Lingerie For
 HoT6day Shoppers

NEWER did the shops show more
 tempting lingerie than they do for the holiday shopper. Probably that Is a. statement made every season for each season lingerie does appear to be tevelier than ever before.
 In the last few years, however, 1ince chiffon and crepe de chine have been so largely used for negligees and hn- Kerie, there is a note of beauty about underwear that it has never before had. The fastidious woman always demands lingerie that can be easily washed. and some of the new lingerie, fur trimmed, flower trimmed and made of silk and satin, must be sent to the dry cleaner, but crepe de chine, wash taffeta and other wash silks can all be laundered as satisfactorily as muslin.
 AS for the little silk flowers that are used for trimming. they can be removed whenever the garment they trim is laundered, and when they are soiled they can be dipped in gasoline and so cleaned thoroughly. Some of them can even be treated to a bath in soapsuds, then rinsed and shaken until most of the water Is out of them They should be pinned to a towel and hung in the air, but not in the sun. to dry. They should be shaken two OF three times in the drying
 Crepe de chine underwear is gener- ally lace trimmed, but some of it is scalIoped and embroidered in self toned silks and this is especially durable. as it washes well and is easily troned
 When all is said and done. however, nothing is quite so lovely in the way of lingerie as muslin itself. The sheer est batiste and lawn are used for com binations, chemises and pe6dcoats that vie with the crepe de chine and chiffon garments in beauty Some of them are lace trimmed; some are hand enabroid- cred and run with tiny hand sewed f11cI1s

Brass6eges Are Very MIuch
 Worm

THEE low bust type of corset has made the brass1ere necessity. and now st has risen to importance that must be accepted by the woman with a well planned wardrobe. There are constant Iy coming into importance brassieres that show ingenuity and clever thought on the part of the makers, and the re- suit is certainly beneficial to women
 To meet the demand for evening dresses that are transparent at the top there is a brassiere that has a low line at both back and front, with a chiffon cloth upper. This gives a foundation for shields without the obtrusive view Of the material It also softens the skin for the sheer bodice Of the evening gown. The lower part of this evening brassiere is boned and comes below the waist line so as to prevent the skirt band from soi1ing the corset
 Many brassieres have flexible bones and will answer the demands of con- fort that the dance is placing on them. These bones arc being used at the top of brassieres for women who are not willing to part with the low bust line on corsets, and the gown Of the season needs contour that is not unusual in the natural figure.
 High priced brassieres are Norna- n1ented with lace, chiffon tucks and hand embroidery. They are really ef- fect1ve underbodfces with good boning and add to the general style of an aft ernoon or evening gown.

A FEW weeks ago fashionable womeE
 thought they had struck the newest note when they began to wear their artificial flower somewhere under the left ear. but fashion forever eIudes the grasp of its deyotees.
 For now just aB we have rsadjusted the artificial flowers on all our gowns fashion changes her mind. The left hip is now the correct point for the rose or poppy that lends distinction to the gown
 A new green satin evening froclz shows a large pink rose on the left hip, and one of the new Prernet models is a cream color taffeta with a large black velvet poppy caught nonchalantly on the skirt at the same point Whether or not we shall wear the boutonniere chosen for our winter suit on the left hip of the coat is Q matter for speculation. Stranger Whinns than that has fashion taken.

GrawaGs of Fu1r
 Are Popular

TNHE tailored suit that mas warmth
 in it's folds frequently has an open ing at the top and therefore is uncom- fortable for a cold day. A fur neck piece will answer all demands and fur nish a modish top to any suit of this type. There are many varieties of this practical article, and since they are far less expensive than the larger scarfs. and also can be planned and made at home, 1t 1s certain that they will be popular.
 :. Cravats are smart and this year are more attractive than ever. They are showing the effect of the vogue of wire. Many have high collars that are wired and give stiff, protecting piece at the back These wired collars can be square at the back, turning down in a straight line that suggests the military collar so much in demand. There are extensions of the fur in straight bands that can be crossed over the vest. tied in a loop and ends OF run through slots and. easily held in place.
 Stocks of fur. with straight collar bands and fastening at one, side Un- der a flower, are very much in vogue. These are high and sometimes are edged with frfn of satin or mOus~ seline.
 Another 6avorite fastening is that Of rosette of velvet ribbon with long ends. This is at the back or at the left side. The buckle or clasp of 3eweled metal is another excellent way to lend
 distinction to the finish of a cravat OF stock.

Whem You Bury Oriental
 Rugs

THEE floor and it's covering are fac-
 tors of such importance in the sue- cessful furnishing of the home that one cannot take too great pains in an effort to make exactly the right choice for every room. ASo necessary is it that the floor shall be kept in its proper relation to the other furnishings and in harmony with the color scheme en- ployed that where a rug or carpet is to be used which was not bought es- taken as a keynote for it's treatment in other respects.
 More beautiful than any other floor covering in the world, more durable than any other and for this reason often more economical in the end than any other is the oriental rug, so, per haps, the first question for the home maker to decide is how many of these she can afford. For of all the wonders of machinery in the textile world, and despite the many really beautiful prod ucts of the modern carpet looms, noth- ing, has ever been produced by a fac tory to compare with the finer rugs Of the far east, each with a story very different from all the others, each with a beauty all it's own. each with dividual achievement-the handiwork of the clever fingers of an oriental and his patient, beauty loving soul and mind.
 The more one knows of rug lore the more is appreciated the wisdom of dealing only with the most relia- b1e houses, for the deceits practiced by rug dealers are, many of them, too clever for any but the expert eye to detect. Beware of the bargain" and, oh, beware especially of the "antique,'' in the little shop with the fascinating oriental atmosphere and a queer name!
 Most of the tricks of the trade are practiced in order to make a new rug chemically washed and dyed with ami line dyes, command the price of an antique. To the unwary buyer such a rug can very easily be made to look and to feel genuinely old. A chemically washed rug has lost many years of it's life, and small wonderI For, this is what usually takes place in the proc ess: The rug is stretched on an i'm cIined platform, and a solution of chlorine water is then allowed to trickle over 1t until the co1ors are deemed sufficiently faded out Next | the rug is dampened with glycerin and water, and finally it is ironed with hot 1 irons to produce the desired luster. Yet this is but one of the methods known to the unscrupulous dealer to initiate the soft tones and sheen of the antique oriental rug and by so doing deceive the purchaser into paying a higher price.
