Every woman knows the comfort OF
well made, attractive and yet loose
and simple neglige. This design Is one
of the simplest possible for neglige,
which partakes of the nature of
morning dress, and can be worn as
such no matter who unexpectedly calls.
The top is a plain kimono top with
loosely fitted sleeves, confined to the
wrist by a very dainty cuff. The collar
also takes away from the kimono idea
and gives a dresSy touch to the upper
part of the garment. This neglige may
be made with or without a short train,
although a train on a short woman
always gives her the appearance of
greater height and grace. The best
materials for making up this neglige
are japanese and Chinese cotton crepe,
which are made as well in America as
in the orient. Printed challes and
wash silks, and silk crepes are all ad-
mirable for making up simple negliges,
because they all can be easily washed,
without losing their color or shape.
The sash, which is worn with this
strap at the back and not confined
around the waist except when one
wishes to give the wrapper the ap-
pearance of dress. Now that all
dresses are wider than formerly, the
writer would suggest adding an extra
fold of the goods in'the middle of the
back when cutting out the pattern.

MINGLED COLORS OF THE SEASON.
BY ANNE RITTENHoUsE.
l C,rresnopdence Of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK, November 20.-No one
denies that nthe promiscuous min
Cling of colors there lies danger to
dress Whenever there has been an un-
usuaI amount of license allowed we
have seen deplorable evidences, singly
and in mass. of the lack Of color sense
in the majority of women.
Even the so-called masters of ap-
pareI are not always able to make a
color combination that the artists
would approve, and, after all, their YER
diet is the only one that counts in that
especial field of dress. in the lesser
larger field, although they do not seem
TO have succeeded.
Nine. PaQuin. who was the everyday
goddess of the young artists in France
who are always trying new things,
gave to these young men every oppor-
tunity to make good in her establish
ment on the Rue de la Paix, but the
experiments were always failures.
The same was true when two of the
Russian nobility gave the order for
court costumes to Leon BakSt. The
dressmaking house in Paris to whom
they were intrusted, at the head of
which was another insurgent in his
own field, found it was impossible to
carry out the ideas
The man who is only an artist has
never yet succeeded in making women's 8
clothes look as they should: he sacri-
fees too much to the main thought he
carries in his head, and what might
look we'll on canvas is grotesque on a
modern woman going about modern
activities.
After France had tried out costly eX-
periments in attaching these artists
TO important dressmaking houses the
result is that the cleavage has come
with emphasis. Every one was dis
satisfied-the cutters and filters, the
dyers of fabrics. the people who did
the sewing and. most of all. the artists
themselves.
The heads of the houses took their
large losses with good nature, for they
were responsible for the movement, but
* is proba BILE that it will not be tried
In the near future. 1t gained sweeping
publicity. but no one likes to be allied
to a conspicuous failure, and this one
was such.

WEAK, AILING CHILDREN
! Made Well and Strong by
Simple Remedy.

Here is another letter that has just
come to our attention, showing the
} power of Vinol to build up health
and strength for weak, puny. ailing
( children.
w. A. Smith of Shanesville, Ohio,
{says:-"My little child was puny,
( weak and ailing. could not rest at
night and would not eat. 1 learned
about Vino1 and tried it, and with
in a week noticed an improvement.
The child's appetite improved, it
slept well, strength and heath were
soon built up. We think Vinol is
excellent for weak. puny children"
Vinol is d delicious cod liver and
iron tonic without oil. containing
beef peptone, which creates an ap-
petite, tones up the digestive organs,
enriches the blood and creates
strength: children love to take it,
We ask all parents of weak. sick
1y, delicate children in this vicinity
to try Vinol with the understanding
that we will return your money il
it fails to benefit your little ones.

task that most often tries the patience
and defeats the beauty of the frock.
This gown may be quoted, however,
as a leading example of what to ex-
pect this winter. 1t is strikingly good
looking in its present form and was
made for an American who has enough
brilliancy of personality to carry 1t off.
The material is green faille, that
ribbed silk that our forbears wore. The
short skirt is trimmed with peltry: SO
is the slim bodice. The touch of con-
trasting color is given in the violet
sash made of chiffon and definitely
looped. or tied, into a hustle effect at
the back. This punching of material
of some sort at the end of the spine
grows in favor since it was introduced
by the French designers in August.
Both the shades of green and pur-
pie are subdued, as the frock is intend
ed to wear under a topcoat that COM
pletely covers it. Its simplicity is ap-
pealing, for women have grown tired of
the bows and ruchings and furbelows
that have marked SO many of the day
time frocks for their own.

Winter Bath Robes and

be right, must be warm and downy
Nothing is more uncomfortable than to
emerge from a refreshing bath to find
the world grown cold. A thick bath
robe is sure to make the world seem

and not long enough to touch the

carefully chosen. There are some love-
ly grays, If a dark robe is desired,
and for light one there is lavender

Sometimes a satin hem and satin
plnolngs are put on blanket robes, but
these are rather fragile. They soil
very quickly, and they are sure to
wear thin and shabby before the
blanket part wears at all.

useful addition to any bath robe. A

in this pocket.
A deep collar or hood adds much to
the becomingness of a bath robe of this
sort And a scallop crocheted around
the edge of collar and cuffs is an at
tractive finish. A cord, too should be
fastened at the waist. or else a wide
belt Of the blanketing should be used,
with frog fastening.
A quilted robe Is almost as warm as
la blanket robe. But it is not SO
durable. The blanket can be washed
time and again The quilted robe, II 1t
be of silk. must be carefully cleaned in
gasoline.
Like a blanket robe. a quilted one
should be made on rather generous
lines. One that is quite fiat and tight
is unbecoming. And, again, the color
must be chosen with an eye to be-
comingness.

general set of the design. A collar and
