NEW YORK. May 25.-- Noses

season."
Can't you just see this modish
note in the fall fashion Journals.
naturally since they have to taboo
powder in Paris we who make a
practice OF letting the Parisians
lead US by the noses in matters a la
mode will see to it that our noses
shine with the best of them.
Even If we don't feel like ape
ishly following latest war neeessi-
ty we may have to come to it per-
force. Since most Of our face pow
der is imported from France this
cutting off OF the rice supply as a
first aid to beauty is bound to make
US face a near powderless future
willy nilly.
Noses aren't the only feature in
the case to suffer from the powder
peril either. There is the whole face
to face the deprivation. It's one
thing to go around with your face
shining with happiness but quite an
other proposition to go around with
it shining with perspiration.
The cleaning coantenance offers
one tiny advantage to offset its
many drawbacks, however. Hence
forth when you pause to reflect you
won't have to paw madly through
your hand bag for your pocket mir
ror. Just turn to any handy face
and see yourself as in looking
glass
It really is the feminine nose, how
ever, that is due for the most awful
blow from this a1ti-powdor prob
lem. So powder ye noses while We
may and ponder the paradox that
war SHOULD near more powder for
the men and less for the ladies'.

Let the high cost Of clothing keep
on at its present rate of crescendo

We had better figure on 'em any
way. Nine and ten dollars fer good
low shoes. twelve and fifteen fof high

There won't be any other figure
