Masquerading as the Red Cross

The veil which is adopted by the milliners
is more frequently seen in England than in
America. 1t is not quite as becoming as the
regulation bit of drapery, but it is used in
most coquettish manner by the girls who have
adopted it.
striking hat of this kind was worn at
afternoon garden party. The foundation is
of draped white satin closely bound around the
head and forming straight line just above tho
eyebrows. Over this satin is loose drapery
of white chiffon, not the kind that is used for
gowns, but thicker quality.
At the back the long veil is invisibly attached,
dropped down on the shoulders and then
brought over the arm, hanging almost to the
hem of the skirt in front. There is tiny
slash in the end of it. through which the fingers
may go, and by this trick the long, white
drapery is manipulated like butterfly's wing.

Ivory Satin for the
Wedding Gown

Even if the brides of this summer insist
upon telling each other often and rapidly that
they intend to be economical: in the purchase
of their trousseaux, they at least yield to
the temptation to have an extraordinarily
good looking wedding gown end several other
expensive costumes for the outfit.
Even though the weather is warm, there are
few brides, even in wartime who care to re-
linquish the traditional white satin gown. 1t
must be that each woman-child, from the era
die to maturity, has that kind of bridal frock
fixed in her sub-consciousness. Throughout all
her nursery days she dresses her dolls in
white satin to go to the altar; in her school
girl days she giggles and confides to her in

innate friends the plan for that sumptuous
frock. 1t may be said that she thinks more
of the gown than the man, for she always
sees herself at the apex of her career as a
radiant vision in tule and satin, slowly ap-
preaching a fower-banked altar.
Well, so be it. Some traditions are good
enough to last as long as the human race
dots the planet, and this is one of them.
Better marry badly than not marry at
ALL" is the unspoken adage of the women who
followed each other on this earth; and all
modern thought, all freedom from the shackles
of convention, all methods of wage earning,
independence and economic equality, have
not entirely ousted from the dark strata of
womans brain the idea that, after all, mar
riage is her best portion. When that idea

High Heeled Shoes Wear Badly

No woman needs to be told that shoes with
high French heels wear out sooner than those
with moderate or low heels. In the case Of the
French heeled shoe or slipper the weight of the
body comes on a very small area-a tiny heel
base and the ball of the foot. And what is
even more injurious to the shoe, the weight
comes in such way that there is tremendous
strain placed on the instep and sole of the shoe.
See how much sooner the French heeled shoe
begins to bulge over the sole than is the case
with the low-heeled shoe. where the weight Of
the body is carried more evenly.

dies. the race dies so, probably, the thought
is heaven born.
And now that it is wartime and weddings
are rushed and romances sometimes end at
the altar almost as soon as they have begun
in corner of a drawing room, the thought of
the white satin gown rides triumphant, until
it is finally expressed through the skill Of the
dressmaker.
Wartime simplicity, however, rules over
peace time extravaganza One might add
that extravaganza has been squelched in ap-
pearance more than in actually, for the de-
mure outfit that the brides of July and August
will wear at the summer resorts from New

that price is not low.

Making Your Shoes Last Longer
IF you make your shoes last long
time you buy shoes for somebody else

a large drug store and ask the druggist for
shoe polish that contained none of these in
furious substances.
The authority writing in the weekly news
letter recommends the use of castor oil, which
tends to preserve the leather. The shoes should
first be thoroughly freed from dust or mud. If
this does not come off with the brush, the shoes
should be washed with warm water.
They should then be placed on the shoe trees
to be partly dried and the castor oil should,
preferably, be added before the shoes have be-
come completely dry. They should then be
placed in warm, but not hot, place, and after
they are thoroughly dry they should be rubbed
with soft cloth. In many cases this will give
them enough Of polish. At any rate, 1t will

4 FTER a month Of the war in Paris the
~ temptation to wear red cross or
brassard of some kind on the arm was
so great that the government had to take
action.
The cap of the Red Cross nurse is the bit Of
vanity that is offered to the woman who is
looking for something outside of the common
place in her millinery. Undoubtedly she will
not be able to wear it long; the government
will stretch out its long arm to pull it in.
In the mean time, there Is no possible way
TO deny that the Red Cross turban Is the most
becoming hat that the majority Of young
women have exploited
The milliners have not adopted the exact
drapery which is prescribed for the nurses of
the Red Cross. This drapery, rs you well
know, drops from the side of the hat over the
shoulders.

The Russian Headdress
and the Plain Gown

1t is very satisfying, from an artistic sense
that the clever designer Of this season is max
ing severe wedding gowns without ornamen'
tation, when they are to be projected against
a background Of a Russian veil and headdress.
An unusual wedding frock has been made
of ivory satin, the smooth, heavy weave that
costs about SO a yard these days, with
simple peasant bodice that fastens in the
back and a narrow skirt that has bi. OF
handkerchief drapery at the hips. The sleeves
are long and slightly loose until they reach
the wrist, and the very slight decolletage
Of the satin.

Linseed Oil for Waterproofing

Linseed oil is recommended as good to make
shoes less liable to become water soaked. They
should be swabbed with the oil and allowed to
dry thoroughly. This, Of course, would not be
a suitable treatment for fine or thin shoes. But
then the sensible woman does not use fine or
thin shoes for the street or tramping. For
shoes built for outdoor service, whether tan or
black, this linseed oil treatment is excellent.
Every one who ever made suggestions as
to the care of shoes has called 1t poor economy

War weddings have become so much the
social pastime that the cynics insist
hundreds of girls are getting husbands who
might otherwise have remained old maids.
War has ever been productive of sentt
mental romance between the sexes. The tide
of affairs is violently turned, men and women
think of different things, separation seems
acute end marriage quickly follows. 1t is
a great temptation to add word about the
"repent at lesure"-but the future takes
care Of that one way or another
There is no one class so grateful for these
constantly occurring weddings as the dress
makers. They have been on the verge OF
nervous breakdown ever since war was de-
clared. They have seen themselves 60 out
of existence, and they have seen good clothes
become one of those Injuries that are sold at
infrequent intervals, like jewels and Chinese
rugs.

moro harm to the public welfare than tho

The Cotton Frock and
the Three-Cowse Dinner

If women want ginghams, then the dress
makers will give them ginghams extensively
made and trimmed, but still satisfying the
modern idea of cotton frock and three
course dinner, which is moro talk than sound
sense.
You can well imagine, therefore, that the
decision on the part Of the brides-elect to
have their weddings occur in the summer in
stead Of the autumn is flag OF happiness
upon which the dressmakers cast their eyes
in hope
The slogan that ought TO be put in every
woman's home is that economy during the
war must consist in not being wasteful Of
products of which there Is shortage. That
is all. The more money spent on things that
are plentiful and desirable, the more there
is in circulation for those who need it.
A muti-millonairess in New York who
boosted the other day at luncheon that she
had saved large amount of money on her
household by dismissng two maids and cut
ting the food down to three courses was
asked by another woman present what she
did with the money saved. She triumphantly
explained that she had always wanted a GER
tain number Of pearls to complete her string
and that she had bought these with the money
saved.

that an explanation came later. but an ex-
PLANTATION never catches up with an accusation,
and while the first weeks Of the hysteria
about clothes economy wended their way
through time, hundreds and hundreds Of girls
in New York lost their employment dress
makers on every side were forced to throw
their clothes into bargain heap and thou
sands Of dollars were probably lost by every ono
dealing In apparel. 1t was fatal move. 1t
came near having fatal result on tho COM
merce of the country.
1t was only natural for all the women who
were near the sales of gowns to take ad-
vantage Of that amazing opportunity to get
their clothes at half their value. The late
spring did not give women . chance to wear
the thin apparel they bought, but they felt
that their summer wardrobes were secure and
that they could turn their attention and money
to other things.
The dressmakers have doubled and turned
on their tracks In trying to get new clothes
for tho summer and to attract the coin out
of the purses Of even the economists by pre-
senting class Of costumery that varies from
tho spring models.

TIME whole question Of economy nowadays
ought to be approached in this way:
If we save, we should save to spend
for somebody else. We should not save to
hoard, for never before in the wide worlds
history was it so necessary for US to spend
freely-and wisely. So if you are appalled, by
the increasing price Of shoes, don't stop buying
shoes. Do your best to conserve your present
supply-but buy shoes for somebody else
somebody who perhaps could not afford them
at their present price.
If you want to do your best to keep your
present supply Of shoes in good order; If you
want to do your best to make your present
supply Of shoes last, first look to your equip
ment. For without the proper things to use in
taking care Of your shoes they will never be
we'll taken care of.
Here is a list Of things that you may have
on hand:
At least one pair Of shoe trees.
A good stiff brush for preliminary brushing.
Except for fine shoes 15-cent vegetable brush
will answer the purpose.
finer shoe brush to use to brush in the oil
or polish.
supply Of cloths Of various sorts. This
should be kept replenished. Old stockings,
washed and thoroughly dried, make excellent
shoe cloths.
A bottle Of castor oil-preferably with a
shaker top, such as BARRIERS use for bay rum or
alcohol.
small bottle Of linseed oil.
What the Government Says
In recent weekly news letter issued by tho
Department Of Agriculture there is this state
ment: "Many Of the common shoe polshes are
harmful to leather. All those which
contain sulphuric, hydrochoric or OK
alic acid, turpentine, benzine or other
volatile solvents have a tendency to
harden the leather and make it more liable to
break"
The authority who gives this information
does not tell us how to avoid these substances
In our shoe polishcs. Naturally enough, he
could not recommend any specific shoe polishes.
Probably the best thing TO do would be to 90 to
