"a thusiastic over sealing wax.
IA Even the butcher, the baker
and the candlestick maker,
aside from their first natural surprise
at having their bills paid at all, are
doubly stunned at receiving their
checks in envelopes dashingly sealed
with monogrammed splotches of vivid
wax
You see, the dear girls are practic-
ing on everybody just to perfect their
art of making good impression. Nat
urally by the time they write to Percy
or Harold they want to make per-
fectly stunning impression, and only
practice makes perfect, as the copy
books tell us.
Since, paradOXically, in fashion it is
always the oldest that is the newest,
at the present moment it is no wonder
that the gentle art of sealing CORE
spondence has returned to stick. Cleo
patra used to finish off her long papy-
rus rolls of love talk to Mark Antony
with a COB of hot sealing wax duly
stamped with her royal scarab seal.
There is no doubt that Eve her.
self scratched little stone billets-doux
to Adam when he was away for
week end and finished them up with a
flourish of red clay on which was
stamped her mark, carved on the tooth
of dinosaurs.
Great seals of state, government
seals, royal seals and pontifical seals
have always been the last word, as
'twere, so what more fitting than that
,the last word of fashion be seal also?
With the lovely new paper embossed
with a monogram or crest in con-
trasting or darker tone in the upper
left corner 1t is a last artistic touch to
seal the envelopes lined with the same
color as the embossing, with the same
shade of sealing wax in which the i'm
print of the smart crest or monogram
is set
Buff colored paper monogrammed, en-
velope lined and sealed in golden brown,
is n favorite color scheme, as pearl
gray combined either with a darker
gray silver or purple.
An attractive Wedgwood effect Is
obtained with blue paper bordered in
tiny line of white with white mono
gram and sealed with white wax. Let
tuce green paper combined with the
white in the same manner is also
charming and refreshing, although apt
to have cooling effect even on an
ardent swain.
OF course the perfection of the color
scheme is further carried out by hav-
ing the tapers where one melts the
wax partake of the same chosen hue,
and the quill pen wherewith one writes
must always perforce be colored like
wise.

Avalanche of Pockets.

Pockets started to be the fashion a
couple of seasons ago. No one looked,
however, for the avalanche of pockets
which seem to have tumbled on to
dresses for all times of day, on sport
coats and dresses they are so large
that they are really draped on to the
sides of the garment. They are mostly
patch pockets, the tops adorned with
a narrow fur band. In one or two mod
els the whole pocket is of fur like the

The Slender Throat.

Too much flesh on the neck is a fatal
bar to beauty. 1t is far simpler to put
flesh on a wOman's throat than to take
it off, for If the tissues are fed with a
good skin food, such as cocoa butter,
the neck will soon begin to round out
On the other hand, only exercise of the
most vigorous sort will reduce the size
of the throat. For a tendency to a
double chin and to tighten the muscles
which have become loosened, try this
simple eXercise Throw the head bac.
as far as it will go, drawing the mus
cles tight. Now turn the head slowly
as far to the right as you can and then
to the left. Repeat ten times, increas-
ing as you become accustomed to the
strain. Massaging the neck with a
piece of ice is excellent for keeping the
flesh firm.
