with some OF
the vivid chintzes in favor just now.
The perfect cushion possesses three
qualities: 1t is soft. capacious and serv-
iceable.
The Christmas glver should keep these
three qualities we'll in mind when devot-
Ing her energies to the fashoning of
these delightful and highly acceptable
gifts. A hard and bullet-like cushion
proves veritable Jacobs pillow to q
tired man or woman. and too many OF
this kind are to be found on the chairs
and couches of the average home.
If 1t Is necessary to give an expensive
looking gift. buy two yards of rich velvet
deep sapphire blue looks beautiful-and
embroider this in tones of dull gold and
pink. The combination looks exquisite,
and soft silks should be used for this
purpose. bold design should be fol-
lowed, ana when the cushion is finished
large heavy tassels of gold or deep blue
should be fastened to each OF the four
corners.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1914-12-22

In length the party frock of the fiapper
equals the length of the dance frock of
her debutante sister, and possibly of her
mamma. She may wear the soft silks,
the lace and the chiffon of her elders and
betters, but there the line should be
drawn.
For her the beaded fiounclngs are non
existent, and although she might wear a
dark dress of velvet i'm the daytime, her
party dress must never be either of vel
vet or plush.
Nor is the satin slipper the best choice
for tho girl at this particular stage.
Slippers of white or colored kid seem
very appropriate. and bronze slippers al
ways appeal to those whose tastes are
conservative.
In the matter of stockings the plain
silk ones with clocks of the same or
even contrasting color are best. Open
work stockings are not good form for the
"jeune flle.'' they SAVIOR too much of
sophistication.
And when IT comes to a wrap in the
evening a cape is all that is fitting and
proper. and a pretty hood or a fur col
lar will give very simple one an air
of distinction.
Scarfs were never more charming
than they are at present. Chiffon tinted
In exquisite shades or flower bordered.
and beaded and spangled scarfs are ali
delightful as features OF the evening
toilette.
