Of tan-coIored silk. The deep cuffs are
made to match.
ing with balls of colored wool is
thrown recklessly over the background
and the effect always catches the eye.
Taking this as the foundation of the
work that is being done by the Paris
dressmakers, we can build ourselves
up into some sort of colorful picture
that will catch the attention wherever
we display ourselves.
A dark blue gown is nothing but
dark blue gown to those who know
nothing of the possibilities of combin-
ing it with something vivid but when,
against the midnight sky surface is
put a design of the Dakota Indians,
done in wildly colored wooden threads,
then the dark blue gown takes to
itself gayety which it has lacked.
1t is quite true that the designers in
Paris will also mingle opposing colors
through the use of double faced mate
rails, but they are evidently deter
mined to get the very best they can
out of the color scheme in dress by
using primitive embroidery against a
Somber surface.
CoIored Crystals Used.
In the new gowns there will be as
much colored crystal work as colored
worsted embroidery. 1t looks as though
the crystals will be given over to the
evening costumery and the worsteds
to the street clothes. Only a few of
the French dressmakers have put
sequins on clothes, but each and alb
have taken up cOlored bead work with
enthusiasm and exploited it with all
the frankness of vivid colors that is a
part of the American Indian as well as
his Southern ancestors.
Lanvin, for example, makes a black
satin gown for informal evening wear
that is nothing but series of straight
primitive panels falling over a slim,
tight, transparent skirt of periwinkle
blue chiffon. The edges of this skirt
are beaded and fringed with periwin-
kle crystals, in the fashion with which
Americans are peculiarly familiar. The
bodice Is slimly built, of black satin.
opening over a panel front of the blue
chiffon and crystals, and the long,
straight sleeves which are not full, but
hang far away from the arm like a
panel and are negligently caught into
the wrist by a tiny bracelet Of crystal
and chiffon, are made Of the blue
weighted with great tassels and FIRM
ges of periwinkle crystals.
Both Premet and Worth have adopt
ed a smashing touch of color on a
dark gown, in the way of a broad sash.
Premet ties hers in big bow at the
left side of the back, giving something
of the effect of a one-sided hustle, and
Worth takes a width of gorgeous ma
terial and makes low wasted girdle
of 1t on black or gray gown.
Smoke gray afternoon and evening
| frocks have flaming red, deep blue and
emerald green sashes, slightly below

or tulle, heavily fringed and tasseled
at the end with colored crystals.

This evening gown of shrimp pink

and silver lace. There are curious
peasant sleeves that resemble arm
bands. They are attached to the top
of the bodice. The necklace that holds
up the bodice is of silver cloth embroid-
cred with pink beads.
of somber tones. Even then there are
q thousand women who go astray to
q dozen who go right.
The helpful artists in dress will ex-
plain to women, with intelligent pa
thence, that any kind of color can be
managed in a costume If it is not
placed next to the skin. 1t is for this
reason, and this alone, that those who
deal III evening gowns have made an
artistic success in choosing the most
difficult color for the skin, if they so
wish, and then building a bodice of
tulle or crystals that rests against the
skin of the neck without doing 1T any
harm.
The fashion which was exploited In
Paris at the August openings and
which is already in America, of wear
ing a separate evening bodice with q
brilliant skirt. is sure TO succeed be-
cause it allows a woman TO Indulge

New York.-It Is often said that the
fashion experts dwell too much upon
line and material and are given to ig
noring the extraordinary value of col
ors.
The charge Is true. At least, the
truth of 1t dominates the majority of
dressmaking houses and is present In
the majority of women's minds. Color
Is In reality so vastly important that
it should rule every department of
dress. There are colorists who over
estimate its value to women, and they
are the ones who actually frighten the
majority into conservatism that
often borders on the ugliness.
The trouble with the artists lies In
the fact that they do not seem to have
any tenderness or courtesy toward the
coloring of the woman who is to wear
the garment. They assimilate and put
into juxtaposition colors that have ex-
traordinary beauty in themselves, but
when they are placed next to the hu-
man skin, hair and eyes, they kill what
nature has done. This is clarifying
the artist at the expense of the woman
In way that is not fair. The gown
is predominant; its beauty draws all
eyes. The woman is insignificant; the
only time she comes into the question
| is when the observers think how un-
attractive she looks In that glorious
frock.
Women In the Wrong Colors.
Thara &c fo, a.,
greater than the one offered by a gown
built out of an exquisite harmony of
colors. 1t appeals to every woman but
the one who is shocked by thread
of scarlet" as Mrs. Stuart puts 1t in
one of her admirable short stories.
Mind you, these women who feel that
drab colors are part of the respectable
ity of life and who have traditional
and mystic belief that the color of the
scarlet letter used by Hawthorne was
In itself an acknowledgment of sin,
are not out of existence. The Puritan
stock lives on, although it may be in
Montana, Texas or Alaska, Instead of
small New England village.
But aside of this we'll defined seq
ment in human society that looks upon
scarlet as the color of all that should
not be, and upon black and gray as
the colors that spell responsibility,
emotional limitations and the straight
and narrow path, there are thousands
of women who are attracted to colors
as goldfish to water. They find in the
brilliancy of tone kind of mental and
physical stimulation that the savages
probably feel.
SO it is that when the gifted artist
dressmakers, weavers and dyers throw
out to the world bits of colored bait,
as our forefathers did to the Indians
when they wanted furs, large seq
ment of women snap up the gifts with
delight.
Color as an Accessory.
The world is wiser and better
dressed when the great artists produce
glorious colors as accessories to gowns

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to feel
young - to do this you must watch your
liver and bowels - there's no need of
having a sallow complexion - dark rings
under your eyes -pimples - a bilious
look in your face dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from in
active bowels and liver.
DIR. Edwards, a welI-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable coE1-
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi-
tute for caIomel, are gentle in their action
yet always effective. They bring about
that e~xuberance of spirit, that natural
buoyancy which should be enjoyed by
everyone, by toning up the liver and clear
ing the system of impurities.

GAVIN IS IN TOWN.

J. H. Cam, superintendent of the Lisiansky Packing plant, ar rived yesterday on business. He re- ports that a number of his men are busy filling out their questionnaires and that this is delaying the work considerably. "We have more work than we can do right now in the limited time left to us before the herring and salmon runs start and every minute we are forced to spend in town means just that much loss to us," he said.
