USE ALCOHOL ON TIE HAIR
Especially If 1t Is Apt to Get Dusty
and Unmanageable Is This
Recommended.

If the hair is dusty and unmanage-
able after a journey of any sort, try
using alcohol to make it fluffy. The
alcohol will dry in few moments and
the hair will be ready then to arrange.
Many women who have taken a rail-
road journey of several hours dura-
ton to wedding or dance have found
their hair, owing to the heat and dust
If the journey, quite heavy and dirty
and have despaired Of getting it in
shape in time for the festivities. A
shampoo takes too long to be indulged
in while one is dressing-and some
times it leaves the hair too fluffy for
Immediate managing.
To get back to the alcohol treat
nent. Part the hair and rub little
alcohol on piece of gauze on the
scalp until it is free from dust. Then
rub the hair about the brows and ears
and the nape of the neck with the
alcohol. OF course, it should first have
been brushed as free as possible from
lust. Then let the hair hang loosely
until the alcohol has dried out The
hair will be light and fluffy.

TO ACQUIRE SHAPELY ANKLES
In These Days Of the Short Skirt Its
Possession Is Something Greatly
to Be Desired.

There used to be a time when our
dresses, or at iaast the dresses of our
mothers, reached to the floor, or SO
nearly so that brush braid or coarse
binding on the bottom hem was nee
esary to preserve the fabric In those
days, If the tiniest bit of feminine
ankle showed above the shoetop it
was a cue for a woman to blush.
Praise be, these conditions do not
hold today. What with our hobble
skirts, slit skirts, tight skirts, short
skirts and now short circular skirts,
we have become accustomed to dis
playing our ankles. Woman's right
to the possession of ankles has finally
been recognized, consequently pretty
ankles are greatly to be desired, as
they add to ones general appearance
and beauty is indeed duty.
To improve the shapeliness of ankles,
exercise and massage will do Won
ders. 1t will be found that most
ankles which are unattractive, or not
quite so shapely as the possessor
might wish, either lack sufficient
flesh or else are too fieshy.
If your ankles are little stout you
can reduce them in month, or two
months at the most, by means of a
little exercise ten minutes morning
and night. Remove the shoes and
stockings and cross the knees so that
the support is removed from one
ankle Thrust out the foot and move
it around from the ankle in twisting
motion, then bend it up and down,
making sure that all this is done with
the ankle bone When one foot be-
comes tired shift position and exer-
else the other ankle.-C. Eleanor
Mather in New York Press.

FASHIONS FANCY FOR SILK
Material Is Employed to Greater Elk
tent Than II Has Been for
Many Seasons.

While ones attention is centered
upon cotton, one must not lose sight OF
silks. They occupy very prominent
place in the wardrobe of the up-to-
date woman. All dresses intended for
afternoon functions are made Of silk,
Delicate voiles or ottomans, soft taf-
fetas, silk velvets and wool velour are
all used in developing these dressy
frocks Distinctive effects may be OBJ
tanned by combining these materials
with gold-embroidered chiffon, jet,
pearls, or adding to them bands of fur,
such as skunk, sable, ermine and the
popular ape skin.
The evening dresses of this season
are not so rich and daring as those of
last winter but in many ways they are
more pleasing The textures are ex-
quisite, reminiscent of the lovely fab
RIGS of the days of the Italian renais-
sance. There are soft gold and silver
brocades, delicate taffetas, thin lace
drawn through with metal threads and
crystal and jet embroidered chiffons
and tulles.
To 60 back to the less costly mate
rials, such as silk and fine cottons, in
which the majority of women are in
terested in these hard times, dance
frock of bordered organdie, taffeta silk,

considered the correct thing. Indian

that have always stood the tests of
time, and return from time to time
after little rest. The suits of this
material have been such good friends
that the separate coats are to profit
from their example. Covert cloths in
tan and green will be in vogue.
Serges of all finishes and weaves
will be in high favor. Those in dark
blue and green and all shades of
brown will be in order. They will be
wooden buttons and trimmed with
these practical materials.
Gabardines win also be in good
standing for the new coats. This ma.
terial is good in color, and has a
wearing quality that is desideratum
when topcoats are considered.
Novelty worsteds and woolens in
light weights will be made in sports
coats and topcoats for the informal
hours. The raglan sleeve and high
belt line will be in evidence and will
be Of leather, suede cloth or soft
suede.
Checks and broken plaid effects are
to be used, and the trimming will be
in a color that repeats the shade of
one thread in the weave.

the fact that European Russia is in it
