Two afternoon frocks of the simple
and unpretentious sort that prove most
useful are shown in the picture above.
One Of them is in taffetn silk in dark
blue and the other in wool tricotine in
the same color. They are both very
practical dresses and the tricotine VIII

a suit skirt and blouse, or separate
skirt and blouse, for all day wear 1t
is the sort Of dress that becomes use
full for the street or business, worn
with fur piece or separate coat.
The taffeta dress is one of several
popular models in which narrow
founces of the silk play an important
part In some of these the skirt is
series of overlapping flounces of scant
fullness. and each about five inches
wide. They are set to a foundation
and terminate just below the hip line.
Above this the plain taffeta is gath
cred into the belt at the waistline
Bodices I'm the several models vary,
some of them having no founces in
their finishing, and favorite for them
is the surplice style. In the dress
shown above the skirt is draped at the
sides and a group of three fiounces set
on diagonally suggests a tunic high
at one side. Above this group q sec
ond founce follows the same diagonal
line. The fad for the girdles of heavy

Amendment Lost
Last Peace Treaty

washington-The forty-six amend
ments attached to the peace treaty by
the foreign relations committee passed
into history Wednesday when the last
survivor of the group, proposal by
Senator Moses, republican, of New
Hampshire, to revise voting strength
in the league of nations, was consigned
to the discard in the senate by vote
of AZ to SO.
AS if gaining impetus by this &C
complishment the senate then upset
two more proposed textual changes in
the treaty brought in by individual
senators. One of them, presented by
Senator Sherman, republican, of Hi
nois, and proposing to write into the
treaty preamble reference to the
Deity, was laid on the table by vote
of 81 to 81. The other, sponsored by
Senator Johnson for voting inequality
in the league, was killed outright by
a count of 43 to IS.

Concerning the Care of Silk Hosiery.
Merchants inform their customers,
with good reasons, that the price of
raw silk is likely to advance. There
may be no shortage of 1t but the de-
mand has increased Immensely. Silk
has replaced much of the cotton for
merly used In many things that wom-
en- wear. as hosiery, undergarnents
and blouses, and much raw silk has
been diverted to these new channels,
where silk garments are in ever-in-
creasing demand. 1t Is said that wom-
en- will pay any price for silk and
nothing tempts them to extravaganza
more surely than silk hosiery. But 1t
has reached price now that puts 1t
almost beyond the reach of the woman
of limited means and good judgment.
The care of silk stockings is matter
to be concerned about and those who
manufacture them and merchants who
sell them recommend that women be
Informed as to means of prolonging
their service.
1t is said perspiration, dust and
stain from shoe Innings are the
chief enemies of silk hosiery. There
fore pair of silk hose should not be
worn second time without washing.
Also they should be washed very soon
after they are worn and not allowed to
wait for regular wash day to arrive.
Some women wash their silk hose
every time they wear them. For wash
ing use warm water and bland soap.
Dry indoors but not by artificial heat
Never place silk hose on steam radia-
tors to dry them.
Anything that breaks thread is fa-
tai TO silk hose, therefore they should
be put on carefully SO that the fine
threads will not be strained. Roll down
to the heel and insert the foot, then
pull the stocking carefully on. avoid
ing undue strain when bringing 1t over
the foot Rings which catch and
break threads will ruin any hose and

before inserting the hand in stock
Ing rings having sets should be re-
moved or turned SO that threads will
not be caught.
Stocking supporters should never
be fastened below the garter band
or drawn too tightly. If very
tight bend of the knee may break
threads from too much strain. They
wear much longer at the toe If bought
in half size larger than cotton hose
and toe nails need to be kept short.
The friction Of tight skirts with silk
hosiery wears 1t quickly. Rough places
In shoes, as eyelets, buckles and lac
ings sometimes are to blame for the
apparent poor wearing quality Of silk
hose because these catch and break
threads.
In hosiery as in shoes and other
things, several pairs, worn In rotation,
prolong the service Of each pair. Also,
1t Is better to darn them whenever q
thin place foretells hole than to wait
until they are worn through.
Some women say that all silk hosiery
should be washed before 1t is ever
worn ut all; whether this strengthens
it or not. it cannot do any harm 10 try
1t. 1t Is essential that warm water
and bland soap be used instead of very
hot water and ordinary laundry soap.
There is no particularly good reason
for wearing silk hosiery with high
shoes, if expense must be considered
especially in the winter time. But moth
ing can take the place of silk stock
ings with low shoes and slippers.
