THAT TOUCH OF COLOR.
BY FaANcEs MARSHALL

A touch OF color y essential to almost
everything. There must be touch 'oi
color in each room In our house-howers.
an open fire. hangines Of bright ere
tonne There must be touch OF color
In sodr meals, for an ali-white dinner

belts monotonously unappetixing. And
most Of all there must be q touch OF
color In our clothes.
II 10 not 10 easy to compass this Bit
Of color In our clothes now as II used
to be. Once we could make bow of
bright ribbon and fasten Il boldly where
1t was most conspicuous-and that gave
color to q dun frock. Now the colo,
must be more subtly applied. must SEEM
inEly be a part OF the frock itself.
Perhars the bright corsagc flower is
the easiest colorful detail to add to

suits OF the winter are. most Of them.
somber. Dark in color. heavily fur trim

ness and color. And the crimson velvet
gcraniun. the green end white spray OF
mignonette. the bunch OF metallic rose
buds ell give q point Of color that Is we,-
come Although the corsage flower Is not
used So much As II was last year, 1t is
still In good style.
Then, of course, we can have color on
our hats. In fact. a small bright velvet
toone Is a good choice for the wonai
who wears a black or dark brown or
blue suit Or a black. brown or blue hat
banded with fur. with a single bright
flower at one side Is effective.
or course II is easier to effect the BIZ
OF brightness on the house frock. But
even here II must be carefully introduced.
and the best thing I. do Is to choose a
frock with 4 bit OF color in its makeup

be called into use. 4 necklace Of bril-

street wear will be shown, and the
fourteen models that give the exhibit
will have to be adopts 1t the ice
sport.
Cable dispatches say that pajamas
arc rapidly taking the place Of night
gowns in the wardrobesN of English
women.
Can you guess whyi
1t is really quite obvious. The
Zeppelin raids on more than one oc-
casion have walked folk in the middle
of the night and the foolish virgins"
who were clad in flmy nightgowns
cnvied their wiser sisters who wore
pajamas. The pajama girl was, in an
emergency of that sort. perfectly pre-
sentable. and perfectly able to leap
to safety.
AS still further proof of their
alertness the women are wearing
pajamas of elaborate and substantial
designs, those of heavy printed crepe
trimmed with cretonne collars and
cuffs being the sort most in vogue.
We wonder whether the spirit Of
preparedness" that is gaining
ground SO rapidly in this country
will induce our women to lay aside
the nightgown that is hlny and fem
inine in favor of the pajama of stern
er stuff. MARY MARSHALL.

Jupiter are in benefic aspect, Venus.
Mars and Saturn are adverse.
1t should be an auspicious time for
seeking capital or cooperation in busi-
ness enterprises. Those who obtain this
sort Of support, however, should guard
against later contentious and trouble.
The stars are fairly encouraging for
those who desire political appointments
or public recognition.
Women are subject to the sinister d.
rection today. The stars give them
power to injure those whom they should
benefit Wives may do harm to their
husbands careers. or may cause trouble
by unwise speech. or tactless policies.
Mars has forbidding place during the
later hours today. A sensational episode
in the United States army or National
Guard is prognosticated.
There Is a sign interpreted as threaten
ing to commerce through some COM
plication brought about by the war in
Europe
The seers foretell a desperate measure
which will be instituted by the Kaiser
for the protection or the welfare Of his
people.
The death OF person OF royal blood
is prophesied before another new moon.
Great Britain must face a year Of ex-
traordinary troubles at home, as well
as on the battle field. The horoscopes
Of both the King and the Queen indicate
continued progress of the war. danger
OF Illness and much worry. Bereavement
is shown in the horoscope of the Queen.
and danger to the King Is indicated.
while accident or injury Is foreshadowed
for the Prince of Wales.
[ The death of the Emperor of Austria Is
presaged in his horoscope, for Saturn
Is in parallel with the radical Moon. As
Mars afflicts the Sun. he will undergo
serious military reverses.
Persons whose birthday this Is should
avoid Quarrels and disputes during the
coming year. Success and happiness
depend upon conduct with the opposite
sex.
