BEAUTY CHATS
By EDNA KENT FORBES
- fragrant Accessories

Of strong perfume could ever over
come, for instance, the trace of
stale Precipitation.
Speaking Of perfumes, there is q
new little triHket In the shops that
will give ju1t that elusive whiR OF
sweetness that every woman de-
sires. It is q small ball that hangs
on the end Of q chain, and Is made
in silver, gilt, gold or enamel, &C
cording to its price. Inside is Q
tiny sponge, which one saturates
with ones favorite perfume, The
odor escapes through q little ili-
gree band running about the pen
3dant. These come at all sorts Of
prices.
Another good way to use per-
fume is to rub the body with toilet
water at the end Of the bath; the
skin absorbs and gives out Q deli
cate perfume. Another is to scat
ter dried flower petals in the bu-
reau drawers, 50 ones clothes take
up the sweetness; or to put tiny
sachet bags among ones articles
of clothing. Rubbing the neck and
hands with toilet water while
dressing makes pnet feel fresh and
dainty. Every time theShands are
raised to the face there Is the re-
freshing smell Of the water.
