Amber BIouses

Flesh pink chiffon and georpat+a
hlouses are being worn so universally
that women of exclusive taste have
turned to another tint, and that fin,
seems to be amber-not yellow and
not tan, but the indescribable golden
shade produced by sunlight shining
through clear amber. A simple tucked
hatiste blouse becomes touched by the
magic wand of amber, an exclusive
model worth several dollars. Amber
chiffon blouses cost still more, and
amber organdie trimmed with filet
lace is exceedingly distinguished in
price.

Best Material for snIin+n.

Galvanized wire netting is claimed
to be much superior to wood as a ma
terial for surgical splints. It ID
strong. light in weight, non-absorbent
and easily sterilized, and, unlike wood
and plaster, gives free ventilation. The
new splints are woven from wire SO
tempered that 1t can easily be pressed
into shape to be bound closely upon
the injured limb.
