A s usual the neckwear counter is
 showing some exceedingly attrac- tive new inspirations It does seem that both in neckwear and millinery there is an unfai1ing, constantly flow ing stream of new ideas. Let all other sources fail a fashion scenting nose and searching eye on the shopping tour yet are they appeased by the gratifying array of the neckwear coun- ters and millinery shops.
 So it is that today you are to be told of a new and ravishing bit of neck wear that splendidly promises to soften both features and beautify comp1exions flesh colored organdie, made up in collars, cuffs and fichus! 1t is, of course, an evolution of the white organ die, the latter still being in excellent standing. Description will not do jus tice to the lovely new flesh colored bits of neckwear. One has really to see them to appreciate their "softening" effect.
 An exceedingly pretty and new effect Is also obtained by the combination of two or more spick and span new ideas in neckWear-white organdie and cre- tonne. Both collars and cuffs, but prin- cipally collars, of cretonne are yelled with an upper layer of the white or gandie The organdie is usually picoted about the edges and is arranged in the form of one loose flap to each piece of the neckwear, being stitched only at one side to keep it in place.
 Taking general survey of the new est neckwear, touch of color'' is un- doubtedly it's chief characteristic. This is sometimes obtained by cretonne, sometimes by edging folds of lawn in plain colors Gall colors), sometimes by colored embroidery and in one particu- larly striking and very chic bit of neck wear by rainbow edge. The latter is a plaited organdie jabot, one sided of four inch width. having along its edge one inch lawn border of rainbow stripes. These stripes are about quar- ter inch in width and each of differ ent color. It's really ripping style.
 Have you seen the newest bracelets ? Proud jewellers are displaying them in the cases devoted to their most exclu- sve goods. The bracelets are made en- tirely of that new green gold which has met with really a remarkable degree of popularity, considering it's recent ap- pearance. No name is attached to the new bit of jewelry. The bracelet is a flexible strip which lies as fiat as a silk ribbon when not worn. The strip is made of tiny squares of heavy gold, mysteriously linked, the squares being not quite a quarter inch in diameter. The @ jeweler < says that w they ' are

, partly hand work and partly engine turned and a most exquisite production.
 Green gold, by the way, isn't dull. It has quite as high gloss as the bright yellow gold so long in favor. Green gold is a charming substitute for the woman who thinks platinum too pale. You will like to hear about some trinkets which all womankind would covet-tiny boxes about an inch in diameter, cut from solid bits of rose quartz jade, lapis lazuli, and one would you believe it?-from a single lovely violet tinted amethyst! Each has a lid made from a single bit of stone to match its box proper, trimmed and bound to the box by thin bands of gold and tiny gold hinges. Another beautiful thing about them is that they range in price only from s25 to $65. The boxes could be used for many things-pins, bonbons, scents, ointment, etc.
 Corals and cameos are in fashions front rank at present, and if you are fortunate enough to possess any heir looms of this character be sure that they see the light O day at an early date. Not only are cameo pins being worn at the throat-they are appear ing upon hats, frequently being used to pin tailored bows at the side of hat

crowns Usually, however, cheaper pins than those worn as brooches are used. Belt buckles, those you buy for his birthday, are now to be had without tongues. They are ever so much nicer than the old kind and very fashionable among suspenderless males. Women are bound to be interested in them as one more item added to the painfully small list of things one can give a man and feel that he is really grateful
 In the millinery shops there are the cutest little quilted hats imaginable. They are of silk, usually in pastel shades, and are worn for anything from sports to afternoon affairs and, indeed, for very informal evening wear. Con- sequent1y chic hat of this description forms a very economic purchase for the woman who possesses but a slender purge. a
 The swanlike turbans of smooth white coq feathers have been follow ed by similar turbans formed of gray ish brown feathers that give them the appearance of our common sparrows.

BEAUTYS AIDS FOR MIL LADY

no you want a real live, glowing
 face? Why, then, just attach some one of the many electrical appliances for massage to your electric fixtures and proceed to dab chained lightning all over your cheeks and neck. The blood is brought tingling to the surface, the tissue is electrified with life, and firmer as well as fuller outlines reju- venate the face. Besides the improve ment which is wrought by electricity in the tissue and skin, as to contour and color, it serves also to obliterate wrinkles. Indeed, many women take regular electric massage from special ists in the use of electricity with view to wiping out the marks of age or worry and smoothing over the face with youthful bloom.
 A fact known to all students of the art of beautifying is that fresh blood builds up tissue, and it is thus the endeavor of experts to bring fresh blood to pale and hollow checks, both to impart color. and to plump. them out. Anything,e therefore, from smart pats

 THE CARE OFVAL LUABI F. RUGS


ErTHE mere buying of rug by no
 means ends your responsibility in the matter, for the care of valuable rugs is most important unless you want them ruined, and since a handsome rug increases in value as years roll by it pays to keep it in order.
 In the first place. the ubiquitous vacuum cleaner should not be used on a rare rug since it loosens the nap in drawing out the dust.
 Just because a rug has stood centuries of wear it does not prove that it will stand few years of neglect and abuse.
 Every year your collection should be gone over by an experienced dealer.
 An expert will at once be able to de- tect signs of wear and repair holes which if neglected would soon stretch to appalling proportions. Patching will not do. It is necessary to weave in new threads and filler in matched colors, a well known expert will tell you.
 It is inadvisable to attempt to clean valuable rugs yourself for obvious req sons, but during winter usage the best way to clean rugs at home is to turn them right side down and tap them gently with light, flexible stick or piece of rubber on the wrong side and then sweep with a dampened broom.
 But if much soiled call in the expert, who will not only know how to re- iuvenate 1t, but will take care of it for you In the. summer. -. ,,u.u. 4pngSvc bnu1d never hns acEed FnT@ Ir

where they cannot have monthly in- spection at the very least @
 The washing of rugs is a simple mat ter for the expert, but impossible for the housekeeper. At a reliable estab- lishment where they have oriental workmen they first remove carefully all dust and dirt and moth eggs and then wash with pure water and brush es, adding afterward a cleaning prepa- ration which the true oriental will not divulge for the sake of his trade and because he knows best himself how to apply it. A reliable man will not use harmful acids or washes.
 After washing and scrubbing it the rug is rinsed and then carefully and evenly hung up to dry a process which takes from twenty-four to forty eight hours. .,l..
 Never fold a handsome rug when put ting it away for the summer. Roll it with sheets of newspaper and camphor between and then wrap it in newspa- pers and sew it up tightly in an en- veloping sheet or non-wool cover.

Fl lower Culture Perennials May Be Sown
 at This Time.
at This lne.
Sa*.+i]s+.+.+:*.+4+.+.+sSs,

SEEDS sown in August and trans O planted to permanent quarters in September get a fine, strong root growth that enables them to survive the cold of the winter if they are given some covering. A few will no doubt die, but there are always enough sur viving to make a good clump of each variety sOWn.
 Perennials may always be sown at this time, and you gain thereby whole years bloom. If you SOW them next spring the majority of them will not bloom till the following year. Sown in August, transplanted in September, they will bloom next summer. Biennials, which are plants sown one year, blooming the second and then dying, may be had in your garden in bloom every year by sowing some each August to keep up the supply. Many annual seeds will survive fall planting and appear early the next sea- son, far ahead of spring sown seeds. Annua1s are best sown in the fall, for they are not to make their growth till spring. Midsummer is a good time, and even October, if the weather is mild. Make the ground mellow and fine in the usual way and then mark the place so that the seeds will not be disturbed in raking the beds. Cover with leaves, boughs or straw after the first real hard frost.
 Sow where they are to remain, though most annuals will stand trans planting if you wish to move them.
 Some very fine annual cornf1owers came from five cent package of mixed seed sown late one warm September. There was no sign of them that fall. Early the following spring a great round clunp appeared that was soon two and half feet high and began very early to put out lovely large blossoms of blue, blue and white, pink, pink and white, and bloomed splendidly all sum- mer long.
 Sweet peas are often sown in the fall with good results.
 The seeds are large and hard and are put in trench six inches deep, a little deeper even for fall planting.

girl who is always well dressed for every occasion has one of these dresses
 made of dainty washable challis. For formal afternoon occasions a best dress is needed.
 Upon the college girls evening outfit any amount of time and money may be spent, but the girlish gown always looks best. The dancing slippers and stockings should match her dress and a warm cloak should be supplied to go with it.
 The tailored suit for travelling, church and trips to the city will have a dressy waist for best occasions, and one of the plain ones will be worn with it upon usual ones. A stylish hat to match and gloves will complete the costume. Thus outfitted the little college fresh man will find herself prepared for al- most every occasion that will arise.
