Tulle Much Used.

Great quantities of tulle are being
used on evening gowns this season not
only for fashioning the gown, but for
trimming purposes, in wisps of draper
les, scarfs and in one gown as a train.
A black and gold evening frock shows
a wide piece of tulle caught across the
back of the frock and held with jet
bracelets to the wrists.
Queer freaks are to be seen among
some of the latest importations. A
midnight blue taffeta coal is lined with
blue serge, reversing the order of
things generally. In a rose and black
velvet evening coat, where the waist
portion is Of the lighter shade and the
skirt portion of the other, the lining of
satin reverses the color, the rose velvet
being lined with black and the black
with rose. A venetian purple evening
coat is lined for a depth of eight or
nine inches with a Powered and bro
caded velvet ribbon, another proof of
the ribbon craze.

so FEMININE!
How Woman May Powder Their Noses
Without Giving 1t Away.


Women are acquiring more and
more the habit of pulling a powder
puff from every imaginable hiding
place and powdering their faces in
public. 1t makes one conspicuous, and
the average woman does not approve.
but she answer that one must pow
der. and in this day of rush and dis
tances she cannot always take time to
freshen up IN. the proper way.
1t is surprising, considering that the
handkerchief is very often a hiding
place for the powder puff, that some
ingenious woman did not think of this
new contrivance before. Stitched fiat
on the center of the handkerchief is a
neat pocket-like arrangement, which
acts as a receptacle for the puff. The
puff may be taken out when the hand
kerchief is ready to be Numbered. The
puff in itself is odd in that it opens
wide enough at the top TO permit a
generous supply of powder to be emp
tied in and fastens again with a snap
per.
When one feels the need of powder
the center of the handkerchief, in
which reposes the puff, may be gently
patted against the face. while to all
outward appearances the owner has
only been using her handkerchief, and
likewise If only the handkerchief is
desired one need not apply the center.
And to add to the attractiveness of
this contrivance they are to be made
in many different designs, plain and
embroidered, the same as handker-
chiefs, and the carrier may also exer-
else her individual taste by replenish-
ing the puff with her favorite face
powder.
